“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] And that if your body becomes ill, it is because of an inner disease... [...]

[...] Then shout yes with joy -the cells of your body shout yes. [...]

[...] I am here to tell you that your joy is not dependent upon your physical body, for in your terms I have none. [...]

[...] You are as disembodied as I. You have a vehicle to use, a body that you call your own, and that is all. [...]

I began to have out-of-body experiences (astral projections) as I sat in the living room, speaking for Seth. [...]

Now: On certain occasions, sometimes near the point of death, but often simply in conscious states outside of the body, man is able to perceive that kind of light. In some out-of-body experiences Ruburt, for example, saw colors more dazzling than any physical ones, and you saw the same kind of colors in your dream. [...]

[...] Your world is composed of such “entities”—the units of consciousness that form your body. [...]

[...] All philosophies that stress the idea of the body’s impurity or degradation should also be seen as detrimental to bodily and spiritual integrity. [...]

Once again, I activate those coordinates that quicken your own peace of body and mind, and encourage your healing capacities.

(November 6, Friday, 11:30 AM: A very definite prolonged feeling of body dissolving below chest. [...] Then sense of whole body vibrating gently to and fro. [...] Feeling from feet up of body dissolved, but the coldness at the same time. [...] [I was actually partially dressed, and beneath spread which was doubled.] I had the feeling my body might rise without it, since it felt dissolved below the chest. [...]

[...] It is fuel to your physical body and the idea of it comes very close to this fuel of the inner senses, which is not a camouflage effect and which is our vitality unsolidified, or the little wires which make up our imaginary universe. [...]

[...] She did not experience this odd sensation of change in any other part of her body. [...]

[...] The mind is distributed throughout the whole physical body. [...]

[...] This explains the reason why a chemical imbalance in a physical body will also show itself as a corresponding distortion of sensual data. [...]

[...] The specialized “new” kind of consciousness in one body had to respond pinpoint fast. [...]

[...] The cells still reacted to these otherwise neglected pulses, as they needed data from both the past and future to maintain the body’s balance in “the present.” [...]

While the cells required future and past data, and used it to form from that invisible tension the body’s present corporal reality, the same kind of information could be a threat then to the ego consciousness, which could be overwhelmed. [...]

[...] The body, as mentioned (in the 685th session) is an electromagnetic pattern, poised in a web of probabilities, experienced as corporal at an intersection point in space and time.

[...] In larger terms, such focusing in particular areas can involve an entire life situation, reincarnationally speaking, where you choose ahead of time, so to speak, to concentrate your attention in certain areas rather than others; you may pick for yourself a body that does not perform normally, or a mind that is not up to par in usual terms.

[...] “At least it shows your body you want to do something,” I said. [...]

[...] Some new habits have finally taken; consciously he has learned to leave himself alone enough so that the body can clear itself.

(Pause.) Ruburt was made aware of the fact in an out-of-body state when they came face to face. [...]

A few nights earlier, another student, Shirley, just missed having an out-of-body experience. [...] Shirley felt Seth nearby a few nights later and was just about to leave her body when she got frightened and held back.

I ‘come to,’ realizing that my body is in bed sleeping. [...]

[...] Suddenly I feel the shell of my physical body for what it is — my own creation — and am aware of how much more I am. [...]

[...] You think of the body as a warm house indeed, and you are loathe to leave it.

But the body has its own integrity, and illness is often simply a natural sign of imbalance, a physical message to which you are to listen and make inner adjustments accordingly.

When these realignments are always made from the outside, the body’s innate coherence becomes jeopardized, and its intimate relationship with mind confused. [...]

[...] You cannot expect any portion of your environment to remain static, therefore, and the condition of your body is constantly in a state of flux and change.

[...] On Tuesday, 7/28, I missed trying; on Wed., 7/29, 8:15 PM, I had a mild sensation in both my hands and feet, and a slight feeling of both categories being on a somewhat higher level than the rest of my body.

I would like to suggest that he begin reading again the body of the sessions. [...]

[...] First my left foot felt somewhat elevated, then my left hand, and finally the entire left side of my body. [...]

While I admit that many people will not agree with me (smile), I know from experience that most individuals do not choose one “happy” life after another, always ensconced in a capable body, endowed by nature or heritage with all of the gifts most people seem to think they desire.

[...] Some people will choose “defective” bodies purposely in order to focus more intensely in other areas. [...]

[...] The idea still is to love and protect and cherish, and express the body that you have.

[...] This was the first time I’d had such an experience outside, walking; I found my body moving faster, easier, freer. [...]

This is needed added evidence; that helps build up your confidence—when you begin to trust yourself and your body successfully enough, trust that the power to change is in the present, and organize your feeling and thoughts under a new banner—mine being: responsive.

[...] And in the past I guess I did think if it had to be done, I’d cut out the body’s mobility to a rather severe degree... [...]

[...] This only applies to certain periods of relaxation, however, that are connected with the eventual freedom of the most vital motions of the body. [...]

[...] It is important then that he begin using his psychic abilities to help heal his own body, and he will begin doing that as he understands that it is indeed safer to let that tension go, and to free his psychic and physical motion. [...]

[...] This gives the idea to the body that these vitamins and minerals are sometimes to be provided by itself. [...]

[...] The body at times needs certain kinds of fats, and at other times does not—so when you make too many food laws (pause), then there are at least indications of the old Jewish dietary habits. [...]
