“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] What do you have to say about this?” We don’t feel like justifying ourselves.

[...] He had much to say about how the out-of-place stresses we impose upon ourselves through our fearful projections into the future adversely affect our body consciousnesses, which are focused in the present. [...]

[...] I am doubly angry at myself when I discover a lovely kitchen and bath between this apartment and our own, since we could have used these rooms ourselves, paying extra rent for them.

[...] Perhaps Seth likes some of those other versions of ourselves more than he does us. ( I didn’t ask him if I was right, though.) It might even be that his favorite Jane inhabits one probable reality, his favorite Rob another. [...]

We also applied the counterpart ideas to ourselves. [...]

We will not involve ourselves with any deep and weighty matters this evening, and you may slow me down, Joseph, when you prefer. [...]

[...] It will show expansions in the manner in which we allow ourselves to operate. [...]

[...] Even so, I think, ultimately we come to understand, whether on conscious or unconscious levels — or both — that we were utterly ourselves while learning along the way.

This private probability
isn’t half bad
when you consider
the public worlds
we had to travel
to get here:
molecules waiting
in the wings,
looking for
the precise
time-space
to leap into,
tiny strands of
consciousness
reuniting
after centuries,
sorting out ourselves
from a million
other forms
we’ve taken part in—
reassembling
just those we wanted
to call Rob and Jane.

[...] As he spoke about latent potentials, we found ourselves discovering our own. [...]

[...] We start with ourselves and travel through our own subjective experience, working from the ego inward. [...]

[...] What is there about ourselves, or time, that we can disconnect one from the other? [...]

[...] They were her way of contributing to understanding ourselves, and to peer into the great mystery of All That Is.

[...] (Danny.) We must get out of ourselves and with a new horizon of reality. [...]

[...] Jane said Seth gave this bit of test data because we ourselves had had trouble making a nearby steep hill in our own car, also this month. [...]

[...] However we shall gracefully dismiss ourselves. [...]

[...] “Well, once again we find ourselves at odds with society,” I said to Jane as we talked. [...] I don’t know whether to get mad at our friends, or ourselves, or both.” [...]

(At times Jane wakes me up at night; she’s very nearly crying in discomfort, yet now we understand that those feelings represent her muscles wanting to be used; so far, though, we haven’t managed to get ourselves out of bed at such times, which usually develop perhaps an hour before the alarm is to ring; these bouts, then, happen after she’s usually slept for several hours, and the body wants action. [...]

[...] After Jane and I had been discussing whether to ask Seth about people other than ourselves.)

[...] They’d all found out our anniversary date through the holiday talk, and knew we hadn’t done anything ourselves to celebrate it. [...]

[...] It means that we must allow ourselves greater flexibility, look into ourselves, admit the fears and release the energy used in repression. [...]

[...] Seth maintains that we will understand ourselves as dreamers only if we are also aware of the larger environment in which dreams take place, that we interact in the dream state as we do in the waking one and that we form mass dream events as we form physical events on a mass basis.

Jane and I live our physical lives on mundane levels, though, as everyone else does, so it’s inevitable that we often find ourselves meeting our daily challenges within those frameworks. We practice one big difference, however—for we hold within ourselves Seth’s ideas on a host of subjects. [...]

[...] What we choose to do with those possibilities that we present ourselves with at each temporal birth may be another matter entirely.

Then beyond those human-oriented parameters must lie a host of probable realities involving changes in psychic and physical form: nonhuman aspects of ourselves that in ordinary terms we’d have great difficulty relating to. [...]

([Gene]: “We must love them for they are ourselves.”)

[...] How cruel we could be to ourselves, I thought, and this reminded me of my old questions about why the body consciousness itself didn’t just rebel at times and refuse to let itself be so beaten down by erroneous beliefs. [...]

For ourselves, and even considering Seth’s concept of “camouflage” (in Volume 1, see Note 3 for Appendix 11), Jane and I certainly believe that our physical existences and mental experiences are quite “real” in themselves. [...]
