“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This is important to note: after we’d had our talk, I suddenly realized that my gums had stopped bothering me. I told Jane I’d forgotten about the situation. The lesson is obvious, as I wrote when I got home: Sharing the challenge with those others who are involved helps a great deal, and may be vital. The others can, it seems, help minimize the negative aspects of a situation while enhancing the positive. Have I helped Jane in this manner, or hindered her by reinforcing joint negative beliefs? But the event helped me get first-hand experience with the therapeutic benefits that can stem from simple communication. It reminded me of the therapist’s classic couch. I want to discuss this more with Jane.)

(Thoughts of her birthday at once led her to Mother’s Day and her own mother, Marie. Jane talked at length about the welter of conflicting events surrounding Marie and herself. She realized that as a youngster she had loved her mother, and tried hard to do things for her, even when Marie had rejected her efforts say, in buying a nightgown of the “wrong” color.

(The aftereffects from the “form” lingered as we talked about it and I made these notes. Jane hadn’t been consciously thinking about psychic matters. Earlier I’d read her the verse from the birthday card I’d bought her yesterday, and she had enjoyed that as much as she had yesterday, when I’d read it to her for the first time. Both of us had felt emotion at the reading, both times. She didn’t know if that might have triggered her experience. But our feelings engendered by the reading of the card were valuable events in themselves.
