“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Ruburt is attempting to rid himself of poor habits of years’ duration. He is progressing. Certain incidents, trivial in themselves, will at times carry a tremendous charge, not necessarily because he is repressing thoughts about the particular incident, but because the incident recalls unresolved past issues that he has psychically associated with it.

It may seem that response to a particular episode is out of all proportion in intensity, but attached to it may be past material which does carry a heavy charge. Now Ruburt can learn to use his subjective feeling also as an aid in this manner. He should not identify with it to begin with. It would help him if he could imagine it as having a shape or form, or a weight.

When Ruburt is in good spirits and physical condition, at the end of the day let him note down, briefly, what he has been doing and thinking about. Let him use those days as models, the focus of attention being upon them rather than upon the poor days. The idea being to reproduce those daily activities and thoughts that naturally reinforce his strengths. He should not overanalyze, but generally speaking keep such days in mind as models to follow.

If a specific local symptom arises, it will help if Ruburt says to himself: “Of course I know the reason for this; it will come to me as I go about my work.” Simply that attitude would bring about an improvement. His attitude is often: “Now what in God’s name caused this?”
