“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. Good evening—

In reference to my book’s theme now, the basic dilemma as well as its reasons and development, was quite available in Ruburt’s conscious mind all of that time. He chose not to deal with it however because he was not ready to face the problem, he did not feel himself capable. He was not ready to make the move.

Adventures served as the vehicle that brought to light many of his feelings against the psychic field, or rather his part as he saw it in it. It was necessary and served a purpose. One purpose was his realization that such a book, for now, even at his best, with personal orientation, was not his cup of tea. Much of the material in it later will be published.

(9:30.) Certain ideas he has now are in a stage of transition still, a necessary stage. The tooth was meant to get his attention, to make him realize the importance of acting now. There will be no more great trouble with it. In a few days it will have completely disappeared. It is of great importance now however that he write down his thoughts as begun each day. It is not that he need concentrate on negative ideas. These are normal feelings and thoughts that gained such charge only because they were collected about the unfaced dilemma; whether or not he could make it on his own, or could afford the opportunity to try.

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 suggestion is for the present. The cold will also now be vanishing, as I tell you that following it will be the other symptoms. This only however if the writing habit is kept up, and the other suggestions.

Now give us a moment. (Pause at 9:38. Fast pace.)

Now Seven will have its own following. It will become a mass product, however, and Tam will be involved as he has already been involved with Seven.

Now you two are in the clear, with the basic dilemma out, being acted upon, worked through and faced; but the habits must also be combated by Ruburt writing out those thoughts and feelings daily. The badminton important as given, as trivial as that may seem.

Now. I could not force Ruburt to face the dilemma until he felt he was ready to handle it—then he would see it as he does, now, as a challenge. All the other reasons given fit in. They were behind the reasons that he did not feel he could face the dilemma, but they partially masked it, also.

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.

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.

The physical changes however are supremely important, as physical materializations of inner ones. There are stresses now in terms of contracts and money, that Ruburt was not willing to face before. They are apparent now, and not masked. That is why the writing, as given, is important—that they be daily vented.

The Gallery (magazine) article will now be a great success. And so will Monroe’s visit, as it would not have been earlier. I bid you a fond good evening.

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.
