“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He could quite happily accept your early rising but he felt that you poked fun at him when he spoke of working at night or rising early—again not understanding how he could utilize extremes.

[...] I mentioned and suggested his rising very early for several reasons, knowing full well a challenge and resistance would result. [...]

[...] The dilemma does not exist at night or very early in the morning.

[...] Maybe, we thought, we could get supper finished before Paul showed up, if we got started with it a little early. [...]

(We did get started on supper a bit early—but Paul O’Neill didn’t show up at all. [...]

[...] That early rapport, that early mixture, would later be remembered in myths of gods in animal form. [...]

1. Seth is letting his material automatically answer my question about early man; See Appendix 6, as well as Note 7 for Session 688. According to our dictionary, the geologic time span he indicates in tonight’s session falls within the Tertiary Period of the Cenozoic Era. [...]

[...] [See session 472 in Volume 9 of The Early Sessions.] Material on Jane’s symptoms, interior and exterior illness, inner-self constructions and challenges, recognizing problems, etc. [...]

Looking back, it is obvious that I had unknowingly reached a crisis of development — a crisis that comes to each of us in our early adulthood. [...]

[...] Certainly this frightened me and was probably partly responsible for the feelings expressed in the following poem — feelings, I think, that are quite prevalent during early adulthood:

[...] The last two show early indications of emerging intuitive knowledge. [...]

Her heavily applied, overly feminine characteristics, were donned by her to hold him in the early years. [...]

[...] The sons left early, but he refuses to leave. [...]

[...] Some have been given (in early 1964).

The early ideas given to you by your parents, then, structure your learning experiences themselves. They set the safe boundaries within which you can operate in early years. [...]

[...] This acquiescence to belief, then, is important in the early stages as infant develops into child. [...]

Underneath all of this, you carry indelibly within you your own knowledge of your identity, meaning and purpose, but in the early stages of development great care is taken to see that you relate in physical terms. [...]

And as for books, early in August I returned to our publisher, Prentice-Hall, the page proofs Jane had corrected for her book of poetry: If We Live Again: Or, Public Magic and Private Love. Ordinarily that event would have delighted us, since it meant that before the year was out she’d have another work published. [...] Finally, early in December 1981 I told Jane I was on the verge of refusing to sit with her for any sessions at all, regular or private, for I’d become deeply afraid that the more sessions she held the worse she’d get. [...]

All of that work—and more—accounts for the long delay in the completion of Dreams, “Evolution,” and Value Fulfillment. Actually, with the exception of one session held in November 1980, I let my work on the book go for over 13 months, from early June 1980 to mid-July 1981.

[...] Very unusual, by the way—her coming through with dictation from whatever source this early in the day.)

[...] She realized immediately that it was connected to the extraordinary series of dreams she began having early this month. [...]

“Camouflage” became a familiar word to us in those early sessions, and we thought it an excellent one for Seth’s purposes — but rather oddly, except for using it once in a while in recent years, he’s largely dropped it from his vocabulary.

[...] These two warring elements are deeply bound up in psychic work because they were deeply bound up early in religious and mystic connotations in Catholic upbringing.

[...] Ruburt’s early mystic life was also bound up with priests who were males, with whom one could not have any sexual relationship. [...]

[...] The early philosophical poetry represented a philosophy of pessimism. [...]

[...] And an A, with a large family and a particular picture of the family, old, three girls with large hair ribbons, two boys, several years older, picture taken on porch steps very early 1900’s. Perhaps in a city B or the name begins with B. And a sister, a career woman before this was general practice.

Now, Ruth: a rather early illness, of years, I believe.

(She called me rather early last night. [...]

(I finished early so I’d have some extra time to open the account for Jane’s hospital expenses — but wouldn’t you know it, the phone rang at 11:50 a.m. It was someone from social services at the hospital. [...]

[...] And an A, with a large family and a particular picture of the family, old, three girls with large hair ribbons, two boys, several years older, picture taken on porch steps very early 1900’s. Perhaps in a city B or the name begins with B. And a sister, a career woman before this was general practice. [...]

Now, Rachel: A rather early illness, of years, I believe. [...]

(It is of interest here to note that a current Biblical reference work, in dealing with the very early history of Israel, has much to say about the “oral traditions” which preceded — and thus helped shape — the written word by many centuries. [...] Recent work has shown that the early gathering and writing of traditions dates from about the twelfth century B.C. This in turn led to the biblical books. [...]

[...] Early man could see only the destruction. [...]

[...] Now, strong portions of Jewish scriptures carry traces of the message of these early Speakers, but even here, distortions have hidden the messages.

[...] The first one came early this morning after I’d shoveled but a few scoops of snow in the driveway—no work involved at all, really, but I had to quit for fear of having an “attack” of some kind. [...]

[...] I still want to study all of those early personal sessions, but haven’t progressed far because of all the new material we’ve been getting lately. [...]

In your culture, this portion of the self is formed in childhood and early school years. [...]

[...] I was with her when she died in her sleep at that early-morning hour in September 1984. [...]

[...] The 15 three-ring binders containing her poems, all neatly typed, for example; her essays and journals; other blocks of unpublished Seth material, one of which I mentioned in the Introduction; an unfinished autobiography that perhaps I could put into publishable shape; likewise, passages from an unfinished fourth Oversoul Seven novel, in which Jane dealt with Seven’s childhood; a book of her paintings, with commentary; several early novels that I still believe merit publishing. [...]

(Long pause.) Originally the early races of man knew better. [...]

Schools require a large body of knowledge already accumulated, of course, so to the early species schools as such were meaningless. [...]

[...] Our early evening hour passed as usual until I was getting ready to put on my jacket to leave. [...]

[...] Because of the individual freedom of creation implied in the city’s very existence, and in Jane’s early poem in Note 2, I’ll close this appendix with another of her verses. [...]

[...] Once again in an early work we see clear signs of the Seth material to come (in 1963). [...]

[...] The clash with the emotional aspects occurred only when a system of thought seemed formulated that would oppose the early emotional views.

(“How come these early emotional ideas haven’t been influenced, at least somewhat modified by all the intuitive and intellectual activity, and new ideas, that have developed and taken place in the last few years?”)

[...] You do have more to work with than you realize once this is understood though, for there are also strong emotional drives toward the desire for truth that can be allied with the early released ones—but these must be released and understood first.

[...] Jane started reading yesterday’s session, was interrupted by LuAnn checking her blood pressure early. [...]

[...] Failing that, he’ll be there early Wednesday afternoon. [...]
