“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Number fifty-five: This question comes from the answer you gave to number eleven, when I asked you about the training Jane would need in order to deliver one of the ancient Speaker manuscripts. [...]

(“Number fifty-three: In the 429th session for August 14, 1968, you said that some personalities can be a part of more than one entity.”)

[...] “Number forty-six. [...]

[...] Magnify their number proportionally amid the 1,000 or so employees at the hospital, and what sort of percentage of sick employees would you have? [...]

[...] Not very elaborate: I’d dreamed that I’d been visiting some friends, a married couple, I believe, and that they had a number of cats of their own in the place. [...]

[...] It is as if an infinite number of orchestras were playing simultaneously (long pause), and each note sounded was also played in all of its probable positions with each other note possible, and in combination with all of the probable versions of the entire piece being played.

Following the accident at TMI, and aside from the great fears “generated” by it, a host of problems began accumulating for the nuclear power industry—involving everything from poor plant design (as Seth commented in the 914th session for Chapter 7 of Dreams), to enormous cost overruns and the fear of default on bond issues, shoddy construction and quality control, human and mechanical error, the disposal of radioactive waste, conflicts with antinuclear and environmental groups, arguments over evacuation plans at various nuclear-plant sites, a greatly expanded list of steps (numbering in the thousands) that the NRC is compiling for utilities to take in order to increase the safety of their plants, and even governmental concern over the possible manipulation and falsification of plant safety records. [...]

[...] However, I told Jane, in his own way Seth had incorporated mathematical ideas in his material: I saw correlations between his probable realities, his intervals, and the concept of an infinite number of points on a line—and that some mathematical definitions of infinity are considered to be more basic, or of a greater order, than others. [...]

[...] It was her first job; she had to get working papers and a Social Security number. [...]

A torn page of a pad or notebook, with numbers written on it, either for the Jesuit (Bill) or in his handwriting.

A page number 397 connected with him. [...]

[...] I get the numbers 8051J ... [...] This could be part of a license or serial number on a motorcycle, I don’t know.

(At 9:15: “I hear the tune of One is the Loneliest Number, a currently popular song.

[...] Sessions 449 and 450 take up the last 18 pages— hence Roger’s references to numbers in the 4,000 category.)

(“The number four.” We seldom can make positive connections with single numbers. The number 4 appears three times on the empty envelope object. [...]

The number four. [...]

I am not sure, though the number 17 seems connected to it, or 14, between the 14th and the 17th of February. [...]

[...] True, the data was not as specific as it has often been, but it did contain a number of valid points. [...]

[...] The numbers 1, 2, 3. A room. [...] The number 12. [...]

(Jane said that Seth’s count of 1, 2, 3 was his way—or Jane’s?—of leading up to the number 4 that I wrote on the drawing, referring to David’s age. [...] “The number 12” can apply easily enough. [...]

A succession of numbers in a row, backwards, as of 10, 9, et cetera.

[...] people about a round object, such as a table,” is quite interesting, and can apply twice, as the number twelve applied four times. [...]

[...] The money did not come by computing the number of hours worked on a project, for example, or the number of hours worked at a job, but instead accumulated because of the quality of creative work and the inquisitiveness of the creative mind. [...]

When either of you concentrates upon your dissatisfactions with Prentice, or number its particular failings, or picture covers you did not like, or whatever, it is like Ruburt concentrating upon his symptoms. [...]

(Long pause.) If you numbered each aspect of a dream, then each number would represent itself in a different numerical system entirely. The surface numbers, or the familiar ones, would still serve to explain the dream in the context of your own world. [...]

[...] There are, in fact, an almost infinite number of stages connected with the state of health. You could invent a completely different way of regarding human health by numbering and defining each of those stages. [...]

[...] I can add to Jane’s paper that we went over last Friday’s session together Saturday night after I’d finished typing it, and discussed a number of points rather specifically. [...]

[...] In other words, I said, we’d been approaching the problem backwards: Jane wasn’t sick so much because of her past as she was because of what we were doing every day in present reality—reinforcing and/or perpetuating the symptoms because they served a number of beliefs about present-day reality. [...]

If you wanted to monitor the number of people who came to the house, or the publicity involved, the symptoms provided a built-in framework. [...]

(We did take Tom’s address and phone number, Jane telling him that she might invite him and friends to the house some Friday night, with others. [...]

[...] He’s also written a number of poems. [...]

[...] So have large portions of a number of the sessions themselves. [...]

For a number of reasons, hardcover books especially are much more expensive in Europe than they are in the United States. [...]

[...] It’s from a number of sketches and untitled poems she did as a birthday book for me last June:

[...] For my own amusement, in recent years I’ve often tried to objectify that statement by equating the possible number of probable realities with the current scientific estimate of the number of atoms in the universe: 10⁷⁹, or a 1 followed by 79 zeroes. But even if that rather simple number is inconceivable to us it still won’t do, of course, for it represents only a limit of measurement inside the “physical” universe we think we know. Within the limitless realms of consciousness, 10⁷⁹ is still but a doorway to vastly greater imaginative quantities and qualities of either numbers or probable realities. [...]

In this essay I’ll touch upon a number of subjects. [...]

[...] But without dwelling upon them too heavily, I may consider the notion of my larger, nonphysical “whole self” or “entity” being made up of a number of other psychically related physical selves projected into time. [...]

All of this reminds me that lately the media have carried a number of stories detailing how medical science is not only trying hard to approach cures for scourges like cancer (in cancer’s case, possibly through the exploration and understanding of the role played in the cell nucleus by altered normal cells called oncogenes), but is already claiming to have narrowed down its search to specific genes that affect imponderables like behavior—depression, for example. [...]

[...] The number 4, or four numbers. [...]

[...] The number of electrical connections are important however, and even old portions of the brain are affected by them. [...]

[...] The number 12. [...]

[...] (Jane shook her head.) There is something, a gate or a runway with the number 3, 5; 35, possibly the number on their luggage ticket. [...]

He concentrates, and he is thinking of a number, perhaps a zero. [...]

An identification by number. [...]

[...] It’s with much feeling indeed that I try to write briefly about the 16 private or “deleted” Seth sessions, ranging from numbers 367 to 387, that aren’t included in this Volume 8 of The Early Sessions. [...]

In 10 of the sessions between the numbers 314 and 325 in Volume 7 we see how, with Jane’s need and consent, Seth was reaching into deeper, more penetrating material involving her conscious and unconscious lives. [...]

[...] Actual title and number of volumes unknown at present. [...]

Now the consciousness of such beings would also contain the consciousness of large numbers of probable selves and systems, experienced quite vividly and clearly as multiple presents. These multiple presents can be altered at any of an actual number of infinite points; infinity not existing in terms of one indefinite line, but in terms of numberless probabilities and possible combinations growing out of each act of consciousness.

[...] She hasn’t “walked” for weeks now—since last year—and the hip problems especially have persisted now for a number of months. [...]

[...] It is curtailed because the number of impulses are so drastically reduced by circumstance. [...]

[...] The captors then cut down on the freedom of the hostages by reducing the number of impulses to which the hostages could respond. [...]

[...] I haven’t had a chance to discuss this with her, but it seems possible that her disseminating her ideas to a large number of people, in person each week, could have struck her deep-seated need for protection.... [...]

[...] Seth’s naming a good number of class members as counterparts came as no great surprise to Jane and me — but it did make us more than a little suspicious at first. [...]

(My counterpart, Peter Smith, and I are both professional artists; we’re roughly of an age, with strong interests in other forms of creativity, such as writing, and in myth and fantasy.¹ A number of the similarities and differences between Jane and me should be obvious to our readers; she also does quite a lot of painting.
