“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Sometimes I wonder if I’m supposed to work on Dreams these days at all—whether it may not be a project whose time is not yet for either Jane or me. Today I speculated about just laying the book aside for six months or a year while we get other things straightened out. I got so tired wondering about it all that I napped for 20 minutes before supper—all I could salvage out of the usual hour’s naptime.

(Jane continues to have accelerated movement in her knees—a very encouraging sign. The night before last, for the first time, she slept practically the whole night lying on her left side—a feat she’s been unable to accomplish for perhaps years. This rests both her back and buttocks. She’s been more and more relaxed lately, and for hours at a time. She often sleeps in her chair.

(Long pause, dozing.) I bid you then a fond good evening, stressing once more, however, that additional material that you want will be given, and we will know when the time is right.

(9:28.) As mentioned earlier, Ruburt had little experience with the medical situation. He was more frightened when he encountered it than he realized. The experience shook him deeply. At the same time, when he returned home he was afraid he could not handle events, and might fall toward a constant medical surveillance. It he could not “do it” in the medical manner, and if he could not “do it” on his own, then where was he?

(I’d wanted material on the fascinating case of Fred Conyers, but had never hoped we’d get it. I also remembered Seth telling us some time ago not to call Jane’s condition arthritis. But then, I didn’t know what to call it any more, particularly when the hospital tests had pinpointed it as exactly that; the blood tests especially. Maybe we could go back to using the term “symptoms,” like we used to do.)
