“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I asked if Seth would discuss Tam’s dream of January 1, 1973; her cold symptoms dating from last October; and the letter Seth has promised to dictate for correspondents. We played badminton today also. Both of us had many interruptions, and resolved to do something about this. We planned to get up much earlier tomorrow, for one thing.)

They must therefore be duly faced each day until they normally diminish into normal daily concern. Do not forget, in whatever way you choose to use it, the importance of reinforcing his sense of worth, despite what he does. The charge built up, for him (underlined) about time and work, is masking of course his fear of not achieving as he wants to. This is aside from normal practical considerations of time.

I suggest now, for now (underlined), that you each do arise at 6:30, and take a good nap before dinner. I suggest this because it will help you both with your work. It is a simple method. It will also however give you freer psychic time in your nap.

This has to do in your terms with reincarnational relationships that I purposely have not given you.

Tell him I am smiling, but I am telling him to trust himself and not look to others for readings. They will only confuse him. He will be connected with Seven and a movie. Some of his later writing will deal with me, with Ruburt’s class, but in ways he does not suspect. I have great affection for him. His dream work will (underlined) show fruits, and he and Ruburt are involved in dreams together, though they do not recognize themselves in those dreams.

The class was important. (As Jane said also.) Because he now decided to do his own thing also, he was free to do his psychic thing also—hence today the out-of-body experiments conducted. (Quite successfully.) Once he saw himself simply (underlined) as a psychic, he became prey to all of the conventional psychic ideas, afraid of the sexual-demon characteristics connected with out-of-bodies, for example.

Seeing himself doing his own thing short-circuits such unnecessary reactions. The experiments conducted unconsciously also spread energy through the physical body where it was needed, and was therapeutic.

Now you have also been afraid that you could not do your own thing on your (underlined) own, so you acquiesced to the situation. You understood, though you would not face your understanding. Ruburt’s dilemma was quite clear to you. You felt you could not push him until he was ready.

(Almost with a laugh:) He resented that you did not push him in that particular matter. You understood however Adventure’s meaning and significance, and helped him when you realized he was ready to accept it, by your suggestion. Do you follow me?

(“You mean by my pendulum?” When I learned not long ago that Jane’s symptoms were caused by her fear that her psychic work was not letting her do her own writing—that she was failing as a writer, that she wanted success as a writer first, not as a psychic, etc.)

I do indeed. The apartment situation was another symbol for moving—the physical one of impasse. It had to be faced on that level physically in your cases, before the other problem of mobility could come completely to light.

Now. You did not feel free to do your own thing until Ruburt felt free to do his, because you felt he was helping out so financially. This is at one level.

The money motive did help Ruburt in other areas, and led him to greater understanding while he always knew it had to be dispensed with. Do you follow me?
