“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The aggravation of sinuses began before your trip to Rochester, when Eleanor spoke of Rich Bed. (Eleanor wrote Jane about this October 4, 1972, praising Rich Bed extensively. See the deleted session of November 13, 1972, etc.) I gave you some material on that—Ruburt taking on cold symptoms as given in that material.

The sinus became aggravated again Ruburt did the presentation for Eleanor, and to his way of thinking was, at least, immediately put off by Eleanor—no decision in official terms.

All of the fears are based of course on the belief that Ruburt must write to justify his existence. The basic insecurity, in other words.

Now. Another tact necessary. Handle it as given above, building up inner security. Then make sure that Ruburt’s fears are vented, that he acknowledges them consciously and does not attempt to intellectualize them away. They do have their own validity.

You think such fears foolish; Ruburt does, so he tried to talk himself out of them while at the same time pretending that they do not exist. They are unvented, then. He is ashamed then to discuss them with you also.

It is important that you work from both ends. If Ruburt simply wrote down each day items that concerned him honestly, and discussed them with you, this would be of benefit. Then they could be met.
