“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(11:35.) Briefly, then: it is simple enough. The new beliefs are becoming strong enough, consistently enough, so that they begin to supersede the old ones for sufficient periods of time so that improvements can occur.

As the new beliefs take over, however, he is then stimulated to use techniques that he tried to use before on occasion, but did not consistently keep up. He is learning to use these techniques to keep his purpose in mind. He is more consciously aware of what he is doing, so that he does not fall, for example, into self-pity so often, or feelings of hopelessness, but instead stops. He has become more determined than ever to change his mode of thought and to rid himself of the physical symptoms.

These suggestions may be remarkably long-standing, therefore, and consist of beliefs received in childhood. [...] They consist of suggestions given to children:

[...] In its workings, nature then appears to be impersonal, even though it so consists of individuals that it cannot be regarded otherwise.

The complementarity principle (stated by Bohr in 1928) resolves the seeming paradox posed by contradictory experiments that show how light, for example, can be regarded as consisting of either waves or particles. [...]

The ego did not see the consistency. It did not see that then previous questions that it had set, that it had asked, led inevitably to intuitive answers and to psychic experience, and for some time it refused to see this, in quotes “quite logical” consistency. [...]

Only now does Ruburt see the consistency and how the path as he knew it brought forth the impetus that is now his present. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Poetry could not however express in a consistent way those intricate patterns so that they could be clearly understood.

These are beliefs of Ruburt’s. He felt in the past that you did not consistently keep with him in any program of improvement, except for badminton. [...]

(At least 40 correct impressions were given, more actually since some of them consisted of several points. [...]

(Last Monday evening Seth gave a very short private session for Jane; it turned out to consist of just one page of double-spaced typewritten information. [...]

[...] Unless you think quite consistently — and deeply — the importance of the imagination quite escapes you, and yet it literally forms the world that you experience and the mass world in which you live.

[...] You cannot expect yourselves to act rationally or altruistically in any consistent manner if you believe that you are automatically degraded, or that your nature is so flawed that such performance is uncharacteristic.

[...] There are many consistencies in the Gospels, but also inconsistencies that cannot be resolved. [...]

(Long pause.) Such beliefs serve to limit your comprehension, until it seems often that physical life consists of a frantic struggle for survival at every level of consciousness. [...]

[...] You both consistently in this particular regard operate from the outside, and become deluged, hypnotized by the exterior situation. [...]

To me, Jane’s sensing of those “cousins of consciousness,” those “friendly colleagues,” and her very cautious reactions to her inner knowing, are clear signs of the consistency of her beliefs and her work through the years. [...]

Her consistency of attitude was strongly reinforced for me when, as I put together the notes for this session, I came across two rough, untitled poems that she’d produced on March 19, 1977—four years and eight months ago. [...]

[...] All three are entirely consistent not only with her beliefs and emotions, but with my own. [...]

[...] Ruburt has been reading Jung, though not consistently. [...]

When these have been passed then the diligent, consistent, intuitive and flexible seeker after knowledge will find horizons of which Freud never dreamed. [...]

[...] It is because so much hodgepodge has emerged that a disciplined and consistent investigation of this sort, on your parts, is necessary. [...]

[...] You also possess what is often called the subconscious, and this merely consists of feelings, thoughts or experiences that are connected to your conscious mind, but would be considered excess baggage if you had to be aware of them all of the time. [...]

This chapter consists of a potpourri of different ideas — merely to hint at the multitudinous issues connected with health and well-being.

(“I mean consistently over the past few years.”)

To that extent it was consistent. [...]

[...] He did not trust Ruburt’s overall consistency, you see. [...]

Therefore there was little consistent attempt made to reassure Ruburt’s emotional nature, or reach it on an emotional or physical level. [...]

[...] The suggestions given, all of them, followed consistently—and none of them were—would have led you through channels of understanding culminating in Ruburt’s recovery. [...]

[...] And you help—consistently—in a consistent program itself assures him that you do want him to be himself.

[...] The villains consisted of the following ideas: that the world is unsafe, and growing deadly; that the species itself is tainted by a deadly intent; that the individual has no power over his or her reality; that society or social conditions exist as things in themselves, and that their purposes run directly counter to the fulfillment of the individual; and lastly, that the end justifies the means, and that the action of any kind of god is powerless in the world.

[...] Virtue consisted of the best car, or house or swimming pool — proof that one could survive in a tooth-and-claw world. [...]

[...] He didn’t advocate doing anything like an operation, and his advice was consistent with Seth’s material yesterday. [...]

You are on the right track, and consistency must be applied here. [...]

Now, what would that extreme behavior consist of “at its worst?” He felt that if he were a person given to extremes, then to use his abilities he must apply due discipline so that his head was not turned, so that he did not become a victim of fame, as many other writers and artists did—or so it seemed. [...]

[...] There will be no problem with the walking, and in a short time these complete processes will be at a point where he will consistently want to do more walking on a day-by-day basis. [...]
