“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(However, I do keep much of what Seth has said on such troubles in mind, even if it doesn’t show too well, often. In fact, I think his material and insights into the species’ behavior is the only sensible body of material on the subject that can stand questioning and understanding—no small achievement, as I often remind Jane. [...]

(By the same token, I try to keep Seth’s material in mind concerning her own challenges and problems, and this has helped enormously. [...]

(My two questions for Seth concerned the small lumps on the underside of Jane’s left arm, including one on her elbow, and the bright redness of the palms of her hands that I noticed the other day. [...] I asked that Seth comment.

[...] She merely wanted Seth to discuss “the whole thing.”

[...] I reminded Jane that I think it’s an excellent one, and that I want to type copies for us of the material between 9:15 and 9:36, wherein Seth explains that the intellect needs to realize that it doesn’t have to go it alone, that it is supported and aided by other portions of the self. [...] I also told her I want to quote portions of Monday’s session in Seth’s current book, Dreams.

(This is certainly magical — Jane’s performance as Seth, in the sessions. This note, which I wrote a couple of days later, was inspired by Seth’s material in this session:

(“Seth, of course, not only dictates his magical material — the session — but must keep the whole session in mind while doing so, so that each sentence as he delivers it makes sense compared to its predecessors, and those to follow. [...] Seth has no script to go by, nor can he refer during the session to my own notes to check up on what he’s already said.

(“These comments about Seth’s abilities seem obvious when they’re considered as I’ve just described them, yet I don’t think I’ve thought of what Seth can do in just that way before. [...] See the material after 9:44 in the session of August 13, about the intellect and the ‘undisciplined and unreasonable’ intuitions. [...]

(The following may be one of those incidents from Framework 2 that Seth advised being on the lookout for: Last week I rather seriously thought of ordering a copy of The Origin of Ccs In the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Jaynes. [...] I’ve been curious about it ever since it was published —last year, I believe—for from the reviews printed of it I believe it contains some material that may be a distorted version of Seth’s “sleepwalker” material in Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.

[...] Today, then, the mail brought a copy of the book from a fan that sent it as a gesture, remarking about certain similarities it contains with some of Seth’s material. [...]

(Jane told me as we sat for the session tonight that she’d had some hints from Seth that the session would be on faith. [...]

[...] Now she told me that Seth’s recent prediction that her eyes would show noticeable improvement shortly has evidently come to pass; she wanted me to note that here. [...]

[...] He didn’t advocate doing anything like an operation, and his advice was consistent with Seth’s material yesterday. [...]

[...] At 4:13 Jane resumed with material she’d told me yesterday that Seth planned to cover today.)

(“Good afternoon, Seth.”)

(Jane had remarked the other day that she thought Seth would talk about her reaction to class and the mail—topics discussed in the opening notes for the last session. I was also still thinking about her reaction to the sessions themselves: the idea that she could feel inferior to Seth and/or the material was, as I noted, a pretty new one for me, and somewhat surprising. [...]

(In some way portions of Seth’s material tonight triggered an awareness of my own—not a new one, yet it seemed somehow that it was quite significant. [...]

(I suggested now that Seth talk about Jane’s very uncomfortable state concerning her backside, hips and legs. [...] She finally felt Seth around at 9:55. [...]

(So here again, we have a reference to Jane’s possible feelings about Seth and what he does, regardless of whether his labors may be eventually published as “a Seth book.” [...]

[...] John heard Seth’s voice in warning one time when with June Fleming, and heeded the caution. This material is on record in the sessions.

(John verified Seth’s material regarding his wife, Mary Ellen. [...]

(John said Seth’s description of a younger man with a Slavic face and short prickly hair fits Bob Dineen, another salesman also present at the Rochester meeting. [...] Seth had given him black or brown hair.

(“Good evening, Seth.”

(In the opening notes for Session 852 I wrote that starting with the 846th session for April 4, “Seth has been dictating material for Mass Events on Wednesday evenings only.” [...] I took it upon myself to present material from two Monday night sessions — 853 and 855.

(Earlier tonight Jane had picked up from Seth some of his material for the session, should she decide to hold it.)

(When I told her she’d delivered an excellent, often impassioned session, Jane said she’d written half a page this morning that sounded a lot like Seth’s material. [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] These were triggered, I believe, as I looked over Seth’s material on counterparts in Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality, and by his material on my Roman captain life in the same period, as he gave it in the deleted session for Sept. [...]

[...] I asked that Seth possibly comment tonight. [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Some time may be involved physically for the materialization, but in usual terms the foreshortening effect can be quite startling, for time is affected and used in an entirely different fashion. [...]

(As Seth-Jane delivered this material, my mind flashed back many years to a summer day when I was about eleven years old. [...]

[...] She was eager to have me read Seth’s material back to her, but then: “Oh, wait a minute… I’m already starting to get more, and I want to get up and move around first.” [...]

[...] This does not necessarily imply physical force, but instead the power of energy directed into a material action.

[...] You may pretend that such material is hidden but it is quite within your conscious awareness. [...]

(Out on the porch tonight off and on I kept getting stuff from Seth but so normally and smoothly that only something Rob said later made me remember. [...] Rob said, “You must want a break in the routine-” and his remark brought Seth’s material back, though now I know I don’t remember it all. [...]

[...] All of that material has a general appeal, however, and I wish I could show in a few words the variety and depth of Seth’s information.

Seth’s material largely opposes science’s mechanistic model of the body wearing down within certain age limits, abetted as that model is by the power of the beliefs that say it will. [...]

(On January 23 I mailed to our publisher Jane’s Introduction for Sue Watkins’s Conversations With Seth.

I told Jane she needn’t have a session if she wanted to paint, but that if she did go into trance I wouldn’t mind getting something from Seth on the dream I’d had early this morning. [...]

[...] I was upset because I felt it was all true, and because I’d felt like interrupting constantly as Seth was giving his material. [...]

(I should take a moment here to note that Seth has said this before, and that Jane has referred to it also. [...] Especially devastating is this when the material explains very clearly that things don’t have to be that way. [...]

[...] Seth’s material, and Frank’s, goes a long way toward easing her feelings of fright, for now we see that those feelings represented her—and my—misunderstanding of her own bodily functions as the body ceaselessly tries to right itself.)

(Jane said she’d like a session as soon as we’d finished a late supper—by 7:20 PM—and expressed the hope that Seth would deal with her immediate situation—sort of an emergency treatment. [...]

[...] “Maybe I got tired this afternoon, working on the Intro for ‘Unknown.’ I’ve had messages from Seth the last few days about the book stuff for the session tonight, but what we got doesn’t fit any of them…. [...] It’s as though when the material’s good I expect that it should take more time to get, or something like that…. [...]

2. Jane and I are really looking forward to Seth’s material on man’s “misconceptions about the nature of good and evil.” [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”

[...] He is very active now on other levels, and is putting our material to good use. [...]

(The swollen condition of her feet still concerned me, although I’ve kept in mind Seth’s material on that situation and feel better about it. [...] I only hoped Seth was correct about her feet, for indeed they’re more enlarged than ever, especially the right foot.

(Long pause.) The more stimuli, thoughts, desires and material of a diverse nature brought into the system—within reason—the greater the amount of material the inner self has to work with and put together in its own creative fashions—but do remember those sessions given that remind Ruburt that his body can indeed recover, that he can indeed trust his body’s processes, and that he should not compare his life with anyone else’s, but trust in the entire fabric of his existence, and you indeed should trust the entire fabric of your own. [...]

(The day after the last session I wrote down a question for Seth. [...]

(My viewpoint was that it was impossible for me not to have strong feelings about the situation, even though—as I said—I agreed that her paper was a highly creative piece of work, that it augured well for the future, and that it was so far easily the best material we’d gotten on the symptom affair. [...]

[...] Naturally, Seth’s material about a physical regeneration makes me think about other parts of the body regenerating itself—and Jane’s too. [...]

[...] It had been Leonard’s illness that had triggered a set of symptoms of my own, which Seth has been treating in these recent deleted sessions. [...] Seth also comments.

(The following material is from the 901st session.

(“Thank you, Seth.”)

[...] I’ve often had the feeling that Seth’s material parallels Jane’s own situation, whatever that may be at that moment. [...] Large portions of it could be Seth’s material for her alone.)

(“Good afternoon, Seth.”)

(4:41 p.m. Jane said, “I have the feeling that whenever Seth gives exercises like that, that he’s giving them just when I need them, and the reader too. [...]

[...] Seth’s material had reminded Jane that several times in the past she’d had the experience of hearing music when none was to be heard—that is, no radios were playing within range, etc. [...]

[...] Jane reports that when she pauses for Seth, during a delivery, that she can sense the whole concept of whatever subject is being discussed. It appears to hang over her, but since it is too much to handle at once, she feels Seth withdrawing it, to release it to her a little at a time in the form of connected words.

[...] We sat at the board; as soon as our fingers touched the pointer it spelled out Seth’s greeting.

(“Good evening, Seth. [...]

[...] So far, then, events have fallen into line with Seth’s material yesterday—about the probable lack of a lawsuit, an early resolving of the insurance question, and with Jane’s own feelings about same, at the end of yesterday’s session. [...]

(I didn’t have time to go into it today, but Seth’s material reminded me anew that I know my own mother had managed to make me afraid of certain areas of life—that as I grew up, then left home and had to manipulate in the world, I became quite aware that I’d acquired certain fears or inhibitions. [...]

[...] Her Seth voice was quite good. [...]

(“Good afternoon, Seth.”)

[...] I took all of this activity as an example of Seth’s material, above, and mentioned it to her at the time. [...]

[...] “Boy, I want a session from Seth so bad,” Jane said at 8:11. [...]

(Jane’s Seth voice was pretty steady for the most part. [...]

[...] I feel like Seth was here for five minutes, and then I was back. [...]

(I told Jane that I think Seth’s material on the animals’ sense equivalents of human civilizations is the best of its kind I’ve ever heard — most evocative indeed. I hope Seth comes through with more on the subject before he finishes Mass Events.)

(This evening’s session was of average length for recent ones — lasting about an hour and a half, including break — but Seth devoted only the first short portion of it to Mass Events.)

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Those “notes,” however, dealing with other matters, ran for several more pages before Seth said good night at 10:38 P.M.
