“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(An excellent session, deleted from the record. Read the whole thing often. On Jane’s childhood, fear of aggression; religion; my role, etc. Ego and health and illness. Illness not natural, etc. Psychic abilities and fear of ridicule.)

Many of the points you have made to Ruburt lately have been well taken, and were more important than you realized. To you they seemed rather obvious, and trivial, almost. Now Ruburt’s ego had been hit over the head, so to speak, so many times in his childhood that it became very sensitive, developing a rigidity out of self-protection.

Now regardless of the nature of our sessions, their legitimacy and my own reality, only certain peculiarly gifted personalities would be able to make consistent contact, to obtain such information over a period of time. Only a certain kind of personality could find balance between spontaneity and discipline. Literally, as you recognize, a tremendous creative endeavor is required. A personality embarking upon such pursuits had to allow for various emotional and psychic elements from early childhood.

(“I have often wondered: why do such childhood experiences have such lasting effects through an adult life, that may be many years longer?”)
