“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“It should go without saying that impulses are the basis upon which life rides —and that they represent the overall motivating life force.”

The material on impulses was indeed from me this morning, and in a way that material, coming through as it did, was the result of Ruburt’s dawning understanding that his own abilities can indeed help him solve his difficulties when he allows it. The morning material is important, then, and should be appended to the session.

Neither of you should feel embarrassed—or, rather, ashamed—of his physical condition either, nor consider it more reprehensible because of our work, than you would consider it otherwise. This entire material is important and vital.

(10:41.) Give us a moment.... The material I gave this morning is especially important, and should be studied. The medication (a stronger aspirin) is all right for Ruburt. He is using it as an aid. The soreness that he experiences at times is a physical result of mental ideas, generally, that it will hurt to face the world, for example, and this new knowledge of impulses, and of his feelings, should help there.

All of this information should help accelerate his improvements. It is significant that he has of late felt like standing unsupported, even if only briefly, for this means that he is beginning to sense a point of balance. He should encourage those impulses whenever possible, of standing unaided, even if the time is brief.

Give us a moment.... Ruburt should not disapprove of himself because of his physical condition either. He can quite rightly disapprove of the condition, however. He should, again, perhaps with your help, now write a new list of his accomplishments, and also of his positive characteristics, so that he keeps self-approval in mind, and your compliments when he does look well are always helpful.

You should use both events to learn from them. What you do is not as important as your attitudes toward your decisions. Fears are understandable. They are natural, but it is not natural to be ruled by fears.
