“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I explained to her, as we waited for the session to begin, my dilemma about Note 6 for Appendix 22—my feeling of time wasted after I’d spent a couple of days writing it very carefully—only to have it fall apart at the last moment because I’d forgotten to deal with one crucial point. I found my evident lack of skill at planning quite depressing. See Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.

(I hadn’t had time to buy Jane’s birthday presents, although we both know what she wants—hot plate for the kitchen, and a summer bed spread. We’ve had a succession of visitors, all but one of them unannounced, and have lost work time as a result. Saturday, for example, I wasn’t able to get out of the house to go food shopping.)

Your work, in any case, is the interpretation of reality through your own experience, providing a new and creative view of man and the universe. You want that view for yourselves. It has always been your individual and joint search —a private determination to glimpse what you could of the nature of man, that was not glimpsed before.

You must do what you want because you want to do it, and if the authorities listen, well and good, and if not it is their loss.

The ideas will grow in any case. Whenever possible then outside of normal considerations, both of you should concentrate upon the creative, intuitive elements of what you are involved in. Forget such things as impressing the authorities so that they somehow will change the world. Do not expect the books to sell like novels, as I have told you. Free yourselves from such considerations, with their implications.

Ruburt’s body is geared for full recovery now, so keep that joint determination in mind. Trust your nature, and then you will see that what you consider mistakes are simply insights that come out of place, so to speak, and that has to do with your remarks before the session.
