“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Pause.) Your spontaneous selves in that area, relatively speaking, now, (underlined twice) were allowed their expressions. [...]

(Pause at 10:29.) Once begun, the sessions happen. [...]

[...] (A one-minute pause.) Do you have questions on that material?

[...] (Pause.) The position of one cannot be ascertained ahead of time with any certainty in your framework of reference, say in the situation of the proton, because the proton is receiving such a barrage of information that is not available to you at a conscious level, and that is not available to your instruments.

[...] She used a few pauses.)

[...] The pace was slower now, with more frequent pauses. [...]

(Jane now took a long pause. [...]

(Another long pause. [...]

(Long pause.) In that regard his symptoms developed more along the lines of exerting caution rather than, say, seeking protection. (Long pause.)It is as if someone on his own developed a spectacular amazing fast craft, and built a secondary system—a backup system—that allowed for great braking power in case this was necessary to offset the craft’s own speed. [...]

(Long pause.) He felt it his duty to examine his psychic material with supercritical force, since it seemed to come from the other side of consciousness, so to speak, and since it presented such a different picture of all aspects of reality. (Pause.) His symptoms served other purposes as well, though, as has been given often. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) No most hypnotic fanatic leads any group of people astray. [...]

(Long pause at 9:54.) Ideas of using considerable caution have been with him for that matter before the sessions began, when he recognized his own energy, the ease with which he could encounter people. [...]

(Long pause at 9:14.) Now how do you practically interpret such an intention? [...] They cannot be patterned upon other people’s. (Long pause.) He has his own way of dealing with details—an instinctive manner. [...]

[...] Everyone has healing abilities (long pause), but Ruburt, basically speaking, is interested in the theoretical and philosophical concerns that underlie the condition of health. [...]

[...] The nebulous nature of the “psychic” has served to help build up a picture of an unrealistic superself (long pause), mentioned earlier, that is supposed to perform a dazzling array of activities, solving everyone’s problems, displaying all of the psychic abilities at once, from healing to finding a lost kitten. [...]

(Long pause.) Ruburt’s material about Prentice-Hall was quite correct. [...]

(Pause at 10:01.) This exercise is a mental and biological doorway that can expand both your concepts of yourself and reality. [...] (Pause.) For example, in a series of dreams you may try out various solutions to a given problem, and choose one of these.¹ That choice becomes your physical reality.

(Pause.) When, at this point now, of mankind’s development, his emerging unconscious knowledge is denied by his institutions, then it will rise up despite those institutions, and annihilate them. (Pause.) Cult after cult will emerge, each unrestrained by the use of reason, because reason will have denied the existence of rampant unconscious knowledge, disorganized and feeling only its own ancient force.

[...] (Pause.) This method is even more effective if you choose from your past a scene in which a choice was involved that was important to you.

[...] (Long pause.) The consciousness that you know can indeed now emerge into even greater realization of itself, but not by obsessively defending its old position. [...]

[...] She used pauses but they were usually brief.)

[...] (Pause briefly.)

(Pause at 10:09.) Impressions again, perhaps a round object in his hand. [...]

[...] (Pause.)

I do not want you to think that the answers to your questions lie prepackaged in the dream state, either, relatively inaccessible except to those (long pause) who possess unique talents or some secretive knowledge of the world of the occult. [...]

(Much slower after a long pause at 9:10:) Such considerations should naturally spark within you far vaster and yet far more intimate insights—insights in whose light the hazy rhetoric of [...]

(Long pause at 9:22, then intently yet humorously:) When you stand at your physical doorstep you look inward at an incredible glowing psychological venture. [...]

(Long pause.) End of dictation. [...]

(Long pause. [...]

[...] (Pause.)

[...] (Long pause.) All That Is is a source of infinite and unending simultaneous action. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) All That Is is alive within the least of itself, aware within for example the molecule. [...]

(Long pause at 7:40.) In the meantime, Rob and I often thought that this very book would never be completed. [...] (Long pause.) I did continue with the sessions, of course. [...]

(Long pause at 7:34.) His ideas had somehow led me to the point where the very dimensions of experience should change. [...]

(Long pause at 7:51.) Our vitality wants to express itself. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Multidimensional concepts cannot be received, nor interpreted, at this point by the physical brain. [...] (Pause.)

[...] (Pause.) Connection with drawing or maps or geography.

[...] (Pause.) In regard to another question, having to do with the frameworks left behind. [...]

[...] (Pause.) As thoughts set up traces and new patterns, new electrical pathways in the physical brain, it then becomes easier for the brain to entertain these habitual lines of thought.

One of the women in this gathering wears a large blue or gray brooch (pause) that I believe he has noticed. (Pause.) He has been or very shortly will be, informed of a change in his teaching schedule that he did not expect or anticipate, having to do with the morning hours of Tuesday and Thursday, I believe, though I am not certain of the precise two days. [...] (Pause.)

[...] (Pause.) Or he misplaced it earlier and went to look for it today. [...] A holder perhaps, or a lighter, but of that nature. (Pause.)

(Since Seth paused after giving voice to the question, I answered, since I had been writing at a fast pace. [...]

[...] (Long pause.)

[...] (Pause.) A knock on the door. (Pause at 10:20.) This is at his home, and a caller, a male, younger than he, a fairly young male, perhaps a student. (Pause.)

[...] (Pause.) I have the impression of a miniature antique, of Victorian style, and it is scrolled. (Pause.) The legs, I believe, are scrolled. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Some kind of misrepresentation. [...] (Pause.)

(Jane paused and smiled. [...]

(Jane now took a long pause. The above material had been broken by many pauses.)

(Jane took a longish pause at 10:00. Her pace was broken by many short pauses, but was still good.)

(Jane paused at 10:09. [...] She gave the material on the envelope with many short pauses.)

[...] Some of her pauses lasted well over a minute. [...]

[...] (Long pause. [...]

(Pause.) For a while you did not feel that the way was clear, psychologically, between yourself and Ruburt. [...]

[...] She said she felt “something” go out to me from her body while Seth paused during his delivery... [...]

[...] The intellect (long pause, eyes closed) disapproves of certain feelings and emotions because the intellect, allied with (pause) the social aspects of reality, thinks in terms of a public face, or respectability, of its position with other adults in the world. [...]

(Pause at 9:20.) In either case, however, portions of the self are hampered, restrained, and their expression drastically reduced, and there are bound to be repercussions. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) When united, the intellect and intuitions do well. [...]

(Long pause.) By the very fact that a portion of the self is kept, say, in a sort of protective custody, it is kept in isolation, which means that it is not kept up on current events. [...]

Therefore, a kind of momentary gap appeared between his life and his living of it—a pause and a hesitation (pause) became obvious between his life and what he would do with it, as his condition showed just before the hospital hiatus. [...]

(Pause at 9:10.) To such a degree, of course, the affair was, then, therapeutic. (Pause.) 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 model, and therefore no more under the compulsion to live up to such a psychological bondage (all with some emphasis). [...]

(Long pause at 9:05.) Give us a moment.... [...]

(Long pause at 9:18.) Give us a moment.... [...]

[...] (Pause.) It is not given “to breaking down.” [...]

(Long pause.) As I mentioned, the beliefs of your society are everywhere embodied in all of its organizations and professions. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) I do not mean to appear unconcerned, either, Joseph, about your own inconvenience at such times, or the breaking of the sleep pattern. [...]

I will give you more on the sinful self (long pause), and I myself like to have our material smoothly flowing in your directions, so that the sinful self material will naturally come when it is most naturally meant and needed. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) The electromagnetic and inner sound patterns are impinged upon by certain kinds of light. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) There is a definite connection, then, with the nature of such images and the way in which your body itself is composed.

(Pause at 9:25.) Electrons, atoms, and molecules¹ all have their independent interior sound and light values. [...]

Now: (Pause.) The nerves are also composed of the same kind of interior structures as mentioned earlier (in this chapter): around, or rather from which, the physical nerves form. [...]

(Jane’s Seth voice was stronger than usual — indeed, almost loud at times, with the usual pauses.)

(Long pause at 4:16.) Only when they pursue some death-defying career do such individuals feel safe enough to relax otherwise and live a fairly normal life outside of their death-defying careers.

[...] (Long pause.) People “come down” with colds, or the flu, or some other social disease that is supposed to be passed from one individual to another — yet overall these may be very healthy individuals. [...]

[...] It regards all activity as experience, as a momentary condition of life (pause), as a balancing situation. [...]

(Long pause.) He was reactivating old beliefs with their physical representation in the body. [...] (Long pause.) It was an excellent decision to trust the body’s activities, to take the opportunity to use the episode as a case in point, a change of heart. [...]

[...] (Long pause, leaning to the right, eyes closed.) I purposely wait for such lapses as these to come and go—and again, they do represent the state of the thyroid. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) Massage and warm water is of benefit—but of greatest benefit of course is the trust in the body’s processes, for then many healing procedures can continue, while fear of course slows down their effects. [...]
