“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The old attitude kept reinforcing the idea of self-disapproval, accusation, period. What is wanted is another matrix or support from which the personality can assimilate still newer knowledge, and continue to develop—generally speaking—with a sense of relative freedom.

Emotional support, such as that almost nonchalant (long pause) yet commonplace kind that happened this afternoon, is important. Such encounters provide an emotional support that cements feelings with your fellow beings, and that in a fashion helps minimize in the present some of the defects of Ruburt’s childhood relationship with his mother. This also applies to your small group of friends and students, where the idea is one of friendly support and understanding. There are indeed clues in the seemingly innocuous material that Ruburt intends to note down, involving the soda, the cookies, and so forth.

There will be a good response to both Ruburt’s book and mine, which will also serve in a supportive way. End of session. I will have more remarks in the same general framework shortly—and a fond good evening.
