“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I would like you for the moment to clear the board, as much of course as possible. I would like you to attend to your lives as they otherwise appear before you, for a period of time to return to sessions because of your natural living curiosity and involvement with them, and to attend most of all to creative thought as it naturally makes itself known. And let the stressful episode momentarily rest, as if you were saying “Oh yes, there is indeed a most undesirable twisted group of sentences. But we will let it go for the moment, refresh ourselves and allow the energy of creativity to work upon the paragraph till we return to it.”

Let Ruburt attend, not to his book so much as to the ideas within it that give it meaning—and I bid you a fond good evening.

“On Friday, October 23, 1981, I received the following message from Seth: ‘Attend to what is directly before you. You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. [...]

^* In 1965, in response to my letter, an older and very respected parapsychologist — “Dr. Instream,” Jane called him — invited Jane and me to attend the hypnosis symposium he was to conduct at a New York State college. Doctors, dentists, and psychologists attended. [...]

[...] Pat (Arnold), who has not attended lately, psychically is present. [...] In those terms Pat, who did not attend the physical class, attended a probable one; and Carol, who was not present for the end of the official class, was a participant in the probable one.

[...] Now there will be, as far as our regular class members are concerned, a particular meeting held that you will attend. Not because I say you will attend it, but because you have already decided to attend it, and I would dearly like to see some memory on the part of the conscious selves involved. [...]

Now some of the people also attending that class are the strangers that I spoke to you of, and that you know them well in the dream state. [...]

(Jane expressed a desire to see the work in place, so when I picked her up at the gallery we stopped off at the club to see it, where Jane made the impromptu remark that she wanted Seth to call off the session, so we could attend the opening of the club this evening.

[...] Jane also said she felt somewhat put out, or “pulled up short” at the short session, although earlier this evening she had expressed the wish for either a short session, or none at all, so we could attend the opening of the supper club operated by our landlord.)

[...] When these classes in this room are in progression, other portions of your own personality are attending other classes. [...] And each of you are given information according to the developments and characteristics of that particular portion of yourself who is attending. [...]

[...] These meetings occur in this room, but they also occur in other realities, and when you come here to this class you are also attending a class on another level, and you are not aware of those classes, though I am aware of them. [...]

I did briefly give him a message: attend to what is before you, for it is there for a reason. [...] When you attend to what is there with the proper magical attitude of mind, then the altered organizations can take place. [...]

[...] It was attended only by Jane, myself and Marian Spaziani, the wife of our landlord, although others were present in the house.

[...] They have read some of the early material but never attended a session. [...]

(From 6-7 PM this evening Jane and I attended a cocktail party given by Leonard Yaudes in his apartment downstairs. [...]

Ruburt never would have been free enough in the past for such a development to occur, and it was of course, again, no coincidence that you attended class the night the chanting began in earnest.

(“An invitation to attend.” [...] Jane could have been invited to attend. She knows she attended no such affair in their honor, but doesn’t know, now, whether she was asked to.

[...] An invitation to attend. [...]

[...] Let it be known that anyone who wants to attend private sessions must then arrange so in advance. [...]

[...] I am not saying that you should not allow certain specific individuals at times to attend private sessions. [...]

[...] At the first lecture we attended, the speaker gave a demonstration in hypnosis. Except for ourselves and a few students, the symposium was attended by psychologists, doctors, and dentists. [...]

[...] Dr. Instream wrote back, expressing interest and inviting us to attend the National Hypnosis Symposium to be held in July 1965.

We were delighted at the prospect of meeting Dr. Instream, but in order to pay for the trip, including fees for symposium attendance, we would have to use our vacation money. [...]

(Jack did not attend the reunion, though of course he is mentioned in Wendell’s letter of May 26. A strong connection is that Jack’s younger brother, Otto, did attend the reunion, and is also mentioned in the letter to some extent.

[...] As stated, the object contained a letter describing the reunion of perhaps half a dozen artists who worked together in the early 1940’s. The reunion was attended by the writer of the letter. [...]

(In any event travel by various modes from a cluster of surrounding towns in that area would have been necessary for the artists attending the reunion.

[...] The envelope object is postmarked Ridgewood, NJ, which lies on the outer rim of the commuter towns attendant to New York City. [...]

In some cases the individual’s money or jewels are not even available to them themselves, but hidden in the bank’s deep vaults, behind all kinds of barriers and hidden time locks that must be cared for by bank attendants. [...]

[...] Beliefs are the attendants—not strangers at all. [...]

[...] They had read my first book, knew about Seth, and had attended a few classes, but they had never witnessed a Seth session. [...]

[...] The people involved didn’t attend the sessions since they lived in other parts of the country, yet they said the advice helped them; information given concerning individual backgrounds was correct. [...]

[...] We haven’t been to a church in years, except to attend weddings or funerals. [...]

[...] Attending were Andrea, Rose Cafford and Florence McIntyre. [...]

[...] My brother Loren, his wife and his son Doug attended Aunt Ella’s funeral. Loren and his wife have a daughter, Linda, who could not attend because she was away at school.

(The connection between the envelope object and the death-in-the-family reference is, simply, that the object was picked off the sidewalk beside the home of my Aunt Mabel, and that Aunt Mabel, Jane and I attended the funeral of the family member. [...]

[...] If this seems tenuous, we think the idea reinforced by the fact that Jane and me and Aunt Mabel also attended another funeral together—that of Aunt Mabel’s husband, who died several years ago. [...]

There are five events that Dr. Instream will attend specifically, and for which he is planning. [...]

[...] The projected meeting would thus involve four people; the Wilburs could not attend at the last moment, but Don delivered the object personally on April 4, so there was an actual meeting of three.

[...] We speculate that mission here refers to Don’s trip to our apartment last April 4, from his out-of-town residence, to tell us that he and his wife could not attend the 248th session after all; on this visit he gave us the object used this evening.

[...] When the Wilburs discovered they couldn’t attend the 248th session as witnesses on April 4,1966, the day the photo used as object tonight was taken, I saved the object for future use when they could be witnesses, as explained. [...]

[...] You find it much easier to concentrate, to attend. To attend is to pay attention and take care of. So this exercise will allow you to attend — to focus your awareness to the matters at hand as clearly and vividly as possible. [...]
