“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

DELETED SESSION

(As referred to in the last deleted session, Saturday evening we were visited for a half hour or so by Scott and Helen Nearing, who were participating in homesteading workshops at Mansfield State Teachers College for several days. They are very nice people. He is 95, she is 78. As Jane said, “Scott conserved his energy, but he seemed to do well enough, although his movements were slow, especially walking and sitting down. But he appeared to have the use of all his faculties. Helen was very agile. Scott Nearing was quite interested in how well the Seth books were doing, whether any of the “leading magazines” had interviewed Jane, and so forth. The reasons behind his interest are brought out in tonight’s session, and in Jane’s own brief summary of the visit in her notes.

(This evening we watched a movie on HBO before settling down for the session. Jane was very restless, and had been so for much of the day. She wanted action, was full of nervous energy. Several times today she walked a few steps, with either the aid of the kitchen counter or her table, and did well.

(She felt pretty relaxed by the time the movie was over, but wanted to have the session because she thought it would contain material on Scott Nearing.)

(This of course as a result of my outburst following the last deleted session; see the notes.)

It is very important that your readers also do not latch upon “you make your own reality” in such a way that they reinforce old beliefs about poor self-worth, sin, or iniquity. Your joint reactions last week, following our session, are perfect examples of two things. First of all, of course, you both voiced the fears and beliefs that were still causing the difficulty. And secondly, because of your progress the affair was instantly turned into a creative one.
