“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] That which knows itself, which experiences itself within many forms and yet knows itself as something apart from the total of its sums, that left-over, unexplainable remnant you see, can be thought of as original action, original consciousness, prime mover, or consciousness as distinct from its own creations, of which it is also part.

If fear or resentment stops up the flow, then their origin, untranslated, unredeemed and unsublimated, causes physical symptoms and disorders. [...]

[...] His energy will then attempt to explode in other fashions, and denied this will feed on its origins and result in physical symptoms.

[...] Said she’d originally thought of it as a song, but hadn’t mentioned that to me before.)

[...] There were many factors behind the long layoff: Jane’s sheer need for rest; problems and questions of our own that we had wanted to deal with, but had put off for a long time; some work with others; a vacation; and the acquisition of several more rooms across the hall from our original apartment. [...]

[...] And yet it may seem to him that he does know, for the nature of a dogma’s origin will be explained in terms that this main character can understand. [...]

(During the break Jane read over parts of Chapter Eighteen of The Seth Material, then announced that she thought there was a contradiction, between that material — originally from the 491st session on July 2, 1969 — on the three Christs, and the information given by Seth this evening. [...]

[...] The emergence of this third personality will directly affect the original historical drama of Christ as it is now known. [...]

[...] Obviously there have been earthquakes where there are no people, but in all cases the origins are to be found in mental properties rather than exterior ones. (Pause.) Earthquakes are very often associated with periods of great social change or unrest, and from such locations the fault lines originate and are projected outward. They may then affect a generally unpopulated area on another continent, or an island, or cause a tidal wave on the other side of the world, even as a stroke might affect a portion of the body far from the original damage.

(Long pause.) The emotions connected with these bridge beliefs may indeed surprise you, but standing upon such unifying structures you are also free to let the emotional flow sweep past, feeling it, but aware for the first time, perhaps, of the origin of those feelings in your beliefs, and no longer afraid of being swept away by them.

Now such concentration is excellent if the original concept continues to expand with your experience, and of itself is not limiting to a strong degree. [...]

In the same way, if your core belief stresses your spirituality to such an extent that it cuts off needed sensual expression, then it has become restrictive and will end up strangling, even, that spiritual experience that it was originally meant to express.

(Pause.) The original belief meant that he considered his reality in mental terms, generally identifying a writer with ideas, and using his body as a vehicle rather than thinking of it as the living organism through which creaturehood experience must come. [...]

This same originality and independence that made him an extraordinary salesman, will operate even more effectively if he is in a higher position of responsibility. His individuality and originality and determination actually represent his value to the company, and they know it.

[...] His salesmanship has been the result of originality.

[...] Jane had originated this idea, and she thought there was a chance Seth might come through while we were on the property, but he did not.

[...] Indeed, according to the original Christ thesis, while a man could sin, no man was identified as a sinner. [...]

The words “Let thy will be done,” represented excellent psychological understanding, for according to Christ’s teachings as originally given, God the father represented the source or parent of the self, who was by nature free from the self’s ignorance or lack of understanding at any given time, and who would know better than the known self those experiences that would fulfill the self’s hopes, dreams, and potentials.

You both chafed against the belief of your times, that man was a natural aggressor, tainted from birth, that he was damned by his very nature, condemned by his early childhood background, by original sin, or by his genes. [...]

[...] This system spoken of earlier, the sun and original 9 planets, in your terms, have long ago passed into and formed other universal systems. The whole cosmic structure however was the materialization of one original thought, for the thought, the real reality, must always exist before the representation of it.

[...] The origin of emotions is something that we still have to discuss, for there are many origins.

Some emotions originate within the personality, but others are simply like winds that are then rationalized and held. [...]

[...] A personality may “originally” be a part of a given entity, and on its own develop interests quite different. [...] The original connection will not be severed, but new ones made and formed.

[...] This was the original motivation for it. [...]

[...] In those terms (underlined) it is for Loren a step up from, say, Sayre, whose history is richer even in “lower class” origins. Sayre, however, generally now, represented the poorer man’s version of that American ideal, and it was from there that many of your beliefs and those of your brothers had their origins. [...]

You are afraid you will be thought of as a gentleman of leisure—at the worst a moral crime most certainly in light of the beliefs that originated at the time the Protestants first abandoned the Roman Catholic Church. [...]

[...] You must liberate yourself whenever such thoughts arise to mind—not by inhibiting them but by confronting them, recognizing their origins, and realizing that you have left them intellectually behind, resolving that you will emotionally free yourself from their effects. [...]

Ruburt was correct in his introductory notes today (for Mass Events)—about the poet’s original, long-forgotten abilities, and his role. [...]

[...] The original functions of art—meaning poetry and painting here specifically—have been largely forgotten. [...]

The collection will include our family trees; my father’s journals and photographs; Jane’s and my own grade-school, high-school, college, and family data; our youthful creative efforts in writing and painting; the comic books and other commercial artwork I produced; our early published and unpublished short stories; my original notes for the sessions; session transcripts, whether published or unpublished, “regular,” private, or from ESP class; tapes, including those made in class of Jane speaking for Seth and/or singing in Sumari; our notes, dream records, journals, and manuscripts; our sketches and paintings; Jane’s extensive poetry; our business correspondence; books, contracts, and files; newsletters about the Seth material, published in the United States and abroad (independently of Jane and me); the greater number of letters from readers—in short, a mass of material showing how our separate beginnings flowed together and resulted in the production of a joint lifework.

[...] To make this possible, we’ll be transferring copies of many of our papers and tapes to the library while keeping the originals with us to work with during our lifetimes. [...]

[...] Is that an original term or use with you?

That is an original term with me, as far as I know.

[...] The church did not like that kind of questioning, and in a fashion it has always been highly suspicious of those who were too mystically inclined, for such people in their originality are not easy to lead. [...]

(Long pause at 9:02.) The Sinful Self shows itself in a period of transition from its religious to scientific format in science fiction or fantasy in particular, where you can almost trace the translation of religion’s self, tainted by original sin, to the Darwinian and Freudian concepts of the flawed self, bound to destruction one way or another, propelled by the unbridled unconscious or evolutionary defect. [...]

Ruburt’s creative abilities still had those classical models, yet because of his mind’s originality and his natural intuitive nature; those creative abilities were also fueled by unofficial information: he was always to some extent in strong connection with the knowledge possessed by his natural person—and that knowledge kept seeking expression. [...]

[...] Instead the Mediterranean area in the 1500’s, and it is from this period that his present speech impediment indeed originated.

[...] He has more than made up for the original offense, which was indeed understandable under the circumstances.

In order to rationalize, this personality and all personalities, to give to the present identity a more or less logical explanation for a symptom that is of past origin, the personality will bring forth an actual incident which can then be pointed at by the personal subconscious as a scapegoat.

[...] The panic reaction, which is true, the fear of seeing reality as it was when he was a child; but this indeed is only a symptom of a symptom, and not an origin.

[...] Yet many had already seen the snapshots sent to your world by others, and so they began to clothe their own original visions of their journeys in the guise of those other pictures. [...] Those travelers no longer tried to make their own original snapshots of the strange environments and realities through which they passed. [...]

(Pause at 9:59.) At one time these postcards represented initial original visions and individual interpretations. [...]

[...] When these become a system of order, however, the original spontaneity is lost, and you project an artificial order that serves to stratify behavior rather than to express it. [...]

(Long pause.) Once individual travelers took those snapshots, and they represented original interpretations of other realities. [...]

[...] The original prerogative is the creative one, from which all benefits automatically flow.

Science has unfortunately bound up the minds of its own even most original thinkers, for they dare not stray from certain scientific principles. [...]

[...] They know the origin of images.

[...] When this happens then following your own psychological patterns the ideas would emerge more or less naturally, with little hint of their origin, and, the individual involved could well consider them his own.
