“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This idea reminded me of one I’ve mentioned rather often to Jane lately about watching the news on TV—a recent habit that it seems we’ll soon dispense with. But I found it at least roughly reminiscent of Seth’s idea of simultaneous time to watch the color broadcasts from different areas of the world each day, and then to mentally hold all of those actions, especially the backgrounds, in mind at once, visualizing them as simultaneous happenings at different places on the planet.

[...] No great idea would spread from civilization to civilization; no war would leap from land to land. [...]

[...] When using the pendulum, it is a good idea to mentally place a distance between your conscious mind and the pendulum, in which fears are allowed to dissolve, so that body and mind are smooth-enough. [...]

[...] The ideas that I am advocating find challenge on side, and you try to implement them—again—amid a tumultuous ocean of counter-beliefs.

[...] It concerns the ideas that concepts, as well as our senses, act as programmers of reality. [...]

[...] Some of it drew a comparison between the paranoid individual, and an organization that contained the same ideas. [...]

[...] For the most part Jane and I regarded the article as a distorted jumble of various negative ideas.

[...] I thought the idea fascinating, and commented on the unexpected opening up of a new field of inquiry that ought to be most rewarding to follow—if we had the time. [...]

Your mental world is full of ideas and feelings that surge toward actualization. [...]

It may be said by some that any book at all is an ambitious endeavor, when it originates from a psychological source (underlined) so far divorced from your ordinary ideas of creativity. [...]

[...] Although the manuscript does not yet exist in a physical book, the book itself, the ideas and words, are in the most important fashions quite real now. [...]

[...] The authors strongly disagree with ideas of evolution. [...]

2. I’m presenting the private portion of tonight’s session for two reasons: Seth comments a bit upon the creative production of the sessions, and he shows how we can habitually impose upon our physical selves our conscious ideas of what we “should be doing”—not paying enough attention to our impulsive, natural, bodily messages.

[...] They are not theoretical ideas. [...]

[...] You are not free when you say: “The idea works for everyone but me—but my symptoms are caused by something else—and when I am violent, different rules apply. [...]

(Brad) You have no idea of the discovery that is possible for you. [...]

[...] Theses ideas must go through you and outward to others. [...]

Some of this has to do with current mass beliefs, based on the idea of the mechanics of the body being more important than the thoughts behind the body’s working. [...]

According to the ideas of course this can be highly advantageous, unfortunate, or fall any place between. [...]

[...] That is not a particularly important point, but given here simply to give you an idea of other issues that operate, having to do with a personality’s natural leanings toward certain seasonal conditions.

[...] Ruburt’s vitality, then, despite the conditions, would also serve to remind you of the indomitable vitality of the race, and your part in trying to set forth ideas and directions that would be of benefit.

[...] Relax in the way that is natural to you and forget all ideas of tension and, for now, forget all ideas of trying to ferret out the secrets of the universe. [...]

(To Bette Z.) And you cannot get up on your high horse over the idea of love and sharing either. [...]

[...] Now, as Ruburt told you, the Alpha I state is an adjacent state of consciousness, and when he has talked about it he has spoken about going below into other deeper layers, and also in his mind, he also has the idea of going above into other layers. [...]

[...] Although we had a few shorter sessions on different matters during the holiday season, this is the first material Seth has given on his book since December 18 — and as he resumed dictation on Chapter Seven so easily, we were reminded that he’s impervious to our ideas of time.

[...] For best results, you must remember that ideas are as alive as the cells within your hand.

[...] This was a very interesting idea, aside from being a comforting one. [...]

[...] Seth’s ideas of cellular memory, however, add many new dimensions….

[...] Any idea of a title, or do you want to wait on that?”)

(“The minute before I said I was going to have a session, that idea came into my mind,” Jane said. [...]

[...] He was in a fashion frightened of the ideas of masculinity he grew up with—ideas he felt he did not embody, and he projected those upon his sons so that in a fashion they overawed him, or put him to shame. [...]

[...] I admit that some of this material quite contradicts your usual ideas, but the health of your body is intimately related not only to the state of world health, but to the physical climate as well.

[...] Jane had “no idea that he was going into that weather stuff.” [...]

The understanding of your own rightness opens up from Framework 2 all kinds of creative opportunities that have been closed to you because your own set ideas have to some extent limited you. These ideas are extremely important. [...]

[...] The image idea here will be an added reinforcement and help. [...]

[...] The idea being to reproduce those daily activities and thoughts that naturally reinforce his strengths. [...]

[...] The idea behind the psycho-cybernetics exercises is that in the future such thinking will become automatic.

[...] Religious ideas of course held their own sway then as they do now. [...]

Your ideas of the history of your species, then, are largely distorted versions of the latest chapter, in those terms.

[...] Mass production was inconceivable, because the originality of each piece of art, or furniture, or bowl, held its value in that manner, and the idea of producing a copy of anything would have been considered ludicrous, or considered an act without reason.

[...] On the other, he must not let ideas about time and the body impede him. [...] Such is the case generally speaking, and yet the agility of the beliefs can completely triumph over such ideas.

[...] It is meaningless to say that the books are Ruburt’s. Your ideas of “perfection” and love of detail, or if your prefer, your feeling for the significance of detail that appears exteriorized in your notes, is as present in the inner consistency of the material itself as given by me.

[...] Any ideas along these lines that you think of will be of benefit, even if only having him once or twice a day walk as well as he can up and down the hall.

[...] She said she enjoyed talking about the ideas a great deal. [...]

The idea of a ride will get him down the steps, while worrying about how he will get down the steps does not help. [...]

Some of the very attitudes considered good by the spontaneous self were diametrically opposed to the ideas of good held by the overly conscientious self. [...]

The overly conscientious self is afraid of emotion and display, and hence quite terrified of any ideas of communicating with survival personalities. [...]

The poverty angle reaches in here for you both, but I intend to give you my own ideas and suggestions in the very near future. [...]

[...] Among other things, the poem is a passionate declaration of psychic independence, written in response to Seth’s ideas in this book.)

There simply must be, for example, a freedom to express ideas, an individual tendency, a worldwide social and political context in which each individual can develop his or her abilities and contribute to the species as a whole. Such a climate depends, however, upon many ideas not universally accepted — and yet the species is so formed that the biological importance of ideas cannot be stressed too strongly.

[...] You can express almost any idea that you want in vocal terms, even if you have hardly any conception at all of the way in which your own speech is executed.

The beliefs people acquire when young can be changed, of course, and according to Seth (and the ideas Jane and I have also) this process of change would be the best “inoculation” there is against senility. [...]

(Today Jane got the idea for her next book, following the dream book, just completed. She is very enthusiastic about the idea, and regards it as a breakthrough re her habits and thinking. It should be noted here that the dream book was rejected last week by the first publisher to see it, Doubleday; but oddly enough Jane feels the idea was at least partly sparked, for the new book, by this rejection.)

It has to do with Ruburt’s book idea, and I hope to give you hints that you can follow.

The intellect therefore dealt with ideas it did not accept, and you can find this in those statements that he has made. [...]
