“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

“Now remember that Ruburt’s mother used phrases like: ‘I hereby disown you,’ and: ‘You are hereby disinherited,’ and: ‘I consider you no longer my daughter.’ Such situations increased Ruburt’s sense of not being safe, yet also reinforced feelings of independence, for he did not have to feel as dependent upon Marie as he might otherwise. [...] The ideas of the so-called sinful self represent several layers of activity, then—troublesome aspects of belief structures that are shared by millions in your society, and by certain levels of Ruburt’s personality. [...]

[...] Ruburt’s entire group of symptoms do not follow any established pattern. [...] See Note 13, in which I quoted Seth’s material on her search for value fulfillment—how, without the psychic breakthrough of the sessions, “Ruburt would have felt unable to continue the particular brand of his existence.”

“The church was quite real to Ruburt as a child, through the priests who came (to the house) regularly, and through direct contact with the religious (grade) school, and the support offered to the (fatherless) family. Ruburt’s very early poetry offended Father (Boyle), who burned his books on the fall of Rome, so he had more than a hypothetical feeling about such issues. [...]

Now I will tell you briefly that you were involved with last week although I have already told Ruburt and Joseph in their session. [...]

(To Pete.) And I appreciate over here, as Ruburt did, your bringing together the concepts of the Sumari cordella and the EE (electromagnetic energy) units. [...]

[...] She has some characteristics like our friend Ruburt. [...]

Now: The Physical Universe as Idea Construction, mentioned by Ruburt in his Introduction, did indeed represent our first formal contact, although Ruburt was not aware of it at that time.

Ruburt, for example, would have made the same error had he not been led by his experience beyond the framework of inspiration that had given it birth. [...]

I said a few paragraphs back that individuals such as Ruburt are themselves a portion of the knowledge they receive. [...]

Your bug, Joseph, differed in actual physical construction also from Ruburt’s. It was better detailed and more precisely drawn, smaller in size from either Ruburt’s or the cat’s, existed less in your camouflage time, and took up a measurably less amount of your space.

[...] Ruburt had my permission and even my blessing.

I might mention that Ruburt handled the situation with his father’s mistress in a much more intelligent fashion than he would have, if it were not for the insight he has gained as a result of these sessions.

It is most beneficial for Ruburt to be fairly well self-disciplined this period of the year, for reasons that I will go into later. [...] Not boredom, dear Ruburt, you don’t have to worry. [...]

I do not know if Ruburt is less nervous before a session when you do not use the board, or more nervous. [...]

Well, you will do well to give our peppery Ruburt his old divider or whatever up front but otherwise you are free as far as I am concerned.

Now let us look briefly at Ruburt’s old man.

Ruburt is using that information well, and you have been excellent in your response and encouragement—and that, of course, is no coincidence. [...]

(11:12.) Ruburt is learning about the unknown reality, and in his own way he is making such a journey as the one suggested in this book. [...]

Physically, Ruburt’s improvements will now begin to show more quickly. [...]

(11:03.) You told Ruburt that when he came down the stairs (this evening) you felt he would get well. [...]

The feeling even astonished you, so by contrast it should show you your own mode of thought habitually, and by implication suggest Ruburt’s. The experience should have been illuminating.

(11:28.) For Ruburt.... Ruburt was used to his writing abilities, and he was used to subordinating his psychic abilities where they could be safely enough handled through the guise of art.

[...] Tell Ruburt he will not have to seek me out. [...]

[...] In one way Ruburt was correct, it is a gift from the universe but it is also a gift from yourselves. [...] Now I am going to pause and I expect a different translation of this in English to our friend Ruburt before we proceed, and proceed we will. [...]

What Ruburt received with his numbers, and through his friend Nabene, is only a beginning and more, indeed, will be given. [...]

If Ruburt misses sessions and then feels guilty about doing so, little is gained and the regularity is also lost. [...]

If there is a class session, a long one, and if Ruburt feels tired, then the following session of my own may be a briefer one. [...]

There is a difference in the various work done in different kinds of sessions, and subjectively Ruburt may be aware of this. [...]

Now: Ruburt’s skill is as ancient as man is, and indeed all of your arts, sciences, and cultural achievements are the offshoots of (pause) spontaneous mental and biological processes.

People like Ruburt translated inner knowledge in many ways — through acting it out, through singing or dancing, through drawing images on cave walls. [...]

When the species needs certain abilities, they rise to the fore, as in the case of Ruburt now. [...]

[...] He wanted to meet Ruburt to make sure that someone was embarked upon that search. [...] And in his own fashion, he passed on some energy to Ruburt as a gift to help him in that endeavor. [...]

Now: briefly and emphatically: there is no reason for either of you to feel ashamed of Ruburt’s physical condition.

[...] Ruburt realized that he had been afraid to try walking again. [...]

Ruburt spoke before the session of handling aggression. [...]

[...] As you have mentioned, Ruburt’s egotistical self is now aware of potentialities and problems that did not exist for it earlier. [...]

[...] A message I am relaying to Ruburt: the answer is to concentrate upon freedom. [...]

[...] You see Ruburt, who is on a swing, and you are concerned and sad. [...] You wander about, see Ruburt once more, and again you are concerned for him.

[...] Not only in regard to yourself, but in regard to your younger brother, and to Ruburt. [...]

Ruburt could transcribe the notes, and I could speak to you more clearly.

[...] First of all, I advise Ruburt along these lines: it is best if he not work at his own writing or records up until the last moment or so before a session.

[...] Take for example then the house in which Ruburt spent his childhood. [...]

Ruburt has progressed very well, but is still learning to pinpoint in a specific manner.

[...] There is no reason for Ruburt to be surprised at Mr. Fox’s thesis on dreams and out-of-body experiences.

[...] Ruburt is quite familiar with such excursions, though egotistically he is only slightly aware of a few of them. [...]

[...] Each of them therefore constructs, you see, the dream location at which they have agreed to meet, a point not thought of by Ruburt’s Mr. Fox.

[...] Ruburt should definitely take up his yoga again, as he plans.

For Ruburt, incidentally, a good date approximately January 13.

Ruburt does not have arthritis. [...]

[...] Ruburt should continue with his exercises, as they are unusually beneficial for him. [...]

If Ruburt will begin his exercises again he will notice an immediate improvement. [...]

The improvements in Ruburt’s arms are a sign of the body’s response following the arousal of hope and faith. [...]

Ruburt’s dreams of last night were also highly beneficial. [...]

Now: Very briefly, I want to congratulate Ruburt on the Rembrandt book, and to reassure him that that same creative energy is healing his body as surely as it has written books. [...]
