“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You will never find me advocating a withdrawal from the outer world, advocating prejudice of any kind, advocating any activities that will be in any way injurious to health, or advocating a fanaticism, ever, on the part of the sessions themselves.

Commitment yes, fanatic commitment no. I certainly advocate that the body of the material be made available to the public, and indeed its purpose is to help mankind understand himself, so that he may understand the world which mirrors his inner reality.

[...] With some amusement we also considered the reactions of such radicals should they ever find themselves personally threatened or assaulted through the very “permissible” violence they advocate.
