“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Last night Peggy Gallagher told us that she is following the suggestions given by Seth in the unscheduled 238th session, but hasn’t noticed any improvement yet in the “bursitis” in her neck and left shoulder and arm. She is continuing to follow the suggestions however. [...]

Now I suggest your first break.

Now I suggest your break.

I suggest your break. [...]

“I would not be surprised if you wondered about the part that suggestion might play in such a demonstration. … Generally speaking, however, no physical object can be constructed, and no action can occur, without what you are pleased to call suggestion. [...] Behind every action and every construction there is indeed suggestion.

“There is no more truth and no more falsehood in saying that my appearance in the doorway was caused by suggestion than to say that this room and everything in it is caused by suggestion. [...]

“I suggest your break. [...]

“Suggestion is no more and no less than an inner willingness and consent to allow a particular action to occur; and this consent is the trigger which sets off the subconscious mechanisms that allow you to construct inner data into physical reality.

[...] Jane suggested I get a checking account. [...]

[...] This may be necessary — even vital — to my own well-being, although I must be careful about giving myself negative suggestions over it.

Unfortunately, in your society you need every good suggestion you can get, to offset fears and negative conditioning. Ruburt needs time to give himself a few suggestions in the morning, to start up his journal again, even to paint if he wants in a framework in which he allows himself that much freedom. [...]

[...] If he tells you that there is a pink elephant in front of you, then you will see it and believe it is there, and act according to the suggestions given. [...]

In many instances, therefore, modern physicians are inadequate witch doctors who have forgotten their craft — hypnotists who no longer believe in the power of healing, and whose suggestions bring about other diseases which are diagnosed in advance.

They constantly surround themselves with negative suggestions. [...]

[...] Now if you are in poor health, and have a physician, you had better continue going to him, because you still rely on that system of belief — but use these exercises as supplements to build up your own sense of inner health, and to protect you against any negative suggestions given by your doctor. [...]

(Wednesday and Thursday nights, January 19 & 20, Jane gave herself suggestions that she would have a great abundance of energy. She usually uses suggestion each night, but this time she wanted a little something extra.

I suggest a break before our Instream material.

[...] It grew out of earlier suggestions, and I would say the end result represented a fine example of spontaneous creative power at its best. [...]

[...] I strongly suggested a vacation, and it is because prior conditions were still operating that the two of you did not overcome your obstacles and leave.

The change of bedroom color is highly important, and this is why I suggested it. [...]

[...] I would (underlined) suggest a change in the kitchen if any were remotely possible. [...]

I suggest we end the session. [...]

(Here Seth refers to a painting I began yesterday, in line with approach two of the suggestions he gave me in the last, 456th session, I am following his suggestions and they are working well.)

I do not want to make any suggestions now, for what I am thinking of will come from you.

You suggested that Ruburt put his records in one place for quite sound intuitive reasons. [...]

[...] In a low mood any individual is much more likely to react to pessimistic suggestions, and to interpret data in the same manner. [...]

[...] Do you recall the suggestions I gave you?

[...] Other suggestions: tell yourself that a portion of you will remain alert while your body sleeps.

[...] Ruburt’s own old suggestion—be critical in your dreams of your dreams. [...]

[...] You have our Lady of Florence to thank that there are classes here, for Ruburt would not think of them in the beginning, and it was our friend, who you think is too intellectual and not intuitional, who suggested the classes in the first place to Ruburt and opened his mind so that he would follow my suggestions. [...]

Now, I suggest that you all take your break. [...]

[...] You are all remiss in one point here in that you give our Lady of Florence further negative suggestions that reinforce her own distrust of her intuitive self; so let us see that attitude suspended, and I will suspend the session. [...]

I suggest your break.

[...] (Pause.) R. B. And another, and the impression of a road or a path, or of lines suggesting a road or a path.

[...] The label bears parallel oval lines which can suggest a road or a path.

[...] Jane suggested that the “something shady” reference can be the dimly-lit room in which we sat Saturday evening. [...]

[...] This is not a specific suggestion but an example of what I mean.

[...] I suggest in your case therefore an approach using imagery, although there will be several ways of trying to get given information, as you see.

Many sessions ago I gave you some information concerning painting the viewpoint, and suggestions also as to how to approach a natural object, to become it. [...]

All of these suggestions tend to activate your creative and psychic abilities, and that is why I have given them to you together. [...]

(Jane’s suggestion that she can consciously know whatever she needs to know is a good one. [...] Last night after the suggestion, she received a good insight, and was able to examine it instead of repressing it. [...]

(Jane today revived what is evidently an excellent suggestion—to the effect that “Whatever I need to know will rise to my consciousness.” She used this suggestion as she lay down for a nap. [...]

[...] He felt therefore that he caused your illness, that in a way you were punishing him for the frivolousness that made him suggest you leave a conventional background and your parents, and go with his father in Florida.

[...] Jane at first said during our talk that she must hate many things—but it seems that hate would only be a mask for fear— hence the suggestion that instead of asking herself what she hates, a more basic question is “What do I fear?”

[...] You tell him to use suggestion, which is a mental tool, and evade the physical contact which to him is proof of the physical divorce, and a reassertion of the mental being valued and the physical denied.

Now I suggested that we move our sessions back here for the reasons given, but also because I knew that to Ruburt this meant an implied greater sense of togetherness on your parts, and of secrecy. [...]

[...] I suggested frequently the up and down movements and the running, because he must set those legs into activity. [...]

In a strange fashion the symptoms also served to stress what he felt you were both trying to deny—his femininity, in that he felt at a very unconscious level that they made him helpless and in need of someone to lean upon—a mute call for support to you, and at that level he was outraged that instead of giving him your hand you would offer mental suggestions.

I will go into this in a few moments, and suggest a brief break.

The Middle Ages represented such a break, and I also suggest a break.

I suggest a brief break.

I suggest a break. [...]

[...] Jane lay down for a rest, and gave herself positive suggestions concerning the session. [...]

[...] I am even, and this is quite unusual for me, hesitant at bringing him to discipline here, since he is usually so concerned about subconscious distortion that I do not want to imprint the suggestion in his mind.

I suggest a brief break, as I have a feeling that you are already past the breaking point.

[...] I strongly suggest, however, that he does not in the future read the material on the night of a session. [...]

On February 1, 1968, I sent Dreams to Doubleday on suggestion of Reverend Crosson. [...]

I suggest your break.

I will, then, end our session with my heartiest regards to you both; and may I remind Ruburt again of the suggestion I made concerning his bed.

(11:05 P.M. See the 519th session, in which Seth suggests that Jane try turning our bed to a north-south position. [...]

[...] I heartily suggest that he seriously begin to tackle the smoking problem, for his health in many small but significant ways will benefit.

I here suggest your first break.

I am here going to suggest another brief break, and then we will continue.

[...] I suggested some changes. [...] You suggested going to Sayre. [...]

[...] You are to concentrate upon the creative suggestions I have given you, and not upon the difficulties.
