“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now: you worked with the pendulum yesterday. You did not work with the pendulum however regarding those specific events (since they all took place after our morning pendulum work). A good portion of the session will deal with such issues.

First of all, many of the questions reinforce the idea of fear, for example, or lack of safety, each time they are asked. Am I afraid of the world? Am I afraid of my neighbors? Am I afraid of inspiration, or whatever? Do I trust the world or inspiration or whatever?—but your questions themselves are now loaded with built-in negative suggestions. Besides this, in an odd fashion, they lack a certain specific nature, as I will shortly explain, and there are too many of them by far to be handled at one session. That is, their number precludes any one single clear path, specifically noted. I want to stress the purposes they have served, and their general nature and so forth did help to bring up a variety of important issues. You now have too jumbled a variety of material to effectively handle.

So for now I simply suggest that Ruburt walk gently three or four times a day to whatever degree seems natural at the time. Otherwise, my position is this —and here I repeat—because overall changes in position and balance are necessitated in order for normal walking to occur, one portion of the body at this point is not going to right itself so that, for example, Ruburt’s arms are suddenly straight while his knees are bent. All portions of the body are stretching. The arms are longer. The legs have straightened. The knees are looser. The neck areas are releasing—but at any given day or period, right now, one or several areas might well be stiff or uncomfortable.

Now: instead of dealing with large issues, Ruburt is to write at least a page about his feelings that day, with particular emphasis upon any issues that bother him at all. Over a period of several weeks, for example, he will have dealt with specific incidents and his reactions.

I do not know how you want to handle this, but the two of you should go over that page of feelings together. According to the day, the situation, you may then want to work with the pendulum, considering some specific event or issue from that day—but this need not be a lengthy session at all. With your discussion, perhaps 10 minutes with the pendulum would be sufficient, The pendulum also can be used when any event occurs—again, when specifics apply.

End of session. Now prepare questions if you want for our next session, but read this one over carefully, first. The only hint I can give you for your benefit is one, again, that I have given you often before: try to imagine Ruburt’s complete recovery as a creative endeavor—a creative venture, in which all kinds of inner events occur even before, and way before, the completed picture shows itself.
