[...] You might say that their mental and psychic development exists, comparatively speaking, at least several levels above your own. Their natural capabilities, however, developed from the human stock, and lie latent within your species. [...] (Pause.)

(At times Jane wakes me up at night; she’s very nearly crying in discomfort, yet now we understand that those feelings represent her muscles wanting to be used; so far, though, we haven’t managed to get ourselves out of bed at such times, which usually develop perhaps an hour before the alarm is to ring; these bouts, then, happen after she’s usually slept for several hours, and the body wants action.

Write down or enumerate all of your known physical and mental abilities, whether they have been developed or not, and all of those inclinations toward particular activities — even those only remotely considered — as well as those that have come at all vividly to mind.

Whatever talents you sense you have can be developed only if you determine to do so. [...]

These developments are the result of actions that occur in many perspectives at once and not developments that happen as within the physical system through a seeming series of moments. [...] As a result, the ego portion of personality is, to a large extent, dependent for its maturity and development upon the amount of time that the physical image has spent within the system.

[...] It is the first time, so to speak, that the personality, seriously tried to merge them, and yet for prime development and fulfillment this had to be accomplished. The personality regards this as a challenge of the highest order, but strains naturally develop.

The psychic development was one of the main issues of importance he had been waiting for, and several circumstances had to be met first. [...] There had to be a strong need to propel the development, as impetus. [...]

Once the development occurred however the personality knew it would now have to face the main issue: how to handle its own creativity, and find a comfortable balance between spontaneity and discipline. [...]

[...] The purpose however was two-fold again, the development of an environment in which controls would be there: the symptoms taking the place in this case of the mother’s restrictive presence, and the comparative isolation in the house, the comparative solitude that he felt was necessary then for the emergence of the creative abilities—both of these you see existing in the child environment.

[...] For solving them is a challenge and helps your own development. [...]

[...] The material which I have given is not given in a jovial manner, even though I speak jovially at times, and for your own development it is imperative that you understand it and apply it. [...]

[...] I can only to some extent communicate at this channel, yet you realize that the Seth you know, while a part of my identity, is nevertheless independent, and progresses along the lines of his own development. [...]

[...] You need concentration and focus and a strong impetus, and you can develop these and use them. [...]

[...] I appreciate the effort and I thank you, but for your own development, you must still look inward. [...]

[...] The person that you seek is here, but he is with you, and has never parted from you, and even though he continues his existence in another dimension you are not divided nor separated; and you will gain from his added development, for he will telepathically let you understand matters that you did not understand before.

You are developing along certain lines, your interest in the outdoors now reflecting your earlier male existences. [...]

[...] Man’s “I am,” [seemingly] apart from nature — a characteristic necessary for the development of his kind of consciousness — led him into value judgments, and also necessitated some break with the deep inner certainties of other species.

[...] At the same time, as the mind developed, cunning and memory became highly effective survival tools. [...]

In your terms, consciousness of self did not develop because of any exterior circumstances in which your species won out, so to speak. [...] In their own ways, they “yearn” toward all probable developments. [...]

[...] One of these developments will occur in our sessions, one in particular through Ruburt outside of a session, I believe, and another should take place initially Joseph through you. [...]
