“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(3. I asked that Seth continue his material on the waking-sleeping patterns of the species on a global scale. He began this in the 800th session for April 4, 1977, following my questions noted in the 796th session for March 3, 1977. Seth does discuss the question tonight, and rather than break up this session by making it half regular and half deleted, I’ve inserted the proper notes in the 796th and 800th sessions to refer the reader to this deleted session. The material is excellent, and should eventually be published somehow. As an article? Psychic Magazine?)

When man really intensified “rational” thought, and developed the electric light, he lengthened the time of waking consciousness to some extent. Those abilities were concentrated upon. The importance of symbols was minimized, and intuitive thought to some extent, went out of style.

(11:42.) Now Ruburt has been concentrating upon the symptoms, imagining this or that, often not responding to the moment as it is, but to imagined future events and moments filled with threat or difficulty. Three hours of free writing time are not supposed to be three hours of worry. His state of anxiety must be lessened. The eye condition would disappear, and much more quickly, if he would think of other things, and follow the instructions I have given.

The glasses he wears are not nearly as important as his worry about which glasses to wear. Relaxation will help the head area continue what it is trying to do. The eye condition is a part of that process. When he gets out of bed, or immediately after breakfast, I would like you each day to remind him that he can trust the physician within and the ancient wisdom of the body. Those are the words to be used. They will serve as important reminders that will help structure the day, particularly with your involvement with them. You follow me.

Ruburt is used to dealing with subjective events. He examines them. For him it is important, more than for many others, that he choose events with some discretion. When his mental event is, say, a book, he becomes engrossed in it, and this is positive. When he becomes overly concerned with his symptoms, however, the same event occurs, the same process, but with negative results.

I want to add a note about dream programming, however, very brief: have Ruburt tell himself that healing can be accelerated as he sleeps, and “that help and inspiration can appear at all levels of his experience.”
