“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Ruburt wanted to make creativity work financially so that you could both be free to pursue it. Through the years the goals of one level of consciousness— though I am putting this simply—became tied to the goals of another level of consciousness. Overall, ideally speaking, the two could be fused. Practically, however, this is like trying to build two pieces of furniture with different materials, then forming them into one cohesive whole. In both of your lives, those experiences, however valid, that did not fit both categories, gradually went to one degree or another by the way.

You keep trying to justify yourselves in the normal world, with the people that you meet. You work long hours, you both overinsist, so people will not think you lazy—or, worse, imagine that you are having fun or enjoying your situation. You are not having much fun right now, and partially for that reason. You are often working longer hours for the same reason, and enjoying it less, as the saying goes.

When you both had to work outside at least partially for a living, you did not have to consider your beliefs about creative time, or how to organize your day creatively. You were too busy trying to get rid of your jobs. Once that goal was reached, your beliefs about time and creativity became pertinent, as did the issues concerned with spontaneity and discipline.

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.

The relaxation will help both of you physically. You have not fully relaxed, and that will relieve you of the chest difficulty along with the understanding, I hope, that will come to you as the result of this session.

Your joint attitudes are particularly important, for they involve your stance in the world. Your attitudes toward people are jointly vital, and the inner mobility must flow on both of your parts. The sessions began because of your private natures, yet to some extent the books make you publicly known. Your conventionalized ideas of psychics, both of you, are troublesome. I hope to clear those up.
