“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The elderly widow fears living alone now, and hopes her children will take her in. [...]

You will say later: “If the rent hadn’t been raised we might have been in that place the rest of our days—who knows?” and laugh, but at times you still feared that that might indeed be the case.

[...] It fears the taking of false gods, you see.

[...] The overly conscientious self fears to use the word of God, or the word God. [...]

[...] You worry for your physical identity and limit the extent of your perceptions for fear you cannot handle more and retain your selfhood.

[...] If you had a more thorough understanding of the nature of identity you would not, for example, fear telepathy, for behind this concern is the worry that your identity will be swept away by the suggestions or thoughts of others.

(2. I found myself wondering if my own attitudes might have strongly influenced Jane’s early psychic behavior in ways neither of us suspected—that she may have inhibited certain elements of her abilities because she feared my own ideas about distractions, time, failure, etc. [...] I speculated about whether her sitting on such desires, not daring to admit them, say, might have surfaced as fear of scorn and criticism, and so forth. [...]

[...] I’d broken a tooth last night, and feared I’d lose it.

[...] We have fear and rage on the part of the girl, for despite the children she is yet a girl, and a very nice one. [...]

She feels threatened by serious conversation, Philip, for she fears the unknown. [...]

Your anger is interpreted simply as violence, and she fears it. [...]

She fears, for one thing, that you could run the house more efficiently than she can, and basically that you do not need her. [...]

[...] However she is fearful of them, fearing mostly a quite actual lack of discipline. [...]

It is actually a most dependable measure, as far as its attitude and condition is concerned, in that if it becomes overly concerned the concern is caused by a fear for its own survival. [...]

[...] I did not feel that she was worrying about its accuracy particularly, merely that such information is evidently more carefully presented by Seth lest it arouse such outer ego fears; hence it “comes out” at a slower rate. [...]

[...] A strong inclination to go ahead independently with his ideas, balanced by the desire to find security within the system, and the fear to leave it. [...]

You could to some extent feel your body coming together and dispersing constantly, and understand how you hover within it without fearing your own annihilation upon its dismantlement.

[...] You would not fear death as annihilation, and would feel your own consciousness gently disentangle itself from those others that so graciously couched it.

[...] A sequence of dreams, Jane said, would give a much better perspective on the dreamer’s challenges, fear, etc., in life, and yield much better insights. [...]

(She didn’t think any fear of making predictions that might turn out to be wrong had anything to do with her concern.

[...] Man’s fears of not achieving brotherhood, of not achieving a secure state of consciousness, or a workable morality, result in his dreams of destruction, however they are expressed, and indeed, the present physical event as it exists now at the energy plant in Harrisburg can easily be likened to—and is—a warning dream to change man’s actions.

[...] Unfortunately, again, within the framework of your beliefs this also becomes almost a necessity for many — especially for those who, because of previous experience of one kind or another with the disease, are almost irrational in their fear of it. The literature and announcements act as strong negative suggestions, following the nature of natural hypnosis — as a conditioning process, you see, where you are looking for specific symptoms, and examining your body under the impetus of fear.

[...] In their own way symptoms frequently operate, actually, as repetitive neurological ritual, meant to protect the sufferer from something else that he fears even more.

[...] It is only because the ego blocks freedom of the emotional expression, out of fear, that it appears to the ego that emotions are indeed fearful characteristics. [...]

[...] It fears loss of control and of discipline. [...]

[...] A reliance and faith in the natural self, however, would be large enough to accept certain indispositions without fear, panic, or doubt. With the best of intent most public health announcements shout the symptoms of critical diseases to the skies, so that the smallest of indispositions becomes the trigger for personal fear on the part of millions. Such announcements actually teach people to fear what might be happening within the body. [...]

[...] Because I am attached to Ruburt now, his ideas of course color many of mine, so his fear of the passing years developed upon your fear of them ten years ago, projected now into your future, as ten years older than he. [...]

[...] I thought that probably the feelings should be allowed to come out violently, but we were inhibited by our surroundings, and probably fear, etc. [...]

[...] The fear under those circumstances of letting go, and yet the fear has to do with the deeper fear involving the nature of your own inner faith—thoughts, of course, of being annihilated, not however by the emotions of another, but by your own.

[...] You are afraid of fear. You are openly vulnerable, not only to fear, but to the creativity that courses through your being. [...]

(Valerie told of being afraid of the fears she has.)

If, as Jane dictated in her session for April 17, “We live in a world slung between our dearest hopes and greatest fears,” then surely it can be said that she’s chosen to delve into at least some of her “greatest fears.” [...] I think that if parts of her psyche “fear those fears,” other parts do not—or that at least they chose to confront them, and actually began doing so many years ago. [...]

[...] In some cases there will be a great fear of becoming lost among all of those realities. [...] But that must happen all of the time!) The uncertainty perceived here by the conscious self, however, can act as a great restraint toward knowing a future life or lives—just as much as might the fear of tuning into one’s physical death ahead of time in this life. [...]

[...] (See Appendix 12 for Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.) Seth referred to the conventional, culturally instilled fear of death that most of us carry, of course. [...]

[...] A strong inclination to go ahead independently with his ideas, balanced by the desire to find security within the system, and the fear to leave it. [...]

[...] You have at different times adopted different methods and adjustments, but your physical relationship has been structured not around mutual pleasure but instead about the fear of having children.

[...] He would not have his periods—thus he would show both of you, symbolically, that you need not fear his body, since it obviously was not functioning as a woman’s should.

[...] You distrusted spontaneous relations most of all, for those were the ones most likely (laugh) to produce the feared results. [...]

[...] When you were working full time some years ago at Artistic your fears that Ruburt would become pregnant became an obsession. [...]

The disability of the present mother is a result of that personality’s own problems, and Ruburt does not have to fear such a circumstance in his own condition. [...] His fear of relaxation is actually rather simply based and superficial, in that it does not have its source in a past life but in this one.

[...] A fear has been developed by the present personality resulting directly from early circumstances. [...]

The fear is the result of the mother’s mockery of the father, and I believe this will make sense to Ruburt even consciously. [...]
