“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You cannot separate achievements from personality. “Being” is not that specific. You can say “Why did my artistic talent not mature when I was young?” Yet the dimensions of personality are such that basically the question is shallow. You could have been in those terms a successful, well-known artist. The dimensions of your being, however, demanded that you seek out questions beyond those of any known perspective, and to be the kind of artist you really wanted to be lifts you into a realm beyond the usually known.

A point: Ruburt’s condition involves a complete reorientation. The working men were a shock treatment of a kind. People often fast because it shocks the system, sometimes beneficially. Normal orientation is disrupted. Such shock treatments often jolt your belief systems. That is why they are sometimes effective. Retreats do the same thing. Often when you work, they give you a perspective. In that light, I have a suggestion only, even considering it will be beneficial, whether or not you follow it.
