“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

This room seems to be less closed in than the one planned… and will make him feel less trapped. If he walks in the night and is restless he will have more freedom without bothering others… (Long pause, eyes closed.) You will have to give me a moment here…. [...]

[...] What follows is not verbatim, since Jane spoke quite rapidly at times, but is close to it, and the correct meaning of what Jane said is always given. [...]

[...] Most of the time her eyes were closed, if not all. [...]

I feel that Billie is pretty close about. [...]

[...] Jane began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

The eye movements noted in the beginning of REM sleep are only indications of dream activity that is closely connected to the physical layers of the self. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed, her pace had been good, her voice average. [...]

[...] Her eyes remained closed, her voice average, her pace quite fast. [...]

[...] Jane began speaking for Seth in a voice somewhat stronger than usual, and with her eyes closed.)

[...] (Pause, eyes closed.) These are simply impressions. [...]

[...] Her voice had been good throughout, her eyes closed. [...]

[...] (Amused, eyes closed, Jane leaned forward.) Now let us see. [...]

The door is never closed. [...] You only imagine that it is closed. No one closes the door but you. And no one makes you close the door—and no one can make you open the door though I can certainly try!! [...]

[...] You close the door to your own heritage when you do not look inward. [...]

You close the door to your own strength when you look for it in another (to Brad). [...]

[...] You do not solve it by standing in front of it with your arms crossed and closing your eyes and saying, “Surely the solution must be fearful.” [...]

I will now close. Now you (Jane pointed to me as Seth), for a very brief time, close your eyes and see if you experience anything. [...]

[...] During the delivery I had become increasingly sleepy— so much so that at times I had to struggle to keep my eyes open; at times I let them close briefly in relief. [...]

[...] (Long pause, eyes closed.) These will be, I believe, a series of visions, extending over some time. [...]

[...] Her eyes were closed, and she was Seth for the next five minutes.

[...] Her eyes had been closed for most of the delivery, and they were closed during a good part of the next one. [...]

[...] She began her delivery with her eyes closed, but she spoke in a rather strong voice and in a very active manner. [...]

[...] Jane’s delivery was again fast and her eyes were still closed, although her voice was quieter, when she resumed at 9:34.)

[...] The experience of space and time within the dream universe comes very close to the pure expression of the inner self. [...]

[...] Now after our talk Jane sat upright in the rocker, her eyes closed, head back, sitting quietly with her lips moving soundlessly as if experimenting, trying for just the right approach so that the other personality could make entry through her.

[...] Jane’s eyes remained closed. [...]

[...] Jane sat with her head back, eyes closed, head nodding a little back and forth—an effect often noticed since last break. [...]

[...] Her eyes closed, and her head began to nod, her lips moving soundlessly. [...]

(Once again Jane began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed and her pace had been slow toward the end of the delivery.

[...] Jane spoke with her eyes closed once more; her pace, although broken by many short pauses, was good overall. [...]

(Jane now took a long pause, sitting with her right hand raised to her closed eyes at 10:11.)

[...] Jane spoke while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed, and her voice quiet; her pace had picked up considerably as she spoke along.

[...] Jane began speaking with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed, her voice quiet. [...]

[...] Jane spoke while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] She often leaned forward in her chair, gesturing and pointing even though her eyes remained closed. [...]

[...] Now Jane, her eyes still closed, leaned forward in her chair toward Lorraine. [...]

[...] I will for Joseph’s benefit here state that the material itself will in the future be closely studied. [...]

[...] Her hands were raised to her closed eyes and she was not smoking.)

I am going to ask you to wait a moment while the kitchen window is closed, as the traffic is disturbing Ruburt.

[...] I too had been aware of the traffic noise, although I had pulled our kitchen window closed, I thought, before the session. [...]

[...] She used many pauses, some of them quite long as she sat quietly with her eyes closed.)

(I now became aware that Jane seemed to be pacing about the room with her eyes closed, or very nearly so. [...] From my position they appeared to be closed, but from the confident manner in which she moved about the room I thought she could see a little at least.)

(Part of the time her eyes were fully closed as she paced about the room, Jane said, but she could not give me a percentage estimate. [...] Jane thought Seth intended that she begin the session sitting down; instead she got up, and we think it reasonable that as compensation Seth introduced the nearly-closed-eye experiment.

[...] She had no idea of the subject matter for the session, nor did she know whether she would sit with her eyes closed or pace about as usual.

[...] Her eyes almost shut, she groped about on the table for her cigarettes, lit one and then leaned back with her eyes closed.)

I have said and I will repeat: In fact, there are no closed systems. They may appear closed to those within, but they are not closed, and there are openings in what appear closed places. [...]

These therefore for all intents and purposes close ranks, encompassing the three systems and accepting no further additions at this given time. [...]

[...] She then answered my thoughts in closing out the session.

(With this impression, as I sat with closed eyes, I seemed to receive a picture. [...] On Friday night Bill told me my sketch was pretty close to the layout he finally decided upon at the office, and talked over with the stereotyper. [...]

[...] She began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Her eyes remained closed, her voice even and rather fast, even with some pauses. [...]

(Jane again sat leaning forward when she resumed speaking, in the same even voice, and with her eyes closed, at 9:30.)

[...] Remember last session’s explanation of mental enclosures, composed of inward, individualized, aware energy, materializing itself in physical form, and at a particular point closing off and becoming more or less a closed system.

A closed system could become captured, so to speak, and be used as a building block, still retaining its individuality, by other systems still expanding. In this manner your physical universe, dream universe, and universe of negative matter have come together, while retaining their boundaries as a more or less closed system.

You will have to understand that I speak for simplicity’s sake, since no system is completely closed. [...]

For practical reasons for our discussion, we will speak of these universes forming a closed system.

[...] A circular formation surrounded by flowers I believe, with closely-crowded, old, at least second-story structures to the left side of the street, or close to the street and nearly identical in rows.

[...] Something strange about the suit, as if it is the only dark colored one close by, at least.

7 o’clock and dinner where there are boats close by. [...]

And a modern street light very close nearby

[...] She began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Also, although the room was well lighted the shades were closed, a practice Jane and I do not indulge in otherwise.

[...] Her eyes had remained closed during the delivery, and she had remained seated. [...]

[...] Now, her eyes still closed, she hiked her chair closer, then pointed at him.)

(Practically as soon as I finished speaking to Seth, Jane’s eyes closed. [...] She began to speak in an average voice, with pauses, eyes mostly closed.)

She closed off the material from me, which is something different.

[...] (Pause, eyes closed.)

[...] There are still some closed doors, however.

[...] (Voice louder than usual; eyes mostly closed however.)

[...] (Smile, eyes closed.)

[...] A town then of 5100, now close to 4500(0). [...]

[...] Jane’s voice had been quite loud throughout, though her pace was rather slow and her eyes were closed most of the time. [...]

(She had used many pauses, some of them close to a minute long. [...] She resumed at a somewhat faster rate, again with her eyes closed, at 9:30.)

[...] Jane spoke while sitting down and with her eyes closed. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed; her voice had been loud enough to rise above the traffic noise. [...]

[...] Her eyes had remained closed, her voice had been a bit stronger, her pace had picked up quite a bit during the delivery. [...]
