“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] For you have been, on the one hand, terrified of them, and on the other hand wanted a normal relationship. Give me a moment here —on the one hand you desire more from a relationship with a man than you have any right to expect. [...] On the other hand, you felt that he did contain wisdom, truth, almost godlike qualities. [...]

[...] On the one hand, you want him, on the other hand, as you had to escape from your father, you must also escape from the man and so you are caught in a dilemma. [...] On the other hand, you must feel that you have independence from him. [...]

[...] Sometimes he’d hold our hands; or if we were in the supply room, shut the door so that we’d be alone and then hold my hand and tease me. [...]

[...] On the one hand he resents the image that you have placed upon him, and on the other hand it serves his vanity to accept it. [...]

(This cancellation raised many questions, since Seth had said nothing about any such event; on the other hand, his forecasts had all been prefaced by the word “if,” or similar ones. [...]

[...] I wrote it down as usual; then, walking over to me, grinning but also intent, she took the pen from my hand; she herself wrote the word down at the top of the page, in letters 3/4 of an inch high, and underlined it heavily for emphasis in no uncertain terms.)

[...] On the one hand you fear making too much money, while consciously you fear not making enough, for the energy expanded; and I do mean expanded, rather than extended.

(Again Jane took the pen from my hand and underlined the word “all” in the above sentence. [...]

[...] I had planned to hand Jane the test envelope at about 10:00. Her eyes had been open up to this point, but she now closed them and sat waiting quietly while I handed the envelope to Bill; he passed it to Jane. She held it lightly in both hands, her eyes still closed.)

I watch Joseph’s hand. I will be glad to give suggestions when you remind me, so that your hand will not tire, and so that I do not tire our friends.

[...] She used few pauses, and sat much of the time learning forward with her hands clasped before her and her head tilted down slightly. [...]

[...] As when giving experimental material, she sat with her head down, a hand raised to her closed eyes.)

[...] On the other hand the woman image that she understands, because of her mother, is a dominating woman image. [...]

[...] She sat with her head down, her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

(Once again Jane bowed her head and raised her hand to her closed eyes.)

[...] The structure of probabilities provides on the one hand a system of barriers, in which practical growth is not chosen or significant; and on the other hand it insures a safe, creative, rich environment — a reality — in which the idealization can choose from an almost infinite variety of possible actions those best suited to its own fulfillment.

[...] Because you do not really fully accept the fact that you can so react, you may block this unofficial information on the one hand, even while on the other you take it into consideration. [...]

[...] You also have your hand in the larger creativity of mankind’s experience.

The intuitions must go hand in hand with the intellect. [...]

[...] Dream therapy could offer great advantages, but here again it could be dangerous in the hands of unscrupulous or rigid personalities.

[...] Dream therapy would actually involve no more than lending a helping hand to a phenomena that already occurs.

[...] Then she discovered that she can now touch the pillow behind her left ear with her left hand—something she couldn’t do even a day or so ago. I remembered when she’d considered it a triumph to be able to barely reach her left ear with her left hand. [...]

[...] I put my hands on her left ankle and could feel the action of the bones and muscles and tendons therein as she rotated it, up in the air, with a good amount of freedom.

[...] A point here involving Ruburt’s hands and his mother’s sweaters: he knew that knitting was a therapeutic measure suggested in the past to exercise his mother’s hands. When he became sensitized to the sweaters, then he had difficulty with his own hands, you see.

[...] The importance of some of these was that Ruburt would feel simply that you were taking an active intimate interest, and lending a positive (underlined) hand.

[...] On the other hand he almost would have settled for the words. [...]

[...] On one hand then, he did not want you to have to contend with them, particularly if he could take the tension. [...]

[...] She was able to grasp the edge of the paper with her left hand, though—something she hasn’t been able to do before. [...] The strength in her hands has been increasing. [...]

(Jane now placed her right hand over her heart, and repeated herself several times, eyes closed.)

([Bill:] “What about the cigarette?” Bill saw a cigarette in Seth’s hand.)

[...] On the one hand the accident was an accident. On the other hand you had an individual aggressively attuned that day with withheld violence, who was going to kill one animal or another. On the other hand you had an animal who went searching for friends, knowing quite well that in one way of speaking the friendship was over.

[...] You allowed negative patterns of thought to take an upper hand, and fears to predominate. [...]

[...] Do this almost as a game, not with a heavy hand.

[...] Do you have some questions—on the matters at hand?

(I had good duration with feeling of enlargement in the backs of both hands. [...]

[...] At the same time, my arms and hands, remaining where they were, then felt elevated. [...]

(December 13, Sunday, 8 PM: Few little hand sensations, etc.

[...] I also felt that the idea of authority was somehow connected with my shaky right hand, and since this aspect of the dream wasn’t discussed today, I’d like Seth to comment on it tomorrow if he has a session. I seem to remember from old pendulum sessions, that my mother is involved with the shaky hand, although she wasn’t in this dream. [...]

[...] In the dream I was drawing foot-high oval letters in black ink, but was worried about doing a good job because my hand was shaky. [...]

[...] “More work is being done on that right elbow,” Jane said, and again began moving her right hand down past her thigh on the outside, even farther than she’d done at 3:49. [...] Jane rotated her hands, as she used to do, though not to any great degree. [...]

[...] In fact, she could swing the right hand down so that it touched her thigh, then moved outside of it. [...]

[...] I was only floundering around trying to find ways of relieving the symptoms, even if this meant suspending ESP classes, or the sessions, or whatever, while we tackled the problems at hand.

[...] He was also using his writing ability, or putting his writing ability at the hand of the material. [...]

[...] Take a poor day, a dark day for example, a poor habitual reaction, a handful of negative suggestions, and some symptoms, and it does not add up to much.

[...] On the other hand, he is placing himself in a position of trusting the inner self, not from a state of agility and confidence, but one in which he must remind himself that despite, say, soreness, definite feelings of life and mobility appear. [...]

(12:02.) Rest your hand and give us a moment....

Those things, those realities which were most intimately connected with himself, those realities which he could not objectify and hold in his hands, he feared. [...] You cannot hold a psychological experience in your hand as you can a rock, though its weight may be indeed heavier than a rock. [...]

[...] He has always attempted to objectify, to separate whatever realities he could from himself, to hold them in his hands, so to speak, so that he could observe and study them.

—and alternates between an over-reliance on discipline on the one hand and intuition on the other, not yet able to weld the two so that they become two edges of one reliable tool. [...]

[...] Hand moved of own accord.

(At once Jane sat at our living room table, which is her work table, and put her right hand on the message side of the card. [...]

(We estimate Parker had the book script in hand on Monday, June 23. [...]

[...] It goes without saying that without death and disease — for the two go hand in hand — then normal corporeal existence would be impossible.

The subject matter of suffering is certainly vitally connected to the subject at hand, but basically speaking, disease and suffering are not necessarily connected. [...]
