[...] And that is that there is also a quite valid inner sense of guilt here, in that he has neglected his poetry.

[...] They will prevent too much inner involvement, open new doors, bring psychic refreshment, and also provide our hungry friend with his diet of new ideas. [...]

[...] He so feared that he lacked discipline that he becomes too stern a keeper of his own inner fires.

The dream world is indeed a natural by-product of the relationship of the inner self and the physical being. [...]

[...] When you immerse yourselves completely in physical reality, then you have no time for the inner voice. [...]

[...] Now, there is a way—when you are involved in physical activity, and even intense mental work—to change the inner focus so that you are aware of two realities at once and can manipulate quite easily in the physical reality as you must. [...]

[...] And our friend Ruburt is quite correct, you (WL) learn the nature of the inner self first....and then we shall help you in the development of your own abilities. [...]

[...] You will not let the inner self speak clearly enough to you... [...]

The book became a sore point, and the focus in his work of the inner problem, a symbol. [...] There was an inner refusal to make concessions. [...]

[...] The last on time is connected, incidentally, with what we have been speaking of, for it can lead to an insistence upon outer realities, and result in a lack of inner intuitional development, which alone is the fountainhead of true art.

[...] Being an artist and being successful were opposites for your inner self. [...]

[...] In desperation you both began to question inner attitudes, and you then broke the ice with a pendulum session. [...]

We have so much to learn about our inner and outer worlds that once an attempt is made to discuss those large issues, a host of questions arise. [...] Jane and I, for instance, have never particularly cared for the term “ESP,” or extrasensory perception (my emphasis), since to us it implies misleading conceptions about certain inner abilities. [...]

Seth told us ahead of time, of course, that “Unknown” Reality would follow an intuitive and inner organization rather than a linear one, and that this writing method would itself arouse the creative, revelatory characteristics of the psyche. [...]

After making those points, however, I note with some amusement that I find it difficult indeed to believe that many millions of people must wait for a handful of their “superior” peers — philosophers, scientists, psychologists, parapsychologists — to tell them it’s all right to believe in at least a few of the inner abilities that each of us possesses, to whatever degree. [...]

[...] We project our inner knowledge “outward” in distorted fashion; thus on a global scale we thrash about with our problems of war, overpopulation, and dwindling natural resources, to name but a few.

[...] It automatically provides the inner focus and concentration necessary. [...]

[...] Ruburt is at the tail end of these inner problems that have been there in this life since childhood.

[...] On Ruburt’s part the early religious experiences also initiated the deep quest for inner knowledge that is behind all creative endeavor, and that served as an impetus.

The particular problems were set by the inner self as challenges and learning guides. [...]

[...] The inner self is aware, but the conscious self is not aware. [...]

[...] But if the windows were sealed and closed, you would not know the difference, and so until you learn to look out of the windows to the inner selves, then you will not realize what your own environment consists of. [...]

[...] The inner self in many instances will go ahead and wait. [...]

[...] There is, however, a pooling of inner knowledge that is highly helpful to all of you. [...]

[...] You also relate to class members, and that relationship accelerates your inner experience. That inner relationship triggered your reincarnational experiences, for you meet in class with others at other levels, where on a more ordinary level there may be a seemingly opaque relationship.

[...] There is an inner logic involved in Ruburt’s recovery—and now there is no doubt of it.

1. “You can colonize an entire inner level of reality,” Seth told that October 1st class. [...] It will have a greater reality than any physical city that you know, and it can, in its own way, shine with brighter lights in inner reality than any nighttime city displays. [...]

[...] There will also be certain beloved traps set about the city, that will be of an enlightening nature … Now listen: You think there is nothing intrinsically impossible about building a platform in [your] space … I am suggesting, then, a platform in inner reality. [...]

Suggestion is no more and no less than an inner willingness and consent, to allow a particular action to occur; and this consent is the trigger which sets off the subconscious mechanisms that allow you to construct inner data into physical reality.

Your emotional feelings are, as you know, the inner senses as they appear close to the physical plane. [...] You form in your own personal perspective the data that exists within the inner self, but you do this on an individual basis in line with your own expectations, suggestions and attitudes.

[...] No material object of any kind is formed without the cooperation and without the inner consent of the atoms and molecules that compose it. [...]

[...] It is through the inner senses that he perceives me, and this data he then attempts to transform into information that can be perceived by the outer senses.

[...] Each of you may put the following in your own terms, but often it may seem as if your conscience tells you that you have “fallen out of grace,” and that some inner, mysterious, joyous sense of support no longer sustains you. [...]

[...] It will not solve inner problems. [...]

[...] If the proper inner attitude is maintained, such massage can be of good value. [...]

(To Derek.) You will find your own ways, but trust your own inner voice. If you do not trust what Ruburt would call the establishment, then trust the inner voice that is yourself and follow it. [...]

[...] You need to compensate by direct and aggressive physical action, either in a job that will relate you with others or in some aspect along those lines that will allow you to untangle the inner self and release your creative abilities. [...]

[...] This will automatically release your inner abilities. [...]

[...] Your soul, your inner self, your reality, is experience. [...]

[...] He did not give much, but he gave, and he gave because any religion must pay tribute to the inner knowledge of the self and the true inner knowledge does not come in through the front door. [...]

[...] Now that is also an important element of the dream, you were not content, you see, to stay within the environment and you did feel an inner terror to be so imprisoned. [...]

[...] It was an advantage that you remembered the dream consciously for this inner sense implies a strong advancement on your part. [...]

[...] In your case you used religious terms in which to couch it and ease the inner self. [...]

[...] The inner self is, therefore, that inner portion of action which forms the egos, and the selves, through the dilemmas of which I have spoken.

(For material on the three creative dilemmas of inner vitality, see the 138th session.)

[...] You have information on the inner ego. [...]

[...] For material on the inner ego, the self-conscious self behind the self-conscious self, see the 28th session.

He is not entirely aware of this as yet, for remember when physical improvements show themselves the inner, causal, change has already occurred.

[...] You fear that direct psychic experience in terms of projections could rob you of the energy you should put into your painting and quite unconsciously, though not entirely, when you are focusing upon your painting strongly with particular inner vigor, then you close the door to personal psychic adventures out of a misplaced jealousy for your art.

[...] You have been much freer in opening of channels, and passively receiving and becoming receptive to inner information and experience.

[...] He also knows that the book will be published, and this inner information has been given to him in one way or another time and time again.

The physical body runs itself spontaneously, and yet with an inner automatic discipline and order that is indeed almost impossible for you to understand.

[...] More than this, the body automatically, spontaneously responds to emotion, and yet in that spontaneous activity what inner discipline reigns.

The inner order of the body is hidden within its great spontaneous abilities. [...]

[...] The painting is providing a mental rest, aiding in the coordination of hand and eye, and allowing him to work at certain inner challenges in a different way. [...]

“Because dreams are such a perfect combination of stimuli from the inner environment and the exterior environment, other events are often used to trigger inner dream messages, just as the opposite occurs. [...]

[...] They act as symbols of inner reality, so it’s only natural that whether he’s aware of it or not, man perceives objects in such a fashion that they also stand for symbols that first originate in his dreams.

[...] Even while it was, it also got the message across, though the inner drama itself was not recalled; and as the dream merged with historical events, and as it was interpreted by so many, its message also became distorted — or rather, it mixed and merged with other such dreams, whose messages were far different.

[...] Even then, you might not recall the dream, but the situation itself as it comes to your attention might make you check your tires, decide to put off your trip, or instead lead you to inner speculations about whether you are going too fast in a certain direction for your own good at this time. [...]

This allows the inner self to work much more quickly and effectively. You can trick normal consciousness quite easily with baubles, take its attention into other areas so that the inner self is left alone to do its work. [...]

[...] The general overall condition of his body represents his general state of inner health. [...]

[...] This added to his inner sense of mobility.

[...] In the dream state you work intimately with the “inner grammar” of events. [...] The skeletons of the inner workings of events are there more obvious. [...]

Even as you speak your sentence with such fine conscious nonchalance, inner choices are still being made, as you unconsciously check your communications against events occurring outside you as you speak.

[...] These are flashed before a consciousness that momentarily focuses upon the inner rather than the outer arena of reality.

If, for example, you believe that you are possessed of great inner wealth, you may have a dream about a king in a fine palace. [...] Inner wealth would be interpreted here in the same terms as worldly luxury. [...]

This inner space does not “displace” normal space, or knock it aside. Yet the creation of a definite inner environment or location is concerned.

I said (in connection with Practice Element 15) that inner space expands, but so does inner time. [...]

The king, for example, may be at one time the symbol of great inner wealth. [...]

[...] We are attempting to work in such a manner that added knowledge from the intuitional inner self is also made known to the intellect.

[...] Seth stated that he did not realize Jane would achieve this focusing of inner energy so early in her studies with psychological time, and furthermore said that it could have unpleasant effects if it was unwittingly directed toward someone else. [...]

The ego however is not an afterthought disconnected from the whole self, and when the intellect becomes aware of data given to it by the intuitions or the inner self, it is then capable of informing the ego, which then changes its attitude accordingly. [...]

[...] Yet there is always the necessity of maintaining an overall balance of spontaneous inner freedom with disciplined attention. [...]
