“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

This creation involves not merely the juggling of energy units and fields, from one form to another, but also involves the setting up of new fields. [...]

[...] All of this will show itself to you in its truly logical perfection, in time, and much of this will be important in many seemingly diverse fields.

[...] That is, any given portion of energy has within it the capacity to take on any pattern or to form an infinite number of energy fields, each one giving forth a truly infinite variety of result.

[...] Had Ruburt not been available, the material would have been given to a Speaker, living in your terms, who was also involved in the creative field.

[...] To paraphrase: Using this sense, an observer standing on a typical street would feel the experience of being anything he chose within his field of notice: people, trees, insects, blades of grass. [...]

[...] To operate adequately in your highly specific field (pause), an almost infinite amount of information must be instantly assimilated, probabilities calculated, and certain balances maintained of which you are not even aware.

[...] Instead there is a field of rich interaction. [...]

From this focus position communication may be set up between personality essences no longer in the physical field, and those still in it, provided that those still in it are able to remove focus from the ego to this particular level. [...]

[...] When the proper focus point is reached however, these communications will result in rapport between the living and that portion of personality essences, or so-called dead, who are still at least psychically connected with life on your field.

The Frank Watts material represented communication on the first level of undifferentiated fields. [...]

In other words, Ruburt’s ego should be and is properly concerned with contact, development and progress in the physical field. [...]

The book will definitely be a success, and a financial one, that will represent his initiation into a field to which he will contribute in no small manner. [...] The reasons are fairly simple, for this field is one in which Ruburt’s innermost energies and interests are already rooted.

It was far from inevitable that he turn to this field but the innermost portions of his personality were drawn to it, and within this field he can develop his abilities, mature, and contribute. [...]

[...] Persons in various fields will put our ideas to work.

[...] We’ve realized for some time that Jane is sensitive to those subjects, particularly religion; she had strict training in that field as a youngster. [...]

An internal drama is carried on by each individual, a psychic drama which is finally projected outward with great force upon the field of history. [...]

[...] His viewpoint and his field of reference will at all times color to some extent or another the nature of the reality which he perceives.

[...] His perception of basic reality in one way does not change the nature of that reality or of that action, as it exists independently of his field of reference. [...]

[...] Unfortunately the knowledge that his book will be published, while bringing him much satisfaction, has also served to remind him of the manner in which he fears many might look upon both our sessions and his past endeavors in this field.

For practical purposes you might say, and for practical purposes only, that on your plane the self is limited only by the fields of energy that it can control. [...]

[...] Initially, before existence upon the physical plane this time, you could just as easily have focused upon a different quality-personality gestalt, although your choice most probably would be in line with a large field of possibilities, possible according to the desires of your entity.

[...] Although you have chosen to form a particular group of qualities into a field pattern of a particular personality, upon which you focus the bulk of your energy, there are also other more shadowy, less well-constructed possibilities of personality selves that exist loosely within the psychic framework of the dominant personality, and these also have their influence. [...]

This is extremely important, since the dream world operates within the dimensions of your own psychic field, but utterly divorced from both space-time continuum and physical construction. [...]

[...] He is aware of light and shadow, of shape and form, though he must learn to distinguish those portions of the available field of reality that you accept as objects, from the available field that you do not accept as objects. [...]

[...] In a large sense he begins to train himself to focus only upon what you would call physical reality, though he still partially perceives other fields that you do not accept.

[...] Yet it is no accident that greater discoveries are often made by “amateurs” — those who are relatively free from official dogmas, released from the pressure to get ahead in a given field — those whose creativity flows freely and naturally in those areas of their natural interest.

[...] The idea of interrelated fields comes closer, of course, yet even here you are simply changing one kind of term for one like it, only slightly different. [...]

[...] We had briefly discussed Einstein’s work and some allied subjects before tonight’s session, but I hadn’t asked her to give material on physics through Seth.⁵ In her own way, Jane is quite interested in the field, however, and has done a little work in it with scientists. [...]

[...] This spin isn’t the orbital motion of the electron around a nucleus, however, but (very briefly) is actually more a measure of the electron’s magnetic field.

[...] She meant that she wouldn’t have become associated with “the cheap psychic field,” not that she’d have given up working with the Seth material. [...]

I also want to emphasize that your present beliefs limit the full and free operation of your intellects, as far as your established fields of knowledge are concerned, for science has placed so many taboos, limiting the areas of free intellectual inquiry. [...]

A brilliant mathematician or scientist, or even an artist, or an accepted genius in any field, can be an emotional incompetent, but no one considers him as retarded. [...]

[...] No matter what Ruburt said, he thought of himself as working in a highly specialized, misunderstood small field.

[...] Now I can get rid of my symptoms because I’m getting out of the occult field. [...]

[...] He too has agreed to do all advertising for Jane’s books in the regular trade-book field, rather than the occult.)

According to Seth, our own desires, focuses, and intents dictate what inner information we draw from the endless fields available; for he sees all knowledge existing at once, not as dry data or records, but enlivened by the consciousness that perceives it. [...]

The implications of such statements for education are astonishing: Besides teaching rote information, our schools and universities should acquaint us with as many fields as possible; for these act as exterior triggers, bringing forth natural inner knowledge, sparking skills which are waiting for activation by suitable stimuli in the exterior world.

[...] For this manuscript not only presented a fascinating picture of a genius at work, but gave specialized knowledge of a field — art — in which I am at best an amateur. [...]

(Jane began by finding herself as a young girl on a swing at the recreation field across the street from St. Clement’s Catholic Church and School in Saratoga Springs, where she grew up. [...] She knew she was doing those things while at the field, she said.

(Then she was running across a field looking for help. [...] She didn’t know why she was in the field; she went back to the house and saw herself lying on the floor. [...]

[...] That is the field of their interest, intent and ability. [...]

[...] He can quite honestly state that such and such is outside of the area of his concentration, at the far periphery of his “field.” [...]

The term “psychic” is ill-defined, so he must define for himself the field of his activity, specify clearly for both of your sakes where his own strengths lie, and his intents, and what is to be expected of him and what is not. [...]

[...] Out of a vast field of perception you choose to focus your attention upon certain specific areas and ignore all others, and so there is perfect agreement among you as far as this small area is concerned. [...]

[...] Now as you know, you do not perceive the atoms and molecules that swim about the room nor the atoms and molecules that fill this space between our friends, nor the forces—the field forces—that exist. [...]

[...] In extrasensory perceptions, so to speak, as in so-called normal perception, the natural inclinations of the personality dictate the kind of information that will be sought from any available field of data. [...]

[...] I give him access to large fields of focus, I help him change the energy that he uses in perception into other directions, to turn it inward. [...]

[...] Out of a vast field of perception, you choose to focus your attention upon certain specific areas and to ignore all others, and so there is perfect agreement among you as far as this small area is concerned. [...]

Now: As you know, you do not perceive the atoms and molecules that swim about the room, nor those that fill the space between our two friends, nor the forces — the field forces — that exist. [...]
