“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

SESSION 677, JULY 11, 1973
9:36 P.M. WEDNESDAY

Because of your educational framework, the individual is taught to be wary of the inner self, as mentioned earlier (in the 614th session in Chapter Two, for instance), so unfortunately the ordinary man or woman looks for the solutions of personal problems outside of the self, where they can least be found. If you use the methods given in this book, you should know yourself far more intimately than you did before, and be better equipped to handle your personal reality. Simply knowing that you form your reality can free you from some limiting concepts that have held you back in the past. You can then examine your beliefs creatively, finding the correlations between them and your experience. The conscious knowledge alone will trigger intuitional responses within the inner self so that you will receive helpful information through dreams, impulses, and ordinary thought patterns.

(Pause at 10:06. Our cat, Willy, had been sick so we’d kept him with us during the session. Waking up now, he strolled over to Jane as she sat in her rocker speaking for Seth. He crouched, preparing to spring up into her lap. I called him; whereupon he chose to curl up beside me on the couch instead.

(A note pertaining to the material given just before break: In Chapter Nineteen Seth deals with reincarnation in a general sense, but he’s said little in this book about his psychic “connections” with Jane and me. There are references to such ties scattered through The Seth Material and Seth Speaks [see the 595th session in the Appendix of the latter] and we have a modest amount of unpublished information. But to explore the ramifications of reincarnation just as it involves the three of us, for example, would take a book in itself….

Now: Dictation: Ruburt’s own beliefs in the nature of his consciousness helped bring about these sessions.

End of session.

(Dialogues, a book of poetry, is described in the 639th session in Chapter Ten. Aspect Psychology, Jane’s own theoretical work on psychic matters, is referred to in the 618th session in Chapter Three, among others. It was born out of her writings on Adventures in Consciousness, as mentioned in Chapter Twenty-one of Seth Speaks, and incorporates that material.)
