“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The meeting with your Seagull friend was significant for many reasons. Symbolically, Seven (Oversoul) was important because the book showed Ruburt the wedding of psychic ability and creative ability, emerging as fiction and art form, and his baby.

There are reasons, reincarnationally, for this caution. Nevertheless, the point has now been reached where he does realize that the basic self is good, and the abilities are being put to good purpose. The realization has to do with results from the sessions mentioned, and the ensuing events.

He was at one time possessed of a great desire for power, and led, in those terms now, many astray. It is for that reason that he so fears the false prophet idea. Give us a moment. Is your hand tired?

He used the sword—another reason, incidentally, why he does not want to hurt anyone now—and the magic of words, and was involved in wars against Christendom. He knew Pete (Stersky, a member of Jane’s ESP class) who was then a dancer, a woman.

The two of you were exceedingly close in male comradeship—far more intense than any known now in your time. In your terms he was—in your terms from this standpoint—he was a fanatic against the Christians for religious, political and economic reasons. He feared Rome and hated it. It was no coincidence that Father Traynor used to read Don Juan of Austria (in the Catholic Church the young Jane attended), for they knew each other at that time.

Now this is one of the reasons why he was so worried in this life, about leading people away from Christendom, for he did it before.

All of those involved in the Ottoman Empire had their reasons therefore, tell Ruburt, and the victims acquiesced to the basic assumptions of the time, as much as you and Ruburt did. The energy released was fantastic. It also involved the opening of many channels through which sheer vitality was made accessible and served as an impetus against which man could judge his progress.
