“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, when you spoke of your friend last time, I told you to distrust easy answers. And in a way, I am not kind to you, for I would have you question before you are ready to question. It is easy to take the advice of others. It is easy to look outward and accept an authority. And there is no authority but the authority that is within your own consciousness—the legitimate reality that is your own!

([Brad:] “I guess I am inclined to be a follower...”)

I want you, in other words, to make tangible evidence of your own good points and accomplishments, so that when you are lost in periods of depression and negative thinking there will be something that you can look at. And you can say, “I am a person with good points and accomplishments, and here they are listed for me.” It will stop you from tearing yourself down from morning to night. This seems like a very simple suggestion, and yet it is a very valuable one.

I am sorry, I meant to give you my greetings for the evening and welcome you (Arnold).

I am not saying good evening, I am letting you take a break. You (to Florence) will be the most surprised of all and pleasantly so.

Now, I admit that no child ever spoke with a voice like mine. Nevertheless, this is because of mechanical difficulties. But the joy and vitality that is mine, and I am far older than you are, can be used by you.
