“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

For some time I have given you much advice, many suggestions, knowing full well that some would go by the board. Enough of them would be followed however to provide some kind of inner program, that would at least head you in the proper directions.

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.

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.

Tam received the basic message, though in the morning. He made several distortions, substituting you (RFB) and the book I suggested (Through My Eyes) rather than Ruburt and Adventures. He did this to give himself time on a conscious level to deal with the situation. Some time ago, after Seven, he mentioned my book, my new book, to Ruburt, and Ruburt said he did not want to contract trance material ahead of time, so Tam let it rest.

Both of them knew on other levels that Ruburt needed a backlog of chapters, and the book well in progress, so Tam simply went along, as Ruburt did, until the time came when Ruburt realized he had full confidence, the book was good, and that Adventures had other purposes.

And my congratulations for getting through a hard time.

(“Yes.” Not that I consider we’re through the hard time yet, by any means.

Ruburt was quite conscious all the time about the reasons behind the symptoms. He just wasn’t ready to face it. This makes my book extremely valid.

You were highly impatient, then. At the same time you knew that once you did commercial work for money as a young man, quite happily. It fulfilled definite needs. At any level of your artistic development thus far, you could have cashed in with some application, and been, you felt, betrayed by money and acclaim as a certain level of development.

You felt it would be such (underlined) a temptation that you might give in. All the time you realized that your proper way necessitated deeper understandings, and held out.
