“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Intellectually you have no use for those beliefs but emotionally they are still a part of you. [...]

([Brad:] “Does that mean that solutions should come more from an emotional rather than a rational—?”)

(Again, during the break the point that “the answers are within us” was being discussed and the further point that these answers were evolved emotionally rather than wholly rationally. [...]

If you do not give up the misconceptions, then your emotions will be those of self-pity and despondency and they will lead you astray. [...]

It is the emotional recognition, not the intellectual recognition, that is important. [...]

(Note that most of tonight’s data stems from the strong emotional charges surrounding the gathering of Barbara, Dick and Jane in the backyard, during the time Jane wrote the poem to me used as object. I had picked the poem as object in the frank hope that it would have strong emotional attraction for Jane. [...]

[...] Such a wish is very seldom on a conscious level, but it is often emotionally charged, and it brings forth immediate results because of the charge it carries. [...]

[...] Any charged emotional feeling will almost immediately be made actual. [...]

[...] I had a sneezing spell at break, probably because of the emotional content of the above material.

[...] Will you accept him as the emotional creature that he is, as you accept the intellectual creature that he is? [...]

I am speaking generally here, for remember that your individual beliefs, thoughts, and emotions cause your reality, so no person dies ahead of his or her time. [...]

[...] Jane didn’t know about trying an emotional subject like an autobiography with someone else, though. [...]

[...] Regardless of what he believes about himself, his complete belief in me will only be arrived at intuitively and emotionally.

[...] The intellect will never, alone, convince the emotions of any fact.

[...] Feelings and emotion caused tensions under certain conditions that are not necessarily physically apparent, but that change the body. [...] Ruburt is completely changing emotional and intellectual beliefs of long standing. [...]

[...] For example, in your culture some people feel that there is a struggle between their hearts and their heads, a conflict between emotion and reason, in other words. [...]

[...] I have always dealt with emotion, but he deals with those realities that make emotions possible. [...]

[...] My total emotional immersion may be far away from your system, in your terms, when I know I am wanted here, therefore I can appear here. [...]

The initial contagion in such cases is always emotional and mental. [...]

[...] They are responsive to emotional states. [...]

[...] At the time (she wrote later for me) emotionally she objected strenuously to that message of Seth’s, since “it seemed too easy a way to sign off a cat’s life — or any other life — even if it was true. [...]

[...] It wasn’t that the loss of “just a cat” was the only thing involved in our deep upsets (although Billy’s death came first in our reactions); we also felt a host of emotional and intellectual ramifications arising from that event. [...]

(Long pause.) While you and Ruburt embark upon a resolved path of getting to the bottom of Ruburt’s difficulties, it is highly important that Ruburt in particular increase his experience of pleasure, and his concentration upon it, so that pleasure can counter any other emotionally distressful feelings that may emerge along the way.

[...] Again, we want, say, the release of painful thoughts or emotions somehow balanced by the steps I gave today, so that they provide a kind of supporting framework.

[...] (Pause.) The main, driving, clear, emotional intent in such a project is the author’s. The book is his baby. Remember, we are dealing with emotional intensities—and it is because of emotional intensities that our books are in so many homes. [...]

[...] It is particularly dependent upon emotional characteristics — not necessarily of the last incarnated self, but the emotional tensions present as a result of a group of past existences.

(10:40.) They are emotional. [...]

[...] This may be perceived as bursts of dark or light colors in motion, or simply one particular emotion of great force may be felt. If it is very strong, one emotion may be felt in many such guises. In the case of both thoughts and emotions, with great confidence you pluck out those that are connected with the malady. [...]

[...] It was this emotional reaction that was felt by the other individual, and the other individual had no idea what this emotion was.

[...]

The pulsations were caused by the action of your emotional state. [...]

[...] Sensations are perceptions; emotions perceived in terms of color, and directly in terms of intensities. [...]

[...] He might think that “aggressiveness,”⁶ competition, and emotional aloofness were required to perform that role. These would be considered in opposition to the qualities of love, understanding, and emotional support “required” of a husband. [...]

[...] The composer was exultant in the midst of the deepest emotions of tragedy, or even of defeat. In such cases the tragedy itself is chosen as an emotional framework upon which the psyche plays. [...]

[...] But even then we were impressed — awed — by its creative power, over and above the obvious emotional connotations we put upon it.

[...] Within its great reaches it would transform its counterparts’ actions in ways that were, quite possibly, beyond our emotional and intellectual grasp. [...]

[...] And if an individual strongly disliked a counterpart in another land, wouldn’t this quality of emotion be detrimentally reflected in the person doing the hating?

(In Chapter 19 of Personal Reality, I found this line of Seth’s in the 667th session for May 30, 1973:) For reason and emotion are natural counterparts.

Quite literally, the “inner” self forms the body by magically transforming thoughts and emotions into physical counterparts …

(Toward the end of the session, I was in an emotional turmoil, still in trance and for this Barb told me at the time she had no explanation. [...]

(Pause.) Each species is endowed with emotional feelings, immersed in an interior system of value fulfillment. [...]

I am not speaking of greatness in terms of fame, or in terms of usually understood artistic or intellectual abilities alone, but also of people whose lives have the capacity for great emotional content. [...]

[...] It is an emotionally-charged position, an imminent crisis. [...]

This is somewhat similar to your own emotional feelings when time seems speeded up or slowed down, but it is vastly different in important ways. [...]

[...] You are learning now, in a three-dimensional context, the ways in which your emotional and psychic existence can create varieties of physical form. [...]

[...] Quite literally, you see what you want to see, and you see your own thoughts, your own emotional attitudes, materialized in physical form. [...]

[...] It is important that you all realize the ways in which your attitudes and feelings affect others through telepathic workings, and the ways in which the smallest thought affects your own emotions, and the physical condition of your image.
