“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He has indeed learned, the hard way, lessons that he had to learn if he were to further develop. [...]

He developed this objective manner originally years ago because he feared he could not control his own spontaneity. [...]

[...] Ruburt can use it to insure his intuitional psychic and spiritual development.

[...] You are approaching some excellent periods in your lives, periods that would not have been possible had Ruburt not fully accepted, as he now has, the emergence of his abilities and his responsibility to develop them.

[...] His development allows this to happen. [...]

[...] They are not developed enough to have peace within themselves. [...]

Ruburt is developing his abilities, and I helped him on that occasion. [...]

[...] At a lesser degree of development this would not be the case. [...]

The very experience however, with all of its triumphs and insights had to bring to the foreground personal problems of development that many people simply do not face, or come to grips with. Strains and tensions developed, but in grappling with these and with the physical symptoms, new insights were reached.

[...] It is not as well developed however as he supposes. [...]

[...] In the beginning of the psychic work you were concerned at spontaneous sessions, and while you were highly intrigued by the developments. [...]

[...] Without the psychic development, your combined background could have quite undermined your creative abilities entirely. [...]

Give yourself an opportunity to learn, understand and develop. [...]

The whole purpose of what I am trying to teach is to allow yourself inner freedom to develop. [...]

[...] They have an inbred sense of self-satisfaction and self-appreciation, and they instinctively feel that it is natural and good for them to explore and develop their capabilities.

All of those attitudes provide the strength and mental health that promotes their physical growth and development. [...]

The fetus is propelled by the expectation of future growth and development. [...]

[...] Most individuals, for example, develop intellectually or emotionally or physically, ignoring to a large degree the body’s and the mind’s full potential. [...]

[...] Anything apparent to whatever degree in your system is developed in another.

[...] The petal of a flower, for example, is not more developed than the root. [...]

[...] So in your terms, it may seem as if there are progressions, or consecutive steps of development, in which more mature comprehensive selves will emerge. [...]

[...] This particular, more advanced telepathy could not and did not occur in its most complicated form until the development within your plane of psychically developed personalities. This development involved separations and concentrations of energy into self-conscious identities. This development was an advancement, yet this advancement led also to a separation and objectifying of consciousness, into dual segments of subject and object.

[...] That belief will always bring the best possible developments from Framework 2. Ruburt should concentrate on his creative work. [...] There are several good developments coming your way that I will let you discover, and there should be some definite improvements in Ruburt’s eyes—I would say, very quickly.

Had your goals previous to your psychic experiences been adequate to your natures, and sufficient to you, nothing else would have developed—nor would you have been seeking so avidly answers to the kinds of questions that then and now concern you.

[...] You sought instead questions that would stretch your abilities, and develop them, that would bring out all nuances before unknown to you. [...]

[...] This event initiated her psychic development; almost ten years after its conception the work still serves as a “touchstone” for her — and today Jane discovered concepts in it that she’d been blind to earlier. [...]

[...] The more often you use these mental implements, the more proficient you become in developing and fulfilling your own unique gifts. [...]

[...] Others can help you in their own way, and at certain levels of development such help is necessary and good. [...]

[...] As mentioned (in the 628th session in Chapter Six), there was a time before his condition developed when his “good-self thoughts” and his “bad-self thoughts” vied for his attention, and the body tried desperately to react to constant, alternating and often contradictory concepts.

For all of life’s seeming misfortunes, development, fulfillment, and accomplishment far outweigh death, diseases, and disasters. [...]

I am not saying that AIDS victims are outright suicides — only that in many instances the will to live is so weakened and a despondency so strong sets in that such individuals often acquiesce, finally, to their own deaths, seeing no room in the future for their own further growth or development.

[...] The idea is to clear the mind as much as possible from beliefs that impede the fine, smooth workings of the life force, and to actively encourage those beliefs and attitudes that promote health and the development of all aspects of healing experience.

[...] At microscopic levels, in fact, no one fits any norm, and there is no way to predict with complete certainty the development of any genetic element. You can make group predictions, and overall make certain judgments, but other elements are involved, so that any particular genetic element cannot be pinned down in terms of its development. [...]

[...] So as we progress, I hope to show where all of these situations fit in with the development of the individual and the species.

[...] One of the paintings you did many years ago clearly foreshadowed the development of your psychic endeavors. [...]

[...] As Ruburt grows to understand, therefore, and as he continues to develop, he triumphs not only for himself but for all those who follow his ventures. [...]

(10:00.) It goes without saying that on much deeper levels there is no reluctance on Ruburt’s part, or the abilities would not have developed in this fashion. [...]

The pupil must be encouraged, but not overly extended while development continues. [...] Great care must be utilized, even before serious learning can begin, that all levels of the personality develop at a more or less constant rate.

[...] We face many challenges of quite momentous nature, and we realize that our purposes are not only important in themselves, but for the surprising offshoots that develop in our efforts to pursue them. [...]

[...] At one time some years ago, at a writers’ conference, she became involved in circumstances that could have led to her psychic development before she was ready. [...]

[...] These personalities willingly take roles, knowing that they are roles, in order to lead the others toward the necessary realization and development. [...] Their purpose is to open up within the three-dimensional selves those psychological doorways that will release the three-dimensional self for further development in another system of reality.

[...] They are a material development, as your consciousness opens up and expresses itself in as many ways as possible. [...]

[...] Each setting brings forth new developments.

It is also true however that this lack of boundary allows for possibilities of development and expansion that would be impossible with a limited self. [...]

[...] Each self is interwound with all others, and yet each self, being composed of action, has within it the powers of action toward change, development, expansion, and the drive toward fulfillment.

[...] Action develops according to value fulfillment, and value fulfillment has little to do with size or numbers; and action turns to consciousness. [...]

The ego is indeed a necessity within the physical field at this point of man’s development. [...]

[...] Your knowing also changes the picture, and sometimes could bring into the present elements that would be accepted wholeheartedly months hence, after the development, but not at the point of your knowing ahead of time.

[...] I also know more specifically in your terms the time schedule of Ruburt’s recovery, and important developments regarding it. [...]

[...] And when you are in such a state you do not develop. Sometimes you are safe, but you do not develop and often you are not even safe. [...]

[...] You are looking inward and you are accepting the responsibility for yourself and your own development. [...]

[...] Therefore you are meant to use your abilities and to develop them, and when I speak of abilities I do not necessarily mean psychic abilities alone. [...]

Now it is here that the seeming division in the self occurs, for in physical life the conscious mind must be connected with the brain, and in terms of time that organ itself must grow and develop. [...] The portion that must “wait for” the brain’s development is the part you call in life “the conscious mind.”

[...] (Pause.) Many of you for your own reasons pursue courses that do not involve an even development of abilities, an overall balanced picture, for example, but choose to express and experiment with certain qualities to the exclusion of others. [...]

[...] Jane’s hour-long trance had indeed developed into a profound one. [...]

[...] You know you live these seemingly different lives simultaneously, as you gain development, but it is always you gaining development in a variety of roles. [...]

Consciously, you are able to focus within, understand, and gain development in, one field of reality at a time. [...]

Your consciousness expands and develops according to its own abilities. [...]

[...] Without the struggle for these ideals a complacent vacuum develops. [...] (Long pause.) If there is an honest struggle, an honest effort toward peace and brotherhood, then even if war erupts on a practical level then the psychic development is healthier than if no effort toward peace is made, or if ideals are merely mouthed.

[...] As it developed Seth spoke the entire evening, in a voice about as usual, with pauses, eyes open often.)

[...] A holier-than-thou attitude developed into a spiritual hypocrisy. [...]

[...] The best that is in them, whatever their point of development. [...]
