“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

“Now, I have made my friend Ruburt sit fairly quietly for some time, so out of the goodness of my heart I will now end our session; though I may indeed drop in a word now and then.”

“Now, if you find yourself with a headache, say immediately, ‘That is in the past. Now in this new moment, this new present, I am already beginning to feel better.’ Then immediately turn your attention away from the physical condition. [...]

[...] Now he said, jokingly, “I have been drastically maligned this evening, and so I come to show our new friend here that I am a jolly fellow. [...] Now it has changed. [...]

[...] Now I ask you, how far do you think a flower would get if in the morning it turned its face toward the sky and said, ‘I demand the sun. And now I need rain. [...]

(Pause at 9:35; one of many.) The old Sumerians (spelled) are singing their chants now at the same time that Ruburt is trying to translate them now in your terms. [...] In one way of speaking you have (in quotes) “not yet” developed the proficiency, with sound that would now allow for the building of structures such as those we described in the last session.

(Those at Baalbek; the Pyramids, etc.) Yet those structures exist even in your now, bleed-throughs to make you think and in other terms to make you remember. Many physical structures have existed in your terms in the same space now occupied by your apartment house. [...]

(Then: “I did get a line just now,” she said. [...] Now I’m getting the feeling of an awful lot of people, chanting—thousands of them—this still has to do with the pyramids.”

Now. [...]

[...] By now Jane was starting to utter cries and to breathe quite heavily as she moved. [...] Now her right leg began moving more sideways to the right. [...]

[...] Now her left leg started moving sideways at a rapid pace. [...] “Now the right one has pulled away from leaning against the left one. [...]

(Now today, Tuesday, November 22, I got to 330 at 1:05 PM. [...]

[...] While Jane was having a cigarette, Georgia came in to tell us the projected closing of Surgical 3 was now off. [...]

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.

[...] Jane’s delivery was more vigorous by now, however.)

[...] The individual now realizes that he is indeed a living web of reality, and this becomes immediate conscious knowledge.

(Jane’s voice was still relatively quiet as she spoke for Seth, but her delivery was faster and much more intense now, and she used many gestures.)

[...] Now with artificial light this need not be the case. [...]

[...] With suggestion properly given, the body can recuperate in half the time now given to sleep. [...]

[...] And even those who think they now need more sleep than this would find that they did not, if all the time was not spent in one block. [...]

[...] Now, as a rule, it must wait, regardless of its condition, at least for some sixteen hours. [...]

[...] Jane and I have now received from them their checklist, made against Seth’s predictions and statements, and as soon as it is typed up the material will be inserted into a session.

I told you many sessions ago that the most healthy conditions could be achieved for the human organism if the body when sleeping lay in a north-south position, and I repeat this remark now.

[...] I have in mind some experiments that can be done in the future, but I do not suggest them now as you are busy enough. [...]

Now. [...]

(Very restless, rubbing eyes heavily.) Now listen carefully for a moment. It is possible in form two to project to a future event (eyes now open wide and steady, very dark) in which you will be involved, and by an act that you make in the projection, alter the course that this future will take. [...]

[...] Seth elaborates a bit here now, although Jane now sat holding the envelope in her lap, and with its short dimensions parallel to the floor.

Now, form number one will spring out of an ordinary dream state. [...]

[...] The paintings that you will paint exist now. [...]

He should now be able to perceive the Sumari physicians, and to become more aware of inward dynamics that ordinarily escape notice. It is also possible now that he can perceive me at a certain level of the dream state, and apart from himself.

(11:40.) Now, this is not dictation.

Ruburt by now should be able to see a certain “sequence,” as previously hardened muscles begin to loosen. [...]

Now he tried two or three times lately to get you out of your body, but you did not respond. [...]

(It might be added that this evening it had rained, and now the night was very hot and humid. [...] Her delivery was by now very slow.)

[...] Now she touched the left end of the tube as she held it before me.)

Now using the analogy again, in our mental enclosure we attempt to close off this channel of communication with the outer universe. [...]

Now this is what you attempt when you experiment with psychological time, when your communication comes through the inner rather than the outer senses. [...]

[...] Now. [...]

[...] Now by stout I do not mean monstrous, but overweight. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] Now as a rule these conditions occur only during this particular season. [...]

[...] That is why your suggestions of today are so vital, stating that you do have faith that Ruburt’s condition is now in the process of being healed in Framework 2, and that the results will show in Framework 1. It is important that you realize that the healing is now taking place in Framework 2 whether or not you see immediate results in any given day or not. [...]

Now: as I told you, Framework 2 is the creative medium that is responsible for physical life.

Practically speaking, now, negative beliefs often finally catch up with an individual, leading to various diseases. [...]

[...] It is far easier, basically speaking now, for the body to heal itself than for it not to. [...]

The neck area mentioned is also largely responsible for the arm angles and all of that is now beginning vital release. This is an overall body process, then, and you are both handling it now very well. [...]

Now: another personal session.

(9:44.) It is obvious that Ruburt’s body is responding, and it is responding eagerly to the approaches you are now using, because it is dealing with the entire picture. [...]

[...] He is quite open often, say, to making love, as you know now, but earlier you colored your reaction to him often through the pessimistic cast that both of you had allowed to slip over your perceptions.

I close now with sympathy and best wishes as always, and with some regret that I find myself in a position of corroborating this type of material. [...] And again, even now they serve to give you time for inner preparations.

(Jane now paused beside my table, her eyes closed. [...]

[...] We are doing well, but for now we find this sentence cannot be completed.

[...] Her voice was now quiet, and she paused often. [...]

The idea of—not perfection, now, but excellence—is presented to consciousness in many ways and in many guises, and the ideal of excellence serves as an impetus for consciousness, an excellence of pattern. [...] Members of your species are at various stages, and if you ignore stereotypes, historical connotations, then you can see traces of all of the areas of man’s so-called past development now in the present, and also examples of future development. [...]

(An added note: I now also realize that my not having an outside job helps Jane perpetuate her symptoms—the idea of “protecting” me against the world, etc. [...] I’m very afraid now that my not “working” signifies my tacit approval, to her, of her course of action. [...]

6. Now I feel I should be working at Aspects instead of poetry... I put up with that conflict and do poetry anyhow now and then; sloppy thinking in here and feel Tam won’t really go for poetry.

Now. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] I will tell you now however that within our own framework of sessions, and with what I call contact sessions with others, other books will materialize. [...]

Now. [...]

(Long pause.) Now, our friend Aerofranz (Tam Mossman, of Prentice-Hall) is indeed progressing. [...]

(10:07.) Now, my fine feathered friend: you never really trusted the verbal expression of feelings, while you trusted the verbal expression of ideas. [...] You felt it imperative to verbally express dissatisfaction or disapproval, generally, now—that is how words were used by your parents.

[...] However, I will discuss those reasons now.

[...] Many people spend hours, now and then, caressing each other’s bodies, massaging each other, or simply relaxing in such a way, whether or not a sexual encounter occurs or is expected.

Now let us look at yesterday (Sunday) morning, and for background remember the bodybuilders, who purposefully shut out all annoying distractions. [...]

If earlier, however, Ruburt had the erroneous idea that he was going too fast—or would or could—and had to restrain himself and to exert caution, now he received the medical prognosis, the “physical proof” that such was not the case—and in fact that the opposite was true: he was too slow. If our words could not convince him, or his own understanding grasp the truth, then you had the “truth” uttered with all the medical profession’s authority—and if once a doctor had told him years ago how excellent was his hearing, the medical profession now told him that his slowness [his thyroid deficiency], helped impair his hearing to an alarming degree. [...]

Now—

(Long pause at 7:46, one of many.) If Ruburt once found himself imagining that he must be strong and perfect enough to help solve everyone else’s problems, now he found himself relatively helpless, and “undefended” —that is, his physical condition put him in a situation certainly where he felt helpless. [...]

[...] Now his desires and intents have set it upon a healthy, reasonable setting, and the inner processes are automatically activated to bring about the normal quickening of his body, as before his intent led to the body’s automatic slowness. [...]

[...] Now you are both afraid of making a move, but it is much easier for Ruburt to adopt the physical symptoms of immobility, because of his own background. [...]

Now in your discussion you released some emotions, and this is beneficial, but you have not discussed such problems together in some time. [...]

[...] Now your physical situation is not entirely unbearable. [...]

[...] Except for our sessions there has been little freshness in your environments because you would find it, both of you now, threatening. [...]

Now—do either of you mind if we have a session?

[...] This annoyed you greatly, but now to some extent you identify with those leanings, and look down upon the garden when Ruburt does not find his way to follow the gardening rules.

[...] Now he compares this place for example to his childhood home, as subconsciously you compare it to yours, whether you know it or not. [...]

You should both have learned enough by now however to sense the psychic vitality or atmosphere of a dwelling. [...]

[...] Now in some cases it continues to operate, though in a slightly different fashion, at its own levels, closely connected to but apart from, physical existence. I am speaking now of survival situations.

Now. [...]

[...] What are now your five senses were once sense mechanisms or possibilities, existing through the entire surface of any individual cell.

[...] Now, my dear friend Joseph, it is partially because of this that some paintings, you see, generate strong emotional response, and outlast the artist.
