“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At 9:00 she told me she thought Seth would discuss my questions #5 and 6, about black-and-white thinking, and touch upon “that article” about micro metal-bending, or psychokinetic metal bending. I was surprised to hear this, for even though I’d been quite interested in the article I’d forgotten it for the moment. It appeared in the PSI News bulletin of the Parapsychological Association. Vol. 4, No. 1 for January 1981. She’d read the article this noon at lunch when I called her attention to it. Until I’d first read the piece a couple of days ago, I hadn’t realized that much progress had been made scientifically in the detection of psychic metal-binding on a micro scale. The presentation of information seemed to be very straight-forward, though I’m sure that it will be attacked by the skeptics in a variety of ways. Perhaps we’ll learn more about the situation as it develops. I’m attaching a copy of the article to this session, for Seth came through with some unique insights concerning healing and micro metal-bending, or PKMB.)

(Long pause at 9:31.) The displacement target effect is highly important, for it operates in many other fashions. In all natural healing, of course (as Jane mentioned this noon), you are involved with PK activity—as you are ultimately with any physical act, and with any motion, microscopic or otherwise. Too much concentration, however, upon the desired end—too much concentration —can bring about a displacement target effect.

You might have, for example, poor eyesight while you are concentrating upon trying to heal yourself of something else—a broken leg: your eyes might be healed in a displacement effect, while the healing of your leg or whatever might be put off immediately because it is blocked by your own overconcern.

(Long pause.) The motion of microscopic events always involves probabilities, which are at the heart of your world, and healings always involve activity at that level also. To divert the conscious mind can therefore be of great import —enjoying television, relaxing in whatever fashion, allows the desired activity to occur. That is why such diversions are so beneficial. On some occasions company can provide the same service. Ruburt should therefore try to divert his mind more. His ink sketches serve that capacity. Television also.
