“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I am going to suggest your break. I would first of all suggest, and only suggest, that the four of you continue an association, as I believe you will all benefit. [...]

[...] I suggest that this time you open the door, and bid that they be seated.

[...] I suggest your first break, and again may I say that I enjoy your rainy evening. [...]

These suggestions, as you know, were far from extreme. The exercises that I suggested Ruburt take also aid him in utilizing negative ions. [...]

The suggestion itself, psychologically, also prevents you from simply being swept away, willy-nilly, by the collective energy. You must understand that use of such energy does in no way suggest monopolizing it. [...]

[...] Since all things have an electrical and chemical reality, the food that you eat is also important, and it is for this reason that I made certain suggestions concerning your diet.

Now the suggestion to carry your waking consciousness into the sleep state is of particular value in conscious projections, if you will use it. [...]

Any change or abnormality in the room will serve to gain your attention, if you give the proper suggestions. [...]

[...] It was almost a nightmare—in fact Jane woke me out of it to prevent this seeming reaction on my part, I was fairly sure the dream concerned my father’s approaching death, but certain elements in it were similar enough to Seth’s suggestions about contacting Dr. Pietra, above, to make me tell Jane about it—on the off chance the dream had been more than it seemed.

[...] I would suggest that Ruburt set aside one day a week for the marketing of his own manuscripts.

[...] This is a suggestion, and that is all.

I suggest your break.

[...] I have some definite proposals, and I suggest that you take advantage of them. I am mainly going to suggest the use of certain techniques with which you are quite familiar. [...]

[...] Several evenings a week, therefore, I suggest that the two of you pursue a period of psychic activity, as per Ruburt’s library, though with whatever variations suggest themselves. [...]

[...] While you have regular daytime hours, I suggest the following pattern.

[...] I am not suggesting that he run full steam ahead at every moment. I am suggesting that he use the full force of his available energy for every task at hand. [...]

[...] However the suggestions must be followed for it to be permanent. If the suggestions are followed there will be no return of symptoms, nor new ones adopted. [...]

If my suggestions here are followed the results will be almost immediate. [...]

[...] I suggest that the suggestions I have given Philip be read carefully and followed.

[...] His point of approach will be best if it follows closely the following suggestions.

[...] I have mentioned that we will have a party session in your new house, and I suggest that Philip be invited, for what will be a truly hilarious session.

[...] The feeling is much like that she experienced following our first suggestion period, she added, where my suggestions produced a different, better sense of bodily weight, even in the soles of her feet. It appears this evening that those suggestions are still operating—or Jane has simply learned from them, and her body is responding accordingly.)

[...] I want him to give another suggestion for a Turkish reincarnational dream, and I want him to suggest that he see his life in context with others that are equally his own—for from them he can draw greater understanding, energy, and the knowledge that physical vitality, and mental and psychic vitality, go quite well hand in hand. [...]

(We were preparing to have a suggestion session this afternoon at naptime, when I became upset as a result of our conversation. [...]

The flowing hair suggests motion to him also. [...] Now I suggest you take a break and we will turn to other matters. [...]

[...] Now I suggest that you playfully encourage him to increased motion. [...]

[...] I also gave suggestion on my part credit for saving, in the nick of time, what could have been a much more stringent situation, possibly averting disablement.)

[...] Ruburt should make an effort to follow through on whatever suggestions I give, for they are meant to facilitate his good spirits and recovery. [...] Now we bid you a fond good evening —but remember those suggestions I mentioned earlier, for Ruburt can really utilize them now. [...]

[...] She spoke as, following Seth’s suggestions, we sat at the round card table in the living room, waiting to see what might develop. [...]

[...] But a major reason for our reducing the nurses’ visits is to get rid of the constant negative suggestions they unwittingly broadcast, all in the name of trying to be helpful. [...]

I am not speaking idly, or speaking to place suggestions in your mind. [...] I suggest only that you work from 9:30 to 12:30, from 2:00 until 4:30, and an hour or so, as is your habit, in the evening; and that those hours be maintained. I suggest that you make more of an effort to plan your Friday evenings, so that they are not evenings by default.

My suggestions in that area, as per Fridays, were simply meant as an example. I was not suggesting each Friday, but some time set aside for sociality, not simply with the Gallaghers. [...]

[...] In that light, I have a suggestion only, even considering it will be beneficial, whether or not you follow it.

[...] The two books that Ruburt (Jane) usually suggests should be read and used by her. [...]

The two books that Ruburt usually suggests are definitely recommended, and should be seriously followed as far as the family is concerned. [...]

[...] The exercises suggested in both of those books will help her. [...]

The foot (when Jane lost a large part of a callous)is an excellent sign, and it also shows you both what suggestion can do. You mentioned the foot specifically, reminding him several times, and this reinforced the suggestions.

[...] I want to give you, therefore some more immediate suggestions. [...]

Now with Ruburt, not necessarily generally, specific suggestions work well, when they are not overdone for example, and the progress then serves as an extra reinforcement. [...]

[...] She must have been ready to make the suggestion about the pillow, we thought. [...]

[...] It is an excellent idea to look at old sessions with a view toward picking up suggestions that I have given for constructive action, and following them.

I have a suggestion, and it is that you mentally speak to what I will call “the basic creative self”—and remember, these are terms. [...]

[...] He has added a suggestion to that effect that is a good one.

[...] Later I will add to the suggestions given. [...]

[...] The suggestions I have made will help release these, and allow you to utilize them. [...]

[...] These suggestions will give you, again, a clearing. [...]

[...] I am not suggesting that you turn your life upside down, necessarily, and work at night. [...]

[...] I will have more suggestions for the week that are important.

The suggestions on trusting the body must be continued, for the body’s healing process now follows those beliefs. [...]

[...] All suggestions as given last week stand.

There are many other natural and spontaneous kinds of comprehension that can also result from the waking and sleeping rhythms that I have suggested. The unconscious, the color black, and death all have strongly negative connotations in which the inner self is feared; the dream state is mistrusted and often suggests thoughts of both death and/or evil. [...]

[...] This does not mean that in all dreams that particular kind of awareness is achieved, but it is often accomplished within the suggested wake-sleep pattern.

[...] In the kind of sleep patterns suggested, optimum conditions are set up. [...]

(Seth had some interesting things to say about using suggestion. The kernel of thought here is that it is important to use whatever suggestions we want to, daily; he stressed the importance of not missing a day. He explained that in a given period of say, thirty days, the suggestions on perhaps but three or four days within that period would be really effective, and that as of now we have no way of knowing the best days. So if we miss a day, we run a chance of missing out on a particularly effective day for suggestion. Seth said that on occasion suggestion will reach all levels of the personality, that our voice will be heard throughout the personality, and that effective action will follow. [...]

[...] He also said Jane should use suggestion to teach herself to sleep without a pillow. [...]

[...] Suggestion re the hands would help, according to Seth.

Then, toward the end of the session, Seth made a suggestion about our living quarters. [...] Seth suggested that we shield the door to the hallway with a room divider.

[...] I suggest the bookcases as a permanent arrangement. These are, after all, only logical suggestions to make your daily lives more comfortable, and therefore free your energies. [...]

[...] I suggest a brief break, and do not crack up into pieces. [...]
