“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] He can see people more when he is better, but you must indeed act at least mentally as if.

[...] Worrying is the opposite of mental healing, and will get you nowhere. [...]

These beliefs may have physical or mental repercussions, though in most cases the two do not occur at once. [...] In other instances the individual encounters the difficulties on mental or emotional levels. [...]

Both are necessary to maintain that larger “norm” of mental activity. [...]

[...] They represent strong inclinations toward certain bodily or mental activity, certain biological preferences. [...]

[...] Indeed, I seldom see consciousness mentioned in connection with genetics, except as its quality may relate to genetic “defects” like mental retardation, say.

[...] I hope that in other portions of this book certain mental exercises will allow you to leap over the tradition of time’s framework and sense with the united intellect and intuitions your own individual part in a spacious present that is large enough to contain all of time’s segments.

[...] His mental exercises involving the inner “darning” (which Jane had told me about earlier this afternoon) of the sores with new tissue works well. [...]

It is the clay which you form so that you can see the results of your mental work. [...]

[...] The mental associative patterns are completely different from your own. [...]

[...] It is particularly beneficial for those who have a too-rigid mental framework.

[...] It uses itself fully in mental activity in the same way that the kitten does in physical play.

The event with your company (Bumbalos), however, points rather dramatically toward important changes in Ruburt’s mental patterns, and he has had reminiscent experiences since. I have told you that the changes are first mental, and therefore let me briefly give the reasons for Ruburt’s ease and sense of freedom the evening that your neighbors were with you on the porch—you know what I am referring to.

[...] The belief system is like a mental and spiritual climate. [...]

[...] He has always been mentally quick and intellectually agile. [...]

[...] Your society puts great stress upon the belief that there is a division between inner and outer, physical and mental activity. [...]

[...] And in many cases of inherited difficulties, changes could be effected for the better, through the utilization of other mental methods that we will certainly get to someday.

[...] You have taught yourselves to be aware of and to follow only certain portions of your own consciousnesses, so that mentally you consider certain subjects taboo. [...]

[...] Questions abound involving amniocentesis (examination of the fluid in the womb to detect genetic defects in the fetus); therapeutic abortion; artificial insemination; reproduction by in vitro fertilization; embryo transfer (surrogate motherhood); the responsibilities of the legal, medical and religious communities; whether mentally retarded, genetically defective people should receive life-prolonging medical treatment, and so forth. [...]

[...] The fantasy, however, involved him in motion, aroused emotion, and instantly broadened his mental outlook. [...]

[...] It does things to time because of your intents and because of the peculiar nature of Framework 2. Such physical areas are charged in that regard because the mental areas connected with them are. [...]

Now: the idea of a journey is always highly important, symbolically speaking, so that particular mental fantasy is a good one. [...]

You should by now realize that they have an electric, magnetic reality also, and that the mental enzymes act as sparks, setting off these inner reactions.

[...] The intuitions themselves, while seemingly mental, are action, and as such they produce changes in the physical organism, both chemical and electromagnetic.

Illnesses must be treated primarily however by changing the basic mental habits, for unless this is done the trouble will erupt time and time again in different guises. [...]

[...] His energy is available (pause), and doors to his great mental house are open, awaiting entry. [...]

[...] When you are tense you impede mental, psychic, and artistic spontaneity, when you relax you are open to intuitive events.

The mind operates in the same fashion, following its own rhythms, covering mental ground at an amazingly quick rate on some occasions, and on others desiring a change or a rest.

[...] All systems are then formed mentally, including your own.

[...] There is an electromagnetic connection within and beneath all systems indeed, but this is only the result of inner mental connections. [...]

[...] These blueprints exist biologically and at every level — psychically, spiritually, mentally. [...]

[...] When Jane finished with certain challenges, Seth remarked, “… there will be a ‘birth’ of seemingly new concepts, simply because his [Jane’s] old mental barriers kept him from making certain important connections, and an increasing system of communication between waking and dreaming states.”

Though this book is entitled The Way Toward Health, we are not speaking of physical health alone, but of mental, spiritual, and emotional health as well. [...]

Following brief insights concerning these ideas, Ruburt found himself mentally making this kind of statement to himself (colon): I accept my natural agility wholeheartedly. [...]

Now these are powerful and “magical” statements, and as Ruburt made them mentally he could psychologically feel his agreement with any given one, and also the degree with which in the past he had not wholeheartedly accepted those abilities, but had set up certain restrictions about them—so a new flash in communication was set up, and new recognition came into his conscious mind. [...]

[...] On the other hand, the atmosphere was originally mental and the weather originates from this mental level.

(I’d just finished typing the last few pages for Monday night’s session, and I asked Jane what she thought of my final note: I’d speculated about any reincarnational connections that might tie her abilities to speak for Seth, without help of any modern kind, to the abilities ancient man had displayed, when, according to Seth, he’d been able to carry all of his history with him mentally. [...]

Now: Ruburt’s skill is as ancient as man is, and indeed all of your arts, sciences, and cultural achievements are the offshoots of (pause) spontaneous mental and biological processes.
