“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now: Had Ruburt gone to a doctor or a faith healer when we began our last group of sessions, and then in a matter of a week or so found himself able again to walk with his [typing] table across the kitchen floor, some thirteen or fourteen steps perhaps, where before three were his uncomfortable limit, he might have attributed the improvement to a doctor’s treatment or to a faith healer’s ability — but he would have been impressed. He would have been impressed also with the greater obvious motion of his feet, the feelings of release in the legs now spreading to the back and shoulders.

Now (pause): Man likes to think of himself as the caretaker of nature and the world. [...]

[...] Now in some important respects the reasoning mind is like the government in this analogy. [...]

[...] Now the people might finally revolt, or they will take certain steps to see that their freedom is restored, and so the body’s cells will do the same.

Now: Good evening.

Now: Christ was not crucified — therefore he did not resurrect, coming out of the tomb, nor did he then ascend into heaven. [...]

(Pause.) Now in the facts of history, there was no crucifixion, resurrection, or ascension. [...]

There is nothing that happened in those times that is not happening now in your own: You have numberless gurus, people who seemingly perform miracles (and some do). [...]

Now: another Doctor Seth session.

[...] The body has set up its own rhythms of recovery, since it is now sure that that is what Ruburt wants, and his attitude toward his body has greatly changed for the better.

[...] The important thing is not to worry, and also Ruburt’s condition now is such that the body seeks more and more activity.

[...] Now you want to begin to encourage through your questions the repressed feelings also of hope, of expression, even of natural flamboyant behavior. [...]

(“Number twenty: If everything exists now, or at once, how can it be added to through constant creation and expansion? Or to put it another way: If we are constantly creating, how can All That Is exist as complete now?”)

Now: Do you want to begin with questions or with personal material?

Now in that infinite becoming, there are states that you would call perfected, but had creativity rested within them, all of experience would be destined to grind to a halt. [...]

Now you may take your break.

Now. [...]

[...] She had begun the session without her glasses but now put them on.

(Again in the same rather flat and deliberate voice, although it was a bit stronger now, Jane resumed at 9:34.)

Now during the dream drama the inner self may focus at various, or at one of various subconscious areas which it uses as a point of departure. [...]

(10:45.) Now: despite all that is going on, Ruburt’s condition is persistently improving. [...] Now he rose above them. [...]

[...] In a way you felt free enough, now, to bring those of your own into the open again. [...]

[...] (Very heartily:) Now I bid you a fond good evening.

Now, on the personal material, encouragement from you is highly important.

As he is feeding himself now, have him think of his thoughts as nourishment, so that he feeds himself constructive nourishing thoughts. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] Now do as you wish.

That is, I thought it could all happen so easily and naturally and painlessly that there would be no one point where you could say, “Now she lives and now she doesn’t.”

If earlier, however, Ruburt had the erroneous idea that he was going too fast—or would or could—and had to restrain himself and 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. [...] 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) had helped impair his hearing to an alarming degree.

One small way in which I wanted to begin that quest was for me to teach Jane to write—print, actually—with her left hand, which functions much better now than her right one does. [...] Now I always do crossword puzzles that way.)

[...] Ruburt is now far more willing to make certain changes in his life than he was earlier, and he sees himself more as one of a living congregation of creatures—less isolated than before, stripped down from the superperfect (subconscious) model, and therefore no more under the compulsion to live up to such a psychological bondage. [...]

I am please that we will now enter into the secondary stage of your education. [...]

We may as well carry this further right now, in spite of certain dangers of misinterpretation that could, but I hope will not, result. [...]

(By now, Jane was speaking at a slower rate, with quite a few rather long pauses between phrases and/or sentences.)

(Now Jane walked back and forth in the couple of feet of space between our long narrow coffee table and the divan, gesturing as she talked.)

(Quite slowly:) You will begin with where you are and joyfully start to expand those attributes that you have now, without expecting them to appear full-blown. [...]

[...] I suggest you do it now. [...]

[...] Waking up now, he strolled over to Jane as she sat in her rocker speaking for Seth. [...]

Now: Dictation: Ruburt’s own beliefs in the nature of his consciousness helped bring about these sessions.

“Now, Mark, you cannot see Joseph’s glass, nor can he see yours,” Seth said. [...] Now there is an infinitesimal point where Mark’s perspective and Ruburt’s overlap. [...]

For one who felt poorly at the start of the session, Jane now said she felt fine. [...] Our cat, Willie, now became active. [...]

But as you will see, we form our physical reality not only now and after death, but through at least several lifetimes, as we learn to translate energy and idea into experience. We not only form our environment now, but ahead of time we choose our parents and circumstances. [...]

Seth says that not only do we form our own reality now, but we will continue to do so after physical death, so it is of the utmost importance that we understand the connection between thought and reality.

I hope that you will not find that he is now bigheaded, as well as pigheaded. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] Now, chemically the physical body does need to dream. [...]

[...] She now told me that she had been upset by the delay in starting the session. [...]

(Jane now motioned toward the door. Recovering my wits by now and realizing that the name Mark referred to Bill’s entity name, given to us by Seth at our seance, I went to the door and opened it. [...]

(By now I was completely puzzled; and Jane, evidently not wanting to speak on her own yet, looked at me and shrugged. [...]

[...] However, and I have emphasized this at times, because of our materials and methods of communication such distortions will almost of necessity occur now and then. [...]

[...] So we must simply work as we are and make the best of it for now.

Now. [...]

(“On just what, now?”)

[...] Now the age issue is connected to you and your work. [...]

Now give us a moment.

[...] It would be better for now (underlined) that he concentrates upon this—his work and full activities. [...]

Now you may take your break or end the session as you prefer.

(For one who felt poorly at the start of the session, Jane now said she felt fine. [...] Our cat, Willy, now became active as break wore on, and as he has done for most recent sessions. [...]

[...] Now she lifted it to show Bill and me. [...]

(By now Jane’s voice was even lower and stronger than it had been a minute ago. [...]

Now Mark, you cannot see Joseph’s glass, nor can he see your glass. [...]

(No session was held last Monday night because Jane was so relaxed, just as she was now. [...] By now she can’t say why the episode had been so frightening.

[...] Now yours is, say, the poetry of painting. Now in the philosophical area we are discussing, you are also dealing with imaginative leaps, with casts of mind and spirit that are as rare as true artistic ability is. [...]

Now.

You have been taught for centuries in one way or another that repression, generally speaking, now, was all in all a natural, good, social and moral requirement, that expression was dangerous and must be harnessed and channeled because it was believed so thoroughly that man’s natural capacities led him toward destructive rather than positive behavior. [...]

(Long pause at 9:55.) Because the two of you are so involved, your own position is bound to change, and in years previous—to some extent, now—you also felt that certain portions of Ruburt’s personality should indeed be held in protective custody. [...] Now you are actively acting as a trusted party, working for the release of the portion held in relative captivity, and your assurances at this point can be extremely important. [...]

Now: Your documentary rather neatly shows two portions of the world’s mind operating at odds, rather than in complementary ways—almost as if they were surgically separated, or somehow functionally impaired, as in many ways they have been through misunderstandings throughout the years. [...]

Now under many situations people, again, behave in the same manner. [...]

[...] The American response—generally, now, speaking—to Iranian emotionalism is to become still more self-righteously reasonable, cooler, more superior. [...]

Now there have been several developments here in class with these two (Vera and Theodore) and there are other developments which should come in this class. [...]

[...] We do, however, have a very good relationship, as I’m sure you know by now. [...]

[...] For the problem must be solved now or later. [...]

Now when I speak to you as I have this evening, my purpose, my one and main purpose, is to let you sense the endless vitality that is mine, though you, in conventional terms, would designate me by some ridiculous word—survival personality, as Ruburt says, or “spirit” or “dead.” [...]

[...] She is now on vacation, and we trust that the reduced schedule will do away with Eleanor’s visits. [...]

[...] Hopefully, this new synthesis is taking place now, and will accelerate as Jane responds. [...]

(Now in a stronger voice than usual, with little tremor and at a good pace:)

Now—
