“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(A carbon of the first part of the session is attached here, however, since the whole session applies to the question of Jane’s symptoms, etc.

(Break at 10:09. Jane was well dissociated, she said. I read a few paragraphs from the first part of the session to her, since I thought them very important. The material led me to suggest some alternatives to our present routine and attitudes; Jane said the suggestions, which were only speculative at this stage, frightened her, but I did not intend this of course. I was only floundering around trying to find ways of relieving the symptoms, even if this meant suspending ESP classes, or the sessions, or whatever, while we tackled the problems at hand.

The symptoms were the result of strain, then. While they still allowed him to pursue those activities in which he was interested, the conscientious nature, the questioning mind that led him to investigate psychic realities, and that led him to learn so much, did not change overnight. They were of much too long standing.

(“Do ESP classes aggravate his symptoms?”)

(“But the symptoms have intensified.”)

The other information I have given you about the symptoms also applies here, in the deleted sessions, since your return.

There are also electromagnetic changes in the atmosphere, constantly affecting the body, and if the body is wearied for whatever reason it is more sensitive to these. Take a poor day, a dark day for example, a poor habitual reaction, a handful of negative suggestions, and some symptoms, and it does not add up to much.
