“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Certain methods of self-enlightenment in my book will serve as quite adequate techniques, that can be used to acquaint the known self with other portions of the psyche. The solution to many practical problems, such as poor family relationships, or health difficulties, or any specific areas of difficulty, can be more completely understood and resolved as a result of such general knowledge and overall enlightenment.

To whatever extent, each of you in your way grew up in the belief system of your times. Ruburt is doing a complete turnabout. After years of relating to his body in one way, he is changing that relationship. You have been taught to follow certain rules. These said that you ate at certain times, slept at certain times, followed certain patterns because these were important. You were not taught to stress individual inclinations or leanings or characteristics, but to view any deviations as alarming. It seems highly impractical in that system of belief to tell an individual that he or she knows the best patterns of behavior to follow, to suggest that each person knows how much sleep he or she needs, or that left alone you will pick a correct diet—a diet geared to you. Instead it seems that there must be an overall diet suited for human beings in general, or a sleep pattern best for the race at large.
