“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] And in your dreams, those of you who are able to remember, you will be given instructions as to how to greet them, as to how to use the language without learning declensions. [...]

Anytime, right off, I learn too, you see. [...]

[...] Beside that there are significances in the vowels and syllables and sounds that will be explained to you as you learn what they are through experience. [...]

[...] And you are young now, and you learned from each lifetime, as indeed, you shall learn from this lifetime. [...]

You are at a particular point in your existence and it is a time for you to learn and to develop. [...]

[...] You are ready to learn about your past lives and to prepare for your future ones. [...]

[...] Tell him that I shall see to it that he learns what he wants to know. [...]

[...] There are disasters and dead end roads that your race has avoided completely, because in other systems of reality the lessons were learned and learned well.

When the lessons are learned there is no need for physical reality. [...]

[...] (Jane learned forward, quite intent.) It was safer where he was, and he hesitated to take that first step. [...]

[...] You learned through the experience, and there will be others.

[...] I had to go to the bank to get checks and money orders to pay taxes and bills, hook up the garden hose, and learn how to work the new sprinkler I’d bought to spray the flowers out back. [...]

(One thing I’ve learned above all else: I’ll never again create a situation like this, where years pass before a book is delivered to the publisher. [...]

[...] Somehow the person learns to circumnavigate the unpleasant situation, or the conditions change because of other people involved — and presto: the disease itself vanishes.

[...] He learned from it, and what he has learned will stand him in good stead. [...]

Illness in many ways is a learned response, and it follows patterns set up in the system having to do with memory banks, though we shall find a better word here.

Habitual illness will follow the lines of learned response and memory. [...]

[...] In terms of intensity alone, both the foot and the hip symptoms were highly charged, representing of course degrees of immobility and withdrawal—learned, you see, from the mother: a memory reaction adopted without conscious thought.

That is frightening, but it goes to show you that even I have things to learn... [...] For when you are born again, then you must completely readjust and learn to operate in a strange and alien environment. [...]

[...] Some of you still have to learn to use them and how to give them freedom. [...] You will have to give your high intellectual purpose and learn to use your minds as you never used them before. [...]

I want all of you to learn enough and think enough so that you will be able to read my material on your own—word by word—and understand what I am trying to say without the sugar coating and the frosting, though frosting is good. [...]

[...] (Intently:) You learned to dream differently than other creatures. [...]

Using the intellect alone, man did not simply learn through daily experience over the generations, say, that one season followed the other. [...]

[...] It is almost a threshold between the two realities, and you learned to hold your physical intent long enough at that threshold so that you have a kind of brief attention span there, and use it to draw from nonphysical reality precisely those creative elements that you need. [...]

[...] As soon as you did, I felt a circle of information open up — a lot of it — about when ancient man had a series of mass dreams in which he learned how to speak. [...]

[...] He learned to turn them off. [...]

[...] For now I simply want Ruburt to learn to recognize them. [...]

[...] These characteristics were necessary in the situation as given, until Ruburt learned the nature of the self, and could begin to trust it. [...]

[...] Hardly any of what you both have learned, was conscious then, however. [...]

[...] In learning to trust the changes in his body occurring now, Ruburt is at the same time learning to trust his own instincts, and the creaturehood of himself. [...]

The ape on one level represented the animal instincts feared by Ruburt’s mother and grandfather as well, so Ruburt learned to look upon them askance. [...]

It is not the soul, but the soul of the body that you must learn to trust; for the soul in the body represents the corporeal meeting of the physical and nonphysical selves, in the most practical of terms. [...]

[...] The body and the consciousness are learning to walk and function in a new way. [...]

[...] So far Ruburt is doing well, and will learn as he progresses how to operate inner acceleration and flow, or rush of energy, so that he is comfortable. And the ego, through experience, will learn that the inner self will always return safely. [...]

There are always new things to be learned as new levels are reached, new controls to be mastered, new balances to be maintained, new disciplines that must be adopted; and initially this does involve a natural, added exertion of energy and increased activity, before the whole self learns to deal with the new level, and is comfortable in its manipulations.

[...] Several lessons may also be learned from this. [...]

[...] Familiarity with such experiences, again, will quickly teach Ruburt to use the right touch, to learn how to control this acceleration and rush of the self, going either inward or outward; that is, leaving the physical image and returning to it; as with your airplanes, I believe, landing is important, without a crash.

He has learned much however since our last session, and you can see that it was much better that we allowed the distortions to come through in our first test, since it allowed him to learn more about the simultaneous existence of our consciousnesses during a session.

[...] He is quick to learn however, once he makes up his mind and is willing to learn.

[...] This may involve somewhat more than you suppose, but nevertheless you should learn to handle the sleep state well enough so that some success is achieved.

We will learn much through these endeavors, for they will provide lessons in themselves, and will be excellent examples of the precise manner in which extrasensory perceptions, as you prefer to call them, are received and interpreted. [...]

[...] You were not able to separate yourself from your emotions and to some extent you are learning that now. You are learning that you must. [...]

[...] You can learn to concentrate upon what you want and draw that to yourself and you can learn and without too much difficulty, to completely restructure the health habits of your family. [...]

[...] There you performed as a young man household chores but learned the flute from the younger son of the family. [...]

[...] You learned discipline, for to a large extent you did not allow yourself to express your own creativity but put yourself at the service of the communication of others. [...]

[...] They farm the land as you farm the water, and are only now learning how to operate upon the land for any amount of time, as you are only now learning how to manipulate below the water.

[...] It immediately begins to learn to accept certain neurological pulses which bring results, and not others, and so neurological patterns are early learned. [...]

[...] The child learning to walk may fall and hurt itself, yet it does learn. [...]

[...] At birth, and before structured learning processes begin, you are far freer in that regard.

[...] He is only now learning again the knack of consciously directing the body in the way he wants to—at a certain level, for what he is really learning to do is change the directions he has been giving it, for those worked very well.

Following your work so far with the book, Ruburt is learning to separate his body beliefs from his concepts of rockbed reality—to question them. [...]

Ruburt is just beginning his own dream endeavors—which could not seriously begin until he learned to have faith in his own being. [...] Muscle groupings have to learn to operate spontaneously together again, and this is being accomplished.

[...] He did not learn (pause) through trial and error to think clear thoughts. [...] He did learn through trial and error various ways of best translating those thoughts into physical action. [...]

[...] Jane got herself back into position across the coffee table from me while I described what I’d learned lately about Cro-Magnon man, who had lived in Europe some 35,000 years ago. [...]

[...] They did not learn how to form dams through trial and error (humorously). They did not for untold centuries build faulty dams, for example. [...]

(Long pause at 10:34.) Man did not have to learn by trial and error what plants were beneficial to eat, and what herbs were good for healing. [...]

[...] For some time they may indeed inhabit such an environment, until they learn through their own experience that existence demands development, and that such a heaven would be sterile, boring, and indeed “deadly.”

[...] If this is the case, then of course he will have to learn differently. [...]

[...] Those who have learned to understand and operate in the mechanics of the dream state will have great advantage. [...]

This is the experiment that has not been tried, and these are the truths that you must learn after physical death. [...]

In greater terms positive and negative have little meaning, for the physical experience is meant as a learning one. [...]

So as your beliefs change there will be alterations in your experience and behavior, and points of stress, creative stress, while you are learning. [...]

The shifting of belief may then open him to question his other beliefs, and he realizes that in the area of wealth, for example, he did very well because of his beliefs; but in those others, perhaps deeper experiences opened by his illness, he learns that human experience includes dimensions of reality that had earlier been closed to him, and that these are also easily within his reach — and without the illness that originally brought them forth. [...]

[...] So there is a period of stress in between beliefs, so to speak, while you dispense with one set and are learning to use another.

[...] Any true scientist will ultimately have to learn to enter that realm of reality. So-called objective approaches will only work at all when you are dealing with so-called objective effects — and your physicists are learning that even in that framework many “facts” are facts only within certain frequencies,² or under certain conditions. [...]

In sense terms he would learn little about an orange, though he might be able to isolate its elements, predict where others might be found, theorize about its environment — but the greater “withinness” of the orange is not found any place inside of its skin either. [...]

Give us a moment … The complete physician would be a person who learned to understand the dynamics of being, the soul-body relationship — one who was healthy in his or her own body. [...]

[...] It would seek out people who were healthy and learn from them how to promote health, and not how to diagram disease.

[...] Yet you will not learn the mechanics of health by putting yourself in a hospital. You may be cured of a particular disease, but unless you learn more about the dynamics of your being, you will simply “fall prey” to another. [...]

[...] Learning would take advantage of the latent inner knowledge of the subjective self, and help it interpret itself in terms of physical life. [...]

I am aware that some of this sounds “retrogressive,” for I am even suggesting a situation in which politicians or statesmen would learn to “dream wisely” — and become aware of the psyche, the mass psyche, of their people, and tune into the “private oracle.”

[...] The complete physician would try to understand the inner mechanics of vitality and, as best he could, learn to encourage these.
