“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Tam Mossman and his fiancée Eve had been our guests over the past weekend, May 2—4; he had heartily approved the work Jane has completed on the Seth book and we thought that this belief might have something to do with Jane’s very relaxed state. Jane said no conscious suggestions, that she was aware of, had been involved today or this evening. Tam is Jane’s editor at Prentice-Hall, Inc.

He has overemphasized limitations in the past, of all kinds, and this has led him to deny many of his own positive characteristics—this concentration upon the negative. Now some of this he picked up from you, and then exaggerated. Much of this attitude in passing now.

Now. I told you in our last session that the inner self will not take over entirely. In this particular case built-up negative attitudes of years’ standing set up negative patterns that prevented the most creative parts of the self from using their natural potential.

Now there are distinctions to be made. The negative patterns, many of them, came from conscious deductions made about the nature of reality. They seeped down into the personal subconscious layer, causing blockages here that prevented even deeper areas of the self (pause) from giving necessary help.

The subconscious—personal subconscious layer – became blocked with debris that seeped down from the conscious layer. The personal subconscious then acted like a lid, blocking off the healing energies that came from below. Now your book uses the term subconscious to cover the whole inner self. Those healing abilities, that exuberance and love of life, is from a deeper layer of the self.

It does indeed; and it continues along all lines available to it. If it is cut off in one area it will find another. Now the reversal of the negative trend has already taken place, so openings are available. But both of you are overanxious, and even you concentrate too much upon what seems to be the enormity of the difficulty, or Ruburt’s present predicament.

As far as the Tuesday episode, in such a case recognize that negative attitudes entered in. Take it for granted they are already dissolving, and the impediment was temporary. Do not let such an episode throw you into panic. Ruburt is aware of certain thoughts that helped cause the episode, and he will tell you.
