“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane discussed a positive, energetic dream of last night, which isn’t recorded here. She said that last night’s dream sequences were her celebration of her bodily abilities — her insistence on the excellent workings of the body. She thinks she hasn’t used the abilities of her body. “I asked it to forgive me for not doing that. I gave it the freedom to move — and here I am uncomfortable as hell all afternoon.”

(Could her uneasy state be a sign of the body’s responding? She used to think that “if I used my body all the way, I wouldn’t work — which is hysterical, because now I do hardly anything.” She doesn’t know if her body can fully recover, yet she really believes that she can straighten out her broken leg. I suggested that instead she realize that her good left leg is now in a position to straighten out. She hadn’t thought of that. She does now think that it’s safe to recover physically.

In so doing, they then apply their imaginations in structured ways that serve to reinforce the prime reality-framework. For some time, however, young children utilize a remarkable imaginative freedom, so that, for example, they can experience “alternate” events with as much focus, strength, and vitality as that with which they experience ordinary life. A potent daydream may, in fact, appear far more real than the other daily events that surround it. When the child is playing, its sense of joy or anger or danger is very strongly felt. The child’s body will often reflect those conditions and reflexes that would be elicited if the so-called “play” events were real.
