“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

“But I would think that Arnold as much as anyone else has been browbeaten by the stereotype. He wanted to speak for a personality like Joel speaks for a personality, or Jane does, or he wanted to get information in a given particular way. Where all the time he’s got it, and he knows he’s got it. But he just wanted it to come out in a particular way. Where all you have to do is say, you know, I don’t give a goddamn how it comes because you have it. Or where beneath your humility is a refusal to accept your own divinity.”

([Jane:] “Great. I feel we have a tremendous amount of strength and energy, and we can really use it now; much more than we could have before. But if you’re waiting for me to have Seth come through, you should be as anxious to hear your own inner selves come through. And if I show to you various quite different aspects of personality, then you should feel them in yourselves, because they’re all yours. You’re just so used to concentrating on this one part of you that you insist is yourself, that you are not able to make these shifts. Now I can make them. I’m learning to make them more and more. But you can also make them without any sense of division, with a sense of complete easiness, and that’s what I want you to learn to do. And I have taken away some of your comfort blankets, but don’t cry, ‘cause I’ll give you something better instead.”

([Jane:] “The thing of it is see, you look for wonders from me when you should look for wonders from yourselves. And there are wonders. You think there aren’t any. There’s all kinds of wonders from yourselves. Each one of you...fantastic. And with this thing I wrote tonight, I also got the idea that since we’re being personally addressed if we listen, that to some degree the messages will be different. They will be addressed to us individually, knowing our needs and our characteristics, and all this stuff, so you will get the message ...different. Anyhow, that’s okay.

Now I have never said I was a nondescript personality floating through space. Not only would I not say it of me, I would not say it of you, and I would not like it, and I do not like it when you say it of yourself. You are each unique and individual and you are each highly original and as Ruburt has so nicely said, you each have your own paths into experience and understanding.

([Joel:] “A substitute instead of nondescript—what I was trying to say was rigidly defined. I can’t accept that we are rigidly defined and structured as personalities.”)

You are correct. I will tell you what I have tried to tell you a million times in my own way, and what I try to show you through those aspects of my personality that come through to you, and what in my teachings differs from any others, and it is this. There is joy and vitality in your physical existence.

Now I provide you with a bridge, and I have told you this before. You experience me as a particular personality, and you relate to it, and I, in turn, relate to you as the particular personalities that you think you are. That does not mean that what you see of my personality defines me, or that what you think of as your own personality defines you.
