“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] (Long pause, eyes closed.)

[...] (Pause, eyes closed.)

(Pause; groping; phonetic.) The last name, Mess-Peralla. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Then, you did not use your abilities properly and as a result they have only now reappeared. [...]

[...] That being exists in a psychological dimension (long pause), a spacious present, in which everything that was or is or will be (in your terms) is kept in immediate attention, poised in a divine context that is characterized (long pause, eyes closed) by such a brilliant concentration that the grandest and the lowliest, the largest and the smallest, are equally held in a multiloving constant focus.

(Long pause.) Your consciousness will survive your body’s death, but it will also take on another kind of form—a form that is itself composed of “units of consciousness.” [...] The divine gestalt, however, is expressed in such a way that its quality (pause) is undiluted. [...]

(Long pause at 9:55.) In the beginning, then, there was a subjective world that became objective. [...]

(Pause.) Nor can this concept fit into your versions of good and evil, as I will explain later in this book. [...]

[...] Master events are those (long pause) whose main activity takes place in inner dimensions. (Long pause.) Such events are t-o-o (spelled) multidimensional to appear clearly in your reality, so that you see or experience only parts of them. [...]

(Pause at 9:31.) I said that in your terms (underlined) all universes were created (underlined) simultaneously—at the same time. [...]

(Long pause in an intent delivery.) The entire idea of evolution, of course, requires strict adherence to the concept of continuing time, and the changes that time brings, and such concepts can at best provide the most surface kind of explanation for the existence of your species or any other.

In a fashion man also is equipped with the ability to initiate actions on a nonphysical level that then become physical and continue to wind in and out of (pause) both realities, entwining dream events with historic ones, in such a fashion that the original nonphysical origins [are] often forgotten. [...]

[...] (Pause.) I put back Ruburt’s curls….

(Pause.) Love is propelled by all of the elements of natural aggression, and it is powerful; yet because you have made such divisions between good and evil, love appears to be weak and violence strong. [...]

(Long pause at 9:46.) The criminal element represents the individual’s own feared and unfaced aggressions. [...]

[...] (Pause.) If you do not understand that you create your own reality, then you may assign all good results to a personified god, and need the existence of a devil to explain the undesirable reality. [...]

[...] The new method, when she sat quietly, with the added ingredient of the long pauses, made blocking probably more difficult. The pauses interrupted the sense of the material to some degree. [...]

[...] Her voice was normal, her delivery rather rapid but with pauses. [...]

[...] Some of the pauses between phrases were indeed quite long.)

(Jane used several long pauses delivering the above paragraph. [...]

Dictation: It may seem to some readers that the subject matter of this book (pause) is far divorced from any discussion of the specific development of psychic abilities.

[...] (Pause.) Impulses also provide the natural impetus toward those patterns of behavior that serve you best, so that while certain impulses may bunch up toward physical activity, say, others, seemingly contradictory, will lead toward quiet contemplation, so that overall certain balances are maintained.

(Pause.) End of dictation.

[...] (Long pause.) Consciousness predates all of its manifestations.

(Long pause.) When you are born you possess a group of attitudes toward yourself and toward life. [...] You can see (long pause) the results in life all about you, though in animals or plants these are experienced as a matter of feelings rather than, say, as thoughts or attitudes.

(4:17.) It is difficult to translate such (pause) biological and psychological material into the words of any language, even though these inbred psychological prerequisites form a kind of language of their own. [...]

(Long pause at 4:29, eyes half closed. [...]

[...] She used many pauses, few of them long however.

[...] [Pause.] “Rather badly. [...]

[...] Pause. [...]

(“There are two roads that run parallel,” [pause at 9:29] “for a little way, then one crosses the other. [...]

(Long pause at 9:27.) In a way, physically you are a molecular language that communicates to others, but a language with its own peculiarities, as if speaking an accepted tongue you spoke with a biological accent that carried its own flavor and meaning.

(Long pause.) You read yourselves from the top of the page to the bottom, or from what you think of as the beginning to the end. [...]

[...] In the language of the self that you speak, these encounters are like the implied pauses in your verbal language. [...]

(Long pause at 10:47.) When you ask: “Who am I?” you are trying to read yourself as if you were a simple sentence already written. [...]

[...] It sets up hypotheses (pause), and its very existence is dependent upon a lack of available knowledge—knowledge that it seeks to discover.

(Long pause.) Let us first of all return momentarily to the subject of the reasoning mind, its uses and characteristics. [...]

[...] We are dealing with natural, direct cognition as it exists before and after (pause) man’s experience with the reasoning mind.

(9:33.) Man’s reasoning mind, however, with its fascinating capacity for logic and deduction, and for observation, rests upon (pause) a direct cognition—a direct cognition that powers his thoughts, that makes thinking itself possible. [...]

(After a pause: “Is there more to that message?”)

(“Do you have any more granddaughters?” [After a pause])

(“Is there more to that answer?” After a pause.)

(“Is there more to that answer?” After a pause.)

[...] (Pause.) There has been dabbling in occult matters, and some chicanery. [...] (Pause.) The nearest approximation here: C H A R… (spelling unfinished), Charteris. (Pause. [...]

M A N A U P (pause) A U L T the last name. [...] (Pause.) Some connection here with the first historical personality whom we have run across. [...]

[...] (Pause.) And here we do find abilities shown, ignored and misused through a succession of lives. [...]

(Pause.) Some years ago, Ruburt had an experience in which he glimpsed in the center of the living room a strange form. [...]

[...] The form represented (long pause) the personified, accumulated positive energies that were working to his advantage at that time, that provided him protection, but that also automatically worked to the benefit of his life and projects.

(Long pause, one of many in a much slower delivery.) I do not want to become involved in a confusion of terms. [...]

(Long pause.) The ideas for inventions, tools or products exist mentally, to be brought into activation whenever they are required, say, by circumstances, or by the environment.

[...] (Pause.)

[...] (Two-minute pause.)

[...] (Pause.)

(Pause.) The man had a connection with Poughkeepsie (NY). [...]

(Pause.) This is difficult to verbalize. (Pause.) It was a state when the species became aware of its own thoughts as its own thoughts, and became conscious of the self who thinks. [...]

[...] They cannot imagine (pause), life’s “initial” creative source, for in their terms it would remind them of creativity’s feminine basis. [...]

(Pause.) You must understand I know that the terms male and female here are being used as they are generally understood, and have nothing to do with the basic characteristics of either sex.

[...] (Pause.) This represented a state of consciousness, the point at which the species began to think and feel for itself, when it approached a certain state of consciousness in which it dared exert its own creativity.

[...] (Long pause.) These apply to Wollheim or Fell. [...] (Pause.)

(Jane now took a pause that lasted at least two minutes. [...]

[...] (Another long pause.) A school with a bell. [...]

[...] She was aware of the first long pause, lasting at least two minutes. [...]

(Pause.) This is difficult to verbalize. (Pause.) It was a state when the species became aware of its own thoughts as its own thoughts, and became conscious of the self who thinks. [...]

[...] They cannot imagine (pause) life’s “initial” creative source, for in their terms it would remind them of creativity’s feminine basis.

(Pause.) You must understand, I know, that the terms “male” and “female” here are being used as they are generally understood, and have nothing to do with the basic characteristics of either sex. [...]

[...] (Pause.) This represented a state of consciousness, the point at which the species began to think and feel for itself, when it approached a certain state of consciousness in which it dared exert its own creativity.

[...] (Pause.) He feels he has the prerogative to use power in any way he chooses. [...] (Pause.) They believe that their search for answers, however, justifies almost any means, or sacrifices, not only on their parts but on the parts of others. [...]

[...] Basically (pause), a fanatic believes that he is powerless.

[...] (Pause.) Generally speaking in your society, power is considered a male attribute. [...]

(Pause.) Fanatics exist because of the great gap between an idealized good and an exaggerated version of its opposite. [...]

(Pause.) I am not sure, though I suspect male. [...] (Pause.) If you have no more questions I suggest your break.

(Jane began speaking in a rather unusual jerky manner, pausing after every couple of words. [...]

[...] The peculiar pauses had more or less continued, although they decreased when she resumed at 9:26.)

[...] She held it to her forehead and paused but briefly.)

(Pause at 11:00.) Trust no person who tells you that you are evil or guilty by reason of your nature or your physical existence, or any such dogma. [...] (Long pause, eyes closed.) Do not follow those who tell you that you must do penance, in whatever form. [...]

(Pause at 9:47.) If you affirm the basic grace of your being, then this will automatically weaken the beliefs you have that are contrary to that principle. [...]

(Pause at 10:06. [...]

[...] What information and knowledge I have I try to give to you through Ruburt and Joseph (pause), who are parts of me in your space and time. [...]
