“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You must renew your sense of dedication, privately and jointly. I have some definite proposals, and I suggest that you take advantage of them. I am mainly going to suggest the use of certain techniques with which you are quite familiar. You have not used them as a way of life because of the conflicts mentioned earlier, and if you are going to get off dead center and do something instead of complaining, you must each begin to put these to practice. They worked well years ago, before you tried to wed two systems of belief to each other.

I will have more to say about that particular subject, but first I want to start you with proposals. You may wonder how they are to be carried out, though they are simple. They will come into conflict with your concepts of time, and will automatically begin to alter your subjective realities if you follow them. If you do not matters will continue as they are. I will leave your hours up to you. While you have regular daytime hours, I suggest the following pattern.

This particular pattern is a suggestion only, however, but it will be of benefit. It would apply to each of you. It would apply to you alone whenever Ruburt works at night instead. When you are on the same time schedules, then bed at midnight. Set your alarm for 7:00, and get up. Be at your respective places —Ruburt at his desk, you in your studio—by 9:30, and work clearly, without interruptions, for three hours.

Each day should include, separately, a half hour alone that includes relaxation techniques and psy-time. This should be followed to begin with for each of you, by 10 minutes of yoga exercises. Ruburt should do the most simple ones. Then you should instantly get up. You are to take a 10-minute walk daily. That is a spiritual exercise as well as physical activity. Ruburt should, as I suggested some time ago, have a private phone. Class at least once a month, later twice a month, never more for now.

I will eventually suggest two sessions a week again. Your joint concepts of time are the only impediments at this point.

Television at your dinner hour is advantageous, as long as it is not news. Occasionally you are helped by relaxing in such a manner for several hours. Often, however, this is dead time because your worries have so tired you. Several evenings a week, therefore, I suggest that the two of you pursue a period of psychic activity, as per Ruburt’s library, though with whatever variations suggest themselves. You need not be overly earnest at such times, however. I am not concerned about our book, the latest one. I am intent, however, about a new beginning, a new dedication, so that your own purposes become clearer, and your abilities better used. Conventional ideas of the psychic world have eroded both of your attitudes. In many cases, as with Kubler-Ross, it is again an issue of high insight occurring but put at the service of conventionalized beliefs.

(11:40 PM. Jane’s delivery was often more forceful and emphatic than I’ve indicated here. The session is excellent. Since it’s late the next evening as I finish typing this, I can write that we’ve already begun putting to use some of the suggestions recommended by Seth.)
