“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(11:14.) In practical terms they cannot suddenly snap back, but gradually relax, so that all of the subsidiary muscles can gradually accommodate the new motion.

This is sensible, in that it allows for the gradual acceptance of new stimuli, rather than a sudden, shocking, complete recovery, in which Ruburt is in a matter of moments confronted with issues he had completely avoided before.

That is, body and mind together explore their new freedom. [...]

(But while we were eating those portions, another new development in Jane’s progress occurred —and an important one. [...] She said she’d asked mentally that she have some new development to show me on Christmas Day. [...]

Ruburt wanted to surprise you with a new physical accomplishment, or motion. [...]

lord let me remember how it was
when i nudged my skin
against the touch of each new morning
and bounded through
the thick thought-forests
that stretched between dawn and noon,
when like magic my lunch was put before me.
lord let me remember how it was
when i was so new
that i thought i was part of the morning.

i didn’t want to sleep
for fear the world would disappear
but new days kept coming and coming.
the old ones slipped away one
by one, but were always replenished.

[...] Feinberg sponsored a law bearing his name, and possibly is, or was, a New York State legislator. [...] Evidently he is connected to New York State in some official capacity.

[...] Jane wrote it, since she had a part-time job with the newspaper while attending Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. [...]

[...] The news article concerns the Feinberg Law, which spells out the intent of the New York State Legislature in the Education Law, concerning the removal of any school employees for treasonable or seditious acts. [...]

[...] The whole tone of the news story about the Feinberg law and the Education Law of New York State concerns the protection of civil rights, and protection by the Constitution; but without using the constitution as a hiding place for subversives, etc. [...]

The ability to manifest itself—and the always new creativity. For the entity itself is involved in a surprise, in a new creation. There are always new creations. And the entity, and even God himself—pyramid gestalts—must be involved in surprise and new creations. [...]

The relationship can indeed be begun again, but only under completely new terms, and only with self-knowledge on our friends part. [...]

You must not change in order to get her back; you must change to get yourself back, but a new self. [...]

Creativity is always discontent—and always about new surprises. [...]

There will be new developments in our sessions, and new experiments with others, as a result of Ruburt’s first book.

It portrays the new consciousness seeing itself unique and separate, evolving from the tree of life and therefore able to examine its fruits, to see itself for the first time as different from others, like the serpent who crawled upon the surface of the earth. [...] In so doing he quite purposefully detached himself, in your terms now, from the body of his planet in a new way. [...]

[...] The beliefs may be revised to fit your new image, for example, while the main pattern remains the same.

The body is responding to the new conditions. [...] He is adjusting to the new conditions.

[...] The body is flexibility and health is a natural result of alterations of consciousness—a change of focus that literally brings about new experience.

[...] The new arrangement seems to be a very comfortable one. [...]

Dictation, in your cozy new den.

[...] The new laws would follow.

(Long pause at 9:48.) Any new law always follows the change in belief. [...]

[...] When his creative abilities found contemporary scientific thought also too narrow, however, and his natural intuitions had led him toward a new framework—one that, again, introduced values having to do with the nature of consciousness, or soul—then the new ideas began to conflict directly with the old buried ones, particularly those that had to do with the conflicts between creative expression, the church, and “forbidden knowledge.” 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. [...]

The creative abilities will instantly begin a new attempt to reconcile the entire affair, given a freer hand than before. [...]

The sessions brought about, however, a new kind of education that often seemed in direct conflict with the old, and with the official views of contemporary society. [...]

[...] In the same way, many other concepts and ideas already given will also assume a new significance and meaning, and add to the richness of your experience, because you will be open to them more than you were before — Ruburt in particular — to ideas having to do with reincarnation, life after death, other spheres of activity.

[...] It represents a certain state of consciousness — an in-between threshold dimension of awareness, in which the imagination and the senses are almost caught in the act of putting an object together, or of bringing the world into a sensed reality, brand-new, from the realm of the inner mind: a very evocative state of consciousness, and one that as I believe Ruburt mentioned, you could also use in connection with faces.

[...] Through an arrangement with my mother, Stella Butts, Miss Bowman loaned me the money to attend commercial art school in New York City from 1939 to 1941. [...]

[...] There has been however on both of your parts a new determination to do what is necessary, an impetus not to let matters ride, and a new quickening at other levels of your own relationship with each other, so that your love for each other in Framework 2 is coming to your aid now.

However, the source self always attempts to send new information, inspiration, or whatever help is required. [...]

Ruburt’s new inclination for house cleaning is an excellent sign of intent and impulse, and your own support marks your own determination. [...]

(Long pause at 8:43.) Deplorable as world conditions seem, for example, as man’s desperate need for self-understanding is made known to himself, so in that world also there is a time of sensed change: new values that “will take this time.” [...] I will have far more to say whenever you decide our next session should be—tomorrow evening or whenever, as you embark upon your new saga—and for now I bid you a fond good evening. [...]

[...] A time and a rhythm occurred in which you both knew that therapeutic ventures, started now for many reasons could take quicker route—that is, you sensed upon a new probability. [...]

(Pause at 8:43.) It attracted you—you felt the pull of needed change (with gestures), but this change had a new sense of attraction. [...]

(On Friday evening, September 5, we had as visitors Dick and Carol Crossed; Edward Gassner, 3664 Culver Road [14622], and Bernard Houlihan, 25 Ewer Avenue [14622]—all of Rochester, New York. [...]

[...] Betty Taylor may soon change her position, moving to Washington DC from New York City to do reporting coverage for various magazines. [...]

[...] You will meet both men at parties in New York, and one man directly through the Miss Taylor who called this evening.

(The group referred to is the Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship, New York City chapter; the discussed meeting is set for October 20.

[...] He will, however, begin a new religious drama. [...] He will return to straighten out Christianity, which will be in a shambles at the time of his arrival, and to set up a new system of thought when the world is sorely in need of one.

[...] The expectations were set long ago in your terms, and will be fed by new prophets until the third personality of Christ does indeed emerge.

[...] A new era will indeed begin — not, now, a heaven on earth, but a far more sane and just world, in which man is far more aware of his relationship with his planet and of his freedom within time.

[...] The “new religion” following the Second Coming will not be Christian in your terms, although the third personality of Christ will initiate it.

[...] Our journey together continues with new insights, new challenges, new understandings. [...]

But even trying to take into account all that Jane accomplished, I know that while I proofread the galleys of The Personal Sessions as Rick Stack of New Awareness Network sends them to me volume by volume, I’ll still come across material that is new to me. Each discovery, large or small, will be a new truth. [...]

[...] Ed talked about moving with his family to New Paltz, a small community about 110 miles south, near the Hudson River; he might find commercial work there with a friend. I thought of returning to my parents’ home in Sayre, and then going on to New York City as I’d originally planned to do before receiving that life-changing call from Ed.

Getting a divorce in New York State was difficult in the 1950s, but easy to achieve in Florida. [...] I found work painting signs, and prepared samples of advertising art to show art directors in New York City once we’d returned north. [...]

[...] The feelings in the leg and the knee do indeed signify new motion, and the willingness to move. [...]

[...] The problem came with the insertion of questions of good or bad, truth or falsehood, and certainly with any possibility of, say, setting up a new religion. [...]

[...] As I turned on a couple of additional lights in the living room, to see to write by, our friends in the fireplace began to sound off —adding a new sort of whistling or crying sound—and Jane made what may be a good point: light may leak past the closed damper enough that the raccoons respond to that stimulus. [...]

[...] We again used the pendulum, and learned a few new things. [...] Seth’s new book was exonerated.

[...] The last paragraph was new: she felt she couldn’t pressure Eleanor because Dick was publicizing Jane’s books. [...]

[...] The new organization at Prentice-Hall, the General Publishing Division, has announced a new, reduced system of royalties, but Jane continues as she has been. Tam also sent Jane a copy of the new Prentice-Hall contract form, but informed her that she can continue to use the old one she’s accustomed to, if she wants to.)

[...] Instead he measured her for new reading glasses, and these alone evoked an enthusiastic response from Jane, since she could see to read much better with the test lenses. [...]

[...] Jim Adams is to see us later this week to check on black frames for Jane’s new glasses, and she can question him on Werner’s responses then. [...]

There are others, far less numerous, where highly venturesome personalities chose to set up new trails and strike out in new ways. [...]

[...] They may join it in a new formation. [...]

[...] A personality then, starting out with one main purpose, may find itself involved in experience that opens new areas, and it may pursue them. [...]

Sooner or later the man will cease walking merely from his house to his garden, and use other roads or forge new paths. [...]
