“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(1: See page 362. She verified Seth’s statements about Jim Crosson’s worries about holding an audience, etc. 2: See page 362. Betty Taylor may soon change her position, moving to Washington DC from New York City to do reporting coverage for various magazines. 3: page 362. Betty Taylor nearly did not call Jane, as Seth mentioned. It develops that another speaker, thought not available, may, or has, change[d] his mind.

I suggest that under the circumstances, this time Ruburt step aside and let Jim Crosson have his day. He needs it badly, and I have a note for Miss Taylor: it will hurt Jim Crosson badly if he does not have a part in the program. He needs to feel, particularly after retirement, that he is looked up to and needed, and can hold his own and attract an audience.

Ruburt will address the group in any case (pause), and many times in the future. Jim Crosson does not have that much time. (Pause.) Ruburt should make no future hard decisions as to what he will and will not do, but give the intuitive self freedom in such cases.

Ruburt will do much better on his own in a program, but should definitely not shunt Jim Crosson aside, for he is very vulnerable to slights. He will also do very well, lecturing on that occasion of the 20th. Better in fact than usual, and he, at least, will consider it one of the high points of his career.

(Pause.) The entire future involvement with that group was incipient on the day that Jim Crosson read Ruburt’s first book.
