“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(10:08.) Now. Please do not interrupt. If you have questions I will answer them later this evening, and if you want you can have an extra session for book dictation.

Ruburt feels that he has a dragon by the tail. He is damned if he will let go and yet he is afraid to pull harder. You can specifically say that this has to do with what you call your psychic work, but even before “it” began he was aware of that energy of his, concerned about using it, focusing it, delighted with it, and afraid of it at the same time.

(10:22.) Greater recognition might help at a certain level, but this is not the answer. The fact that psychic books, so-called, do not give him what he thinks of as conventional literary praise is annoying but not basically pertinent.

He has been using the static of physical discordance in the same way. Now many creative people unfortunately do the same thing. On an entirely different level, one of your old favorites, Peggy Lee, has severe physical difficulties that are meant actually to contain her energy and force it along certain lines only.

Now I am telling you facts. Do not put terms like fortunate or unfortunate onto them.

It is the effects you do not like, and that is all.

(11:10.) A less determined personality would have drawn back, shriveled, and denied its own abilities. Ruburt did not do that, and you would not have acquiesced to that, so your joint and private reality does not include it.

I want him to come over here (to the living room), make his coffee or whatever, be alone with himself and follow his impulses—to write or whatever, and to recall his dream experiences. You must let him know that you do trust him and his spontaneity, because before, no matter what you said, he knew that to some degree you wanted brakes applied.

The inner challenges, faced, will be nothing. He will realize his safety and ability, but the challenge cannot be put off. Before he sleeps he should remind himself of his natural gift of inner mobility, and encourage dream experience and recall. This alone provides the meeting of inner and outer, and true mobility. You must let him know that you do trust his spontaneity, for it is also your own, as you know.

Your confidence will increase his. Let him know therefore that you do trust him to go ahead spontaneously, regardless of where that might lead, knowing it will be beneficial and creative. The recommendations I gave to him should also be followed despite, and precisely because of any physical resistance. In the beginning for example he may not want to move.
