“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(With all of the recent hassles involving family visits, publishers, and so forth, I’ve begun keeping that session in mind often. Now whenever I sense a conflict arising, I do as I’d figured out—and as Seth himself suggested recently: I ask the advice of the first man; what would he do in these situations? Usually the answer, in the vernacular, is short and sweet, as they say: The hell with it. This means that I sidetrack —but not try to repress—those cultural and learned beliefs I’ve let rule my life in large measure, instead of following the natural, creative dictates of my first, or primary man. I should give him a name.

(My own activities, then, have aroused in Jane the urge to try the same approach, and I’ve suggested she think of her own women numbers 1 and 2. It seems that she confronts the same basic challenges I do, I told her, so she could delineate the two opposing portions of her personality well enough to understand that many of her cultural beliefs have been imposed upon her natural, spontaneous, free, creative self, and to such an extent that the acquired beliefs have turned into detriments rather than aids, that she envisioned as helping her obtain what she wants in life. She wanted some material on the whole business tonight from Seth. She’s also told me that just this weekend has she realized that she really didn’t want to walk, as “long as it didn’t hurt too much not to.” An important insight that she can use to help free herself....

His impulses provide him with inspiration also. There may be days when his impulses lead him to do housework, or—zounds!—to want to walk more, but that freer inner motion will also release him for the kind of inspiration he wants.

(10:32. “I had no idea he was going to do that,”” Jane said, meaning work on the new book. “I’m so glad we got back on the book. And whatever he said about me, just give it to me and I’ll follow it to a T.”)
