“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Something about the third man who could possibly be in control or something—definitely won’t be. But I think this has to do with that other stuff so you should check it. I get, Theodore, that anything involving Syracuse would, with you directly up there I guess, be definitely more confining than down here no matter what it looked like ahead of time. And something about—anything involving Syracuse would involve you as a figurehead only—no matter what you have been told ahead of time. And that there are still expansions down here—and that at least one of them could emerge or appear more clearly within a fairly short time now, say ninety days. That its outlines for this would start to make sense and emerge, but thatthere would still be something else here. And that two things would actually emerge from what seems like one thing down here. Would look like one thing but two things would be involved, actually.

Now this was Ruburt’s state before the emergence of the symptoms. The explosive first emergence represented the first forceful emergence of the problem into physical terms, but as such was actually productive and of a healing nature—much more beneficial, say, than if such emergence had not occurred.

[...] The whole idea of physical reality, individually speaking, is the emergence of experience within your particular system. [...]

[...] In many cases it is emerging into a new world. [...]

[...] A healing process is definitely involved, even with the initial emergence of the symptoms, for the psychological system finally forces the problem out into the open. [...]

[...] And as they emerge full figure so will you emerge in your stature as an artist, and in confidence.

[...] It will not overwhelm them, and yet they will definitely emerge from it, and psychologically this will represent to you a triumphant emergence of individual personality.

Various gradations in color will emerge that could otherwise take years to effect. [...]

[...] And yes, the entire figures of your people will also emerge, both in movement and repose, and you will be surprised, again, at how well the characterization will show itself through the gestures and even folds of the cloth.

[...] Any sudden emergence of a completed universe would then imply an unimaginable and a spectacular development of organization—that it did not just appear from nowhere, but as the “completed physical version” of an inner highly concentrated endeavor, the physical manifestation of an inspiration that then suddenly emerges into physical actuality.²

Such effects may (underlined) appear suddenly within time’s context, rather than slowly emerge, say, into that framework. [...]

[...] Master events emerge from that reality of idea, now, from which all ideas originate, uniting these through the use of natural correspondences. [...]

[...] Time itself emerges from idea, which is itself timeless (long pause), so in those terms there was no point where time began, though such a reference becomes necessary from your own viewpoint.

[...] Then try to trace its emergence from the thread of your own past life as you understand it, and project outward in your mind what other events might emerge from that one to become action in your probable future. [...]

[...] The picture can be from the past or the present, but try to see it as a snapshot of a self poised in perfect focus, emerging from an underneath dimension in which other probable pictures could have been taken. That self, you see, emerges triumphantly, unique and unassailable in its own experience; yet in the features you see before you — in this stance, posture, expression — there are also glimmerings, tintings or shadings, that are echoes belonging to other probabilities. [...]

As you are looking at one photograph in your personal history, that represents your emergence in this particular reality — or the reality that was accepted as official at the time it was taken — so you are looking at a picture of a representative of your species, caught in a particular moment of probability. [...]

[...] People are always searching for master languages, or for one in particular out of which all others emerged. [...] In the same manner people search for gods, or a God, out of which all psyches emerged. [...]

[...] The unknown portions of the psyche and its greater horizons, therefore, have often been perceived as gods or as the greater psyches out of which the self emerged — as for example Latin is a source for the Romance languages.

[...] This automatically meant that emerging man, in that framework, must let go of a certain kind of animal comprehension that was extremely valuable overall, but could inhibit ego growth … For many centuries there was no clear-cut differentiation between various species of man and animal … There were also, of course, parallel developments in the emergence of physical man. [...] At the same time a great give-and-take was occurring at all levels — including vegetation, for example — so that together the creatures and the earth worked out the kind of stability best suited for the particular kind of developments that were to emerge.

(Pause.) Now: While you believe that consciousness somehow emerges from dead matter, you will never understand yourselves, and you will always be looking for the point at which life took on form. You will always have to wonder about a kind of mechanical birth of the universe—and it will indeed seem as if your own world was made up of the spare parts that somehow fell together in just such a fashion so that life later emerged.

You are filled with questions about when and where the various species appeared, and how the rocks were formed, when some reptiles grew wings, when some fish emerged from the oceans and learned to breathe air, and you are bound to wonder what happened in the times in between.

[...] I do want to point out, however, that a state you usually call dreaming is but a dim indication of an inner reality of events (intently), an inner order of events from which the physical world emerges. [...]

[...] You can see how your own creativity is emerging in the notes for Mass Events. Granted, you need time to write physically, but the basic creativity has its own ‘time.’

(I do want to note, however, that I met Dr. Jeff Karder as I walked down the hall from the emergency room today, on my way to climb the stairs to 330. [...]

[...] All of this is done playfully, and yet emerges with the greatest display of order and design.

[...] At still other levels of reality, activities that you now consciously claim as your own have — in those same terms and from another viewpoint — become unconscious, providing a psychic history from which other identities emerge, as it seems that your own identities emerge from unconscious bodily activity.

Your very physical life, then, implies a “source,” a life out of which the physical one emerges, dash — the implied, unspoken, unmaterialized, unsounded vitality that supplied the ingredients for the physical, bodily, molecular “alphabet.” [...]

[...] Any one event implies the existence of probable events which do not “emerge,” which are not “spoken.” [...]

[...] Clues as to our creativity and the nature of our existence can be found there and from it emerges the organizational qualities of normal consciousness as we know it.

And so the exterior world emerges from the interior one even as this physical book materialized from the inner reality of inspiration, creativity and dreams.

Each thought or emotion therefore exists as an electromagnetic energy unit or as a combination of these under certain conditions, and often with the help of coordinate points, they emerge into the building blocks of physical matter. This emergence into matter occurs as a neutral “result” regardless of the nature of any given thought or emotion. [...]

[...] They are, if you prefer, incipient particles that have not yet emerged into matter.

Your own kind of focus emerged from such a background, so that within yourselves you contain myriad consciousnesses of which you are unaware. Through your own particular focus, the consciousnesses of the natural world merged to form a synthesis in which, for example, symphonies can emerge. [...]

(10:44.) To some extent it is true to say that languages emerged as you began to lose direct communication with your own experience, and with that of others. [...]

[...] Feelings and emotions emerge into reality in certain specific ways. [...]

These ancient aspects lie, now, deeply buried in the psyches of all species, and from them the individual patterns, the specific blueprints for new differentiations, emerge.

[...] Though you are not aware of it, this ego itself emerges, then falls back again into the unconscious, from which another ego then rises as a new bloom from the springtime earth.

[...] The cell rebuilds itself in line with its own pattern of identity, yet is always a part of emerging action, alive and responding even in the midst of its own multitudinous deaths.

[...] The flower knows it is alive in the bulb, but it takes “time” for the bulb to let the stem and leaves and flower emerge. [...] 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. [...]

In some systems of physical existence, a multipersonhood is established in which three or four “persons” emerge from the same inner self, each one utilizing to the best of its abilities those characteristics of its own. [...]

[...] All kinds of time — backward and forward — emerge from the basic unpredictable nature of consciousness, and are due to “series” of significances. [...]

[...] Larger concepts of personhood will indeed lead you to some glimpse of the truly remarkable gestalts of consciousness from which you constantly emerge.

[...] “If you were anyone else I’d have you at the emergency room at St. Joe’s for more blood tests,” Dr. K had told Jane at the house. [...] She suggested we go to the emergency room for blood tests, and we agreed. A few minutes later, as I was hurriedly throwing a few things into a bag, Dr. K. called again, to say that we could save the emergency room fee if she had Jane admitted directly into a room. [...]

(I made only one false turn driving to the emergency room at St. Joe’s, since we’d never been there before, but found the entrance easily. [...] They were waiting for us in the emergency room. [...]

[...] Man’s emerging ego therefore brought forth emotional and psychological problems and challenges. [...]

Sometime before the emergence of the Hebrew god these tendencies were apparent. [...]

[...] He became the reflection of man’s emerging ego, with all of its brilliance, savagery, power, and intent for mastery. [...]

[...] Yet in its emergence it provided the inner self with a new kind of feedback, a different view not only of itself; but through this, the inner self was able to glimpse possibilities of development of which it had not previously been aware. [...]

(Pause.) When, at this point now, of mankind’s development, his emerging unconscious knowledge is denied by his institutions, then it will rise up despite those institutions, and annihilate them. (Pause.) Cult after cult will emerge, each unrestrained by the use of reason, because reason will have denied the existence of rampant unconscious knowledge, disorganized and feeling only its own ancient force.

[...] (Long pause.) The consciousness that you know can indeed now emerge into even greater realization of itself, but not by obsessively defending its old position. [...]

[...] The ego, emerging, needed to feel its dominance and control, and so it imagined a dominant god apart from nature. [...]

(Faster at 10:45:) The god concept then was an aid, and an important one, to man’s emerging ego. [...]

Dictation: Your next question is easy to anticipate, of course, for you will want to know the origin of that “interior” universe from which I have said the exterior one ever emerges — and here we must part company with treasured objectivity, and enter instead a mental domain, in which it is seen that contradictions are not errors; an inner domain large enough to contain contradictions at one level, for at another level they are seen to be no contradictions at all.

[...] That particular overall method of separation leads to such questions as: “Which species came first, and which came later, and how did the various species emerge — one from the other?” Those questions are further brought about by your time classifications, without which they would be meaningless.

[...] On such occasions, each person is to some extent aware of a kind of comprehension that is not dependent upon the accumulation of data, but of a deeper kind of experience and direct encounter with the reality from which the world emerges.

Now: Spontaneity knows its own order, and it is from spontaneous order that all secondary classifications of order emerge. [...]

[...] Creativity is still the closest field of endeavor that can possibly teach you about the origin of the species, for your creativity mimics that higher creative spontaneity, out of which all (underlined) order emerges (again intently). [...]

[...] Ruburt’s spontaneity let all of his creative abilities emerge. [...]
