“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The doctors accept this mandate since they share the same framework of belief, so the medical profession obviously needs patients as badly as the ill need the hospitals. [...] The prisons and law enforcement agencies need criminals in the same way that criminals need them, for they operate within the same system of belief. [...] (Pause.) If you do not understand that you create your own reality, then you may assign all good results to a personified god, and need the existence of a devil to explain the undesirable reality. So churches as they now exist in Western society need a devil as well as a god.

[...] The need to act and be in control of action is paramount in conscious beings. [...]

[...] You will no longer need to transfer your sense of power to others. [...]

As you understand the nature of natural hypnosis, you will no longer feel the need to generate new negative feelings. [...]

[...] For some time yet, you will need its familiarity. And you will need the human characteristics that you know—and that were mine—and they are still mine, for this self of mine that I show to you does still exist and grow. [...] And to that self, physical reality is like a breath of smoke in the air and that self does not need the characteristics that you know and find so endearing. [...]

[...] And you need to learn the difference. Here you need to learn the difference. [...]

[...] and you will know when we have the session, you—will intuitively realize, that what we say is true—and there is no need to fight what you are fighting—and the secret that you try so hard to hide from your conscious mind is not that terrible a secret. [...]

[...] I needed a personality who would be able to maintain psychological stability. [...]

[...] The sessions need regularity. They also need spontaneity, and for his own nature, I try to see that both needs are met. [...]

I have been aware of the Pitre request, and when any of your correspondents are in very immediate need I will always hold a session for them at once.

[...] Ruburt need not feel so responsible in such cases.

[...] The psychic work with Ruburt has a strong spontaneous nature, and at times he resents, while he also needs, the regular schedules that you seem to require physically.

[...] For some time yet, you will need its familiarity. And you will need the human characteristics that you know ... [...] and that self does not need the characteristics that you know and find so endearing. [...]

[...] And you need to learn the difference. Here you need to learn the difference. [...]

[...] And there is no need to fight what you are fighting... [...]

[...] I needed a personality who would be able to maintain psychological stability. [...]

[...] The needs of any microscopic entity are its own. [...] Yet those needs, fulfilled, with seeming selfishness, are precisely those that are required by other entities as well. Nor does such an entity hold its own needs isolated, but “considered” them as a part of a cooperative venture.

You need not pretend that the foggy valley does not exist. [...]

[...] Take the amoeba, a one-celled microscopic animal, for instance: I knew that the protoplasm in the amoeba, the essential living matter, represents the individual needing-to-go-out quality. Yet the protoplasm must conform to its environment — in this case the amoeba’s ‘body,’ which can only move as a unit when directed by the individualistic need to react to stimuli.

[...] Otherwise it would not be responsive to the needs and desires of the entire personality.

[...] (Voice stronger for emphasis:) It can also look in both directions. It makes judgments about the nature of reality in relationship to its and your needs. [...]

[...] Not that Ruburt need regulate his, but that his distraction or impatience causes the cat to overreact.

[...] The need for money literally strangles him. [...]

There is little need for you to itch to have what he has. [...]

[...] Yet because you are an artist above all, you also punished yourself for your envy with the faltering hand, so that the hand expressed two needs.

[...] The envy being realized subconsciously for what it was, isolated in such a manner, meant that the hand need no longer falter.

[...] Not that we wanted or needed conscious control—but why didn’t we have the conscious visual knowledge of the workings of our various bodily parts, be they heart, liver, or whatnot?

[...] He knew he needed rain and sun and food as the land did. [...]

[...] It would not have added to his health for example either, for he listened to his body so acutely that natural healings followed as he sought from nature what his body needed. [...]

[...] Yet again, men who felt they had the fleetness of the gazelle, the heart of the lion, or whatever, did not need literal knowledge in your terms. [...]

Those who are not completely focused in physical reality will look for other ways of fulfilling their needs. [...] They will be left with the need for fulfillment however. [...]

[...] You yourself also need this change in immediate environment. [...]

[...] Ruburt need not go to the chiropractor for a while. [...]

[...] There is no need to force this. [...]

These need not be necessarily violent motions, but they will induce a feeling of freedom and spontaneity, and increase blood circulation. [...]

[...] Strenuous exercise, not necessarily overdone you understand, but strenuous exercise physically and imagined, will in itself lead to the kind of deep relaxation that he also must learn now to achieve, and which is needed by the system.

[...] You know enough now so that you do not need to be overly concerned with it on a conscious level. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Let Ruburt follow the program faithfully, yet with a more carefree attitude toward it, with a more relaxed attitude, He should reread the book, yet in his free moments he need not concentrate upon the program. [...]

[...] You heard him, and wondered if he was perhaps in the bathroom and needed your help. [...]

[...] He still needs encouragement as far as relaxation is concerned, but he has turned the corner. [...]

[...] His physical reassurance is necessary—that is, he needs to be reassured that physically he can improve, and perform.

[...] In here you need a note concerning Ruburt’s insights of yesterday. [...]

[...] He felt earlier that you withheld it because you had little use for anyone who needed it, that to request it was impossible to begin with. [...]

[...] He was saying “In big things where I need help you often refuse to help, and your help is a gesture as when you light my cigarette, when I can do that myself.” [...]

[...] His natural inclinations, followed, allow for exercise when it is needed, and rest when it is needed, so that the natural resiliency of the muscles can be expressed without strain. [...]

[...] Practically speaking however, muscles suddenly released from tension need first to simply relax and gain strength, and resiliency, practically. [...]

[...] There are indeed various kinds of memory, so that the right information can be at your fingertips when you need it. [...]

[...] The growth of feelings, sensations, I am-ness, concepts and beliefs was paralleled by the resulting exterior manifestations of animal species, and mineral and vegetable emergences; with these came the growth of complementary neurological structures, and the precise physical formations, such as mountains, valleys, seas, and so forth needed to sustain them.

[...] They need a strong stimulus or impact with reality against which to pit themselves, however. [...]

(Pause at 11:38.) You do not need a self-conscious mind to feel, and in the “past,” earthquakes represented the feeling-patterns of species in the same way — unstable conditions of consciousness that in themselves initiated natural phenomena, further altering the state of consciousness and the conditions of species as well.

[...] You always have the energy and the means to meet the deepest needs of your own personality, but not to meet the needs of other kinds of personalities.

When you begin devoting your time to your painting you will be satisfying then a deep need of your being, and therefore energized. [...]

[...] There is no need to compare one type of personality with another than there is to compare a toad to a bird, or an ant to an elephant.

[...] So there is no need to compare personalities in a judging way, merely to know your own.

[...] The need to justify life through writing, the exaggerated need for protection from the deceptive unconscious and the unsafe world, and the concept itself were so involved with his entire thinking patterns that he could not isolate it to see where and how it bore upon his activities. [...]

(Long pause.) Ruburt broke through both psychically and creatively—that is, the sessions almost immediately provided him with new creative inspiration and expression and with the expansions needed psychologically that would help fulfill his promise as a writer and as a mature personality. [...]

[...] Through all of that Ruburt of course looked for further creative developments and intuitive breakthroughs, for, again, he needed more room. [...]

[...] Again, he needed room to grow. [...]

[...] Jane had felt the need for a rest. [...]

There is no need to keep questioning the names and dates. [...]

There is no need to be so uneasy on that point however. [...]

[...] But we do not want you to get lost within the mazes, and so we are giving you maps, and when you get where you are going you no longer need the maps.

[...] They have a need to help other people, and to contribute to the common good. Many people who commit suicide feel to the contrary that they are no longer needed, or in fact that their very existence stands in the way of other people’s happiness. [...] In fact, poverty often serves as a strong impetus, leading the individual to fight for his or her daily needs.

Indeed, part of the would-be suicide’s dilemma may be caused by a lack of communication with others, a misinterpretation of the motives of friends or family members, and a difficulty in expressing one’s own needs and wishes.

[...] Once again we wondered how much more of a boost her thyroid medication needed, but we haven’t heard from Dr. Kardon about it—or anything else, for that matter, since we had the meeting with Dr. Sobel last Friday, May 28. [...]

[...] The last thing we needed to hear. [...]

[...] He needs that background of past joy and success, of sunny hours in the past, to help revive him. [...]

[...] End of visit—no bill need be expected (with more humor). [...]

[...] He senses this subconscious need of hers however to hold him, and resents it vigorously. [...]

She fears, for one thing, that you could run the house more efficiently than she can, and basically that you do not need her. [...]

[...] She needs drama, within the framework of the home, and she wants this from you. [...]

[...] The simple fact is that you do need her, and you have not communicated this. [...]
