“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now you are all out of touch with your own emotions. It is not so much that you put up barriers between yourself and others, but that you put up barriers between yourself and yourself. And each of you in class have put up paper people that sit in front of you, and you hope that the others relate to these paper people.

Now, this point is within you at this moment and each moment and it is a point of feeling and awareness. Consciousness poised between exquisite points of imbalance. A knowledge that sings above nonexistence. A joy beyond all concept and its threshold is your own feeling. You must learn, therefore, to accept the feeling of any moment. To cut down the barriers, not between yourselves and others, so much as the barriers that you have set up against yourselves. To recognize within yourself the power that exists within you at any given moment of your time, and do not look away from it. To examine one instant of your feelings clearly, to some extent, is to realize what truth is and the truth is emotional.

Now many of you still do not realize what I say. You listen to the words and that is all, but the power behind the words, and the power behind the voice, is emotional power and emotional energy and it represents, again, energy that is within each of you and there is no need to be afraid of it. I am not worried about being dignified and adult. Why should you be? And why should you try to be psychically educated while closing yourself off emotionally from the others who come to class for you all have put up barriers between yourselves. You must learn to recognize and use and pool your emotional energy. You do not lose, but gain.

Now when I conduct a sensitivity session, you will know you have been to one. And if you do not all let down some barriers on your own then that will be what you are faced with.

[...] There will be breakthroughs at many levels—writing, psychic, and health, that have been waiting for the barriers to disappear.

[...] there will be “a birth” of seemingly new concepts, simply because his old mental barriers kept him from making certain important connections, and an increasing system of communication between waking and dreaming states.

Eight: The only barriers within inner reality are mental barriers, or psychic barriers.

Six: Space as a barrier does not exist.

[...] The barrier was of your own construction, representing two things: the subconscious feeling that a definite barrier exists between one plane and another; and secondly the barrier you felt separated you and your father throughout his life.

[...] The barrier was not death, but life on the other side of it.

[...] For I would be imprisoned within the barriers of sexual perception. [...]

[...] It is not a barrier to him. [...]

[...] Vitality such as this knows no barriers, no deaths, and no endings. [...]

One portion of the personality therefore set itself aside and therefore was unable to use the abilities and energies inherent in the personality as a whole, constructively; and erecting barriers in one respect, the barriers were erected in all important regards.

[...] The barriers to the energy have been let down, the action no longer impeded. [...]

Again, this is simply a rushing in of energy where it was most needed, once the barriers have been removed. [...]

[...] It is impossible for the ego to block off specific connections with the whole personality, therefore any barriers effectively impede whole blocks of active and necessary vitality. [...]

[...] In the past, however, those methods seemed to make sense: if you believe that the self is sinful or deceptive, then you must indeed set up barriers so that you allow expression while monitoring it very carefully at the same time. [...]

The barriers become unnecessary when you realize that the self is not sinful. [...]

[...] Love is therefore surrounded very carefully by all kinds of barriers by both science and religion, and in your own lives you could now be much more demonstrative in those regards. [...]

[...] Since past, present, and future have no basic reality, this sense allows us to see through the apparent time barriers. [...]

Your belief otherwise automatically shuts you off so that the necessary climate, the psychic climate, is a barrier to what you want. [...]

[...] By your attitude you are effectively forming a barrier against any financial betterment of any significant kind. [...]

[...] For you have formed barriers without knowing it... where barriers do not exist. [...]

[...] Open up the barriers in your daily lives... [...]

[...] For you have formed barriers without knowing it—where barriers do not exist. [...]

[...] Open up the barriers in your daily lives—step outside of the self that you know—and you will solve your difficulties! [...]

You set up strong barriers in those directions—these have been added to by concentration upon the problem, so you become involved in this vicious circle. [...]

[...] The term, itself, sets up a barrier. [...]

[...] First of all, if you will forgive me, you would have no difficulty at all having orgasm with a man to whom you were deeply attracted if he were not your husband, and if you could get over the moral barriers that might prevent it—if you could convince yourself that it was all right.

[...] You do not like to take orders—you do not like barriers—you do not like enforcements. [...]

[...] In wishing to close himself to such information, Ruburt would wish to close himself off from beneficial knowledge, and from the kind of exploration which in itself expands, and opens barriers that are not really barriers but doorways.

The barrier, if it may be so called, is not so much in the nature of the two dimensions themselves, but in your own limitations, since presently you are focused mainly in one of these. [...]

It is important that you understand that time puts limitations and barriers in the way of perception. [...]

In nontime these portions of the entity exist quite freely, without any time barriers to separate them. [...]

There are no barriers as far as development and experience are concerned, nor to creativity. [...]

[...] It leads to the setting up of barrier after barrier, to protect the self both against the self and against the outside world.

[...] This will be the basis for our next session, for you will see how dreams also serve as the other face, so that man himself stands at a threshold that is also a barrier, or stands at a barrier that is also a threshold.

[...] If you consider them as soldiers guarding the barriers or the boundaries, then you would have to imagine a strange creature, our particle, as a soldier on a boundary facing toward and away from the country in question.

[...] If you feel like setting up barriers, then set up barriers. If you feel like letting barriers go then let them go, but do whatever you feel like doing and whatever you feel like doing, do. [...]

[...] This is caused by an inner willingness to believe, though this is a bad word, in the legitimate nature of my existence; a willingness however that is sometimes so desperate, if you will forgive the term, and so wholehearted, that it sets up automatic barriers on the part of other portions of the personality.

[...] This does not mean that in time you cannot yourself knock down this particular barrier.

[...] The emotional blockage sets up barriers however whose main purpose is to protect the individual from anything that he considers at all unsafe or threatening, or simply unpleasant.

We are simply seeing what we can accomplish with these barriers set up as they are, and without attempting to manipulate them ourselves.

Now basically, consciousness itself is a type of barrier, and anything that has consciousness experiences time to some degree. [...] Self-consciousness presents a larger barrier, therefore the sense of time is greater. [...] That is, many of the barriers disappear. [...]

[...] Ruburt read tonight my statement that without barriers there would be no time.

To some extent Ruburt does still set up barriers, when for example Tam comes, but that in its way is all right—a part of his nature. [...]
