“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Realize that each time you replace a negative thought or feeling by a positive one, this is like making a correction in a painting. Soon you will be able to do this automatically, but in the beginning conscious effort is needed.

You must be systematic until your reactions become fairly automatic. You must therefore replace negative patterns with positive ones. As you know, the negative patterns bring results. Now give us a moment.

It is quite possible you see for you to have results tomorrow, but it takes time to paint the picture from your idea. You know you will do the painting in physical terms, and you know you will have results in this endeavor, and excellent ones. It is very important that Ruburt, here, change his attitude toward his physical body – his own image of it.

Now you often projected negative thoughts, not being able to accept the items in the spirit in which they were given. You felt it made you inferior to accept such gifts. This is negative to begin with. You (pointing to me) wanted to feel aloof, and I tell you, superior. There is a knack in accepting and receiving. Your attitude was a rejecting one in general—that is, it was a reflection of a deeper pattern of negative thinking.

You mentioned this to Ruburt recently. I wanted to point out the important point however, the rejection on your part, as well as the attraction or the reason for the offering. Remember what I said about limitations. There is more here. Give us a moment. Behind it a fear of being taken advantage of when you accepted anything from another. But the habit of rejection, generally applied, (underlined) is a limiting one.

You must still realize how practical these ideas are. You should realize it, for you can see their effect when they are used negatively. This is the way you build your life, whether you realize it or not. This is one of the main purposes of my material, that you construct your own physical reality, and that it is a replica of your ideas. For this does not apply within your system only, but beyond it.

It is not I give you a spool of thread, and you give me a spool of thread, and we are even. You give to one in your way, and something may be given to you of a different nature by an entirely different person, and yet it is a result of your own giving. Therefore do not limit the flow of energy in such circumstances.

That is why I told you that the word abundance was such a good one. Give us a moment. (Pause.) In your prayer episodes deal with Ruburt’s health, and do not divide your efforts. Generally speaking however see a free, abundant flow of energy between you and your environment. I will need to give you more specific directions however, and for these I will wait until your next session.

Concentrate on the health issue in your exercises for now. Let your thoughts flow naturally during the day. They will of their own accord touch upon various issues such as work, finances and so forth. When they do then correct any negative thoughts with positive ones.

The healing exercises will automatically increase spiritual abundance. When you feel you are ready, then the two daily prayer periods should be retained with a change of focus, that will take care of other issues. You need not concentrate them upon one issue or another. I will give you suggestions to use, and affirmations that will show results in all aspects, financial and otherwise. The change in your attitude will automatically begin to bring results in any case, and in all areas. Now does that answer your question?
