“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I told Jane that I’d long given up trying to hammer out my next writing project, as Seth had mentioned I was trying to do in one of these recent deleted sessions. I was now simply trying to live each day, painting, working on the files, or in the yard, doing errands, and so forth. It’s all helped, although I don’t feel completely free physically yet. I’ve managed to come up with some new insights about painting, however, and have begun implementing them. I can already tell the difference in the work, and am very pleased with that. The insights, which seem rather obvious in retrospect, represent a sort of synthesis that I’ve been trying for in recent years.

(Today we received from Larry Dowler of the Yale archives a letter giving us his latest thoughts, as well as a form to sign. making the gift of papers to Yale legal, evidently. We have a number of questions to resolve first, though. At the moment I must be putting them off, but eventually we’ll deal with them all. We haven’t received our will from Bill Danaher yet, and we have more questions for him, also. I told Jane that I regretted starting that whole business, but she responded by saying that we’d have to do it sometime, probably, so we might as well go through with it. I’m somewhat dismayed by the work that might be entailed – that is, if I carry through with the original idea of checking through all the material, putting it into notebooks that match the originals, and so forth.

I made recommendations, but they seem to take too much effort to follow (quietly ironic) as far as Ruburt is concerned. You have done well there, for the yard work is helping, and the change will naturally bring your creativity to flower if you leave yourself alone. But a change of hours now and then is excellent, as far as Ruburt is concerned in particular. The changes stand for mental flexibility.
