“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(9:54.) You tried to separate emotions from work—an impossibility. Compare for a moment, if you can, your love of technique in a painting with the way you write. You have been searching for a larger-than-life technique—looking for the greater dimension in which beloved details rest—and only your own ideas of economy have hampered you. There is greater economy in what you think of (underlined three times) as waste—a divine economy in which “all” waste is lovingly used and transformed.

Only in creative play does great “work” emerge. Only from exuberant impracticality do any so-called practical inventions come. The creative mind and spirit transforms the “waste” that others would disdain. It rises above all practicality into those greater realms of emotional and spiritual abundance that gives birth to all worlds.

I will end shortly. Your pendulum help is all important because of what it represents—on emotional levels, and because Ruburt then does not feel so alone in his dilemma. When you give pendulum directions however other portions of your psyche come through in a loving directing fashion, and the greater contact is made than you realize.

It is foolish to say “Why does it take so much time to learn?” For each learning process is highly unique, and contains within it particular achievements that you yourself want; and these achievements not only rise above the difficulties, but in the greater view the steps are seen as steps “upward”—the individualized problems understood as the same kind of challenges you might set for yourself to conquer in a painting, or as part of the entire creative process.
