THE EARLY SESSIONS

The Early Sessions consist of the first 510 sessions dictated by Seth through Jane Roberts. There are 9 books in The Early Sessions series.

THE PERSONAL SESSIONS

The Personal Sessions , often referred to as the deleted sessions, are Seth sessions that Jane Roberts and Rob Butts considered to be of a highly personal nature and were therefore kept in separate notebooks from the main body of the Seth material. There are 7 books in The Personal Sessions series.

The great value I see now in the many deleted or private sessions is that they have the potential to help others, just as they helped Jane and me over the years. I feel that its very important to have these sessions added to Janes fine creative body of work for all to see. Rob Butts

I dedicate The Personal Sessions

to my wife, Jane Roberts,

who lived her 55 years

with the greatest creativity

and the most valiant courage.

A NOTE ON THE COVER DESIGN PHOTOGRAPHS

June 2003. A note about the photographs Michael Goode used in his striking cover design for The Personal Sessions series.

The central colored photograph of Jane and the lower right and left-hand shots of her and myself were taken by my father, Robert F. Butts, Sr., in Sayre, PA a year or so after our marriage in December 1954. The upper right one of Jane in trance for Seth was taken (among many others) by Rich Conz, a photographer for the Elmira, NY Star-Gazette , while he witnessed Session 508 on November 20, 1969. (See Volume 9 of The Early Sessions .)

I dont know who photographed the young Jane shown on the upper left, but she saved that picture all of those years for me to inherit upon her death in September 1984, when she was 55.

My inventive and versatile father had always taken photographs, and in his later years turned professional, photographing many weddings and other events in the Sayre area (and also Janes and my wedding at the home of my younger brother Loren and his wife Betts in Tunkhannock, PA). To help my father, my mother Estelle trained herself to hand-color his black and white photographs, for color film was not available thenand so she colored Janes portrait. Now I wonder: do my long-deceased parents, and Rich and the unknown photographer of the young Jane, all know that their creativity will grace the covers of a series of books that I so lovingly dedicate to them, as well as to Jane and each reader? I believe that they do, each in his or her own way.

SESSION 599 (DELETED PORTION)

DECEMBER 8, 1971

(This material is deleted from the 599th session for December 8, 1971.)

Now. We will divide the session into two parts, although they may or may not be equal parts.

We may do this presently for some sessions. I am taking it for granted that you are both determined to clear the air and set yourselves to a new level of achievement and freedom. Therefore I will make whatever comments I can on your progress.

First of all, this evenings small chat: it was a beginning. You should freely encourage each other however to express feelings. Those mentioned tonight on Ruburts part were negative ones precisely because they were so strongly inhibited. He tossed them out cautiously, watching for their effect upon you.

You reacted cautiously. It was like the beginning of a dance. When Ruburt got a real touch of inhibited feeling he automatically translated it to the leg, and only by a strong exertion of will managed to get the feeling behind the words out at all. Nor did you freely encourage him to do so.

(These feelings involved unexpressed emotions stemming from several years ago, on Janes part. When she became aware of them, she got a pain in a leg, but a little later did tell me about them.)

He worried about the effect of such expressed feeling on you, and both of you intellectualized, as is often your wont. This does not mean that a series of crying jags, explosive ones, need be in order, as Ruburt fears, and fears that you fear.

(I wasnt concerned about that.)

They would be well worth the while, however. This is the kind of thing I have been speaking ofthe avoidance of a direct confrontation with those (in quotes) negative emotions blocks out the one emotional (in quotes) solution: an emotional statement on your part that counters ita meeting of emotions.

The expressed (underlined) emotional anger, accusation or hurt on Ruburts part would automatically, or should, bring out in you an answering emotional statement. Answering in that any hurts or reasons on your part would be expressed with feeling, and the way cleared for an emotional statement of love, regret, or on both of your parts an emotional expression of sorrow for having hurt the other.

Instead you get to the point where the emotion barely surfaces and you say Oh, yes, that came from such and such. This applies now to both of you. Now you both handled emotional situations involving you both more or less in the same manner. You still do not want to feel and counter the emotions on their level.

This clears the emotions, the spirit and the mind as well as the body. This is what I meant by not moving each other to tears or laughter. By this small encounter this evening you showed your willingness to proceed, and also clearly showed how little you understood about what I really meant.

You want to do anything with the emotions but feel them. Write about them, paint them, talk about them, anything but feel them. Do you see the difference now?
