“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] He came here a few evenings ago (Monday, February 5), and then attended Ruburt’s class the next night. [...]

[...] He said that he was glad that he was forced to see the thing through, yet grave doubts brought him here, and will finally lead him into other areas away from such therapy.

Now: We want to publish the book—and I will here continue, for our purposes, dealing with a book’s production rather than a painting’s. Still, however, we will keep the idea of a painting for a different reason. [...]

[...] All group interactions of course are involved here. [...]

[...] We didn’t insist that Seth discuss this material this evening, instead merely saying we had much to learn here.

[...] Here we come close to the meaning of value fulfillment and moment points.

(9:53.) Again, in our material on suffering (see the 895th session, for instance), I mentioned that illness serves purposes—that it has a face-saving quality in your society—so here I am speaking of the body’s own abilities. [...]

Your dream³ fits in here in its own fashion, for you see that the ship of life, so to speak, rides very swiftly and beautifully also beneath the conscious surface, traveling through the waters of the psyche…. [...]

(I won’t try to repeat it all here by any means, though at the time I’d thought I had some good things to say. [...]

[...] But certainly more than coincidence is involved here. [...]

[...] Even here, however, large portions of self-awareness continue to operate in the between-life dimension.

[...] Here we become concerned again with the animus and the anima. [...]

[...] Here you begin to draw into regions of consciousness in which symbols become less and less necessary, and it is a largely unpopulated area indeed. [...]

[...] (By direct knowing here, I mean instant cognition and comprehension, without symbolization.)

[...] Strictly speaking, it isn’t dictation for Mass Events, but Jane and I are presenting portions of it here because Seth discussed events and memory with a different emphasis, and touched upon aspects of reincarnation² — all subjects that spring out of that ineffable, really undefinable quality he calls simultaneous time. [...]

We parked here today
and the green world swirled
jungle-quick, downtown
across the river, and like
a city bushman I was in tune,
swinging through thought’s treetops
while the traffic stopped and started,
precise as a ceremony of animals,
almost formal, engines thundering
then purring, wheels pausing,
headlights hypnotized in sun.
You walked into the bank,
making an exchange as ancient
as any tribal dance.

[...] And may I congratulate you Ruburt, for keeping your God-almighty intellect out; and I will have more to say here to Philip about the intellect.

There are many ramifications here. [...]

[...] You have abilities here not being used, and this could lead to an added lifetime interest of some intensity.

[...] “And he’s got even more, but it’s getting late and the supper tray will be here and you have to turn me and stuff …” I could tell she was able to continue. [...]

[...] The coastline is not straight here. [...]

[...] Here you are searching for the implied source, the unspoken, invisible “pause,” the inner organization that gives language or the self a vehicle of expression. [...]

[...] “You’d better get out of here,” Jane said, meaning that the longer I stayed, the longer she’d keep up her motions. [...]

There may be physical circumstances involving birth defects that are beyond alteration, where experience must be focused along other than usual pathways, yet even here those talents and characteristics that are available will open up vistas of experience and achievement.

[...] It’s enough to say here that it wasn’t until after these sessions began, in 1963, that I realized my inner models were quite as valid as those who physically sat before me. [...]

[...] Jane’s hesitancy here reminds me of her hesitancy in the beginning sessions, when it early became apparent that she was receiving the answers to questions mentally, even though we were using the Ouija board. [...]

In all respects there must be complete honesty here, and conditions should be reached where there is no fear of ridicule on Ruburt’s part, or fear of lack of successful data, or failure.

I am speaking overall—making no divisions here between Ruburt’s books and mine.

[...] Here she has the symptoms as a kind of protection, so I’m wondering about our reactions if we took steps that would put us more in the public eye—left us open to more criticism—as well as praise—for instance. [...]

(Here is my dream of October 9, that I asked Seth interpret: “Color. [...]

[...] Since Seth’s own interpretation agrees with Jane’s— though more detailed—it isn’t necessary to give Jane’s version here, beyond saying the dream concerned my own artwork and related affairs.)

[...] There had been a number of developments in the past few days, and the session that follows outlines some of those as they apply to Jane’s condition, so there’s little need to repeat them here.

[...] Otherwise, my position is this —and here I repeat—because overall changes in position and balance are necessitated in order for normal walking to occur, one portion of the body at this point is not going to right itself so that, for example, Ruburt’s arms are suddenly straight while his knees are bent. [...]

“He is not human in your terms, though he passed through human stages; and here the Buddhist myth comes closest to approximating reality. [...]

[...] Most of your God concepts deal with a static God, and here is one of your main theological difficulties. [...]

[...] Here Seth stared at Carl and said, “If your generation or any generation effects a change, this is the only way it will be done. [...]

My out-of-body experiences are not nearly as well directed, deliberate or effective as Seth’s behavior is here, for example. [...]

Here I will stress subjective experience itself as it is turned toward the dreaming state in particular, and deal with Seth’s conceptions of the dream universe through excerpts from his continuing manuscript. [...]

There is, of course, an apparent contradiction here, but it is only apparent, your dilemma being this: If you have another self-conscious self, then why aren’t you aware of it? [...]
