“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In any case the “troublesome” material remained (long pause), relatively inactive more or less—unless and until certain situations arose, unless and until his curiosity and ability led him to actively challenge those ideas while also in a situation where the natural fear of abandonment might be implied or suggested. [...]

[...] Our material, and his own abilities, represented various kinds of trials, development and growth, and also implied various kinds of threats of different strengths throughout the years. [...]

This artistic sense of responsibility was given a thicker coat by what seemed to be psychic responsibility: it seemed to Ruburt that he should use his abilities primarily to help others, or to help solve the world’s problems, or to cast some light into man’s condition. [...]

If creativity itself was sometimes considered irresponsible, or “feminine,” or adolescent, then psychic activity, he discovered, seemed to be held in an even murkier light, in which the abilities themselves were sometimes thought of not as creative enhancements but as symptoms of feminine weakness and irresponsibility. [...]

[...] Ruburt’s idea was still one of controlling those instincts and his “animal” abilities. [...]

Reincarnationally now, quite legitimate, and harking back to what I told you about the release of your own abilities. [...]

[...] They recognize you as a different breed than themselves, with different interests and abilities that they rather envy. [...]

[...] Writing would get him the fullest use of his abilities and fulfillment, his own approval and yours, financial security, and hopefully some kind of success in terms of a reputation. [...]

[...] You should each be ashamed of yourselves for ignoring the abilities, the freedoms and the pleasures that you have, and instead concentrating on the one area in which lacks are apparent, while at the same time not utilizing the methods I have given you to fully help yourselves in that area—and instead focusing your imagination to continue the situation.

[...] Concentrate upon your abilities, and on the methods you have now available that, used, will automatically dissolve the problem.

Many do not know how to use their creative abilities. Many do not have specific abilities. [...]

[...] The very nature of this book, the method of its creation and delivery, in themselves should clearly point out the fact that human personality has far more abilities than those usually ascribed to it. [...] As this book was conceived and written by a nonphysical personality, and then made physical, so do each of you have access to greater abilities and methods of communication than those usually accepted.

[...] Your own behavior, customs, sciences, arts, and disciplines are in a way uniquely yours, yet they also provide glimpses into the ways in which various groupings of abilities can be used to probe into the “unknown” reality.

[...] Within it are a few hints about certain more general aspects of her abilities, and those can be presented here. [...]

[...] You may personally have the ability to be a fine athlete, for example. [...] His or her own desires and beliefs activate certain abilities and ignore others.

Put more simply from another viewpoint, each of you as you know yourselves has certain abilities and characteristics of your own. You experience reality through the cast of those abilities and characteristics, but you also stamp the universe with that particular imprint of individuality that is your own, and you attract those events that are suited to your nature and no other.

[...] In the light of the material obtained in the two deleted sessions earlier this week, we believe this to be a significant step forward, a mark of Jane’s increasing confidence in her psychic ability, and wholehearted acceptance we believe to be necessary.

[...] In the light of the material obtained in the two regular sessions earlier this week, we believe this to be a significant step forward; a mark of Jane’s increasing confidence in her psychic ability, and wholehearted acceptance we believe to be necessary. [...]

[...] If Ruburt tries to do physical things the ability to do them will come. [...]

[...] The session does automatically add its own sense of infinite devotedness by gathering together the healing abilities, which have their own soothing effect.

[...] Instead we form matter in order to operate in three-dimensional reality, develop our abilities and help others. [...]

[...] Even the lowest particle retains its individuality and its abilities [through this cooperation] are multiplied a millionfold.

[...] As individualized energy approaches your particular field, it expresses itself to the best of its ability within it. [...]

“It represents the appearance that these abilities of mine take on when closely connected with the physical plane. [...]

[...] You also wanted to wed your abilities in the same manner. [...]

[...] I am intent, however, about a new beginning, a new dedication, so that your own purposes become clearer, and your abilities better used. [...]

[...] You simply told him that was beneath his abilities, without understanding the sense of loneliness, or the fear generated by conventionalized beliefs, which before his own experiences he did not encounter. [...]

A man who makes a statue uses his conscious mind, his creative abilities, his physical body, and the inner resources of his own being.

Unfortunately, the more you rely upon exterior methods the more it seems you must rely upon them, and the less you trust your own natural abilities. [...]

[...] (Saturday, October 21, 1967, at a table-tipping session.) I told you that Ruburt’s abilities were developing along several new lines, and this is the beginning of one of them.

[...] Therefore his own abilities grow. [...]

This may hardly be original thinking here, but these proliferations of consciousness imply some pretty fantastic abilities on the part of we humans—for such developments show that even though we live as small creatures within the incredible richness of an overall consciousness, or All That Is, still our actions can result in that great consciousness exploring new areas of itself. Quite awesome creative abilities on our part, I’d say, and ones that unknowingly we take for granted. [...]

[...] You also wanted Ruburt to be aware of your concern, hoping that the concern would serve to accelerate his own determination and ability, and to trigger his resources so that a medical visit would not indeed be necessary.

[...] It makes you uncertain of your abilities, erodes your self-confidence, and prevents you from appreciating your accomplishments—for you feel you must in some way disapprove of them. [...]
