“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] That rather formal division in her trance activities suits us well; we enjoy doing most of our work by ourselves, no matter what kind it may be.

1. For those who are interested in publishing matters: Like counterpoint endeavors, Jane’s Dialogues and Adventures have become interwound with her Seth books. [...]

[...] They’re listed in the front matter.

There are some matters that I said we would discuss, concerning experiments in recording dreams via your recorder, using suggestion to awaken you after a dream sequence. I also told you that we would discuss some implications arising from the fact that Philip was able to hear my voice, and we shall not overlook these matters.

[...] The matter was in your mind, and I am giving you a simple and direct answer.

[...] Your own time structure misleads you into your ideas of the relative permanency of physical matter, and you close your eyes to the constant alterations within it. [...]

One of my duties is to enlighten you on such matters. [...]

[...] There have been civilizations devoted mainly to art, in which all other endeavors were considered subsidiary, and the quality of workmanship was everything, no matter what the product. [...]

[...] No matter what her feelings may have been before tonight’s session began, Jane’s pace and delivery had been much more animated and energetic than it usually has lately. [...]

[...] It is the authoritative part of Ruburt that often takes charge even in psychic matters, and highly relevant. [...]

[...] We shall take up the matter again however at our next session also. [...]

[...] It is not a matter, then, of a whole self splitting in half, and then simply returning to itself.

[...] It is this charge of energy of truly cosmic proportion that allows for the initial breakthrough into matter. [...]

I keep trying to clear up certain matters for you, in the manner of a teacher, without offending your sensibilities, spurring you onward, but not wanting you to become despairing or dissatisfied overall with the state of your progress. [...]

[...] When the ego becomes too concerned with daily matters, with worry, then it becomes far less effective. [...]

The largest segment of the session dealt with personal matters connected with Rob’s earlier illness. [...]

Incidentally, while we are on the subject, often when you thought you were dealing with a matter or a person in a dissociated manner, you were instead exhibiting a cold, conscious detatchment. [...]

As your own body senses temperature changes, it also senses the psychic charge, not only of other individuals, but of plant and vegetative matter. [...]

These are completely separate constructions of energy into matter. You do not—and I repeat: you do not —perceive all constructions into matter. [...]

[...] She had no idea of Seth’s subject matter for the evening. [...]

The physical matter that is the chair, or rather Ruburt’s chair, is formed as I explained, and no atom in it is the same today and tomorrow. [...]

Out-of-body encounters were used as a matter of course. [...]

[...] This is an individual matter. [...]

Matter is a classification. [...]

[...] Matter was manipulated through sound. [...]

[...] We call it the Seth material, and it deals with such topics as the nature of physical matter, time, and reality, the god concept, probable universes, health, and reincarnation. [...]

[...] The book will include a description of the way in which it is being written, and the procedures necessary so that my own ideas can be spoken by Ruburt, or for that matter translated at all, in vocal terms.

[...] Some were devoted to personal matters, some given for specific people who needed help, and some were in answer to philosophical questions not connected with the book. [...]

[...] Certainly my writing training aids in the translation of his material and helps give it form, no matter how unconsciously this is done. [...]

I have told you that each individual creates physical matter, including objects, that he constructs his own physical image. [...]

(When I walked back downtown to the station at 5 PM to pick up the car, I was dismayed to be told that the mechanic there was having much trouble replacing the oil filter cap, that it persisted in leaking no matter how much force he used trying to tighten it. [...]

[...] I was told the mistake did not matter.

[...] By 8:50 this evening Jane was nervous, as usual, having no idea of Seth’s subject matter for the session.

[...] For that matter, neither would it have appealed to me.

(However, Jane could not get her wedding ring off at all, no matter how hard she tried. [...]

[...] We will go into the mechanisms involved in our gestalt at a later time, and we will make the whole matter plain.

[...] Not that it matters. [...]

[...] I said that the truth of the matter is that no one paid the slightest attention to the pendulum lying on her belly, nor even understood what she was doing. [...]

[...] Jane hadn’t been consciously thinking about psychic matters. [...]

There are several matters that I will discuss with you in the near future however. [...]

We will then close our session, but I will begin to take up the matters discussed this evening at our next session. [...]

[...] No matter what you said, he felt that he did not want to add to your work until then.

[...] The species however will always react against repression, no matter what its source, and so will the individual. [...]

[...] An explanation for this you will find in our discussion of the nature of matter.

There is much involved here that a reading of past sessions on matter will make plain. [...]

[...] We will go specifically into these matters at a later date.

Once again, in terms of your equations, energy and consciousness and matter are one. [...]
