[...] She continued that she felt that my feelings about Prentice-Hall had influenced my own feelings about Mass Events, and so they have. She then said that she also thought my feelings about Prentice-Hall had influenced my feelings about Seth’s next book more than my feelings about her did. [...]

Even your concepts of creativity are necessarily influenced by Framework 1 thinking, of course, so our sessions do indeed follow a larger pattern than that, giving you certain perspectives from different angles in book dictation, and in other material. [...]

[...] That includes Ruburt’s as well — and that also includes of course books not yet written, in your terms, so that the future books also influence what you think of as the past ones. [...]

I will say merely that when during these sessions Ruburt is open, so to speak, to other reference points both within and without your system, there is a vulnerability to other influences. He has spontaneously set up automatic resistances that block such influences, or open channels through which their effects may enter your system.

The psychic organism is much better equipped to handle such transformations and translations than is the physical organism, and there are also influences, quite natural, from surrounding psychic environments within your system that can act as resistances.

[...] I have said that others in sympathy with your ideas will come into influence, and they will influence your head of state.

[...] Yet those books will also influence future time in an important fashion. [...]

[...] Nebene and you influence each other because you operate in Framework 2 in the work areas of your lives. [...]

Framework 1, to some extent or another, however, is always influenced by Framework 2. There, the same correlations do not apply between the effort expended and the work performed, or the time required for such procedures. [...]

(Recently our friend in Boston, Pat Norelli, had visited a female medium who told her that she was under the influence of an evil eye, and would never have a happy day as long as she lived. [...]

[...] Jane told me later that she felt the new influence mentioned would be a male.)

Your influence upon them is much stronger than you believe, and you have already changed their lives in rather important and beneficial ways. [...]

[...] Through these people you have also influenced their circle of relatives and friends, though to a lesser degree.

[...] Your own artistic endeavors have influenced the young woman who was here this evening. [...]

[...] There are no karmic influences that necessitate the particular physical condition (in Jane).

There are tendencies and conflicts that have been with the personality in other existences, that have influenced his nature as he vacillated between spontaneity, usually exaggerated, and overdiscipline; in some lives a great lack of concern for the welfare of others, that could be called an innocent callousness, a joyful, utterly spontaneous personality with little idea of practicality. [...]

[...] He worked up a proportional degree of energy to ward off their influence. [...]

A small boy connected with one of your children should be avoided: an unhealthy influence here. [...]

(Jane’s handwritten note: “May 1968—John, in rereading a copy of this session, saw at once that the boy referred to as M J is M.J. Shuman—a child whose influence on his son he distrusts. [...]

“When it is said that certain characteristics from a past life influence or cause present patterns of behavior, such statements—and I have made some of them—are highly simplified to make certain points clear.

[...] But all problems are not the result of such “past life” influences. [...]

[...] They can be solved, and while reincarnational influences certainly operate, they don’t operate in a vacuum. [...]

Some people are better able to utilize past life experience, I think, while others insulate themselves rather closely in each life, closing themselves off as much as possible from such influences. [...]

They shed their light upon the “facts” of historical time, and influence those events. [...]

When the psychic development began, Ruburt was triumphant, for his abilities were flowering, and intuitively he sensed that direction, but the part of him that also dealt with the world was somewhat appalled, for again, such behavior was not conventional, and it was not particularly “the way to make friends and influence people.”

[...] Cells are highly influenced by your behavior and beliefs. [...]

I know that Jane is interested in the book in question, but also a bit afraid of it: “I don’t want to be so influenced by it—or by any other book—that it starts coming out in the material,” she’s said more than once recently. [...] I’m not concerned that anything she reads will unduly influence her—or Seth.

(Actually, the session might better be called a Jane/Seth session, in that Jane’s own consciousness was often uppermost, riding upon Seth’s underlying and steadying influence. [...]

(My own moods have been poor lately, and it’s been a struggle to revive myself at times and to try to keep them from influencing Jane, for I can see that they do. [...]

(It’s supposed to express my views of the Seth experience, and how it has influenced or changed my ideas on art, life, and so forth. [...]
