“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Are you open to questions tonight?” I asked as we sat at the card table waiting for the session. Jane didn’t know, though I didn’t think she was. I said that I wanted information on the present status and beliefs of her sinful self, for comparison with its earlier stances in life. This question has arisen because of my work on the intro for Dreams, of course, I have the feeling that it might be useful to get something on this so that I could use it to close the intro, but we’ll see. Actually, I regard the attitudes and beliefs of her sinful self as the key to Jane’s recovery, since better attitudes there will leave her free to automatically restore mobility, both physically and psychologically. Hopefully, this new synthesis is taking place now, and will accelerate as Jane responds. I’m of the opinion that her thyroid status is closely involved here.

(Long pause.) As I mentioned, the beliefs of your society are everywhere embodied in all of its organizations and professions. The give-and-take between any given individual and his or her society therefore are fascinating, as the individual and mass beliefs are reinforced. Since you are starting from scratch, so to speak, then you have only each other to rely upon. Really try to see it as a challenge—the daily reinforcement of trust and belief—so that, again, each of you particularly encourage those emotions of hope and optimism that are so important. In a fashion you are your own church, school, college. In a sense you are your own parents as you attempt to bring into physical reality an entirely new body of concepts and beliefs. You have the individual and joint abilities to aid each other immeasurably in that regard. Earlier you simply were not ready to make that fuller transition, and again, that transition, once decided upon, is indeed effortless.

(As Seth remarked, the session is an excellent one. and we must try to put it into practice. I think that many of his suggestions are automatically falling into place in our lives, too, and that our “crash course in medicine” has served as an invaluable trigger and impetus in that regard. How ironic it may turn out to be—that a course we avoided for many years—the medical one—may turn out to be the final push we needed in order to put our beliefs in order.)
