“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane’s Tuesday paper on her feelings is evidently a very important one, representing some excellent insights on her part about her repressed impulses, her fears about my reactions to various events, her private nature and public appearances, and related topics. I’d say that to some extent at least its content flows from the proposed interview with a reporter from The Village Voice, a contact made with the business manager at WELM in town, and so forth—hardly accidental, we think, that these events connected with publicity, her work, etc., come into our awareness at this time. They seem to be like small test cases, meaning that our reactions to them, how we handle them, will show rather clearly where we’re at these days, as they say.

(“Despite the beliefs and teachings of religion and psychology, impulses are biological and psychic directional signals, meant to nudge the individual toward his/her greatest opportunities for expression and development privately—and also to insure the person’s contribution to mass social reality.”

(“On a biological basis, impulses are like [or can be compared to] emotional instincts; individually tuned, so that ideally impulses are stimuli toward action—that results as a consequence of complicated inner ‘unconscious’ computations. These computations are made by drawing upon the psyche’s innate knowledge of probabilities on a private and mass basis.”

8. Your impulses will automatically provide you with the proper balance of solitude and company, private and public activity, exercise and rest—for you!

Be that as it may, Ruburt began to withdraw from the world, and in important ways denied himself the experience of dealing with others in those respects. He is gifted in dealing with people. He has the capabilities that allow him to hold his own very well, blocked only by fears and hesitations. He does have a very strong private nature, along with an ability to communicate to others—and as my material stated this morning, a greater understanding of his impulses would lead to a natural balance. He might not want to see anyone for months, in which case his impulses would be to refuse any interviews or whatever. Then the impulses might change overnight, leading to a more sociable time.

That was important privately. But in your own searches you are literally leading millions of people, many who will never write you, and effectively inserting ideas into the society, that will in their time come to flower also.
