“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

For you look now at Ruburt. There are indeed, now, in this room there are five physical Ruburts. [...]

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

(Seth now made a reference to Lorraine by her entity name.)

[...] Now here we see a temporary distortion, not an organic one. [...]

[...] We will now return to our other discussions.

It should be easier now for you to understand this vitality, since we have already spoken in terms of reality existing by means of intensities. [...]

I would also suggest Joseph, that will all due respects, that within your crowded schedule you find time now and then for your psychological time experiments. [...]

[...] You should be able to experience now, directly, the sort of distance to which I have referred.

Now the physical organism as such is capable of that kind of reality system. [...] Such bodies did not age to the extent now, that yours do, and enjoyed the greatest ease and sense of belonging with the environment.

Now in the case of an animal who hibernates, the body is in the same state. [...] The body that you have now is not the one that you had 10 years ago; its physical composition has died completely many times since your birth, but, again, your consciousness bridges those gaps (with gestures). They could be accepted instead, in which case it would seem to you that you were, say, a reincarnated self at age 7 (intently), or 14 or 21. [...]

(She wanted Seth to discuss a couple of her own questions, now that he had “Unknown” Reality underway again, so I suggested we ask for that material now. [...]

Now, dictation: Consciousness operates with what you may call code (spelled) systems. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] Now, it is very difficult to tell you simply what happens at physical death, for the conditions vary considerably, according to the individual; his abilities and beliefs will largely determine what happens in those terms.

Now when you leave one form for the other, it of course is in the trance state. [...]

[...] Now there are classes indeed where the newly dead are instructed. [...]

[...] Jane hadn’t finished reading this part of the book when Seth suggested, in the 554th session for October 19, that she lay the book aside: “Let Jung go for now.” [...]

Now: We will begin dictation.

Now: Our next chapter will be called: “Reincarnation, Dreams, and the Hidden Male and Female Within the Self.”

(By now Jane’s pace had quickened a good deal.)

Now: a few comments.

[...] The earlier questions about fear of the world, for example, reinforced to some extent, now, generalized fears, without for example specific incidents connected to them.

Now: in Framework 1 you often use too much force to get what you want. [...]

[...] He gets upset and irritated with the chair, because now he is getting around the house more, and realizes that walking would be the natural way to do so—where before he was content to be in one place.

[...] But the important thing is that that desire is now present, and will certainly bear results — good ones. She’s now expressing serious desires about mobility that I can’t remember her voicing for many years. [...]

[...] Jane did much better now when she went back to reading the session. [...]

Now: I bid you another fond good afternoon.

Now I may or may not return, according to those rhythms of which I speak — but know that I am present and approachable.

Now certainly you recall our material on the inner senses. (Pause, eyes closed.) Try for a moment to consider these in terms of a fourth-dimensional personality structure… We are forced now and then to slow up, so that Ruburt can get proper words.

[...] It was a revelation type dream, except that now I can’t remember anymore about it. [...]

[...] You perceive but the lowest point of its reality, so I will tell you now that the various stars and planets and heavenly bodies that you observe in your universe do indeed exist as such, but only within your system.

Now, I will tell you further that these dimensions merely represent various capacities of consciousness. [...]

(It might be added here that John Bradley, our drug-salesman friend from Williamsport, PA, who has been a witness several times now and has read some of the material, visited us on Tuesday, May 5, the day before this session was held. [...] We have had several witnesses since then however, so she told John his friend would be welcome now; John may make arrangements as to the date by mail.)

[...] This is not the now-familiar sensation of swelling in the fingers and the palm, but rather one of actual physical increase in size. [...]

As far as Ruburt is concerned, he did correctly receive a short message recently from me, and I will go into this now.

Through Ruburt’s subconscious I picked up the old legend of the Tower of Babel, and yet this is precisely what you are attempting now in space travel. [...]

[...] Now, her already acute hearing began to magnify sounds — the rustle of cellophane as she opened a pack of cigarettes, the quality of my voice as I talked to our cat, Willy, the noise of my handling the newspaper. [...]

[...] By now her voice had acquired a hard-to-define richer quality, joyous but subdued.

[...] Now she understands it and can deal with it as belief, and not as a condition of reality over which she has no control.

[...] Now there is a difference between freely experimenting with and enjoying various styles of dress, attitudes and behavior — and finding yourself “lost” in a compulsion to change your appearance, attitude and behavior. [...]

[...] Two sessions a week is a very strict and heavy schedule, as you probably know for yourselves by now.

[...] Now however, whenever you want time off within reason—my reason—you shall have it.

Now at various times you have questioned what the entity actually was, and wondered how fragments, or fragment personalities, could ever become entities, if they ever did.

[...] Now, although the cells maintain individuality and do not lose any of their abilities, in this formation into cells there is actually a pooling of individual consciousness of atoms and molecules into, and to form, an individual cellular consciousness. [...]

Ruburt held back from the recognition of desire, physical desire, for many reasons, and subconsciously now that he has begun listening to his inner feelings, he has been using this as a sort of test case.

[...] He is saying, really, is it safe to admit all feelings now? [...]

Now you may take your break, or I will continue.

[...] Jane’s delivery had been good throughout the session, and once again she was relaxed now that it was over. Seth’s reference to the poor and nationalized health care referred to material Jane had picked up from him during the day; The poor were actually better off as they are now, without such a national health-care plan, for as it is they’re isolated from and immune to a number of ills they would start falling prey to if they could afford to pay for such treatment—that is, if the costs were paid for them. [...]

[...] Now I’m in the process of writing a long letter to Larry Dowler, of the Yale University Library, and this activity showed up also in Seth’s bleedthroughs and comments.)

[...] Now that is true and not true, as you know—for ideally, how marvelous it would be if each person could indeed understand those balances and artistic lacks of balances when they appear.

[...] It would seem to you that all of the books were marred, in that manner, now, or it would seem to Ruburt that nothing was wrong at all, in that manner. [...]

Dictation: Now: You may be quite able to see through the distortions of conventional Christianity. [...] Now you may believe in the theories of Buddhism, for example, or of another Eastern philosophy.

Now give us a moment… Dictation: The serpent is the symbol of the deepest knowledge within creaturehood; it also contains the impetus to rise above or beyond itself in certain respects. [...]

In terms of simple biological function, you now had a species no longer completely dependent upon instinct, yet still with all the natural built-in desires for survival, and the appearance within it of a mind able to make decisions and distinctions.

Now: This new kind of consciousness brought with it the open mirror of memory in which past joy and pain could be recalled, and so the realization of mortal death became more immediate than it was with the animals.

[...] We’re keeping a list of all questions, with the daily answers, and are now seeing some notable shifts in answers, indicating improved communication between her conscious and unconscious selves.

Now: a private session.

[...] People of no other age, historically speaking, have had to contend with the dimensions of public exposure that are now possible.

Now, to some extent, in pragmatic terms, you must look at your backgrounds. [...]

The sessions I gave on spontaneity and work should be most helpful now, as long as the fears are now being admitted. [...]

[...] She added that it touched something within, leading to feelings of hopelessness—and that now she had to get out of them before she could have the session. [...]

Now a private session, not for publication.

[...] It is the overemphasis upon work and career—overemphasis, now, that brings about or triggers the fears behind the difficulties.

(10:45 PM.) Now. [...]

[...] I am speaking now of habitual ways of handling conscious angry thoughts. [...]

The Nebene characteristics, now creatively used, then also mitigated against Ruburt’s easy expression of such feelings, and he did tie up some characteristics of Nebene with his mother’s scorn. [...]

(A thought: I now realize that Jane put the same interpretation on her own work—namely, the psychic work. [...]

The overly-disciplined self could not be hidden now. [...] It has gradually let itself fit in now, let itself integrate, and in so doing the body has been relived of symptoms.

Now Joseph (pause), neither of you should overlook the fact that in one way or another, and regardless of the psychic development, such a crisis point (Jane’s symptoms) would have appeared in Ruburt’s life as a result of personal characteristics, present-life background, and past-life characteristics.

Now, you reacted strongly though your activity was not physical.

[...] Throughout this extra-long delivery I had thought she was in a deep state, and she now confirmed this; she had but a vague memory of what she had said. [...]

(In talking about his voyages, Seth said that we would have to bear with Ruburt now, because Ruburt—Jane—knew very little about geography; this I can vouch for. Jane now spoke quite slowly, with her head down and her eyes closed, whereas before her eyes had opened often and her manner had been very animated and cheerful.

[...] Seth said that as in the case of John Bradley, Bill should become more and more aware of such experiences, now that he is more familiar with these sessions.

[...] He now confirmed that data and gave us a little more information. [...]

[...] The II, he told us now, meant that this was the second ship by that name. [...]

Now, I do intend to give you further instructions and I will. The drugs now given allow experience in one main direction only. [...]

Now in the drug situation the state of consciousness desired is brought about by altering chemical properties. [...]

[...] This does not seem to be a problem now, for the travelers are new at this. [...]

[...] I am comparing now the drug and drugless experiences at their best.
