“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You have both built an excellent edifice of a different kind, in Ruburt’s books and mine, and in the sessions themselves, an edifice most admirable, and one that is composed of a kind of material that on its own possesses, among other characteristics, automatic self-protective ones. [...]

There is, therefore, in those regards, no cause for self-punishment or penance (crying), or turmoil. [...]

[...] Seth had been his usual energetic self, in marked contrast to the cool and distant voice of his entity, so called.)

[...] Most of the family material is self-explanatory. [...]

[...] She is not certain of her own merit, and achieves her self-approval through your auspices.

This is a natural aspect, the self-protective principle that operates within earth life as you know it. [...]

Space suits are therefore an inadequate, clumsy memory of an inner ability to clothe the inner self with whatever camouflage is at hand. [...]

The inner self alone, at rest, in meditation, can at times glimpse portions of these inner realities that cannot be physically expressed. [...]

[...] Allegorically, he represented a warring faction of the self that fights against his own knowledge and is oriented in a highly physical manner. [...]

[...] He says: “When you look into yourself, the very effort involved extends the limitations of your consciousness, expands it, and allows the egotistical self to use abilities that it often does not realize it possesses.”

[...] As I told Jane when I got back to 330 around 3:00, all even the Infirmary wants is the money—that’s why they’re suddenly interested in her, because her name is moved up the list, and they know that somehow they’ll make a profit on the deal, either through self-pay, insurance, or whatnot. [...]

[...] He was aware of himself in a different way, so that, for example, his identification with the self did not stop where his skin stopped: He could follow it outward into the space about his form, and feel it merge with the atmosphere with a primal sense-experience that you have forgotten.

My remark has nothing to do with your accepted concepts of the unconscious portions of the self. [...]

[...] (Pause.) We are aware of what it means to you, and that you consider it a part of your identity, as if the self existed somewhere between two points, on a solid line. [...]

[...] Then the excitement hits again — of spying out the dreaming self and charting the strange environment in which it has its experience. [...]

[...] These are fascinating, not only because they are practical, but because they suggest the awesome abilities of the inner self to solve problems for us and to obtain information that we consider vital.

[...] Therefore you may sense in Ruburt at times confusing inclinations toward high independence in one area, and a self-denying dependence in another. [...]

[...] He interpreted this therefore as a punishment of the body, and a mortification in a way of the feminine self. [...]

[...] They also represent direct experience, as the inner self once more reenters the physical body. [...]

[...] It also causes feelings of self-disapproval, where a constant reminder of one’s background puts current situations at least into perspective. [...]

[...] Such a recourse, again, is only a desperate final one, but with his stubbornness it would be very final, and a means of self-defense.

On the one hand his own personality is enlarged in that the self structure includes far more perceptions than ordinarily. [...]

And the inner self that controls your breathing does not need you to consciously discipline it. [...]

[...] They were very effective—so much so that I could have easily fallen asleep; the relaxation I achieved reminded me of the chiropractic treatments I’d had years ago, or of the self-hypnosis effects I used to get any time I had a dental appointment. [...]

It is cast for you so that it bridges the perception of the psyche and the perception of the dreaming self. [...]
