“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Through the day Jane herself received periodic insights from Seth about the condition, mostly having to do with her fears that she wasn’t walking enough, and not trusting the body to do its own thing in the recovery process. The gist of the impressions seemed to be that she ought to ease off walking while the body recovered —a very strange state of affairs, it seems to me, and a situation that has bothered me often before: Why should the body give up certain functions if it’s in the process of recovering? I doubt if I for one will ever be able to fully comprehend that kind of reasoning—whether from Seth or anyone else—since I think that as the body —any body—recovers, its range of activities expands correspondingly instead of shrinking. Yet Jane said the material from Seth blamed her panic-stricken attempts to see if she was walking enough each day.

Now yesterday Ruburt told Frank that he would see him every other week, and he told a white lie to cover the real reason. Frank had brought him flowers. On the same day he called your friend Peg, already wondering if he might have hurt Peg’s feelings the week before. He invited Peg and Bill for the evening, but Peg had made other plans. Ruburt felt he must have hurt Peg’s feelings, and this made him also feel somewhat abandoned, fearing that the friendship might simply lapse.

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.
