“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Ruburt has been waiting until you were ready to actually begin typing the first book, until he saw the actual pages, and knew that you were finished with the bulk of the reference work and so forth. When he sees you beginning the actual typing he will feel free again for other book sessions. No matter what you said, he felt that he did not want to add to your work until then.

There are all kinds of like suggestions, all meant as preventive measures, but based upon the idea that ill fortune can be most likely expected, and means must be taken to avoid it. In many ways, and important ones, the two of you managed to avoid many complications encountered by others because of such measures. Until very recently, however, Ruburt did not recognize that he often placed the worst kind of connotations upon, for example, his own condition, or behavior in certain manners. This was invisible because the pattern still made sense. Your talk about the dentist did trigger such recognition.

(10:29.) Ruburt becomes worried when he thinks of the many people who write or call, asking for help. You are in the middle of a learning process. Objective answers given to people are not true answers. Questions that help individuals search into their own experience can bring out answers that literally cannot be given. You cannot write psychic prescriptions, for then you begin to structure inner experience. You are traveling yourselves out of an unsafe universe into a safe one. There are steps along the way. Ruburt’s are observable. The race tries to improve the quality of its experience through probing different kinds of probabilities. In a way each individual tries a different course for himself and for the race as a whole.

I am not speaking of course of you or Ruburt alone, but of everyone.

Ruburt’s condition has vacillated through the years, yet always contained within it the great thrusts toward health, and the improvements. These did not become official, meaning they did not triumph. Neither did their evidence disappear. The habit patterns, the attitudes, connected with the unsafe universe persisted, even as Ruburt became aware of the concept. Individually, however, in those terms he is well ahead of the species’ development.

Personally, Ruburt understands however that he exaggerated the negative elements of his condition, thinking that he was being realistic. He did not realize that before. When you look at the world and interpret its condition in the same way, you end up in an impossible situation as a people, for your learned coping mechanisms themselves reinforce the situation.

I appreciate your concern about the sessions. I knew they would resume normally however in a short time. And Ruburt finds your concern reassuring. I bid you then a fond good evening.
