[...] The tendency exists to suppose that any true evidence or proof of validity depends upon those effects that can be perceived through the outer senses. [...]

[...] What is difficult is the ability or facility to change focus from one area to another, always leaving the door open for a return to the usual necessary daily focus point, in order that effective balance be maintained and manipulation in the physical area remain fairly uninterrupted.

[...] people ask, even though some of the more than 200 nuclear power plants around the world have operated for more than 20 years now, without a single death caused by radiation. [...]

[...] Then I came to think that Seth actually meant that man has consciously separated himself from his dream body to a greater degree than other creatures have—that even though those other entities became “physically effective” before man did, they still retain a greater awareness of their dream bodies than man does. [...]

My idea is that both class and mail have had an unfortunate reinforcing effect over the years as far as the symptoms and their attendant fears go. [...]

[...] In each Seth book there have been layoffs, so to speak—long or longish periods in between certain sessions, while, usually, we held personal sessions in the interim; these were usually devoted to trying to get at the root causes of Jane’s symptoms. [...]

(Coupled with all of this is the statement Seth made recently to the effect that we “have made no major errors.” [...]

[...] We do believe Seth’s assessment, to the effect that her body is righting itself in numerous areas after years of disuse, of being held down, but at the same time it’s very difficult not to have qualms and doubts about what’s happening at the same time. [...]

[...] I also believe that I had received the injection, and that it was supposed to take effect hours ago, but hadn’t done so. [...]

Now the last dream looks for the causes behind the situation, and the main key to it is the needle symbol, which on the one hand is a symbol for the penis. [...]

[...] Ruburt is in this episode because now you worry about the effect of your own reaction upon his condition in general.

[...] It is a sense of powerlessness that also causes nations to initiate wars. [...]

(10:25.) Power would be effectively shown, but symbolically. [...]

[...] If a parent shows fear, then the child is effectively taught to be afraid of this anger and hatred before which the powerful parent shrinks. [...]

He saw it physically, yet could find no physical cause for it. [...] Consciously he thought the light must have been caused by lightning, even while he knew with another portion of himself that that was not the case.

Other dream events, though forgotten, may also cushion the individual to withstand the effects of such “nightmare therapy.” [...]

Whatever its cause or origin

[...] Responding only to the stimuli immediately available will often alleviate the anxiety causing the stomach difficulty.

[...] This caused, the initial eye difficulties, and unequal working of the eye muscles. [...]

[...] The effects were very pronounced, and continued as we went shopping, etc. [...]

[...] Indiscriminate use of the psychedelic drugs can severely shake up learned patterns of response that are necessary for effective manipulation within physical reality; break subtle connections and you disturb electromagnetic functions. [...]

Development of the inner senses is a much more effective method of perceiving other realities, and, followed correctly, the ego is not only stronger but more flexible. [...]

It is the vitality of the universe, and all universes, which causes the electrical reality, and the vitality of the universe, composing everything that is, cannot be touched. [...]
