“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. Good evening.

Without going into reincarnational information just now: from this life Ruburt got into the habit of not physically expressing emotion. Some of the reasons were given in other sessions. He was demonstrative, but not demonstrative.

Now give us a moment. I suggest therefore that he make an attempt to express his moods, both joyful and sorrowful, in physical terms through body motion. Encourage him in physical activities. Even small successes, as he sees definite improvements, will be of great inner value. Try a simple game of pitch and catch, for example, but some physical release in terms of playful activity. Even slow dancing, for example, until he can manage fast dancing, but the use of bodily rhythm.

A sensible look at the picture therefore will show him that he is indeed far better than that feared image. Again, there must (underlined) be a concentration upon the health that he does have, and the freedoms he does enjoy, for these will lead to greater freedoms. This is his end of the picture right now, and what he should do.

Now. He is onto something with his theory of Aspects, but the theory is not as yet fully developed. What he has so far will lead even further. When he types up the material received so far he will make other new connections.

Look over the notebook of last summer. The methods used then will work with far greater effectiveness now because of the other information you have received, and the necessary changes in your relationship that have occurred.

Now. The emphasis you see should be on doing things, without worrying about how they will be done. On the end, not the means. This is where Ruburt gets confused. That is extremely important.

A small example. If he wants new curtains or clothes, then the stimuli automatically activates the body to perform. Now you have seen that in operation. When he concentrates instead upon how he is going to get to the store, he is concentrating on the means.

A concentration upon his work, and not upon the symptoms. It is extremely important that he understand this, and break that circle. We want a concentration outward now, away from the self, so that the self can heal itself. Again let him paint, and consistently. He will find himself standing up at an easel.

The concentration away from the self is the most important point I can give him now. The concentration should be on work and pleasure and activities. Have him read this; and I expect him to follow these suggestions as well as you followed the information I gave you. (Emphatic.)

The class activity is good for him now. Both classes, and the changes he has made are beneficial. He needs the relationship with people. Now give us a moment.

I should also open up some further experiences with both Seth II, Cyprus, and Oversoul Seven. I am letting our book go for now, but we will be returning to it and with Ruburt’s full consent. I would like to add here that had he taken my early suggestions, he would not have become involved with spiritualistic literature, or groups or individuals.

Now. Tell Ruburt I said this:

He is physically capable of performing now with much better flexibility than he does, and with comparative physical ease and comfort, at this time. He has therefore simply hypnotized himself into believing he cannot.

There is a distinction. Now. Using the body as it is now, with its abilities, will automatically help to readjust such physical problems as the bent legs. Do you see the difference?

The muscles will cease fighting each other. Now I do expect all of this to be followed. I am laying down therefore definite suggestion. A program of sorts, and I will expect progress reports this time. In other words, tell him, I am not giving the session for my benefit but for his, and not to hear myself talk. And I know I have your cooperation.

If you will think of this, both of you now, and you must, as a creative challenge, this will be of great benefit. Now give us a moment.
