“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I want to return to a discussion of your specialized focus, individually and jointly. [...]

[...] Because of your joint ideas—you, the artist, Ruburt the writer—then your financial contribution was strictly limited by both of you to that one field.

Ruburt did not want to understand, for he was afraid, in your joint framework, that you would stop painting, and not use the framework you were supposed to, to get money. [...]

Despite that, Ruburt’s body is improving, but the rate of improvement mirrors your individual and joint beliefs. [...]

You form your own reality privately, yet one cannot enforce a joint reality upon the other. [...]

(10:l4.) The benefits of such distractions do indeed, I admit, seem quite invisible to you, and in your joint experiences they often appear simply as nuisances. [...] The distracting elements are exaggerated, however, because of your joint misunderstandings on the subject. [...]

[...] Many of your distracting events have uniting qualities that escape your joint notice.

[...] You act this out subconsciously then, hampering the free motion of the joints, which then become stiffened through the inactivity. The stiffness then convinces you that the joints are indeed at fault; this adds to the problem, which then gives more fuel to the basic fear. [...]

[...] You do have freedom in your joints, for example. [...]

If you allowed this to continue and did not check it, then gradually the inactive joints would be accepted as a basic problem. [...]

The suggestions however also help you as you give them to Ruburt—highly important as far as your joint realities are concerned. [...]

[...] These beliefs have become a part of your private and joint realities, affecting you (me) invisibly as they affect Ruburt visibly.

[...] The joints are following suit. [...]

[...] A concentration upon your individual and combined work, your practical plans in that direction, will promote an enthusiasm that you have not felt jointly or individually in years. [...]

A point now that I want you to heed in advance: In the past, because of joint negative attitudes, I have given the reasons for some of these. [...]

You chose to do what you did, individually and jointly. [...]

[...] This is an example however of the way in which your private and joint beliefs operate in a given area. [...]

[...] He realized that this was often reinforced by you in your comments, and in this very simple instance you see the result of a joint belief freely carried through without conflicts. [...]

[...] Your work together with my book will be of great private and joint benefit; and continue with your lists on beliefs. [...]

The woman (Pat) likes the books, is highly enthusiastic, quite sensitive, so that she did pick up your joint dissatisfactions with Fell. [...]

You form your private and joint reality. [...]

Released joints at first move slowly, or at different rates—but the improvements are accelerating—or rather they are at the point where overall body motion effectively takes place.

The physical situation is highly active: ligaments and joints in particular being released in the hip and leg area. This also applies to beneficial alterations in the ankles and toes, where additional fluids resulting in the swelling effect help cushion the new motion in particular of some joints, so there is no grating. [...]

Your joint ideas of the ideal, its expression, and feared closure, was in the past also largely responsible for your joint embarrassment over Ruburt’s physical condition, your joint shame over his appearance.

He was indeed expressing the ideal of his life to a far greater degree than most, but in those areas, where its expression lagged, the contrast seemed so varied in your joint eyes as to make the ideal seem a lie by contrast. [...]

[...] All of the individual and joint inhibitions you have placed upon yourselves spring directly from those specialized versions of yourselves.

You each produced despite your individual and joint efforts to inhibit other areas of your life; to protect a limited, old idea of what an artist and a writer are. [...]

Whenever his confidence is built up to even a small degree, and he shows signs of wanting to go to your joints, then you call the tune, and he lets you. [...]

[...] That also applies to you, and both of you jointly, which is even more important: your joint agreement. [...]

[...] The idea however has been, the more secret you were, each of you, the better off you were, while at the same time your individual and joint creativity would be known. [...]

Now, dear friend, you have also shared some of these ideas, and to some extent seen Ruburt’s physical condition as a symbolic statement of how the so-called authorities viewed our joint work. [...]

Apropos of your joint discussion on Monday: it was advantageous. [...] He knows when he spontaneously wants to go out, or to a joint, or whatever. [...]

[...] The two of you did indeed embark on a joint venture, using now reincarnational terms.

[...] The two of you jointly also did agree, despite your own feelings in space and time, and I understand them; I know that the method will be left behind. [...]

[...] There are various degrees of pressure in the body, supporting the organs, joints, and so forth. [...] The added circulation does indeed cushion muscles and joints, allowing for easy motion. [...]

The release of a small “unknown” muscle, short and innocuous in the foot, might activate another in the shoulder in the precise order necessary, that will act as a stimulus, say, for a joint someplace else. [...]

[...] The cushioning of muscles and joints will allow first for easier motion and easier walking—that is, without such inner gratings.

[...] Certainly if your joint desire to see Ruburt better was as active and dedicated as theoretically it should be, the towels would have been used.

[...] Given the improvements that Jane has been showing since this series of sessions began, I’d say that both of us have moved much closer to that dedicated and joint desire to see Jane much better, as Seth mentioned on the first page of tonight’s session. [...]

[...] And in particular you chose the conditions of the flood and took part in a joint history.

I will at some time go into the reasons why all of you chose that house and the flood situation, for it fit into your joint and private purposes. [...]

[...] In that joint venture it made little difference which of you accepted the role that would in one way or another prevent the both of you from misusing power, for the one role would be passive while the other was active.

When you see Ruburt going too far in one direction, and see him trying to alter that direction, you can indeed exert your energy, leadership and direction there, for the two of you also operate jointly as well as individually. [...]

[...] I want you to understand your power, individually and jointly, in that regard.

[...] You can expect the release in physical terms of more muscles and joints, and see the quickening in motion.

[...] The energy of your individual and joint ways, however, and my energy, support you. [...]

Your joint comprehension of this can bring about changes in Ruburt’s condition that now, to you, would seem to be miracles. [...]

Then I bid you a fond good evening, with a note: I plan to finish our next book very shortly, and I hope this meets with your joint approval.

[...] Help over this present period will let you see what I mean in a clearer light—but the thrust of your joint motions is upward. [...]

[...] This is your own individual and joint expedition. [...]

[...] With a bit more relaxation, however, you can have as many or as few as you want for a while, for your individual and joint energies are indeed replenished in such fashions. [...]
