“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He therefore feels highly upset if he does not accept all of my views as he understands them, and makes it a point to repeat that rebellion now in a different way.

The search for truth and the fear of leading people astray are the primary points here. In the past any intuitive thoughts he felt but could not prove were put into his fiction. This protected him from censure, both from within and without.

One letter from someone who wrote saying that The Seth Material contributed to a nervous breakdown is a case in point.

Some of my material is difficult to accept intuitively and intellectually at one time. You may intuitively grasp a point and intellectually not understand it, or the other way around. But Ruburt insists that he intellectually and intuitively understand each point, and agree with it, or it puts him in the position of publicizing ideas when he is not a hundred percent certain of their validity, and he considers this to some degree dishonest. If he is wrong and people follow him, where is he leading them?

When Venice’s friend committed suicide some time ago, this affected him deeply, for a session had been held and it did not stop the suicide. His symptoms at that point deepened. He greatly enjoys the psychic and intuitive experience itself, the going ahead, but he becomes worried after that point as to how the ideas will be used and interpreted.

The emotional beliefs therefore could not be reached. A concerted effort should be made to gain the support of the part of him who understands. Your own reasonable arguments there will help. Point them out. Bring up arguments for that side. Part of this has to do also with the fact that his complete support in St. Vincent’s Catholic orphanage was carried on by a religious order. (For over two years.)
