Session 392 The Ego-Intuition Tug-of-War

Pull up a chair and get comfortable, because we’re diving into a classic moment from the Seth Material. This report breaks down the vibes from Session 392 of The Early Sessions Book 8, recorded on the evening of January 22, 1968.

In this session, our favorite multidimensional personality, Seth, drops some truth bombs about Jane Roberts (whom he calls Ruburt), her "stubborn ego," and a hilarious case of psychic "wrong number" displacement.

The Ego-Intuition Tug-of-War

Seth starts the night by roasting his own medium just a little bit. Apparently, Jane—the "reluctant medium"—had been having a bit of an internal power struggle. Her ego was feeling a bit jealous of her intuitive side, leading to some physical symptoms and a few restless nights.

• Total Commitment: Seth points out that Jane can’t half-heart things. She’s either all in or her ego starts throwing a tantrum.
• The Ego’s "Weak Offensive": Jane’s recent difficulty sleeping was described as a "last struggle" of the ego.
• Harmony is Key: Seth notes that when Jane's ego and intuitive self actually work together, she hits "prime efficiency."

Seth captures the struggle perfectly, stating:

"In too many instances my intellect has been held back by the stubbornness of his ego. His own abilities have not therefore grown at the rate which was possible."

The "Oops" Moment: Displaced Data

Now, here is where it gets funny. Seth starts throwing out psychic impressions for John Bradley (whom Seth calls Philip), who was witnessing the session. Seth gives a laundry list of dates and names, but John is just sitting there confused because none of it fits.

As it turns out, Seth was picking up "mail" for the wrong person! The information was actually meant for a Methodist minister Jane had met the night before.

The Psychic "Wrong Number" Details:

• The Name Mix-up: The minister used to go by the name "Phil," which is why Seth kept calling out to "Philip."
• The 1947 Event: A "spectacular event" or something deeply affecting occurred in 1947.
• The Hospital Stay: A reference to an illness or operation in 1938.
• The Mississippi Connection: A lean professor with glasses who taught economics or mathematics.
• The Move: The minister was recently from a town called Allison or Addison, likely in New York.

Seth’s reaction to the mix-up was a classic apology for the spiritual "lag":

"The information as given applies to the minister Ruburt met last evening—the whole content as given. The error having to do with the name Philip—the minister at one time in his life was called Phil."

Future Vibes for Philip (John Bradley)

Even though the first batch of data was a "wrong number," Seth didn't leave John Bradley hanging. He closed the session with some actual personal insights for him:

• Career Move: Seth predicted a new position offer would arrive for John within a month or two.
• Health Check: He pinpointed a neck difficulty caused by inner conflict, specifically a misalignment of the 4th vertebra.
• The Parting Shot: Seth ended with a witty pun: "Your material was displaced, but I hope you are not displaced."
