“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Her own attitude is highly negative. The boy picks up from her now that he cannot be expected to do well.

Earlier she had a greater determination, a stronger faith that helped bring him through. With the years however she has become discouraged, and telepathically he knows this.

She must in her mind begin to change the circumstances. She should do this mentally. The two books that Ruburt (Jane) usually suggests should be read and used by her. The boy should be encouraged to continue painting, regardless of the fact that she knows nothing about it. Particularly he should be urged to use color.

In Greece the young man was a senator, extremely brilliant, and emotionally immature and cold. He was very quick and impatient, particularly with the mental incapacity of others, yet he played upon their weakness in that regard. This was in Athens, and there was also a connection with Cato (pause), and a Hebrew background.

(The dictionary tells us that the Stoic philosopher and statesman, Cato, was a Roman, and lived from 95—46 BC. He was called Marcus Porcius the Younger; his great grandfather, Marcus Porcius the Elder, was a Roman statesman who lived from 234—149 BC.

He is able to give his emotional abilities far greater freedom. In all of his existences he has been of an extravagant nature, impetuous, choosing extravagantly-opposite experiences. He did not choose to probe lightly or delicately, for example, various areas of experience, but chose instead to intensify each life.

He is not unhappy, particularly if no one reminds him of what they think he is missing. She must have faith that the life was chosen for a reason, and then the reasons will become at least understandable to her.

I do not mean to scold her, but in her well-meaning sympathy she can hold down the native joy that he feels, when left to his own standards of achievement.
