“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The books, and your drawings in their own way, bring out in people those qualities that they need and have needed to help combat the attitudes that initiated such economic “disasters.”

Ruburt turned aside from his book for a while, doubting his own authority, and so to some extent slowed his progress physically—but he did not stop it, and is returned to it. [...]

[...] He teaches a high school course called “Inner and Outer Space,” in a small city in Connecticut; the class uses Jane’s book, The Seth Material, as text. [...]

[...] Now: We are going to resume dictation on our book, so (humorously to Carl) you can see an author at work — an authentic ghost writer if you prefer.

(Seth did make a prediction: Jane will write an excellent book about the class sessions, and this will lead many to read the regular Seth material. [...]

[...] Those people interpret our books from their own levels. They regard the books as their discoveries. They buy the books for friends and relatives. [...]

[...] Do not expect the books to sell like novels, as I have told you. [...]

(Seth’s reference to Jane’s book idea, Aspect Psychology, touches on one of our other questions. Her editor, Tam Mossman, has offered her the prospect of a contract for a book on Adventures in Consciousness combined with Aspects. [...]

[...] It seemed to him that if he spontaneously felt happy about a book that you would remind him of less favorable aspects. [...]

[...] We will have a good book session tomorrow. [...]

[...] They were very interested in talking about Jane’s book, The Seth Material. They also gave me several questions for Seth to answer in his own book, if he chose to do so. [...]

[...] As mentioned earlier in this book, I do contact some in other levels of reality, however.

[...] This was the end of the material on Seth’s book for the evening. [...]

Book dictation. [...]

[...] We will have more to say about this later in the book, but for now I want to stress the importance of self-approval in connection with exuberance, health, and well-being.

[...] Again, it is the top half of the first page of chapter five of the book Jane is writing on dreams. [...]

[...] Chapter five of the dream book contains suggested experiments for the reader to try, involving waking and dreaming states and their interchange, etc. [...]

[...] Games and playgrounds figure prominently in chapter five of Jane’s dream book; the envelope object is the first page from chapter five. [...]

[...] However, we think Jane’s Helga impressions and the interpretations leading to the envelope object and the dream book in general, to be legitimate.

[...] Mornings I spent on my ESP book, writing up the results of our experiments. [...] In fact few of our friends even knew what we were up to until the book was out. [...]

[...] I’d like to mention here that by now we had read several books on extrasensory perception, but still hadn’t come across anything about voice communication. [...]

[...] (As you will see later in this book, that energy can also be a springboard into other dimensions.)

[...] But the ESP books we’d read all advised that anyone having such experiences contact a qualified psychologist or parapsychologist.

[...] Jane usually wrote several drafts for her “own” books, but spoke her books by Seth in final draft form.

Jane discusses “prediction” and precognition in her books: How to Develop Your ESP Power, Adventures in Consciousness, Psychic Politics, and The God of Jane.

All of this reminds me of my old idea of a projected book: The Contents of the Mind, or the Unofficial Contents of the Mind. [...]

[...] I had the impulse, for no particular reason, to write about the meeting today instead of writing on this book (The Magical Approach) and spent a good ten minutes thinking about the entire affair. [...]

[...] Sue Watkins, a member of Jane’s ESP class and our personal friend, has been very helpful; she has loaned me books on the period so that I could be sure of historical references.

[...] But we certainly didn’t expect Seth to continue the material he’d begun in his book relating to biblical times.)

[...] You will shortly be able to read my book in its entirety. [...]

[...] Book dictation is over.

[...] Except for the few listed below, then, it may be sufficient to just state that we’ve been in our hill house for a month, and that after much hard physical labor² we’ve settled down enough to resume our natural rhythms of painting, sessions, books, and play. [...]

(In that big, intriguing house her whole psychic world — and mine — had begun to open up late in 1963; various aspects of that becoming are detailed in her different books. [...]

It is as if you had trained yourselves to respond to red lights and to ignore green ones, for example — or as if you read only every third or fourth line on a page of a book.

[...] As mentioned earlier in this book,¹³ the accepted theory of evolution is highly simplistic. [...]

[...] [They began to approach those described in the 639th session in Chapter Ten, and the 653rd session in Chapter Thirteen, to name but two such instances mentioned in this book.] Finally she called me at 3:30 p.m. as I was painting in my studio, and read Silver Brothers to me. [...]

(Last night, incidentally, Jane was again busily at work on Seth’s book in her sleep, dictating material that we haven’t actually gotten to yet.

[...] Later in the book we’ll show how your individual beliefs attract you to joys or disasters. [...]

[...] The book that you have just received from Prentice (Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain), will have an important effect upon Ruburt, and a beneficial one, helping to increase his confidence in his own abilities.

[...] What he felt this week, and in beginning his book, was the rousing of his energies. [...]

[...] Now that you are back with steady sessions once more, I need not use every session for dictation as long as I know my book is doing well. [...]

“Unknown” Two will indeed almost immediately bring about an excellent increase of sales of volume 1—and when the two books are out they will give you an excellent additional steady income. Creatively, you have already made certain decisions that you are keeping from yourself, in terms of a book of your own in the future.

[...] I have no ideas at all about doing a book of my own.)

(Seth’s reference to a letter to a congressman came about, I think, because during our conversation on Friday night Bill Gallagher said that no one present had done anything to protest the conditions in our world that we didn’t like—forgetting, of course, that the books themselves are full of protests, and of suggestions for the better. But Bill doesn’t read the books, and to that extent lives in a world closed off from such ideas.)

[...] This was a period in which I had a series of potent dreams that Jane has done a lot of work interpreting [including my famous dog dream of March 31, 1979], and which could easily make up several chapters in a book on the subject, if we had the time to produce it. [...]

[...] I asked that Seth comment, but also said I didn’t want him devoting the whole session to my challenges, since I know Jane wants book material also.)

[...] The books bear his name, so you feel that they are primarily his, and yet all of those feelings ignore completely the larger realities of your lives and of your work.

[...] Tension arising, oddly enough, from the realization that his book will indeed be published. [...]

(Before the session Jane had been reading a book on abnormal psychology. [...]

[...] We will go into this particular matter in a portion of the book dealing with religion and the god concept.

[...] There are methods that will enable you to do this, and I will give you some toward the end of this book.

[...] In later chapters of this book, I hope to give you some practical information that will enable you to alter practically the very nature and structure of daily life.

(This break marked the end of dictation on his book for the evening, Seth announced when he returned at 11:28. [...]

[...] It is good, however, to suggest that “your definition of important people” read the books, to suggest that the books fall into the proper hands, in those terms.

[...] I suggest that you do the exercise you mentioned, dealing however with an excellent increase in sales of the books, for this will help many other people, and you also.

(“Well, sending out suggestions about selling books implies a change of attitude to some extent—”)

[...] I was more interested in information on our reactions to the books selling well, and the resulting publicity, than in the question of guests, per se. [...]

(She also thought of a chapter in Seth’s new book, one that was titled “Food and You” — then found herself stewing about saying something wrong in the book and leading people astray — more signs of old habits. [...]

[...] Probably inevitable in this book, at least at times …)

[...] At long last our friend has really embarked upon our book. [...]

[...] As you have always known, his attitude toward our book represented, of course, his attitude toward our sessions. [...]

[...] His abilities are detailed in the book, Healing Hands, by J. Bernard Hutton, published 1966 by David McKay Co., Inc., New York, NY, at $3.95.
