“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The inner self keeps the physical body alive even as it formed it. The miraculous constant translation of spirit into flesh is carried on with inexhaustible energy by these inner portions of being, but in all cases the inner self looks to the conscious mind for its assessment of the body’s condition and reality, and forms the image in line with the conscious mind’s beliefs.

So — once more — you form reality through your beliefs, and your most intimate production is your physical body. [...] You organize on an unconscious level the atoms and molecules that compose your cells to form your body. [...]

They form the blueprint by which you make your body, whether you have known this or not. Your body is an artistic creation, formed and constantly maintained at unconscious levels, but quite in line with your beliefs about what and who you are.

[...] Such inner sound forms your bone and flesh. [...]

[...] They form, their nature is behind, what is commonly known as air, and they use this to move through. The air in other words (pause) can be said to be formed by the animations of these units.

[...] I was concerned about form in this painting, and this concern, linked up with composition, gave me quite a little tussle in this painting. Form and composition usually are easy for me.

I will try to clear this later, but the air is the result of these units’ existence, formed by the interrelationship of the units in their positions and relative distance one from the other, and in what you could call the relative velocity of their motion. [...]

[...] This forms a gestalt-rock-consciousness.

[...] They will be charged with emotional energy according to the individual’s own experience, but they will form the base from which such a dream at that particular level is formed. [...] It will in this case be seen as the dream’s basic form, but it will be used in the dream drama according to the makeup of the dreamer.

[...] A bullfighting dream might be formed. [...]

[...] Indeed the ego is almost entirely formed by the physical senses method of perception. [...]

As you know, camouflage elements are formed from the vital energy, which itself forms of itself all dimensions and all realities. It exists within all camouflage, since the camouflage itself is merely the form that is adopted. [...]

If this information comes from a personality no longer in physical form upon your earth, then surely this is an indication that death is but entrance into another dimension.

There are other dimensions, some of which you are almost ignorant, in which however you exist, or have some valid effect; where you are projected and where in one way or another you form a reference point.

[...] You are not recognized in your human form. [...]

It is this inner self, out of the massive knowledge and unlimited scope of its consciousness, that forms the physical world, that provides stimuli to keep the ego constantly at the job of awareness. [...]

The energy of this inner self is directed and used by it to richly form from itself, from components and inner experience, a material counterpart in which the outer ego then can act out its role. [...]

[...] The EE units are the forms basic experience takes when directed by this inner self.

These then form physical objects, physical matter. [...]

[...] The sounds weave (gesturing) themselves through, and help form this pattern. [...] Together these all form the prototype upon which, and out of which, the physical body is formed.

[...] There are definite sounds produced when messages leap from your nerve ends.² It is very difficult to explain some of this, but there is “invisible” light, then, and inaudible sound, that affects your body and helps form the pattern about which it constantly emerges.

Now: (Pause.) The nerves are also composed of the same kind of interior structures as mentioned earlier (in this chapter): around, or rather from which, the physical nerves form. [...]

[...] They are energy formed and directed, formulations of interior and exterior patterns of reality. [...]

[...] The energy behind the thing was the energy of hidden fears, but such a thing could be formed by anyone, for there are fears in every man. Ruburt tried to isolate them, give them form, and fight them all at once.

The words: “May peace be with you,” will get him through any difficulty in other layers of reality, for as he formed that image others also form images, and he could encounter them on occasion. [...]

(Jane wanted information from Seth about her struggle last night with what she believed to be a thought form she had created while sleeping. [...]

[...] She was quite sleepy at break, and said Seth was “putting her under” in order to talk about the thought-form and projection experience of last night with the least amount of distortion. [...]

Instead, consciousness formed matter. [...] In those terms, the “beginning” of your universe was a triumph in the expansion of consciousness, as it learned to translate itself into physical form. [...]

The consciousness of each reader of this book existed before the universe was formed—in parentheses: (in your terms)—but that consciousness was unmanifest. Your closest approximation—and it is an approximation only—of the state of being that existed before the universe was formed is the dream state. [...]

[...] Each consciousness that takes a part in the physical universe dreamed of such a physical existence, in your terms, before the earth was formed. In greater terms than yours, it is quite true to say that the universe is not formed yet, or that the universe has vanished. [...]

[...] Either God “made it,” or physical matter, in some unexplained manner, was formed after an initial explosion of energy, and consciousness emerged from that initially dead matter in a way yet to be explained.

The mass, generally speaking, is a denseness formed by the varying intensities. [...] These electromagnetic frameworks could be considered as skeleton forms within physical matter.

All of an individual’s experiences, even those of which he is not aware on a conscious basis, therefore are part of the electromagnetic reality that forms this particular individual’s electromagnetic identity. [...] While the experiences which form this framework and compose this individual’s identity are obtained through his interaction with the physical system, his electromagnetic identity is not dependent upon the physical field.

[...] These electromagnetic changes form their own kind of pattern, which has mass but no weight, or weight so slight as to be indistinguishable.

[...] I have told you that all experience is basically psychological, and that it is held in coded form within the cells. [...]

“In the same way that the body’s proteins and chemicals can be used to form various kinds of images, they may also be utilized to form an ulcer, goiter, or to affect other changes [in the body itself]. [...]

[...] If really large areas of the self are inhibited, a secondary personality can be formed, grouped about those qualities distrusted and denied by the primary ego, and usually opposed to it. In other instances, the inhibited emotions can be projected outward into other persons, or as in the case of the York Beach images, very charged repressed energy can actually form pseudophysical images which present the personality with the physically materialized image of his fears.

[...] Personality fragments differ from others in that they can cause other fragments to form from themselves …”

“The man and woman in the York Beach dancing establishment … were fragments of your selves, thrown-off materializations of your own negative and aggressive feelings … the images were formed by the culminating energy of your destructive energies at the time. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) The human race is a stage through which various forms of consciousness travel. [...] Thoughts and emotions form the basis. [...]

[...] As a child forms mud pies from dirt, so you form your civilization out of thoughts and emotions, and then see what you have created, and you must deal with it on its terms.

You are dealing with the transformation of emotional energy into action and form. [...]

[...] The system also provides practice in the methods of transforming energy into form, and of maintaining intensities, of manipulating energy in various aspects.

[...] These together form the reality that you know. [...]

If there are strongly negative characteristics present in your most intimate thoughts, if these actually form bars between you and a more full life, still you often look through the bars, not seeing them. [...]

[...] They yearn toward new forms and experiences. [...]

Man has been endowed, and has endowed himself, with a conscious mind to direct the nature, shape and form of his creations. [...]

We gave you the pattern by which your physical selves are formed. We gave you the pattern by which you learned to form your physical reality. We gave you the patterns intricate, involved and blessed from which you form the reality of each physical thing you know. [...] We gave you the pattern upon which you formed your entire physical universe and the comprehension that exists within each cell, the knowledge that each cell has, the desire for organization was given by us. [...] We taught you to form the reality that you know. [...]

I use many forms and if you do not like them, I am sorry. [...] And then from this light and spiritual form, I will bellow. [...]

[...] We want you to realize that there is consciousness without form, that there is consciousness with will and vitality that comes to you from beyond even those places that your Seth knows. [...] We gave you mental images and upon these images you learned to form the world that you know. [...]

[...] You form your physical reality through suggestion and expectation. [...]

[...] Your thoughts instantly attain a form that you can then perceive. If you think of a dog for example, quite unconsciously you form the image of a dog, which you do then perceive.

There are more than your thought forms in other words. Your thought forms however can be used as definite aids when you are in the proper mental condition, and they can impede your progress if you are not. [...]

[...] He wanted to see if he could become aware of your form.

It is because of this instantaneous creation and projection of inner reality into form that you experience time within the physical system—to train you literally, to give you time to learn to handle your own creations. [...]

[...] It is the mass creation formed by your inner ideas. [...] You must form ideas into physical materialization in order to recognize the force behind the ideas you are learning to use and understand. [...]

[...] A personality outside of your system does not therefore recall events from so-called previous lives in any serial form. [...]

[...] It is most difficult for you to conceive of an ego who experiences events not in serial form. [...]

[...] This in the 1200’s. The personality has often been in a position to work with building, and in their construction, and was instrumental in working out the principles behind the arc (Jane gestured), arch, form.

[...] In fact, that consciousness of self in any person is dependent upon the constant, miraculous cooperations that exist between the mineral, vegetable, and animal worlds.³ The inner intent always forms any exterior alteration. [...] Consciousness forms the environment. [...] When they form living creatures they become a physical basis for species alteration. [...] They contain within themselves memory of all the “previous” forms they have been a part of.

[...] However, for the reasons given in Note 3 for Session 687, in Volume 1, we’d rather think of the molecular components of cells as participating in the structures of a variety of forms. (And I can note a week later that at the end of Session 707, Seth makes his own comment about cells surviving changes of form.)

[...] Species were thought to change, and “mutants” form, because of a previous alteration in the environment, to which any given species had to adjust or disappear. [...]

[...] You would of course destroy life as you know it, and in your terms bring to an end, if the conditions were right (or wrong), life forms with which you are familiar. [...]

[...] Thoughts formed and sent out within the impulse range of emotion often succeed because of the peculiar nature of emotional electrical impulses themselves. [...] For reasons that we will not discuss, this evening, thoughts formed under a strong emotional impetus will carry greater vividness, have a greater tendency toward duplication, and are apt to be interpreted with some success.

Practically, your own identities exist electronically, as I have explained, in codified form. [...]

Whether or not A, the sender, knowingly transmits this apparent duplicate, at the point of its transmission the sender forms an electrical impulse pattern that is supposed to duplicate the original thought. [...]

[...] These include, to begin with, the original intensity of the thought as A possesses it, A’s ability to duplicate the thought as far as possible, the relative stability of the electrical thought unit as it is formed by A, the familiarity or unfamiliarity of the range of frequencies that compose the new thought to any intended receiver.

[...] See it as a form, then as you work with the pendulum close the eyes and see whether the form or the shape is disappearing. [...]

[...] It would help him if he could imagine it as having a shape or form, or a weight. [...]

[...] The forms you make out of matter are only generally similar. [...]

[...] He will only appear in apparition form. [...]

[...] Vivid hallucinations may form experience quite as real as any in mortal life. Now, I have told you that thoughts and emotions form physical reality, and they form after-death experience. [...]

It is possible for example to lose yourself momentarily in the hallucinations that are being formed, and in such cases another teacher must bail you out. [...] You may, for example, take the form of an individual’s dearly beloved dead pet.

He believed in Moses more than he did Allah, and I did not know until the last moment which form I was to assume. [...]

[...] We came together, forming the image of a s-u-n (spelled out), and we said: “We are one.”

[...] These are like charged emotional patterns, formed of your own highly personal emotions and intents.

[...] In doing so, to some extent you multiply the creative possibilities of the universe, forming from it a personal reality that would otherwise be absent, in those terms; and in so doing you also add in an immeasurable fashion to the reality of all other consciousness by increasing the bank of reality from which all consciousness draws.

[...] There is, then, what can be called a predream state, or a state of experience from which the dream will be formed. [...]

[...] This larger experience, from which your dreams are finally formed, involves you in a kind of journey. [...]
