“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This brief session was held to help deal with Jane’s recurring tooth symptoms. We knew they were related to Eleanor Friede and Rich Bed, etc., as detailed before. But their increasing frequency alarmed us considerably today. We learned much with the pendulum today, and kept hoping we had finally unearthed the symptoms’ cause. Each time the symptoms would return; today, after breakfast, then lunch, etc., so that we spent the whole day coping with them. I finally asked Jane after lunch if she could have a session regardless of whether she was bothered [as she was at the time of the session, to a lesser degree].

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.

Another note: He would be better off, you see, if he yelled and screamed in a quite undignified fashion. Your badminton has been dispensed with. It allowed for some unconscious translation of such feelings outward into action. And that is the end.

(Some interesting notes: We thought the session helped, and that the symptoms would vanish. In the middle of the afternoon Jane had a return of them to a lesser degree. We again used the pendulum, and learned a few new things. All of the reasons had to do with Eleanor and Rich Bed, and Adventures, Tam, Jane’s feelings of being cut off by Eleanor and Dick, etc. Seth’s new book was exonerated.

(I was too upset to give suggestions in the proper way after the session. Jane typed out a couple of pages. The last paragraph was new: she felt she couldn’t pressure Eleanor because Dick was publicizing Jane’s books. We hadn’t asked the pendulum this question. I suggested a two-week deadline; then Jane would ask for the return of Rich Bed if she’d had no word from Eleanor. While Jane used the pendulum I gave some suggestions. Jane took a nap while I finished cleaning up the living room.

(Jane dressed for class, and the symptoms didn’t worsen. She told me at a break in class that after the first few minutes she began to feel much better. During the evening as I worked in the kitchen, I heard her sing beautifully in Sumari several times; Seth spoke also, much more forcefully that he had this afternoon. Jane also told me that she liked class—we had discussed her dropping it soon—and that she intended to be “freer” in it from now on; and that the tooth thing would be conquered. It seems we learned a lot today. The fear we consciously experienced has been very instructive.)
