“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Because of the personal material given in late sessions, Ruburt has the habit of worrying—protecting the idea of time and ability as described, so that in one day he will worry about what distractions may arise the next day, and this puts him on guard. The muscles are then in a state of constant stress.

(Seth started to say good night, but I interposed a question about my front tooth. It had begun bothering me during the session; last month much of it had been drilled away, and a temporary filling put in. I thought I was close to losing it at the time. I also felt I was attacking the tooth, for whatever reasons. Now I explained the situation to Seth and asked for a few words about it.)

You are, as he is, wondering how you will do what you want to, on your part—your painting, the book, renewed regular sessions, and regular chores. You wonder if you have bitten off more than you can chew. This is, on your part, a reflection of those ideas in which time is something to be protected first of all.

The tooth symptom is a result of those feelings, and of tensing the mouth and jaw. You also wonder if the book is more than you can chew—not alone, but in relationship with your painting. The material read over in our late sessions will help you understand that all of this can flow easily within the time available.

(11:31.) This is the first time you have decided to take time out to write. You still wonder that it will detract from painting. In creative time one adds to the other.
