“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Coupled with all of these things is the three-part article we’re reading in The New Yorker on the travails of publishing these days; the large sums involved, books being treated as “products,” etc. According to that information, we’re so far out of it in any meaningful way that we’re left feeling quite inadequate. On the other hand, we haven’t forgotten Seth’s recent material about our being protected—and I for one really think that’s true. It does take an effort to keep it in mind at times, though. It’s also made it quite difficult for me to whip up any enthusiasm about getting back to work on the notes for Seth’s Dreams. I’d just gotten nicely into that project when the disclaimer business started over Mass Events—it seems like months ago; actually, this may be the third month following the interruption, an incredible gap in creativity, for which I blame Prentice, no doubt about it.

You are protected. When you know that you are, you can save yourselves considerable periods of stress and strain, because you realize that you are not at the mercy of other people or of their actions. When you think that you are in such a position, you react in threatened fashions, of course, and give them power that they do not naturally possess. I am certain that you know in what areas of your lives this material might be useful. End of session, a fond good evening.
