(At 3:40 Jane began reading yesterday’s session, and did very well indeed — her best yet with speed, and with both eyes open, whereas she usually has to close one or the other. She wore her glasses. “Maybe your doing so well today is an outcome of the session for yesterday,” I said. She thought it possible. She was also eager to have a session today, and began it early.)

(4:21. “He will come back, I guess,” Jane said. She had been interrupted twice during her delivery: once to have her temperature taken — 98.7 — and once to be given vitamin C. I read the session to her. “I have the feeling this is like first aid,” she said. Resume at 4:27.)

(“You’re talking about outside the sessions themselves.”)

I will interrupt whenever I can be of benefit — and I will also provide sometimes short but pithy session material (with humor) that can be used sometimes as subject matter for free association. You can begin of course by free associating with any appropriate subject — his mother, his father, your relationship, your individual or joint sexual feelings, his ideas about his psychic material, his writing, or whatever — and I will also provide guidelines.

(4:43 p.m. I read the session to her. It certainly would be a mistake to let book material go, for any reason. It would provide variety and a sense of accomplishment aside from any other more personal material Seth may give. The free association approach Seth suggests will be something different for us to try. I’ll let an approach to handling the material work itself out.
(Jane called early — before 9:00 p.m., as I was getting ready to type this session. An insight concerning my questions about the role of diseases came to me after supper, before I began typing this session, and I want to note it for possible future discussion. Regarding my visit with Joe Bumbalo this morning: He has cancer. I found myself thinking about the cancer being a new, explosive growth within a body that was aging. That growth was fated to bring about not only the death of its host, but the cancer itself. So what was it doing, behaving in such a fashion? Was Joe Bumbalo giving birth to a new life form that upon death would be released to continue its growth elsewhere, just as we believe Joe will do after his death?)
