“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Without a sense of joy and inner accomplishment and development of potential, the personality will not only fail to flourish, but the inner self will refuse to maintain the physical structure adequately. [...] Superficial measures will not fool the inner self.

The ego that ignores too many of the possibilities of the inner self is soon in dire difficulty, and is forced to realize that it has been considering survival in a very limited light.

Now, changing the coordinates does involve a shifting of inner focus and an extension of the inner senses. [...]

He is forced in one way to reach further into inner reality, for I do not come as immediately to you as Seth as you knew him did. [...]

Ruburt is intrigued by the extension of his inner senses at this point. [...]

[...] On an inner level it meant, however, progressing slowly—probing the abilities, learning his way, while having a constant touch with the body, unpleasant or not, that would keep him physically oriented.

[...] Because the inner fears were not recognized, no efforts were made to face them, challenge them, or conquer them. [...]

[...] From the inner self and it is up to you to be free enough to understand this and use it. [...] You are to use your inner senses while you are in this room therefore. [...]

The inner self is always aware of the hidden mechanisms of these family gestalts. [...] Many of these form physical organizations that are actually manifestations of inner groupings.

[...] There are as many different ways to reincarnate, therefore, as there are inner selves, and each inner self will choose its own characteristic methods.

[...] If you look about you at your relatives, friends, acquaintances, and business associates, you will also see what kind of a person you are, for you are drawn to them as they are drawn to you, through very basic inner similarities.

[...] Now, each actor, going about the role, focused within the play, has an inner guide line. [...] He has knowledge and information that comes to him through what I call the inner senses.

Periods of renaissance — spiritual, artistic, or psychic — occur because the intense inner focus of those involved in the drama are directed toward those ends. [...]

[...] In these he is informed through the inner senses of his other roles, and he realizes that he is far more than the self appearing in any given play.

(To Tam:) Your inner attitude could slow you down. There must be an inner security, a quiet ... [...]

[...] Then imagine yourself walking on the water, listening with your inner ear and using inner eyes. [...]

[...] It is true that the old interactions between an associative pattern of thought and its habitual action may be broken down, but it is also true that the inner-ordered structure has been shocked psychically and biologically.

Nightmares in series are often inner-regulated shock therapy. [...]

[...] In periods of great physical stress it draws upon the powers of the body and inner self to perform remarkable feats of heroism — that leave it wondering afterward at the power and energy of the self in crisis.

[...] Consciousness finds itself in a crisis situation; not [because of one coming] from the exterior world, but because it is forced to fight on a battleground for which it was never designed and cannot understand, where basically counted-upon allies of association, memory and organization, and all the powers of the inner self, are suddenly turned into enemies.

It is the ego, practically speaking, who attempts to do the distinguishing here; but the inner core of the self, the inner ego of which we have spoken, manages the basic chore. [...]

It is rather important that the reality of these electromagnetic systems be understood, as they are so important in the construction of physical images and dream images, and since they are responsible for the inner communication which takes place beneath consciousness.

[...] These definite fields operate as channels for inner communications. [...]

These dreams go unrecognized by the conscious ego; but they do not go unrecorded by the inner self, and they therefore exist, and they form electromagnetic channels of their own to which—make that by which—the physical body itself is affected. [...]

Quite literally, the “inner self” forms the body by magically transforming thoughts and emotions into physical counterparts. [...]

[...] The inner self, therefore, individually and en masse, sends its psychic energy out, forming tentacles that coalesce into form.

[...] Here, I merely want you to understand that the world that you know is the reflection of an inner reality.

You are quite aware of these constructions as the inner self keeps track of them. [...]

[...] Such root dreams serve as a method of maintaining inner identity, and of communication. [...]

[...] Many root dreams are literal interpretations of abilities used by the inner self.

Van Gogh, for your information, was (underlined) obsessed personally with ideas of self-mutilation, and underwent great inner torture. [...]

Personally then he took upon himself what you would say perhaps were great problems—too great for the personality to handle, but his inner tendencies for self-mutilation always kept his vision true to his main image of the world.

[...] It is instead your own characteristic method of expressing reality, of perceiving inner data; the particular channel of your own understanding, learning and application, to which there are no limits.

The invisible environment within your mind is not as lonely as you might think, and your seeming inner isolation is caused by the ego’s persistent guard. [...]

[...] All divisions are merely illusions, so one probable self can hold out a helping hand to another, and through these inner communications the various probable selves in your terms begin to understand the nature of their identity.

In their own way, even atoms and molecules retain a knowledge of the forms through which they have passed, and so the individuals that compose any given civilization contain deep within themselves the inner knowledge of experiments and trials, successes and failures, in which the races have also been involved at other levels of reality. [...]

[...] The words and ideas in this book all stand for other inner realities — that is, they are like piano keys striking other chords; chords that, hopefully, will be activated within the psyche of each reader.

[...] In such a fashion, one large portion of the species focuses in physical reality while the other large portion holds a secure foothold in inner reality —

[...] If you think of mass daily action as performed by one gigantic being, then all of those conscious actions have unconscious counterparts, and a great intercommunication of an inner nervous system must take place.

[...] While the world is not a machine — its inner workings are such that no technology could ever copy them — this involves a natural mechanics in which the inner dimensions of consciousness everywhere emerge to form a materialized, cohesive, physical existence. [...]

For an exercise, then, imagine for a while that the subjective world of your thoughts, feelings, inner images and fantasies represent the “rockbed reality” from which individual physical events emerge. [...]

[...] Each of his activities can indeed flow easily one into the other, and he should remind himself that the inner intelligence within him is indeed on its own always seeking his best interest, and always of itself working on his behalf.

If he wants to, have him imagine this inner intelligence as a beloved parent. [...]

[...] The inner ego is the director as you know, but the whole self must know itself simultaneously. It is not enough that the inner ego knows what is going on. Ultimately therefore the inner ego must itself bring about comprehension on the parts of the various portions.

[...] Your stereophonic setting can be compared to what we have termed the inner ego. [...]

Now, the time in which the inner ego exists is, as you know, the spacious present. [...]

[...] There is, however, an inner environment that connects all consciousnesses that dwell upon your planet, in whatever form. [...]

[...] The sculptor’s statue, however, comes from the inner environment, the patterns of probabilities. [...]

[...] The solid matter of your world is the result of the play of your senses upon an inner dimension of activity that exists as legitimately, and yet as tantalizingly hidden, as an idea or a dream location.

[...] However, those who choose such deaths want to die in terms of drama, in the middle of their activities, and are in a strange way filled with the exultant inner knowledge of life’s strength even at the point of death. [...]

Cellular consciousness is a part of the consciousness of the inner ego or inner self. Very loosely speaking, cellular consciousness is to the inner self what the subconscious is to the outer ego. [...]

[...] Cellular consciousness is highly codified in actuality, much more emotional than visual, and the visual dream images are but translations of inner comprehensions. [...]

[...] Such dreams do carry the individual out away from ego identity, and at the same time closer to an inner identity that the ego usually attempts to deny.

[...] It is of course itself observed by the inner ego, which has managed to maintain its position securely within subjective reality, where it has a wider though somewhat less intense viewpoint.

We will of course tie this data in with our inner senses to a large degree, and there is much that I have not yet given you on the inner senses alone. The information on matter is a necessary preliminary to the understanding of other inner-sense information, and some of this will be given when I discuss your own experiences.

[...] Remember that the subconscious is at the outer end of the inner senses, and the inner senses create physical constructions. [...]

There are other constructions, quite as valid, which make little or no impression on the outer senses, but constructions with which the inner self is fairly familiar; and these so-called immaterial constructions exert a strong influence indirectly upon the world of physical construction.

The main point, before I get sidetracked, that I was building up to, is that matter is action utilized by the inner senses and perceived by the outer senses.
