“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] You must learn to listen to the voice of your inner self, for if you know the use you are to this man, you do not recognize the nature of his use to you.

[...] A recorder or record player: in particular, three women and a man. [...]

[...] As Seth you know me as an old man, but I have been a young woman. [...]

[...] You may think of me as an old man and yet my joy circles this room as a bluebird might fly from corner to corner. [...]

[...] I said that the spectacular results obtained had seemed to come straight out of Framework 2. We also discussed the long essay on early man in Time for November 7, and I remarked that I’d like to ask Seth some questions about the state of our present “knowledge” about our heritage.

Remind me, however, of your question about early man, and I will give you some material for it at our next session.

Seth told us quite a bit about this “man” that night, and described some of the methods he was using in an attempt to contact this reality. [...]

[...] He is an older man in his system of reality than Rob is in ours, and while he is engrossed in his painting, this interest is subordinated to his medical work.

[...] In this particular instance, compare the various portions of the whole self to the various members of a family: The man may work in the city. [...]

[...] The man could also enter the school, but there would be little purpose in such an arrangement.

[...] In the beginning you were stricken by poverty, but taken in by a wealthy man in a town within this province. There you performed as a young man household chores but learned the flute from the younger son of the family. [...] For some years, however, while you were financially secure yourself, you could not support them, and they were let out to the house of another wealthy man. [...]

[...] You were connected with a man named Aurelius. [...]

[...] I mentioned in our last session that the scientists did not realize that man has indeed evolved since the development of the human brain. For it has learned to form literally millions of new connections, meanings and concepts, new gestalts that have indeed made man something quite different than he was. [...]

[...] It was taken several years ago or more, on a hot day in the summer; Jane was also with a man whose first initial was W on that day.

Now as Ruburt said earlier, he (Martin) is a good man and besides that I like him. [...] A man’s myths are like his clothing  they are his own affair. [...]

(Before the session Jane said she thought Seth might discuss some of the ideas in a book by Fred Hoyle, the English astronomer that she’s reading, on the ten different universes of man. [...]

The atom, the molecule, the proton and neutron, the electrons, the quarks and other families of particles represent aspects of consciousness itself, which man then projects into the world of physics.

[...] Dr. George Instream is an upstanding and upright man, and a very cautious one. [...]

[...] However, while you may see these files, I will not have any part of showing my own legitimacy by pointing up the weaknesses of a man’s condition. [...]

[...] Perhaps the person, a man, died at 23, or 23 years ago, but the number 23 is somehow connected. Also connected with the man is the initial J, though I do not know if this is the man’s initial. [...]

[...] The second article also included another photo—this one of a man who was also elected with Mrs. Berry. [...]

(Joel told of finding a man asleep at his work, explained his feeling and emotions and could he change them?)

You can, indeed, but do not deny the part of you that wanted to wring the other man’s neck. [...]

[...] Instead, he bends down and says, my good man, et cetera, may you live long and hearty and God bless your life and then he pats himself on the back and thinks, I am growing more spiritual day by day. [...]

Our poor man again is aware, subconsciously of the intent, but only to some degree. [...]

[...] First of all, I have been many times both man and woman, and I have immersed myself in various occupations, but always with the idea of learning so that I could teach. [...]

(“What about my little view of myself this afternoon, as a very old man?”)

[...] In the meantime, I have no conscious memory of being an old man, let alone one in the specific, dependent situation in which I saw myself: However, aside from the idea of simultaneous time, I do believe that an individual can touch upon at least some of his or her earlier lives, provided enough long-term effort is given to the endeavor. [...]

I saw the head of a very old man, in his late 80’s or early 90’s. I had no doubt that this was a definitely probable version of myself in this reality. [...]

[...] I was sure that this old man was me, though, and no one else. [...]

[...] It is true that the outward manifestations of the libido are directed toward the physical world, but until the source of the libido is seen and studied and known to exist, not in the topmost subconscious layers of the individual, and not even in the racial subconscious, but within the entity itself, then man will not know himself.

Here you will discover man’s true origins, and the mechanisms and ways in which the unseen self operates, forms his universe of matter through psychic energy, and communicates on levels unperceived by his outer physical organism.

You see, or man sees, not even half of the whole entity which is himself. [...]

The man who upset you was much closer to you at one time than the man you were attracted to. [...]

[...] I met two men this week; one in the library who I felt a strong attraction for, an older man of sixty; and another one who I was greatly upset by who I met this Saturday.”)

[...] In the discussion of “primitive” and “civilized” man that followed, Warren presented his opinion that some civilizations, such as those of Babylonia, Egypt, the Incas, and so forth, had been founded by initiate groups from Atlantis⁴ … that while “primitive” man may have had a kind of gestalt consciousness, he had no individual consciousness. [...]

(Still to Warren:) So forget all of the histories, my dear friend, and listen to your own thoughts, which are today as alive and vital as those of any man ever born, in whatever time. [...]

[...] To go ahead creatively, forming new versions of a spiritual reality, to state that man and his impulses were good, brought him finally into direct conflict with the old beliefs of the Sinful Self, whose value system was based upon the idea that the self was indeed sinful, not to be trusted. [...]

[...] Most religious concepts, unfortunately, regardless of the original intentions behind them, end up by dividing man from his own sense of grace—his sense of rightness within the universe, and the individual will do almost anything to gain back that sense, for it is highly vital. [...]

[...] The Sinful Self’s material is too long and complicated to describe here, except to say that it contains the Sinful Self’s own view of reality and its relationship to Jane’s background and work, it’s regrets, its defensive attitudes, its questions, and its genuine puzzlement that man has for so long —perhaps for most of history, indeed—persisted in the creation of and reliance upon such entities as the Sinful Self. [...]

The main issues with which the Sinful Self was concerned were focused most clearly in Mass Events and God of Jane, since more than the other books they represent a direct confrontation “attacking” the very legitimacy of the entire concept of sin and evil, insisting more dramatically on the good intent of man’s basic impulses. [...]

[...] And your beliefs to the contrary, you have closed your minds to man’s own cooperative nature, to his innate desire for fellowship, his natural bent for taking care of others, and (with elaborate, if gentle emphasis) for altruistic behavior. [...]
