“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(We’ve learned a good deal about Jane’s symptoms, working with the pendulum since Monday’s session. We’re keeping a list of all questions, with the daily answers, and are now seeing some notable shifts in answers, indicating improved communication between her conscious and unconscious selves.

(We had several questions for Seth, including the one noted at the end of the last session: Why didn’t the unconscious realize it was going too far in its protective role? Why didn’t it back off? Jane wrote the question up on a separate list, so that we’ll make sure the inquiries that develop are taken care of by Seth. Two corollary questions I came up with yesterday are these: Does the unconscious know there is a physical body? If it does, what is its conception of that body?

Because the fears were hidden, they could not be countered through, say, fresh experience that might show them to be at least exaggerated. They could not be reasoned with, and the unconscious was left holding the bag, so to speak.

In a strange fashion because of his fears, now—and these particular fears can be countered with communications with the unconscious, and with understanding—he was afraid simply that so many people knew of his existence. To some extent that would have been involved no matter what field of endeavor he chose, if he became well-known.
