“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Actually, I think that the selves we know in normal life are only the three-dimensional actualizations of other source-selves from which we receive our energy and life. [...]

[...] “We are gods couched in creaturehood,” Seth says, given the ability to form our experience as our thoughts and feelings become actualized.

Seth first mentioned The Nature of Personal Reality in Session 608, April 5, 1972, only shortly after Rob and I had finished reading proofs for his previous book, Seth Speaks: The Eternal Validity of the Soul. He actually began dictation on April 10, 1972, but our personal reality was suddenly disturbed when we were caught in the flood caused by Tropical Storm Agnes. [...]

The suggestions we have given so far are predictives; they actually predict dire events of one kind or another, following a given original action.

[...] Actually, the belief itself may have changed a healthy genetic message into an unhealthy one. [...]

Actually, the dominant personality, in your terms, can be compared to the dominant entity. [...] As the personality on your plane actually changes, expands and grows to its potentialities, as it presents at various times varied images to the world (such as — if you’ll forgive me for using cliches — a smiling face, a sorrowful face), but is still basically the same personality, so on another level does the entity present at various times a varied appearance and speak in a different voice. [...]

The inner senses are actually the channels through which the entire composition of any plane is appreciated and maintained. [...] The mental enzymes are the tools, and the vitality is the actual material that forms the universe as a whole, the apparent divisions within it, the apparent boundaries between the systems and the diverse materials within each division. [...]

[...] Taking off at right angles involves another of your natural laws which are not actual laws but only seem to be from where you are. [...]

So strong is this tendency for vitality to change from one apparent form to another, that what you have here in your flying saucers is something that is actually not of your plane nor of the plane of its origin.

For out of a seemingly endless number of possibilities, our individual dreamer actually discriminates with great care, choosing only those dream objects or symbols that have meaning to him; and those dream objects that can best serve his purposes. [...]

[...] It does in actuality so exist. [...]

I want to make a point however, that the dream universe is as real and cohesive as your own, and that the same glue of telepathy holds it together, and gives it not only as much reality but validity in actual terms.

[...] If a man could actually focus his concentration upon those hidden, feared, mainly unknown, unrecognized elements in the physical universe upon which men simply cannot agree; if he could focus upon the dissimilarities rather than the similarities in the physical universe, he would wonder what gave anyone the idea that there was even one physical object upon which men could agree.

[...] Actually, then, we seek to wed the old environment with the new, using the psyche as a bridge between the two worlds. [...]

[...] Mentally, a part of you actually starts out upon each street — a projected mental image. [...]

In The Nature of Personal Reality I stated that the point of action occurs in the present.¹⁰ In Adventures in Consciousness Ruburt said, quite properly, that time experience actually splashed out from the present to form an apparent past and future.¹¹

[...] However, when you look “backward” at the planet you actually try to predict past behavior from the standpoint of the present.

The self is actually returning to more surface levels of consciousness, to check upon its environment. There is a transference of main energy in deeper dream states, from physical concentration to a mental concentration, actually quite separated from physical connections.

With yourself and Ruburt, I was amused to think that a scientist was conducting experiments on a serious level in order to discover whether or not dreams actually exist.

[...] Therefore children actually have more of this chemical propellant to use in the formation of dreams.

They are actually more conscious of their dreams, for the ego does not prevent awareness at this stage to the same degree that it will do later.

I am actually quite honored by my reception. [...]

[...] For the record, you understand that I am referring to egotistical material as that portion that is concerned with the outer camouflage-oriented personality, and that the stronger inner ego actually represents the power and ability behind the outer ego.

The actual telepathy contact with this alien intelligence will occur, your time I believe, not too far distant, perhaps by the year 2001. [...]

[...] We talked of making arrangements to measure the circumference of her fingers before and during this phenomena, to see if there is actually any physical enlargement.

[...] The session actually began at 8:55, when Jane rose and began to pace and dictate. [...]

The actual communication is not in words or pictures. [...]

[...] Part of the subconscious fantasy in the dream was of course valid, representing a watered-down version of the actual communication. [...]

[...] Actually there is choice, but the manipulation of camouflage is not developed along your lines. [...]

[...] They are actually oscillating, ever-moving, highly charged gestalts of EE units (pause), organized and maintained by collective efforts on the part of inner selves. [...]

[...] Each individual has his part to play in projecting these EE units into physical actuality. [...]

[...] She said she thought the delivery had lasted perhaps ten minutes, instead of the 25 it had actually taken. [...]

[...] In a healthy personality the inner self easily projects all experience into EE units, where they are translated into actuality. [...]

[...] I had no memory of actually leaving my body and moving into the bathroom.

(Either I heard my snoring actually increase in volume, or I focused upon it even more acutely. [...]

[...] You were ready to try again, however, and picked a slow and easy method, pleasant surroundings, to make it easy for you also, so that you could become familiar with the sensation before you actually did anything too adventurous with it.

If you are presently experiencing a life in which you have chosen high emphasis upon physical locomotion, for example, then through vague dream memories of flying you can be inspired toward, say, the invention of airplanes or rockets; but if you actually understand the fact that your own consciousness can indeed travel outside of the body, then the impetus toward physical developments in locomotion is not nearly so intense.

[...] The psyche attempts to get rid of them by projecting them into a specific area of the body; in the case of ulcers, the diverted energy goes into the actual production of the ulcer itself. [...] In other instances, the inhibited emotions can be projected outward into other persons, or as in the case of the York Beach images, very charged repressed energy can actually form pseudophysical images which present the personality with the physically materialized image of his fears.

[...] Actually, as I spoke for Seth I paced the room constantly, yet was hardly aware of doing so. [...]

[...] Certainly something significant had happened that night, but had we actually materialized the physical images of our hidden fears? [...]

[...] “If Seth’s right, they actually became the destructive images they had of themselves.”

In a very real manner events or objects are actually focal points where highly charged psychic impulses are transformed into something that can be physically perceived, a breakthrough into matter. [...]

Whether or not such an activation into physical actualization occurs or not, nonphysical portions of the self will to some extent react. [...]

Coming up the step today, though difficult, actually helped the right leg in its release. [...]

[...] Actually, for now, wearing shoes a good portion of the day is sufficient. [...]

[...] One disease may actually protect you from a stronger one, or from a detrimental course of action that you might otherwise follow. [...]

The inner senses are actually the channels through which the entire composition of any particular plane is appreciated and actually maintained. [...]

[...] Now, so strong is this tendency for vitality to change from one apparent form to another, that what you have here in your flying saucers is something that is actually, as you view it, not of your plane nor of the plane of its origin. [...] The actual structure of the craft is caught in a dilemma of form. [...]

This is actually not as bad an analogy as I first thought, in that oftentimes a particular personality will be like the right arm of the entity as a whole, while another particular personality will have both feet on the ground. [...]

These may come to the foreground in bad circumstances, and actually save the basic personality itself from what would certainly be disintegration. [...]

At no point can we actually say that one construction vanishes and another takes its place, but artificially we adopt certain points as past, present and future, for convenience. At some point, we agree that the physical construction ceases to be one thing and becomes another, but, actually, it still contains elements of the “past” construction and is already becoming the “next” one.

[...] Actually, I thought that if I saw her, hale and hearty as always, I’d feel better. [...]

[...] As the idea is in the process of being constructed onto the physical plane, it prepares the material world for its own actuality and creates the prerequisite conditions.

[...] Slowly, within its range of receptivity, it is given some choice in the actual construction of ideas into physical reality.

You think of your universe as having certain dimensions, and you want an explanation based more or less upon the proposition that those dimensions themselves made possible the origin—which must, however, have emerged from other larger dimensions of actuality than those contained in your universe itself. [...]

[...] “And here’s Seth saying that it’s actually happened that way—at least in some probable realities,” she said. [...]

[...] So far this year our country’s consumption of electricity has increased less than 2 percent, and it is now expected to actually decrease next year. [...]

[...] Actually, in various branches of mathematics, from the works of Euclid (the Greek mathematician who flourished around 300 B.C.) to modern information theory, I found many relationships with Seth’s ideas. [...]

[...] But the idea that each person tries to actualize the idealized good as much as they can through their daily lives — their work, social structures, and so forth — and in the meantime use certain criteria that will help them judge for themselves whether or not their actions are really in line with their ideals. The criteria are actually the ones given in the chapter. [...]

[...] Actually, I allowed myself to become aware mainly of Ruburt’s perceptions as he viewed the motion picture. [...]

So how can the well-meaning idealist know whether or not his good intent will lead to some actualization? [...]

[...] Actually, though, we won’t have any extra time; the finished manuscript of this book is due at Prentice-Hall in October, and will require much work in order to get it done by then. [...]

Probable events, experienced dream-wise, and quite valid in other areas of reality, become, say, false in your world, while the same kind of event, physically actualized, becomes true.

(10:35.) The initial battle, so to speak, took place on a dream level, then privately and en masse the race decided which portions of the event to actualize in physical terms. [...]

I said probabilities were realized (in the 653rd session in Chapter Fourteen) … and she is suddenly open to her (imagined) events as actualities. [...]

[...] On a subconscious basis Ruburt actually suggested his recent levitation dreams, with most effective results. [...]

[...] I seldom take this route in actuality, since this particular light is set to favor the heavy flow of traffic on Lake Street. [...]

In actuality the ego itself definitely benefits by allowing greater flexibility. [...]

[...] Actually what happens here is that the ego sells the personality short, out of fear, and denies those very abilities that are needed, and in practical terms.

Actually she was fairly inarticulate. [...]

[...] “Hopefully, as Seth explains more about the inner senses, we’ll understand more about what’s actually going on and learn some methods that will help us.”

[...] The painting, however, achieves a certain freedom from camouflage, although it cannot escape it, and actually hovers between realities in a way that no thoroughly camouflaged object could do. [...]

[...] For the individual involved, the camouflage actually has changed.
