“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You tried hard not to think of your friend Leonard because his situation so upset you. At the same time you were concerned for him, of course. His illness brought up a million questions about the nature of illness and death, age, and so forth, backed up by your society’s negative beliefs, so you tried harder not to think of your friend Leonard, and of course you couldn’t relax.

Now: Had you been following your natural impulses, your body cells would have picked up that message easily. You received them in any case, because of your connections with your friend, your affection for him, and the years of association in the old apartment house. Had you been relaxed, following your impulses, and unhampered by the fearful beliefs that your friend’s condition also aroused, then those cellular messages would have been smoothly translated into an impulse to call Leonard, or to have Ruburt call. Your fears got in the way. Whenever you thought of Leonard, you told yourself to forget it.

The similar nature of your complaint to Leonard’s, however, should have instantly reminded you of such a situation.
