“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The sessions that Ruburt read this evening—that group—contain excellent material that was, at the time, used to bring about considerable understanding and improvement in Ruburt’s condition. You would both do well to reread and discuss the information simply so that it is out in the open again. You can see what still applies, or what issues you think you have cleared up.

The material on work ideas connected with Ruburt still does have application. Many years ago his experience with different editors, in his short-story publishing days, led him to see that a story that hit one editor might not hit another, that his work would be much more easily accepted by some editors than others, and that some, it seemed, regardless of long enthusiastic letters, would not buy a thing.

(9:55.) Overall, being is its own reward—not that there are not others, but that being obviously makes all of your experiences possible, so you cannot tie being up in a package of work only, regardless of the nature of the work. All of this goes back to ideas that existence must be justified, and Ruburt’s early ideas that writing would justify his life—but writing should express life, and is an expression of being, an expression of spontaneity, an expression of emotion, of body as well as mind (all intently).

Now Ruburt’s hips are definitely changing their positions. Certain joints that worked very poorly are releasing, allowing portions of the body to move in new directions. His body is thrusting itself upward. Much work is done when he is in bed. It can be uncomfortable, but far less so with understanding and a bit of patience. He becomes frightened, for the reasons given in late sessions, and again, he can use as much reassurance as you can give him—as much understanding. And the better the communication between you, the better the entire situation.

In the next few days, have Ruburt read over that group of sessions. Enjoy the intimate behavior of life, the compensations that are available, and your own relationship, which provides more creative solutions than you realize. You should both be more spontaneous (whispering) with loving touches and conversations, and see even your difficulties existing in rich environments of being, in which you are not isolated. You are in the stream of life because you are alive.
