“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

This is merely an analogy but it will explain your body’s concept of itself; for as a whole it knows it “dies,” as now its portions do, but is also aware of its “future” transformation. [...]

[...] I am aware of myself, going with our analogy, within the image that you would see on your TV screen. [...]

[...] Ruburt correctly interpreted an analogy I gave him in which I compared thoughts to individual cells, and belief systems to the physical organs, which are composed of cells. [...]

I am trying to make this analogy clearer. [...]

[...] He used the speeding-car analogy to hammer home the point.)

[...] I used the front page of the newspaper as an analogy, saying that it exhibited far worse behavior and beliefs than any we were responsible for, yet the news and world events seemed to be made by individuals who behaved much more badly than we did, and that further the people involved seemed not to suffer any consequences of note, beyond say losing a job or an election, etc. [...]

As each species of flower has its place in the natural world, so, in terms of this analogy at least, the fool and the scholar, the fanatic, the timid, the weary and the exuberant, the greedy—all of these also have their place.

[...] But portions of these spirals coincide, and in this analogy the spirals of action not only have those dimensions which you understand, but other dimensions with which you are not yet familiar.

(A bowl of grapes sat on the coffee table before Jane; she held up a bunch as she made the analogy.)

A very simple analogy will arise as an artist attempts faithfully to reproduce a landscape. [...]

[...] By this analogy, you see, the soft voice is the holy voice and the loud voice is the wicked one, and a strong desire is the bad desire and a weak desire the good one. [...]

(I’d say that we can follow Seth’s analogy about the emotional intensities, above, okay, and also that we try not to be blind to values in life that might not be readily apparent in ordinary terms. [...]

[...] For an analogy you may say that upon some occasions, though few, Ruburt’s personal subconscious layer expands so that I must travel through portions of it, and at other times it contracts and bothers me not at all.

(Pause.) I am trying to think of an analogy.... [...]

That is an adequate analogy. [...]

I intend to add to our discussion concerning the dream world, as it is not only important in itself but offers excellent analogies as far as many other aspects of manipulation are concerned. [...]

[...] The personality is not actually layered, of course, but continuing with the necessary analogy, beneath the racial memories you look out upon another dimension of reality with the face of this other self-conscious part of you.

It was in this session that Seth made the analogy of the “weird creature with two faces,” one turned to physical reality and one to inner reality, both conscious and aware, each representing one facet of our consciousness.

[...] Now, the whole self is composed, to use this analogy, of the entire eight channels. [...]

The field analogy mentioned earlier should help you.

[...] Perhaps this isn’t a good analogy — Seth is far from a dream character, and in fact I hardly ever dream of him at all — but he is a personality whose platform of reality isn’t the same as ours, a personality who writes books through me, but from his standpoint, not mine.
