“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, good evening.

For the record, again, I suggest the running and the up and down movements. These are imperative, and tell him I said so. Now I have two simple exercises. I want these done every day. They take hardly any time, but will be most effective.

Now I want you, in the same way, to picture his arms straight in normal position, and follow the same procedure. Is this clear?

Now each of you may do the same exercises for yourself also if you want to. The important thing is to do it easily. Ruburt can picture, mentally, your straight penis, more easily than he can his own arms. When you do this sort of thing, one for the other, your love is added, gives extra force; and the love between you is relatively uncluttered, and can be directed well in this fashion.

Any impeding subconscious ideas are bypassed. Now. The book that you have just received from Prentice (Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain), will have an important effect upon Ruburt, and a beneficial one, helping to increase his confidence in his own abilities.

The present notes he has written to himself are highly effective, and he should follow them and the procedure they suggest. What he felt this week, and in beginning his book, was the rousing of his energies. Then he can direct them. Now when he feels a sense of exhilaration—he knows the subjective feeling I refer to—then have him direct it, that energy, to his arms.

You have been holding on to your own symptoms while Ruburt still has his. They are like notes to yourself, reminding you that things are still not as good as they should be. Tell yourself that you can help yourself and Ruburt far better without the disease caused by the symptoms. Once they were reminders that you also had a part to play in the entire situation. You accept that fact now, and therefore no longer require them. The need for them is over. Once they were meant to promote your psychological understanding, but now they can only impede your progress; and you are also slightly resentful at Ruburt, feeling that he is somewhat responsible, by still maintaining his symptoms, for your own.

You do not like to believe that an individual can be so influenced, because of your background. This makes you want to isolate yourself, and also prevents you from benefiting from suggestions yourself, and benefiting others through your own suggestions in certain areas. In other areas you accept and utilize the nature of suggestion. (Pause.) Now give me a moment.

Now. You are working toward several breakthroughs in your own painting—actually a three-way breakthrough.

One intuitional discovery will open into two others. Dissatisfaction, creative dissatisfaction, triggers in you new intuitive developments, and this one will be fairly important. On your relationship now, yours and Ruburt’s: unconsciously you inspire each other.

The inspirational aspects however can be strengthened and magnified on both of your parts. The positive approach on your part, mentioned earlier, can indeed be interpreted in such a light. You feel with some justification, that Ruburt in his own concern forgets your lingering symptoms; and he should make an effort now to use his abilities to help rid you of these.

Now I do not mind your chasing the cat (Seth’s voice was suddenly loud; I had taken a swipe at our cat Willy with my notepaper, when he was about to jump up into Jane’s lap), but chasing my foot is another matter… this energy is then picked up by the families of the students, and their lives indirectly benefited.

I had intended to chat with you for a while. Now that you are back with steady sessions once more, I need not use every session for dictation as long as I know my book is doing well. I thought you might perhaps miss the more easy give and take, if every session was dictation—though of course most sessions will be.
