“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Action begins from within, and is a result of inner vitality inherent within all realities. [...]

[...] All of these points are extremely important, and if I speak slowly it is to insure words as nearly correct as possible. [...]

[...] It is a by-product of any reality, and a part of all reality. [...]

He is to realize that if he has any duty or purpose in life, it is indeed to express those very abilities (all very emphatically), since those abilities are so natural in his makeup, they also possess their own protective mechanisms. He must realize that he is free to express his poetic, psychic nature, and to follow wherever it leads — since it is indeed his natural pathway into existence, and his most intimate connection with the universe, and with All That Is.

[...] Also thought women disliked her — feared that she was after their men, and all kinds of things.

[...] All of this engendered some emotional reactions, but no tears. [...]

[...] But all in all the regularity should be maintained, and the suggestion I have given will allow both schedule and freedom from schedule. [...]

[...] There are indeed a body of symbols that are more or less basic within all kinds of perception—bridgeworks from one form of perception to another, since beneath all perceiving systems there is consciousness. [...]

[...] Any perception is first of all a psychic one that is then translated in ways meaningful to the physical organism. [...]

(I’d just finished typing the last few pages for Monday night’s session, and I asked Jane what she thought of my final note: I’d speculated about any reincarnational connections that might tie her abilities to speak for Seth, without help of any modern kind, to the abilities ancient man had displayed, when, according to Seth, he’d been able to carry all of his history with him mentally. As ancient man had lived without the news media we’re so used to, so does Jane speak for Seth without all of that modern help. [...]

[...] The species contains within itself all of the necessary spontaneous attributes that are necessary to form a civilization, for example. (Pause.) All of your reasoned activities — your governments, societies, arts, religions and sciences — are the physical realization, of course, of inner capacities, capacities that are inherent in man’s structure. [...]

Now: Ruburt’s skill is as ancient as man is, and indeed all of your arts, sciences, and cultural achievements are the offshoots of (pause) spontaneous mental and biological processes.

They have evolved beyond all probabilities as we understand them, yet outside of probabilities they still have existence. [...] Yet also all of this and all of probabilities does not minimize nor deny the individual, for it is the individual upon whom all else rests, and it is from the basis of the individual that all entities have their existence, and from which all kinds of evolutions spring.

[...] All probabilities and all possibilities have their origin in notime.

[...] This will all be explained in good time. [...]

[...] The rational approach works quite well in certain situations, such as mass production of goods, or in certain kinds of scientific measurements — but all in all the rational method, as it is understood and used, does not work as an overall approach to life, or in the solving of problems that involve subjective rather than objective measurements or calculations.

[...] All of this involves relating to reality in a more natural, and therefore magical, fashion. [...]

[...] You have held on to those methods to varying degrees, since after all it seems that the world shares them. [...]

[...] He is also however, those portions of himself who are far less developed for they all exist as one and there are really no separations, and all the portions of himself that were less developed are aware of this correspondence. [...]

[...] Time has open ends in all directions or such a thing as probabilities would not exist. [...]

Now, I will let you all take a break and I will return in an unmoment. [...]

[...] What you call God is the sum of all consciousness and yet the whole is more than the sum of its parts. God is more than the sum of all personalities, and yet all personalities is what He is. [...] This force is part of the innate knowledge within all consciousness and it is a part of the God within you. [...]

[...] And with Ruburt’s eyes closed there is some difficulty for I must focus psychically in order to find you as you think you are now, for I see all of you. I see all of what you are. [...]

[...] You are indeed a part of All That Is. [...]

(10:00.) In your terms it seems that all of that had to happen before the house was put up for sale, so that Joseph, passing by only a few days ago, could see the sign and decide to look at the house. In much more basic terms all events exist at once, even as atoms and molecules appear at once in all probable positions. [...]

[...] You accept all data that fit your theories, and ignore clues to the contrary. Yet underneath it all you are significance-making creatures, pattern-formers, immersed in time but basically apart from it, and so new insights come into your awareness and literally change the quality of any given reality at any given time.

[...] This small private experience is repeated endlessly with different variations in all areas of daily living — that is, probable events constantly interact, and (intently) through their interaction you end up with one recognized series of episodes that you accept, called physical reality.

Study, listen, try to do all, read all, everything.

[...] All of this was such a novel experience for us that we did not know whether to probe deeper, or continue. [...]

(“Frank Watts, why are you telling us all this?”)

In that mental system, therefore, each detail is known with all of its probable variations, and in its relationship to all of the other multitudinous and indeed infinite living details that compose any given day. [...]

[...] Any of the pills are all right, taken now and then—but the stronger ones provide overstimulations when taken often, and these caused Ruburt’s difficulties. [...] Otherwise, all I can do is to stress what I have said before. [...]

All realities are the result of idea construction. [...]

[...] There is an ever-so-minute alteration of gravity forces in the neighborhood of all of these points, even of the subordinate ones, and all the so-called physical laws to some extent or another will be found to have a wavering effect in these neighborhoods. The subordinate points also serve in a way as supports, as structural intensifications within the unseen fabric of energy that forms all realities and manifestations. [...]

(Long pause at 9:29.) There are four absolute coordinate points that intersect all realities. [...]

[...] There are better places than others to build houses or structures — points where health and vitality are strengthened, where, other things being equal, plants will grow and flourish and where all beneficial conditions seem to meet.

(4:30.) For all of man’s fear of disease, however, the species has never been destroyed by it, and life has continued to function with an overall stability, despite what certainly seems to be the constant harassment and threat of illness and disease. The same is true, generally speaking, of all species. Plants and insects fit into this larger picture, as do all fish and fowl.

[...] I don’t actually think we said anything brand new, but it was good to review it all. [...]

Before we discuss the human situation more specifically in relationship to health and “dis-ease” — let us consider the so-called states of health and disease as they apply in planetary terms, and as they operate in all species. [...]

(Long pause.) All of nature demonstrates this almost miraculous seeming simplicity. Plants and animals and all of life’s aspects take it quite for granted that the sun will shine and the rains will fall in the way best conducive to all creatures. [...]

[...] After finishing the session, Jane told me now that she’d also been very blue last night, and “really got scared” this morning at the pain in her side, “imagining all sorts of things.” [...]

In a basic way, it is against nature’s purposes to contemplate a dire future, for all of nature operates on the premise that the future is assured. [...]

([Jane:] “I got this fantastic image of everybody spontaneously forming all these seasons and everything. And there was a tremendous effort involved individually to get spring going—to get the buds out...that the good things that we do that we don’t realize...you know we think of war—and we see all the evil we do; and that the good things we do, we often don’t realize—and that we actually form the seasons—the spring, the other seasons; and that the earth itself, the physical earth, is like the Garden of Eden in our subconscious. [...] Different chemicals come out through our systems that we don’t even know of that change the atmosphere and so forth and brings all this about. [...]

Now all of you—each in your own way—contribute. For you can consider the body of the earth and all that you know—the trees and the seasons and the sky—to some extent as your own contribution—the combination of spontaneity and discipline that gives fruit to the earth. [...]

[...] Surely all of you consider yourselves somewhat superior to a piece of bacon, and you do not identify with it. [...]

[...] His weaknesses were out in the open, dramatically presented, and from that point, unless he chose death he could only go forward: for suddenly he felt that there was after all some (underlined) room to move, that achievements were possible, where before all achievements seemed beside the point in the face of his expected superhuman activity. [...]

(In other words, I’m happy to say, our creativity is on the rise, showing itself more and more in spite of—or perhaps because of —all that’s happened with us lately. [...]

[...] [We’d also had an unannounced visitor—a Korean woman lawyer—from Los Angeles the other day.] Naturally we’re turning away all visitors because of the time element. [...]

(“All right.”)

The waking state, then, has its source in the dream state, and all of the objects, environment, and experience that are familiar to you in the waking state also originate in that inner dimension.

[...] You must understand that I am not saying that you are passive, fleeting dreamers, lost in some divine mind, but that you are the unique creative manifestations of a divine intelligence whose creativity is responsible for all realities, which are themselves endowed with creative abilities of their own, with the potential and desire for fulfillment—inheritors indeed of the divine processes themselves. [...]

All of this also applies to the animals to varying degrees. [...] It is the initial basic language from which all others spring, for all languages’ purposes rise from those qualities natural to love’s expression — the desire to communicate, create, explore, and to join with the beloved.

[...] Dramas and stories of all kinds have been written about the inner kind of communication that seems to take place between mother and children, sister and brother, or lover and beloved.

[...] He did not identify as himself alone, but because of his love, he identified also with all those portions of nature with which he came into contact. [...]

Now all of this can be applied to your relationships in your reincarnational existences, and of course it also is highly pertinent to your current daily experience. [...] You draw to yourself in this existence and in all others those qualities upon which you concentrate your attention. [...]

[...] I am telling you again, therefore, that many of your ideas of good and evil are highly distortive, and shadow all understanding you have of the nature of reality.

(9:45.) Now: From within your point of reference it is often difficult for you to perceive that all events work toward creativity, or to trust in the spontaneous creativity of your own natures. [...]

[...] As the Mona Lisa is “more real” than, say, a normal object or the canvas that composes it, so is all good or great art more than its own physical manifestation. [...]

We have to go beyond that—the point of problem-solving or problem-focus —back to stressing the creative larger-than-life aspects, otherwise all we have is a better problem-solving framework. [...]

I’ve rejected all that kind of hash projected onto Seth’s books by others or myself—the assumptions that Seth must prove himself as a problem solver— or the importance of functionalism over art. [...]
