“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now: I bid you another fond good afternoon.

[...] Those senses possess their own variances, so that without any word such as “now” or “then,” the creatures are able to know quite accurately how many living creatures are in the vicinity, how long they have been there (pause) — and their experience with time is one that follows the seasons in such a way that they have formed a wordless, fairly accurate picture of the world, including navigational direction.

[...] Now you are considered quite respectable (pause), that you have survived so many changes within that publishing organization.

Your dream about the return to Sayre, and the more spacious surroundings, means also that as you now change the past and the future, so you have changed the past: you view it in a more extended light, so that it becomes less narrow and constricting. [...]

[...] Now, these have been referred to by some as astral planes. [...]

Now you are looking at the personality with the ego as your starting point. [...]

Now, it directs and organizes this action, as for example your physical personality directs and organizes large portions of your physical image. [...]

Now. [...]

Now: (Long pause.) Personal fears never exist as a result of personal experience alone. [...]

[...] Those truths have indeed, and as of now, helped millions of people. [...]

Now: your friend Tam quite happily gives readings with Ruburt’s experience behind him, and he says “I simply say, I take no responsibility for what James says.” [...]

Your immediate situation and all past ones, regardless of personal fears, which should not be discounted, result from Ruburt’s until-now determined decision to stand critically apart from his intuitional knowledge. [...]

[...] (Firecrackers next door.) This applies now privately to some of the people that you know, but in particular it applies to both of you now. [...] (More fireworks at 8:46, but Seth wasn’t bothered.) These periods involve accelerations, sensed while they may still be invisible, and it is this kind of period that you have just now entered into. I will have far more to say whenever you decide our next session should be—tomorrow evening or whenever, as you embark upon your new saga—and for now I bid you a fond good evening. [...]

[...] We agreed that from now on the sessions, and Jane’s own sessions, will have to come first in our lives, even before books or deadlines, so we take it from there. [...]

[...] A time and a rhythm occurred in which you both knew that therapeutic ventures, started now for many reasons could take quicker route—that is, you sensed upon a new probability. [...]

[...] She hasn’t walked a great deal lately, but our emphasis is now on trusting the body’s own wisdom as to when it wants to perform, and what it wants to do. [...]

Now: the creative abilities deal primarily with Framework 2 orientation.

[...] The creative person often is not wanted at a job, because their creativity by contrast with others’ behavior shows the vast difference between what I will now call joyful work and the usual variety.

[...] This is very simply put for now.

[...] Although I’d felt slightly better yesterday I’d been taking baking soda often for my stomach for several days, and it seemed now that the feeling of pressure, or gas, perhaps, was getting the best of me. [...]

[...] At this stage I’d try anything right now. [...]

[...] Now here are the insights I picked up starting at 11:20 this morning, as I went about daily business:

Now—

And: “I’m pissed off,” Jane said now by way of further irritation. [...]

Now: Dictation.

[...] It could become as secondary to life as, say, the Roman Catholic Church is now, losing its hold upon world dominance, losing its claim of being the one official arbiter of reality.

Now, the overall purpose supposedly is the utilization of energy—a humanitarian project meant to bring light and warmth to millions of homes. [...]

(I had several questions for Seth: they’d grown out of our activities in recent days, and I read them to Jane now.

Now: in answer to, in partial answer to, your question concerning conscious knowledge of the body’s workings, I have several things to say.

Early man related to his insides, then, symbolically in a way that is now quite outside of your comprehension. [...]

[...] In many cases, now, meaning not in all, such feelings set up quite invisible but definite alienations, or lacks of balance, between the heart and the brain, so that delicate relationships between them are upset. [...]

(I’d planned to mow grass for a few minutes after the session—it was dusk by now—but I had to wait. So did Jane: “Now that he said that. [...]

[...] I also tried to keep in mind Seth’s recent reference to her own natural rhythms, thinking that if she didn’t want sessions just now, that might actually be part of the healing process.

[...] This would save a trip to St. Joseph’s Hospital next Monday, and perhaps speed things up a bit, for I felt that Jane could now use a boost in thyroid activity through a stronger dose of supplement, Synthroid. [...]

[...] Jane said now, smoking a cigarette as I sat with her at the card table. [...]

As of now they are not married, and the woman is giving more than the man. [...]

(By now Willy was at it again, chasing more insects.)

There is something here we may as well consider now, having to do with the cooperation existing between all living creatures in the construction of the physical universe. [...]

(Now Willy sat quietly at the open window, staring out into the night.)

Had he left the gallery when his novel was published, he would by now have one and a half times his present income from writing. That is, his yearly income would exceed what it is now.

[...] Ruburt is indeed correct, and I am concerned for you both, in that by now you should be able to put this material to practical ends—that is, by now these basic ideas should make your practical existence improve.

When man realizes that he creates his own image now, he will not find it so startling to believe that he creates other images in other times. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] In a sense they are different people now than they were when “Unknown” Reality was begun (some 14 months ago). However, many of my readers are also different people now than they were when they began to read this work.

In a probable reality, a Ruburt and a Joseph now live there. [...]

[...] “I’ve been doing this book for so long by now,” Jane commented, “that I don’t know if it’s a great big sprawling thing without any order, or what. [...]

[...] The species is now entering such a phase, a period in which it will come more into its own. [...]

[...] She used to think that “if I used my body all the way, I wouldn’t work — which is hysterical, because now I do hardly anything.” [...] I suggested that instead she realize that her good left leg is now in a position to straighten out. [...] She does now think that it’s safe to recover physically.

Now I bid you another fond good afternoon.

[...] I had an extensive filling put in it a few weeks ago, and was now concerned lest it act up enough so that I would be forced to have it out. [...]

[...] The symptoms are now not simply being bandaged over. [...]

Now I bid you a fond and a pleasant good evening.

(Jane is now showing signs of change in her legs, which we are most pleased about. [...]

Now, good evening.

[...] The ligaments are trying to move now toward unrestricted motion.

Ruburt’s condition now, then, involves the whole body in a natural fashion. [...]

(10:06.) Now give us a moment.... [...]

[...] Yet now it seemed that even beneath that scattered performance Jane’s psyche had felt stronger ties of some kind — at least with Del, if not with her mother — than either of us had suspected; that at least some part of her had sensed a sort of biological or creature loss upon the death of a blood relative. [...] Even now she could only link the release of her very creative Sumari attributes, the singing poetry, and prose [as embodied in her novel, Oversoul Seven, for instance], with Seth’s reference to psychic families as well as physical ones.

Now (Seth told us last night) you can expand the functions of any particular family group, or you can cut it down, by deciding how precise you want to be. [...]

Now these families fall generally into certain groups. [...]

[...] Nor have I added to that list for a long time now. [...]

[...] Now as she prepared for Seth to come through she sat upright on the couch. [...]

Now: we have been having a rather concentrated group of sessions, and it is quite natural that Ruburt should want to take some time out as he has, so that he can assimilate the material. [...]

(Now Jane began to lean back on the couch; she looked to be much more comfortable.)

[...] On that day Tam Mossman of Prentice-Hall called Sue Watkins to ask her permission to publish Conversations With Seth in two volumes; Sue’s account of Jane’s ESP classes is now too long for a single book. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) At the time of this awakening man did experience, then, some sense of separation from his dream body, and from his own inner reality—the world of his dreams—but he was still far more aware of that subjective existence than you are now.

The practical nature of his own dreams was also more apparent, for again, his dreams sent him precise visions as to where food might be located, for example, and for some centuries there were human migrations of a kind that now you see the geese make. [...]

[...] The snake was then—in your terms, now (underlined)—both a feminine and masculine symbol. [...]

Now: I have given some—not all—of this material before, but now you can put the understanding to better advantage. [...]

Now give us a moment.... [...] Now: in certain terms physical activity—sports—intrigued you. [...]

Now. [...]

[...] “But I can’t get it now,” she said. [...]

(It was now time for the 46th Dr. Instream experiment. [...] Her eyes were now closed, her hands raised to her face, her pace broken by many short pauses and a few long ones. [...]

Now. [...]

(I now told Jane that as the session progressed I had more and more difficulty keeping “awake.” [...]

Now. [...]
