“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] His mother, incidentally, called him greedy for wanting to use her perfume. [...] It reminds him of his mother’s space heater. [...]

[...] Seth’s entity name for Jane is Ruburt—he, him, his.)

[...] There is a light behind him also and he stands at a partially opened door, and our friend the Jesuit speaks to him. [...]

[...] A native who is dressed in clothes that do not belong to him: he is performing. [...]

[...] Have him imagine himself reading a session, or hearing you exclaim over how well he has read one. Otherwise, have him forget his vision as much as possible, and it will indeed right itself.

[...] Now he reacts you see by bothering you all the more, peeking in on you, to discover whether or not you are really upset, or rather, if his own imagination runs away with him.

[...] You would do much better by being frank with him, for he becomes irritated and resentful when he feel you are upset, and is left to guess at the cause. [...]

[...] I also asked Jane about what use the gorgeous colors of Billy’s luxurious fur are to him if he can’t appreciate those patches and stripes of sienna, black, warm gray, and pure white. Or do his colors serve other purposes for him that we’re unaware of? [...]

[...] The form represented (long pause) the personified, accumulated positive energies that were working to his advantage at that time, that provided him protection, but that also automatically worked to the benefit of his life and projects.

[...] The knower in him knew that, and he acted on the information spontaneously. [...]

[...] Seth has never discussed the subject, nor have we asked him to. [...]

[...] Ruburt’s response is very healthy for him, since it involves the acceptable use of exuberant and aggressive energy, and the sense of power in the physical realm.

[...] His response there was excellent for him, as you said. [...]

[...] The trees will tempt him to walk about, and he knows it well. [...]

It will automatically tempt him to walk about. [...]

[...] At this point of your spiritual progression, you only imagined that you wished him good. [...]

[...] The nicest thing that could happen would be that you suddenly blew your stack and kicked him. [...]

[...] We have to get up and get to work here.’ Would being honest with him at that level have prevented these charges?”)

[...] One, I don’t want to kick him. [...]

In a flash of insight it occurs to him that he also has been painted — that there is another artist behind him from whom his own creativity springs, and he also begins to look out of the frame.

[...] The people in the artist’s painting are not simple representations either — to stare back at him with forever-fixed glassy eyes, or ostentatious smiles (again humorously), dressed in their best Sunday clothes. [...]

[...] I call Jane Roberts “Ruburt” (and, hence, “he” and “him”) simply because the name designates another portion of her reality, while she identifies herself as Jane. [...]

(10:29.) You had better give him some beer and cigarettes, and we will continue.

(Today Jane was quite upset because she still hasn’t received a letter from her publisher, Frederick Fell, even though Mr. Fell reassured her about the ESP book when she telephoned him last Monday, October 5, the day of the 195th session. [...]

I would like to remind Ruburt, again, that I told him that Peggy Gallagher would be of help in our sessions, long before she was a friend.

Five objects in particular, and one of them is a gift, or was a gift to him. [...]

[...] Tomorrow is a special day for him in some manner. [...]

[...] It enables him to direct his energy where he wants it, when he wants it. [...] It is the symbol for a discipline on his part that will enable him to override the vicissitudes of mood, and temporary inclinations.

We got involved finally, with his father, in an effort to get him away from your family. We were trying to lead him to his mother, who is an invalid, to get near the polio connection, but I am afraid we did not succeed here.

[...] I had the feeling that something was trying to make me forget what I saw, so I quickly woke Rob and told him what I had seen. [...]

[...] He made so much noise I had to lay my notes aside to take care of him. [...]

(Strictly speaking, we do not believe Seth as we known him and are used to him, gave the material tonight. [...]

[...] She did have the feeling of the little man, as though she looked at him in a small box, she said. She interpreted this to mean she saw him in the past.

Now, with him the date 1936. [...]

[...] She is to carry a copy of this session to Roger in Boston, with our request for a paragraph-by-paragraph analysis of this material by him, for our records.

[...] The old man also stands for Ruburt’s father, as Ruburt thought of him bumming around, frittering away his time and energy, so he was stealing from the pot. [...] (Pause.) The old man also stood for old man time in the dream, and reinstated the fact that an executor is important, for the old man also stood for —in the dream, now—Ruburt’s father acting as his own executor—meaning that his nature led him to leave ends loose.

[...] The law, Prentice, health, the poor and nationalized medicine, our ideals—and start doing it from any point you wanted him to.”

[...] Seth’s reference to the poor and nationalized health care referred to material Jane had picked up from him during the day; The poor were actually better off as they are now, without such a national health-care plan, for as it is they’re isolated from and immune to a number of ills they would start falling prey to if they could afford to pay for such treatment—that is, if the costs were paid for them. [...]

[...] It is natural for him to be inspired. [...]

[...] To some extent he became divorced from some of his own feelings, for they seemed now beneath him. [...]

It seemed that this would be thrust upon him, however—that it was expected, and that indeed furthermore he should expect such performance from himself. [...]

[...] To go on public television, join the workshops and so forth would not be Ruburt’s way, even while he felt that such a course was expected of him. [...]

Ruburt became frightened, for example, of out-of-body travel when he began to get it in his head that “all the nuts” were doing it too, and that out-of-body activity involved him in an inner public environment, in which he might meet “all those fools” who were then not bound by physical restraints. [...] He felt people “could get at him” that way.

[...] 2. This insight led Jane to an obvious one neither of us had ever made before: that when she gets a letter in which the writer threatens suicide if Jane doesn’t help him or her, this is like Marie threatening the young Jane that she will commit suicide.)

The secrecy of childhood is connected because of Welfare, and your own statements to him often, years ago, not to tell people anything. [...]

When they began your attitude did not encourage him to express them.

He feels that you have not tried to make a success of your art, but have used excuses while blaming him for using excuses; that he tries desperately to sell his books, while you will not lift a finger to sell your paintings; that if he waited until he did his best work, he would never have sold a thing.

On the same level: With Ruburt’s background he felt no man would support him, yet wanted to be supported. [...]

Were you not selling your paintings to spite him or yourself or your mother? [...]

[...] John brought a tape with him, as he had promised. Upon it he had summarized the data Seth had given him about his professional life over a period of several years, and the ways in which it had, or had not, worked out. [...]

[...] I have to get him (pointing to me) when I can get him, if I want to get my book done.

Each of the twelve represented qualities of personality that belong to one individual, and Christ as you know him represented the inner self. The twelve, therefore, plus Christ as you know him (the one figure composed of the three) represented an individual earthly personality — the inner self — and twelve main characteristics connected with the egotistical self. [...]

[...] “Something like Christ being a central pole, with twelve balls revolving around him but radiating outward at the same time,” she said. [...]

God can only be experienced, and you experience him whether or not you realize it, through your own existence. [...]

(Just before break ended Jane said: “Seth was gone during break, but he just came back; I can feel him. I felt him return. [...]

[...] It is available to him when he wishes the information—and he has, or is, or will (smile), take advantage of it, you see.

[...] I can also help Ruburt more as he believes in my ability to do so, though again I have helped him in the past.

[...] There is a light behind him also and he stands at a partially opened door, and our friend the Jesuit speaks to him. [...]

[...] A native who is dressed in clothes that do not belong to him: he is performing. [...]

When an idea for a book or a poem comes to him, he “tunes into it” immediately. It never occurs to him to wonder how many vowels or syllables, words and sentences, paragraphs or pages might be involved. [...]

(4:11.) That is the natural, creative way to function, and it has provided him with many excellent books and poetry. [...]
