“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] As the muscles continue to relax, the arms and shoulders will also free themselves. [...] I bid you a fond good evening; and feel free with your pictures or whatever else you have for me.

Seven came precisely because it was free of all contract connotations, and so at the time did Aspects. My books so far were hidden creative goodies, inserted instead of books either contracted or to be contracted, and they were free of the work context.

[...] He felt suddenly comparatively free.

Sometimes after a full writing day, without too much actual creative production, he would do his best work in his free time after supper, when he did not have to work. [...]

[...] His three-hour production today gave him more with a free attitude than five or six hours of determined application to “work.”

MEN, MOLECULES, POWER, AND FREE WILL

[...] She also picked up from him the heading of Chapter 8 for Mass Events: “Men, Molecules, Power, and Free Will.” [...]

(After supper tonight, however, Jane chose not to have the session because she felt so free and relaxed. [...]

[...] Ruburt received it correctly the other (last) evening: “Men, Molecules, Power, and Free Will.”

(“You’d be free to do anything you want to,” I said. “The idea is you’d be free to do as you please. [...]

(“I’d sacrifice every cent we’ve got if it would get us that,” I said, “because then we’d both be free. [...] “The funny thing is, if we were that free yet committed, we wouldn’t have to worry about money because we’d automatically do the right things that would get us more whenever we needed it, just by doing the things we love to do....”

[...] A potential that belongs to all of art, whatever its nature, since it is daring enough, free enough to fly ahead of man’s needs at any given time, and to create a new atmosphere that transforms the nature of being itself. [...]

[...] If you can get rid of that you might be home free. [...]

[...] I’m having more and more trouble getting free time to concentrate upon getting Dreams done.

[...] He may even refer to those feelings of distrust as a dear frightened part of himself, and then, again, address that part of the self sympathetically — telling it why it need no longer be frightened, and vocally and emotionally stressing the fact that the frightened portion of the self no longer needs defenses, but can now allow itself free and natural expression.

[...] That was prime time for us to try free association, yet Jane had to have the glasses.

I will interrupt whenever I can be of benefit — and I will also provide sometimes short but pithy session material (with humor) that can be used sometimes as subject matter for free association. You can begin of course by free associating with any appropriate subject — his mother, his father, your relationship, your individual or joint sexual feelings, his ideas about his psychic material, his writing, or whatever — and I will also provide guidelines.

I suggest you start with a kind of free association on Ruburt’s part. [...]

[...] The free association approach Seth suggests will be something different for us to try. [...]

[...] They were very important, for they’d leave the body free to heal itself. [...] The body finally became so desperate to free itself of that rigid Sinful-Self superhuman image that it took itself into the hospital for a month—even if it did almost die in order to get itself in there. [...]

(After last Monday’s session, Jane told me that she’d try to hold private sessions when she could, but that at this time she’d rather be free of any expected routine, say of Monday and Wednesday nights. [...]

(We were very encouraged by two points especially that Seth had mentioned this evening: that Jane’s thyroid had repaired itself before—which event now could free her from dependence upon medication—and that the Sinful Self’s superhuman image had “cracked and crumbled in the hospital experience.” [...]

[...] He will be free, you see, to work in fiction, and will do so in the future, because fiction will be something different than it was.

[...] You would not have felt free enough to do it in the past, for you did not realize what it represented, or rather, you did not see the implications.

He is quite free to question the basis of the sessions, and to question my own source. [...]

[...] Now the intellect is free from the only tie-up it would encounter, for again, it has always accepted the legitimacy of revelationary data.

(At least when I’ve been there in 330, Jane’s appetite has gone downhill, and she’s slacked off on free-association material and the sessions. [...]

[...] That idea of safety and reassurance counters the fear, and opens the passageways again for free association.

[...] I hold a small heavy object suspended by a thread so that it’s free to move. [...]

[...] I ended up asking Jane if she wanted to try free association after we’d talked a while, but got no definite answer.

(I asked Jane if she thought the sessions served as a balance to those sinful-self, very restrictive ideas — that when she gave up on the sessions that other self was free to exert its power and beliefs. [...]

[...] Before I could try anything like free association, however, Jane said she had more to give.

[...] Now, you have been given the free will because the spirit of Christ is within you, this does not mean that you do not have free will. [...] You have free will, you can choose to ignore the blueprints. [...]

[...] You did this through using your own free will, your egos have become overdeveloped, overly specialized. [...]

[...] And what about the philosophical questions involving free will in all of this? [...] (I ask the question aside from the old, still-extant arguments within philosophy, psychology, and religion over whether free will has ever existed—or does—in any context. [...]

[...] All of this is also intimately connected with those areas in which free will can be utilized, freely, to turn probable events into physically perceived ones.

For that matter, one can ask the same questions about our supposed reincarnational heritage: Just how much free will does that concept leave us? [...]

[...] This is some of the free-association material we discussed on May 1.

[...] This was all part of our free-association material today, May 2. She vehemently expressed her feelings, with tears, that if she wanted privacy, being in the hospital wasn’t the way to get it. [...]

The free association is indeed then operating as it should, and that expression will clear the mental and emotional roads, so that Ruburt’s natural, innate high spirits can begin to show their faces again. [...]

[...] And until you learn that truth, you will not be free. You cannot kill another man, you cannot kill another woman and be free. [...] Not without thanking the cow for the food and the nourishment which it has given you, not without realizing that the cow, like yourself, is a part of the chain of life without which physically you would not exist and be free. [...]

[...] When you learn to honor yourselves, you will be free. And you will create with joy and spontaneity when you recognize that within the leaf of a flower the consciousness that is within it, and relate it to yourself, and honor it and treat it as a little brother, you will be free. [...]

When you look within yourselves and dare to face your responsibilities and your potentialities, you will be free. But you will be free! [...]

Now, when it seems to you that you are powerless, it is because you are denying the authority that lies within yourself, closing our mind to the answers that are as free as air. [...]

[...] As far as we know, the set-to is cleared up now, Jane is free, etc. [...]

(9:40.) You have built up the idea of free time being wrong, sinful, no matter what you tell yourself about wanting more of it. [...]

If you are with friends, either of you, and someone, for example Bill Gallagher, says that he envies you for being able to work at home and be free, neither of you ever say “It’s terrific—just what we wanted,” or some such.

Instead you immediately say something like “It would be great to work just so many hours a day and come home and be free.” [...]

[...] You also have to be free enough, and will be, to stand on your own position, and you must be free enough to cast aside the shackles that invisibly surround the field of painting, and even your own interpretation of it.

[...] He would also be driven to critically analyze the phenomena (hyphen)—and in books, because he is a writer—before he felt free enough to simply create (period).

[...] He is to feel free of those demands. [...]

[...] You both need that contact, but free you see of the demands he has felt from, say, correspondence. [...]

[...] He came back under his own free will to teach you. [...]

[...] This time he is truly free for he feels you understand. [...]

[...] Now he is free to work joyfully on Aspects, without the old “poisoned drive”—that is, he will be working because he wants to, and not because he feels his existence is dependent upon it.

[...] Now he is free to concentrate on Aspects, and with a joyful goal also in physical terms at the end. [...]

[...] It would be impossible to be consciously aware of all of the infinitesimal details that exist in even one life; your consciousness would be so full and cluttered up that you would be unable to make choices, or to use free will.

I want to stress that within each life full free will operates once the conditions of that life are set.

That is, if you have been born in poor or depressed circumstances, then free will will not alter the conditions of that birth.

[...] Again, you have free will in the conditions of your life, given the characteristics that are your own. [...]

Your thoughts, feelings, desires and intents, your reincarnational knowledge¹ as well, modify that structure, bring certain latent characteristics into actualization, minimize others, as through the experience of your life you use your free will and constantly make new decisions.

[...] We estimated that at the proper time I’d just quit painting for the morning and was washing my brushes at the bathroom sink—a routine task I perform each day, and one that could leave a portion of my psyche free to engage in other adventures. [...]
