“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Jane finished the session, doing very well indeed. She said she felt “real impatient, that I want to get up and do something—you know what I mean? [...]

Remind him, again, to trust his own energy—simply a reminder, for certainly he is beginning to do just that. [...]

[...] The body knows what it is doing (emphatically). [...]

[...] He is doing well dealing with that. [...]

[...] He can do more of that to his advantage. [...]

[...] I often do — it’s almost the same high-flying feeling I get when I do some good poetry, like on Monday….” [...]

Do the Speakers live?

[...] We were NEVER externalized!’ These words do little to explain my emotional, subjective feelings of participation in this idea. [...]

[...] Questions involving physics arose — the Fermi gap [having to do with the movement of certain electrons], and so forth — and Jane ended up drawing diagrams of her own. [...]

[...] Action develops according to value fulfillment, and value fulfillment has little to do with size or numbers; and action turns to consciousness. Action working on itself becomes consciousness, and in speaking of consciousness I do not necessarily mean what you mean by the word.

If you will forgive me, you do not seem in the mood for much action this evening.

Do you want a break?

[...] It cannot do so, and the result is the formation of many selves, that are a part of action, and formed from action; and therefore each self must continue in the creation of other selves.

You do not have completely empty shells of matter about to be filled, in that the new personality hovers in and about, particularly after conception and with greater frequency and intensity thereafter. [...]

[...] Generally speaking, there is an optimum point of focus in physical reality, a period of intensification that has nothing to do with duration. [...]

[...] He may do one of many things. [...]

[...] If a personality believes that it is doing a poor job in a male life, it may activate the anima’s qualities, taking on the characteristics of a past female existence in which it handled itself well. [...]

[...] They do not disturb you. [...] Nor in a daydream do you usually worry about returning safely to the present moment.

[...] The soul would then begin to explore the reality of this joy in terms that can hardly be explained, and in so doing would learn methods of perception, expression, and actualization that would have been utterly incomprehensible to it before.

Now: Physical objects are the most obvious of your symbols, and precisely for that reason you do not realize that they are symbols at all.

In so doing, the soul continually creates new varieties of inner reality to be explored. [...]

[...] In various dream states you do delve into notime, and it is of course here that you have your primary existence and the ground of your identity.

[...] The other can indeed telepathically help change the inner climate by inserting ideas of confidence and strength, and thus changing the psychic climate enough so that the ailing personality can then do more on their own behalf.

[...] The yoga exercises are good but can be performed with a lighter heart, not a do-or-die attitude. [...]

[...] Do this as if you were starting out to paint a picture, requesting to see the images of certain persons at a given time or situation in the future, and let your abilities then fill in on the imaginative pattern. [...]

[...] Did do suggestions and try to return to the natural moment—though did forget that a few times. [...]

[...] On awakening could feel my eyes were bugging out and vision blurred some; Pat and Carroll came; I’m embarrassed to be seen walking as I do—worse Carroll comments on my eyes—throat—I’m mad at me and at her; instant poor mood, worry about eyes again—think worse things—make an effort to trust the physician within; tell myself to ignore negative suggestions—then return to natural data. [...]

[...] The resultant heaviness of limb, the swelling of various portions of the body having to do with an overproduction of a chemical, I believe, called pectorin, or something very similar.

He may, on the other hand, tell himself that I am there, watching out for him, and I shall be glad to do so as I have on many an occasion. [...]

[...] These two suggestions had much to do with the early morning symptoms, and these also, you see, are now vanishing.

Your attitude has much to do with his improvement. [...]

(The irony of the whole affair is that during the visit I thought he’d helped Jane by advocating doing nothing about the finger at the time—which was what we wanted also. [...]

[...] She was convinced the finger would mend itself, and it appeared to be doing so in its own way. [...]

[...] I felt caught between these opposing ideas, and didn’t really know what to do. [...]

(Then Sunday morning on their way back home from Geneva, NY, Rusty and Hal stopped again, since we’d told them to do so. [...]

Now: Dictation — and can’t you do something about this?

(Although she doesn’t usually do such work because of the time required, as well as her own emotional attitudes, Jane had given impressions during the earlier call. [...]

[...] Obviously these are not apparent to the physical senses, yet they are strong energy centers that to some degree do stimulate the physical senses toward activity. [...]

[...] If you do entertain such ideas yourself, you must often personify such spirits, projecting upon them your own ideas of personhood. [...]

When you look at the animal kingdom, you suppose that the male chooses blindly, led by “dumb” instinct, so that in overall terms one female will do as well as any other. [...] You take it for granted, in other words, that individual differences do not apply in such cases so remote from your own reality.

[...] Your sexual qualities are a part of your nature, but they do not define it.

[...] During what is called the sexually active time; the larger dimensions of personhood become strictly narrowed into sexually stereotyped roles — and all aspects of identity that do not fit are ignored or denied. [...]

[...] The individual wants to grow in terms of personhood, but is afraid of doing so. [...]

[...] You have also been told that if you do not express your sexuality, you are displaying unnatural repression, and furthermore you are led to think that you must above all force yourself to enjoy this ambiguous sexual nature. The old idea that good women do not enjoy sex has hardly disappeared. [...]

[...] Because the intellect and the emotions were considered so separately, however, attempts to express intuitive abilities often resulted in, and often do result in, “unreasonable” behavior.

[...] Those ideas are changing, and as they do the species must accept its true personhood. [...]

[...] Males ruled both (they still do), and yet those leading religious organizations at least recognized their intuitive base. [...]

[...] If you feel filled with rage, then do not say, “I am filled with peace,” and expect results. [...] If you do this honestly the reasons for the fury will come to you, and they will often be quite obvious. [...]

[...] Both imply great action and vitality, and an aggressive thrust that has nothing to do with violence. [...]

[...] (Pause.) If you do not understand that you create your own reality, then you may assign all good results to a personified god, and need the existence of a devil to explain the undesirable reality. [...]

[...] You will not trust any knowledge that comes easily for you will feel that you have to pay, do penance for the attainment of any wisdom. [...]

Your whole concept of time is built about your own capacity for perceiving action; as this capacity for perceiving action grows, so indeed do the dimensions of time grow. [...]

[...] But there is much that you do not know that you can learn.

[...] Not only do you impart energy into a painting, but you also derive energy from a painting even while you are working on it. [...]

[...] It is determined by time as you do not know it.

[...] Physical objects do not exist as such in a basic manner. [...]

[...] The inner senses you see do not distort the data, but when you attempt to make such data available to the ego, then distortion to some extent must enter in.

Do you have an envelope for me?

[...] (Jane paused and lowered the envelope to her lap.) Do you have any questions?

[...] He seemed to be so taken with the Seth material that he’d stopped reading everything else, he said, yet when I said he shouldn’t do that, he said he read widely of other material — that sort of thing. [...]

[...] Then when they do, sometimes it turns us off.

Please do lovingly remind him (Jane sneezed) to trust his body and its processes. [...]

I do indeed also quicken those coordinates that so aid in those healing processes. [...]

[...] You should not do this until you see the whole form.

[...] Do you understand?

(Did I ever do well projecting in any of my past lives? [...]

[...] I do not have such difficulties. [...]

(Jane tried to read the session from the day before, but didn’t do well. [...]

[...] I heard her exclaim over the feat at the time, without paying a lot of attention, since I’d shoved my chair back into a corner to get out of the way while the staff worked on Jane; I was doing mail. [...]

(“If you can do that,” I said when we were alone, “it seems like all restrictions are off”—meaning that she should continue to improve. [...]

[...] Jane tried to reread the session for 12/4, but couldn’t do much with it. [...]

[...] Jane plans to inform him that he and his family are doing much better than they know.

[...] Although instruments can indeed be most advantageous in many ways, they still present you with secondary rather than primary tools of investigation—and they distort the nature of reality far more than the subjective attributes of thoughts, feelings, and intuitions do.

[...] Never again would we go the way of two volumes, we thought—yet here we are, doing it once more!

[...] There would be publishing difficulties having to do with sheer bulk—with the cost of typesetting, with binding such a thick book, with marketing and price, and so forth. [...]
