“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I’ll note my question here so that it won’t be forgotten, although actually I mentioned it to Jane after tonight’s session had been held. Simply, I thought it would be a good idea if Seth would tell us about what good things we’ve managed to accomplish through the years as far as Jane’s symptoms go. It would be nice to know what hassles we’ve surmounted, that no longer apply. This would seem to imply that others had come along, or been developed by us, to take their place—at least something had been created to take their place. But surely we’ve accomplished some beneficial things too.

(Jane’s delivery as Seth was quite animated and brisk.)

If you are overconcerned with helping others, then you must first of all begin to question whether or not your creative material, still forming, will serve that purpose, and if not, or if there is a question, you give birth to hesitations and doubts that—again—subvert art’s free flow. An overhanded sense of responsibility leads in the same direction.

(Long pause.) Beside this, he felt that such a performance would alter the direction his work would take in ways that would be detrimental overall, for the broadening quality of that kind of discourse could only be as extensive in scope as the quality of his audience’s understanding, so that the material might become too tailored to public need or consumption—tied up in answering conventional questions—an excellent point, by the way.

(Yes. And one that Jane and I soon became aware of even on that first very limited tour we took to help publicize The Seth Material.)

This will be a brief session. I want you to read over the last sessions, however, for your own edification. If you want to, note down any particular questions you want to ask—knowing of course that I will answer them in my own fashion. Ruburt’s material last night in the dream state was excellent, bringing feelings to the surface, and rearousing some attitudes he had forgotten.

(“Thank you. Seth. It’s very good.”

(Attached is more of her own material that “came” to her. She’s just finished typing it, although she received it last Monday and Tuesday. It’s excellent material, as Seth said, and is a continuation of that she received on February 6; see the end of the last deleted session [for February 17].

(I intend to now begin compiling a list of questions for Seth that grow out of his recent sessions—hence his remark above about such a list. We’ve talked about this a number of times, and I’ve also mentioned it in session notes. Coupled with this will be my compilation of brief quotes from the sessions—making points for Jane’s quick perusal that I think are especially good. This list can also be used as a guide to refer us back to the body of material from which any particular quote is taken.)
