“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Before the session, in line with our new way of thinking, Jane and I said that we could have six main categories in our lives: work; finances; living quarters; health; mobility; spiritual contentment, which would include helping others. The idea being that positive thought within these broad outlines would pay rich dividends.)

But more than this, the fact itself of belief cleanses the psychic and spiritual channels of negative debris. Often in the past you worked against each other unwittingly. When one managed an overall psychic change for the better, the other would negate it through discouragement or negative patterns. Now as a unit your separate realities obviously form a larger combined unit in which you operate. Two of you working together can do seven times more than one operating alone. Do you follow me?

Your trip (Sunday, April 13; we drove to Cortland, NY) was beneficial, but it was impeded by negative thoughts of Ruburt’s, and also to some degree by the fact that you pointed out his symptoms without reminding him that the inner self could and would minimize them. You need to remind him when he forgets.

I knew you would learn. Now. It is basic patterns of thought that help you or impede you, psychological colorations of thought that form the general overall pattern of your physical reality. One thought alone seems to matter little, and yet it is part of a characteristic pattern of inner behavior, and as such has its place either in bringing you freedom and abundance, or in denying you freedom and abundance.

In your particular circumstances it was understandable that a while would elapse before you would put these truths to work for you in physical terms. To do so however increases their spiritual help also, for you see the results and then you have to realize that the truths are real.

You did not want to give of yourself to the world because you felt that this was a natural reaction, picked up from your father. You would paint, but not share. When you realize that health and abundance are natural, and illness and limitation unnatural, then you are free, free to develop, to use what you have, to give and take.

They exaggerated the sensory stimuli. Had your attitude been different the stimuli would have been so minimized that noise never would have bothered you. Literally, your environment would not have included it.

This does not mean you cannot have a home where there is no traffic, and where it is still. If you persisted upon focusing on noise rather than quiet however, you would find no quiet regardless of the circumstances. It would obviously be ridiculous to settle in the middle of a city like New York if you valued quiet above all things, so common sense operates. Yet even in the midst of that noise you could find quiet if that was your reality. There are several more points I want to make, rather important ones.

In his imagination, let Ruburt feel the sense of joy and release he would feel if he had run down the back stairs easily and joyfully. He need not see himself do so, but feel his emotions as if this had already happened not once but many times.
