“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. If I thought you were a sheep then I would try to lead you. And I would tell you where to go and what to do. You could ask me questions about your personal life and I would not require that you think for yourself. Instead, I would be quite happy to tell you what to do and to sit here and receive your thanks. If I thought you had no abilities of your own, and this applies to all of you, if I did not know that you were multidimensional personalities with all kinds of abilities at your disposal, then I would not tell you to think and feel for yourselves. I would not say you have the ability within you to solve your own problems. I would solve them for you.

Now. We do not want a cult here. I have seen to it that our friend Ruburt acts in such a way that this will not happen. What we want instead is something entirely different—a place of permissiveness where the inner self can grow and develop; where you can meet your own greater reality.

I have told you and I have told each of you here—that you are basically no different than I am. You are a consciousness in your time—dwelling within flesh. Presently, I have no body with which to manipulate in your physical system. And yet, regardless of that fact, each of you knows me well—you feel this vitality. And as I have said time and time again—such demonstrations should show you, since they are coming through Ruburt, that this energy is a portion of the energy that is your own—you have as much energy as I have—you have as much energy available to you as Ruburt has available to him. You each have as much energy within each of you as is being shown now in this room. My message is to use your own energy—to open yourself so that it can be known through you. The answers that you want reside within you. They will sweep out as easily and as clearly as air... if you let them! I repeat again: physically, Ruburt dwells within the same world as each of you. He has access to no more energy than you each possess! Then use your own energy! When you finally feel what I am saying, then you will ride above your own energy!

Now. If you have any questions I will answer them. I will see that you have the first copies of my book. Now I will be here for a social time.

(What Seth said was repeated to Jane—ending with the fact that he would be here for a “social time.”)

Now. If you realize that you create your physical reality through your own thoughts and desires, then you have learned the most important aspects of reality. This is what you have been setting out to do in your other lives, in your past existences. The realization of these truths nullifies any so-called debts from other lives. When you realize this and act upon it, there is no reason for you to come back here again unless you want to. Any of your difficulties in past lives were caused because you did not realize these basic truths. Your reincarnational pasts can help you if you know of them—only if they make these truths evident to you, only if you learn from them. Otherwise, they exist within you subconsciously and unconsciously in any case.

Now our friend here has been playing as a banker for years, and he knows it is a fine game. But his identity is not dependent upon it, and neither should your identity be dependent, you see.
