“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] You have only to find him... [...] I can help you find him.

[...] There’s a woman connected with him, a sister, who helps him somehow. [...]

[...] There will be another development, and a good one for him.

[...] through him... [...]

[...] Often when Ruburt is alone the weight of these unexpressed fears is strongly upon him, then acting like a cloud that holds him down.

[...] He is confident Ruburt will produce a good book, and while busy attempts to keep in touch with him. He has written Ruburt for example more than Ruburt has written to him. [...]

[...] Now in the past Ruburt would brood over the feelings, leading him into a physical apathy. [...]

He does have attitudes, as I told him last evening (mentally), that you had some ten years ago, setting up so strongly the idea of responsibility and lack of lifetime (physical time to live, etc.). [...]

You have met him in Chicago. [...] While he is honest when he says something, his own ambitions betray him into untruths. [...] I believe he is two steps away from you, and usually you know better a man who stands between you and him. [...]

[...] There is a man in your own acquaintance who will be somewhat instrumental, and yet you do not regard him as a close friend, and to some extent you distrust him. [...]

[...] You have met him on two occasions in particular, and you may have had words with him at one time.

[...] Seth has given John the entity name of Philip, and so addresses him.

[...] The child carries with him [or her] the impetus and supporting energy provided him at birth from Framework 2, and he knows intuitively that desires conducive to his development “happen” easier than those that are not. His natural impulses naturally lead him toward the development of his body and mind, and he is aware of a cushioning effect and support as he acts in accordance with those inner impulses. [...]

Parents and physicians believe, instead, that the child is a victim, ill for no personal reason, but indisposed because of elements attacking him — either the outside environment, or [something] working against him from within. [...]

[...] The recovery seems to occur to him, as the illness seemed to happen to him. [...]

The results, appearing initially in that now-yellowed handwritten script, made him initially see that he had chosen the events of his life in one way or another, and that each person was not the victim but the creator of those events that were privately experienced or jointly encountered with others.

[...] The abilities were put to the purpose of protecting him from the hostile world, serving as economic sustenance. It became his duty to repress spontaneous feelings that might lead him astray. [...]

[...] Because he considered himself a writer, and because he considered a writer something different from a woman, it was difficult for him to realize that he was both.

[...] Lest he be tempted by his new house, he felt poorly, even for him, yet he saw through what he was doing, and he has begun an awakening of consciousness that is now in the process. [...]

Earlier she had a greater determination, a stronger faith that helped bring him through. [...]

She is too sorry for him. [...]

[...] At certain tides she rose to peaks of high encouragement that helped him. [...]

He is not unhappy, particularly if no one reminds him of what they think he is missing. [...]

[...] You then made a remark, voicing his own fears as well as your own, saying that you would not let him get away with it, meaning you would not let him get away with not going out as a pattern. [...] Ruburt’s body had extended itself on several occasions that day, stretching and using new postures, giving him the impulses toward further activity, exercising itself through that small-enough but important walk. [...]

[...] You encouraged him in that respect, but not too actively. [...]

[...] At that point he immediately took it for granted, with a rush of self-disapproval, that this was a sign that he had learned nothing, and that his body was objecting to the whole idea of going out, and therefore challenging him—in other words, that his negative beliefs had risen to challenge new healthier attitudes.

[...] You were pleased when Ruburt walked across the floor with his plunger, without the table, yet both of you expected him to walk down steps, small as they are, and walk around the car in the garage without his table, or there is something wrong. [...]

[...] This made me very angry, for as I felt my friend buzzing inside my hands, I wondered how I would know him from any other insect once I released him in order to help him.

(I was so concerned for my friend’s safety and welfare that I scooped him up in my hands, and held him between them like a child holds a trapped fly. [...]

[...] I keep talking to Rob and tell him to stay where he is. [...]

[...] I saw him coming in for a landing, tiny and green and apparently out of control. [...]

(Long pause at 10:20.) The public image is bound to make him feel inferior if he takes it too seriously. [...] That narrows his abilities too specifically and holds him down from other kinds of explorations for which he is highly equipped and quite proficient. [...]

[...] Most of the ideas that you stated were highly pertinent, applying specifically to Ruburt’s situation —but very touchy for him. [...]

His creative abilities led him beyond the precepts of that church, creatively speaking, at a fairly early age—though the actual breaking-off point did not occur in fact until he was in his teens. [...]

[...] No matter what he was taught in Catholic school or later in the public one, his intuitions, wedded to his creative capacities, led him to question established views. [...]

[...] To become aware of other individuals who are not within your system will be good for him. It will also help him to understand and appreciate my own unique reality, and this now-growing belief should result in a greater familiarity. [...]

In his daily life however, as I have told him in the past, the yoga exercises should be continued. [...] They are psychic, spiritual and physical exercises that will let him handle energy more effectively, and release his abilities smoothly. [...]

[...] He correctly but imperfectly recalled a dream during your vacation, in which I was helping him with his health problems.

[...] I was having a heart-to-heart talk with him. [...]

[...] His mother’s death, the fact that you left your job, and his own growing understanding released him first in financial terms, because of an always latent knowledge and belief in the reality of abundance—his father did have abundance even while Ruburt believed in poverty as a child.

[...] At times it does become invisible to him, so a part of experience that he does not consciously realize it as an idea about his reality, and not a statement of truth regarding his nature.

[...] Some quotes for him to recognize in the future:

The invisibility of the belief however made it difficult for him to deal with it. [...]

[...] He also promised to call an ophthalmologist friend of his, to explain Jane’s case to him and hear what this individual—a Dr. Werner—had to say about Jane’s double vision. [...] Jim Adams is to see us later this week to check on black frames for Jane’s new glasses, and she can question him on Werner’s responses then. [...]

He is waiting for reactions to my book (Mass Events), of course—and they will serve to mollify him when they begin to arrive. The book will help people, and as they write about that to him some of his old fears will be allayed. [...]

The crisis situation led him to concentrate upon his difficulties, which aggravated his stress, of course. [...] The books were held up, mine being only recently released, and as yet he has had no reader response, which does provide him with a kind of feedback. [...]

Ruburt’s nature leads him toward the kind of creativity he is naturally embarked upon. [...]

Selling door to door had to him the subjective advantage in that he was master of the situation, and was indeed the invader. [...] He would like some prestige in terms of position and financial benefit, that earlier did not concern him.

[...] Where his writing is not concerned, and when he relates himself to the world at large, he is timid, fearful, and without the confidence that his inner knowledge of his own worth should certainly give him.

The appearance of confidence, the engaging social self, is indeed a cover-up, adopted to give him time to acclimate to new circumstances of this sort. [...]

Later circumstances forced him outward, and yet whenever circumstances permit as far as business relationships are concerned, and situations, he will stay where he is.

[...] You are dealing with your father, for example, from one probability only—the one in which you knew him. [...] (See Volume 1 of “Unknown” Reality.) In the realities in which you saw him in the dream state, he was a wanderer—lonely, from your viewpoint, not his. The dreams represented your symbolic understanding that he was “a loner” in the probability in which you knew him—and in that guise you saw your father.

[...] If you want a better knowledge of your father’s existence, then try to think of him as a being who happened to be your father, and that will free your concepts of him.

[...] Therefore, whenever Ruburt is upset, I want him to return to the present natural data. [...]

[...] Anything then that encourages him to let go is beneficial.

[...] He cannot understand his own cruelty toward him, or the acts which he is impelled to perform. [...] He, with his remorseless conscience, welcomes the cruelties, for they make him feel as if he is doing penance, and for what?

(We had not asked that Bill follow the material from session to session, feeling that it was for him to decide whether to pay any attention to it or not. [...]

The other man was not involved with any of you in past lives, nor do I see him indeed at all in England in any era. [...]

[...] In this life he knows him, and he—

His circumstances of birth made it difficult for him to overindulge in the rich things of life, although his present mother used rich foods as compensation for other things, and this example opened Ruburt’s eyes and actually started him on the road to self-discipline.

[...] She said she didn’t know what kind of a session we would have, yet by 8:58 she reported that she could “feel him.” [...]

[...] His smoking, dear Joseph, is indulged in for entirely different reasons than those reasons which impelled you to smoke, and the habit is difficult for him to break, though he is breaking it and he has made strides that are important during the past year.

His smoking represents the tail end of a characteristic greediness that besieged him in past lives, with smoking this time as a remnant. [...]

(“Well, in discussing this with him I was concerned lest he use the method to hide things.”)

[...] You can help him to relax in the moment as you did last evening by simple reminders and by play.

[...] Your active support, as with getting up, is of great benefit, to reassure him that you will add your own strength to his.

Basically, what made him feel good was good. He was gifted with strong clear instincts that were meant to lead him toward his own greatest development, to his own greatest fulfillment, in such a way that he also helped to bring about the highest potentials of all of the other species of consciousness (intently). His natural impulses were meant to provide inner directives that would guide him in just such a direction, so that he sought what was the best for himself and for others.

[...] He becomes fully operational in his physical body, and while awake can only sense the dream body that had earlier been so real to him. [...]

[...] He was enchanted also by his own subjective reality, the body in which he found himself, and by the differences between himself and others like him, and the other creatures. [...]

(Long pause in a steady, rather fast delivery.) Man’s dream body is still with him, of course, but the physical body now obscures it. [...]

[...] It is taking him a while to realize that he is free. But he is doing so, and energy is being released and is available to him, that was not available earlier.

[...] The balance between aggressiveness and passivity on Ruburt’s part also forms a highly charged medium that allows him to act in his present capacity in the sessions. [...]

[...] Tell him to use peanut oil in his salads. [...]

(“How about rubbing the peanut oil into parts of his anatomy that bother him?”)

[...] So let your normality serve as a sounding board for him. When you play this down, thinking it either useless or at best not profitable, then you deny him the advantages of your better wisdoms in that area.

[...] These are still somewhat (underlined) separate to him, yet his ideas of doing good, being right, creating artistically, are now combining.

[...] I have said this before: as he helps you by releasing, as he has, these energies in the directions mentioned, then help him by taking the initiative at times, as he has in those directions.

[...] I mention this because there should be no divisions, and in trying to maintain balance, now, Ruburt has a tendency to think “Now I should try to be physical,” or “Now I should work,” where the two flow effortlessly together, and you can help him see this.
