“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Was I trying to develop one of those here in my own physical reality? [...]

[...] The main identity continues to exist, even as the consciousnesses of millions of cells still exist that at one time were part of the body.

(A one-minute pause at 9:59.)

(A long pause, one of many, at 10:07.) The body’s very structure will in itself set patterns for the kinds of probabilities that can be practically experienced. [...]

[...] No one should sit in who is not of same mind yet.

[...] Whenever she dictated an answer to me, or part of one, it is noted in the text of the answer at the exact point dictation began. [...]

(“Could either one of us, using the board alone, contact you?”)

[...] It was one of many that came and vanished. [...]

1. The “big bang” theory postulates that 10 to 15 billion years ago all matter — or energy — was concentrated in one great primordial “atom.” [...] One variation of the theory considered a pulsating universe that results from the repeated collapsing and expanding of all matter-energy.

[...] Unfortunately, no one examines the nature of mental reality from such a viewpoint. [...]

Regardless, there are certain tendencies, mental stances, that you will take about yourself, your body and your life to one degree or another. [...]

This of course involves considerations of race, and you must realize that your present race is the one into which you were born, in your terms, in this place and time. [...]

[...] It is a creation of consciousness, rising into one unique kind of expression from that divine gestalt of being—and that divine gestalt of being is of such unimaginable dimensions that its entire reality cannot appear within any one of its own realities, its own worlds.

[...] We didn’t use one either, and so for the first time in a long while Seth’s material disappeared as rapidly as it was given—an odd experience for us. [...]

Dictation: You can only locate or pinpoint an event that falls one way or another into the range of your perception.

(Pause, one of many.) Light can be defined as a wave or as a particle,² and the same is true in many other instances. [...]

One mind alone could not come into being from chance alone; one thought could not leap from an infinite number of nerve ends, if matter itself was not initially alive with consciousness, packed with the intent to be. A man who believes life has little meaning quickly leaves life—and a meaningless existence could never produce life (intently). Nor was the universe created for one species alone, by a God who is simply a supervision of the same species—as willful and destructive as man at his worst.

When CU’s operate as waves, however, they do not set up any boundaries about their own self-awareness—and when operating as waves CU’s can indeed be in more than one place at one time.

(Pause at 9:04, one of many.) Each “particleized” unit, however, rides the continual thrust set up by fields of consciousness, in which wave and particle both belong. [...]

[...] The words in paragraphs like the one above rolled out of her in a strong and almost grand manner. [...]

(One question concerned what Seth actually “sees” when he is confronting a witness, and he answers this briefly in tonight’s session. I would like to note one physical effect that took place. [...]

[...] He answered the ones that would make sense to them offhand, and parried others or simply stated the answers would make no sense to them at the moment. [...]

I would suggest however that the first recalled dream for any given evening be compared with the first recalled dream from other evenings, that the second recalled dream from any one evening be compared with the second dream from other evenings, and so forth. [...]

[...] I believe Ruburt’s top number of recalled dreams for one night was thirteen. [...]

[...] This is a case where Jane had seen one of the two items making up the envelope objects very recently—the beer can cap, on Friday, October 7, three days ago. [...] When I picked up a cap to blacken in the flame I thought this would focus Jane’s conscious attention on this particular one, but she told me at break tonight that she hadn’t noticed my heating the cap, or else had forgotten it.

(Obviously, one could search out many threes in the course of an evening, although we think the trio connection listed above is a strong emotional and valid one.

[...] This is interesting, and we believe refers to a wicker upright armchair that one of us sat in when at the table tipping game the last time of the evening. [...] When a fourth member was added to the last table tipping of the evening, featuring Jane, Bill, Don and myself, the wicker armchair was pressed into use since it was the only one available except for a Kennedy rocker. [...]

They are not one-dimensional images therefore, nor for that matter are they static. [...]

[...] I have drawn it several times, the most elaborate drawing being one I intended to incorporate in a tempera painting last winter. [...]

[...] One of these limbs arched up over our lawn toward our living room on the second floor, and the jutting-out bay windows of the apartment beneath us on the ground floor. [...]

(Jane was still talking in a voice stronger than usual, though not one any deeper beyond a slight degree. [...]

[...] In other words, I change the alignment of my components, focusing my powers into one particular direction.

[...] When LuAnn was in she replaced the new nose patch that Georgia had put on to replace the one Phyllis had put on yesterday—the first one had been too big, the second too small, the third one was just right.

[...] No word on what’s happened with Graciella—I’d thought that match was one of those ideal ones. [...]

[...] She showed me how she could open up her legs more than before, and extend the right one down more. [...] “I think Fred figured I’d never walk again, so it didn’t matter what happened to the right one after I broke it,” she said. [...]

[...] No one had told us this—not even Andy Fife. [...]

[...] In one reality, for example, Joseph’s mother married Mr. Markle. [...] In that reality Mr. Markle died before Joseph’s mother did, so there was no need for a Joseph, here, to even look for a house; he had one. [...] And in this reality [the one you and Ruburt know] Ruburt instinctively felt apart from that house.

[...] It does show, however, that one portion of Joseph’s mother, the portion connected to her son, still relates to him in a certain fashion. It also shows that his desires for a house in Sayre (deeper and stronger) helped bring about certain events: He could have such a house if he wanted one.

[...] This small private experience is repeated endlessly with different variations in all areas of daily living — that is, probable events constantly interact, and (intently) through their interaction you end up with one recognized series of episodes that you accept, called physical reality.

[...] While the body’s integrity must lie in a constant reiteration in one probability, and maintain within that probable system a certain “constant,” and while physically perception is largely directed there, the basic integrity of the body system and consciousness comes from outside the system into it. [...]

[...] Now: Because of this particular temperament he put all of his eggs in one basket, so to speak. Those of you who do the same thing will see yourselves in one particular way, whatever it is. [...] You will, however, emphasize one certain quality above all others — your athletic nature, your spiritual bent, whatever it may be.

[...] There may be some “invisible beliefs,” and there may be one or two invisible core beliefs. [...]

[...] (See the notes prefacing the last session.) As you examine your ideas you will discover that even some apparently contradictory ones have similarities, and these resemblances may be used to bridge the gaps between beliefs — even those that seem to be the most diverse. [...]

[...] On second thought, however, you will realize that another belief blocked that one from your view, but that you were always aware of it; and that in a strange way it was also invisible because you took it for granted. [...]

[...] I was not calling one, but was willing to have one in answer to the woman’s need.

[...] One was a shipyard worker. One was a lawyer in his younger days but due to trouble he died poor.

On one level then Ruburt was psychically anticipating winter with its symbolism, and he involved you in his concern. The dream said that Ruburt died once and yet lived again, and that as you survived a leaky old ship at one occasion, so would the basic selves always survive.

[...] She opened the door into a room containing one full-sized bed and another adult, though smaller, bed. [...]

[...] As I suspected he might do, Seth began this evening’s session by dealing with the second one. [...]

In a manner of speaking your experienced, practical reality is made up of events that seem entire to you, or relatively complete, while from my dimension it is apparent that your recognized events are simply portions of larger ones. [...]

[...] When we are working on such a project here (in your reality), we are working on probable books also, and those are as real as your official one. [...]

In one reality, of course, the work was finished at the Foster Avenue house (in Elmira, New York). In another it was finished in Sayre (Pennsylvania).

(Long pause, one of many, etc.) Some of your own attitudes still escape you. [...]

[...] There is no one to whom he wishes ill. [...]

[...] There is one area you see where he (Leonard) is thus far entirely blocked, for he cannot love another person wholeheartedly, nor imagine himself in that position. [...]

[...] That is one point. [...]

(10:04.) In one way or another, the race played with technology through the ages, in a subsidiary manner. Almost any of your modern inventions at one time or another existed on the face of the earth in the past, in your terms. [...]

[...] In the tangled areas of time, in one way or another, messages were left from one group of civilizations to another, whether they could be read at once, or not for centuries.

One or two societies had microfilm, but microfilm needs another technological society for its interpretation, where scrawls upon a rock endure physically, to be interpreted by any onlooker.

The poles at one time were reversed. [...]

Now I do have something to say to this one (Sue W.), and that one (Jim H.), and to some extent to all of you. [...]

[...] You cannot be hounded from one level of reality to another by a fear that you do not understand. [...]

[...] What made this one person in the entire building walk out?”)

[...] No one chose for him.

(Pause at 10:20.) There is a great unity between your daytime symbols and your dreaming ones. In a miraculous shorthand, many symbols carry the burden of far more than one experience, of course, and one symbol will therefore evoke not only one given experience, but similar ones. [...]

[...] Others will be simply shapes that change swiftly and seem to flow one into the other. [...]

[...] An earlier particular fear felt during the day involving, say, a loss of a job may then be translated when you close your eyes into a series of seemingly unrelated symbols, all however connected to that one fear.

[...] Given certain sounds, you could recreate your universe as you know it unconsciously, and any one multidimensional symbol can contain all the reality that you know. [...]

[...] Any one action in your life is taken in context with all of the other events from your birth to your death. Now it seems to you that because you speak one sentence at any given time, rather than ten other possible versions of it, the sentence as spoken is the “correct” one. [...]

Here, events are connected one to the other in a psychic webwork that is far more effective than your physical technological system of communication. [...] Knowledge is received and transmitted in electromagnetic patterns so that one pattern can carry far more units of information than anything you have, technologically speaking. [...]

[...] So far, no one has interrupted us at such times, though more and more visitors are finding their ways to our door. [...]

[...] As you might change your sentence in the middle from one version to another without even being consciously aware of it, so as you live your life you also work with probabilities. [...]

If there is a class session, a long one, and if Ruburt feels tired, then the following session of my own may be a briefer one. [...]

[...] Any perception is first of all a psychic one that is then translated in ways meaningful to the physical organism. [...]

[...] As I mentioned some sessions ago, on the one hand you can say that the method involves distortion, but without the distortions there would be no meaningful knowledge for you to understand. [...]

The analogy may be a poor one in that it says so little, and yet it will be helpful in giving you the idea. [...]

[...] The physical senses can only perceive reality a little bit at a time, and so it seems to you that one moment exists, and is gone forever, and the next moment comes, and like the one before it disappears. But everything in the universe exists at one time, simultaneously, and the first words ever spoken still ring throughout the universe; and in your terms, the last words ever spoken have been said time and time again, for there is no ending and no beginning. [...]

[...] One child now the present husband, and one a very distant relative. [...]

[...] You are ready to learn about your past lives and to prepare for your future ones. [...]

(Now Jane, as Seth, pointed to Bonnie.) One I have known vaguely in my own past. [...]
