“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I was saying in his first episode: “Ask and you shall receive, ask halfheartedly and you shall receive in exactly that measure,” and I was looking at you exactly as I am now. Ask and you shall receive. This applies in every area of experience. When you ask you expect an answer, or at least a reply of a kind. If you ask on the one hand and then say “I do not want to know” on the other, the results will be minimal. Ruburt was asking for flexibility but he did not fully want it, and so halfhearted questions bring halfhearted answers. Lately he asked wholeheartedly, and there will be a wholehearted answer and reply—from the psyche itself, which understands its parts. There is a wisdom and an understanding operating, a beautiful give-and-take in life between the intensity of a desire and its fulfillment—an underlying exquisite sanity. While symptoms of any kind serve a purpose they are considered legitimate. The psyche will not remove them until the intensity of desire for freedom rises high enough to meet those purposes in other ways.

(10:05.) Ruburt had not completely wanted his flexibility. It was only because he went so far in certain directions, because he grew so much in certain areas, that the problem of physical stance with the world arose.
