“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] In Personal Reality I stressed many of these points for our readers, but you yourselves forget to apply them in that one important area of your lives. [...] The point of power is in the present, and when you believe changes can occur, they do indeed happen.

You took one small but important area—one that bothered him deeply, and frightened him; narrowed it down, so to speak, pointed out a simple but effective method of operation to be followed. [...]

[...] The larger point is that you believed, each of you, that change in that particular area was possible. [...]

According to the particular case in point, the therapist should then try to point out the errors of thought and belief involved, and also to explain their more or less habitual cast.

[...] I was not aware of any sharp point of transition. As soon as I did become aware that a change in her state had taken place I began to ask more pointed questions. [...]

[...] I have notes on the proceedings, and will include them in the record should Seth ever discuss them at some point in the future. [...]

There is no point in time as you know it, when the self is born. [...]

[...] For practical considerations, and to reduce the amount of data that need concern the self, rather arbitrary divisions are set up, where the self at one point is said to exist and at another is considered nonself.

[...] As I mentioned earlier I am extremely leery about trying to get predictions through to you, and therefore at this point I do not try. [...]

The reason is rather simple and in fact quite understandable; and the point here is that Ruburt cannot use conscious caution in these matters in any manner. [...]

[...] Of course, at this point you cannot prove the main thesis of the important material which is not distorted.

[...] There is nothing in his physical makeup to prevent the physical journey, but the point, if you’ll excuse the pun, is pointless. [...]

[...] You are, then, using your point of power to affect your world—a point you should each remember.

Now: there was a point I wanted to make.

[...] I am exaggerating somewhat to make an important point. [...]

[...] You must convince yourselves that the point of power is now, in all regards.

These figures can hardly be definitive in any sense, however; they’re meant only to point out some interesting directions for study, involving groups and the various families of consciousness to which their members may belong. [...] From that point on, the figures can be assembled and interpreted in different ways. [...] Seth hasn’t pointed out every Sumari in class; some have strong feelings about belonging to that family of consciousness, but others don’t.

(“I’m at the point now where I know what Seth’s going to talk about,” “Jane said a few minutes before the session began. [...]

“The point is that I am not impersonal any more than you are, in those terms, and in those same terms the Sumari are also individual and to that extent personal. [...]

Now there are points of difference indeed in fourth-dimensional reality for you, as there are points of reference in objective reality.

[...] You have both occasionally learned to take our waking consciousness into the dream state, and here Fox is correct, for you must start at this point.

[...] Each of them therefore constructs, you see, the dream location at which they have agreed to meet, a point not thought of by Ruburt’s Mr. Fox.

This is indeed an important point.

[...] We thought the session was over at this point, but Seth did return a minute later for a little more material related to the body of tonight’s session. [...]

3. I’m mad at Prentice for various reasons, while not being blind to their good points.

[...] A person “cured” of bad symptoms then through conventional medicine might actually be interrupting a natural movement toward a larger overall health, by dismissing the particular annoying symptoms that serve as chosen reference points.

[...] The symptoms would be used as exterior reference points while the other conditions at which they hinted were studied. [...]

Your reality is at every point, again, a perfect replica of your inner wishes and expectations. [...]

[...] I wanted to make a few additional points. [...] The main point is a good one to remember, however. [...]

[...] (A very good point.)

In the framework of the Sinful Self’s points of reference and in the Catholic philosophy in which it is based, suffering for a good purpose, toward a good end, toward a good goal for the sake of the soul, is a virtue. [...]

At that level environment, creatures, and the elements of the natural world are all united—a point we will return to quite often. [...]

[...] We will later discuss the part of the mind and its interpretation, for example, of painful stimuli, but I want to make the point that those attracted to physical life are first and foremost tasters of sensation. [...]

All That Is, therefore, is immersed within your world, present in each hypothetical point, and forms the very fabric from which each portion of matter is created.

A smaller point I thought I would throw in: My energy is often with you both in ways that you do not expect. [...]

[...] Probabilities intersect at each point with your time, and those probabilities are psychologically directed so that, in your terms once again, he is at an excellent intersection point, where the prognosis is excellent. [...]

3. Seth’s material in this paragraph reminded me at once of Jane’s own early, intuitive concept of the moment point. [...] I wrote that at the age of 25, nine years before initiating the sessions, Jane expressed the moment point in her poem, “More Than Men.” [...]

[...] There is an interesting point connected with the necessity to coordinate the workings of the senses, in that before this process occurs there is no rigid placement of events. [...]

[...] I am speaking specifically of the brain, as separated from the mind, to emphasize the point that these abilities are of creaturehood. [...]

[...] As you fall to sleep, imagine that you are in the same place, exactly in the same spot, but at some point in the distant past or future. [...]

I mention this here simply to point out the similarity between some dreams and some children’s games, and to show that all dreams and all games are intimately involved with the creation and experience of events.

[...] I do not see any point in informing him, because of the suggestions involved. Probabilities do operate, but I do sense this rather strongly, as if many probabilities pointed in this direction. [...]

[...] For your private information, middle or late March… I do not know whether this is the woman’s death (open eyes, pointing at me), but it is an event involving death of a woman (gestures) close to the wife, you see?

(Instead of answering the question at once, Jane pointed to the sculp, hanging above me as I sat on the couch.)

3. A note added later: I found most of the material Seth had delivered since 10:11, but especially at this point, to be strongly reminiscent of a passage in the 657th session in Chapter 15 of Personal Reality. I’ve put together these excerpts from that session: “Each of your reincarnational selves has its own ‘points of power,’ or successive moments, in which it materializes daily existence in a linear manner from all the probabilities available to it. In a way that will be explained in another book, there is a kind of coincidence with all of these present points of power that exists between you and your ‘reincarnational’ selves. There is a constant interaction in this multidimensional point of power, therefore, so that in your terms, one incarnated self draws from all of the others what abilities it wants. [...]

Jane and I placed no particular emphasis upon this information when Seth came through with it, but in retrospect we realized that it contains two significant points: Seth’s reference to “another book,” which we think is “Unknown” Reality, and his use of the word “counterparts.” [...] (Although not bringing up his ideas of reincarnation or points of power in the 683rd session, Seth implied both of those qualities in many parts of that material.)

The point of all this is that these units are unpredictable, and fulfill all probabilities of consciousness. [...]

[...] And since we cannot cover everything I suggest that we discuss these points first.

[...] You cannot afford to satisfy it at this point to a large degree, and in any case your desire for land would have to be completely allowed to dominate all other considerations, to be completely satisfied.

[...] First of all however, one small point. [...]

[...] However as far as sleep is concerned alone, he would sleep best in the back room or the front room, neither of which I believe is practical at this point. [...]

[...] There will always be such points, but your existences that you are aware of, feelings; and that itself is vitality and strength and within the feelings themselves there is creativity and the feelings spur you on. Now you can feel them free, recognize them, allow them their legitimate nature at this point in your reality and then use them. [...]

Now there are relationships still to be worked out among you, and I will point them out. [...] These are the main areas at this point. [...]

[...] You are attempting to sidestep in those methods the basic vehicle of your experience at this point. [...]

[...] The other two were points 4 and 5, as listed in the notes preceding this session; since Jane became consciously aware of material on them just before the session began, she’d had no time in which to give it. [...] It didn’t take long: Out of those very interesting ideas he’d mentioned in class last night, Seth ended up discussing the one I’ve noted as point 5.

[...] Seth covered many interesting points, and [I can add later] Jane presents the entire session in slightly abbreviated form in Chapter 15 of Politics. [...]

(We discussed points 4 and 5 while waiting for the session to begin this evening. [...]

5. Point 5 at the start of this session contains my note that later I added to Appendix 18 a few of the comments Seth made in last night’s ESP class, concerning his connections with Jane. [...]

8. See the quotations from Seth about the moment point in Note 11 for Appendix 12. One of the references also included in that note can be traced back to his material on reincarnation, moment points, and dreams in the 668th session for Chapter 19 of Personal Reality.

(She enjoyed the exchange a great deal, she made sketches while speaking on such subjects as the many facets of the electron and its behavior; time and its variations; gravity, its changes with motion, and its attributes in the past, present, and future; the velocities of light; mathematical equations; astronomy, including perceptions by telescope of the future as well as of the past; the structure of the earth’s core; earthquakes and “black” sound/light; language, including glossolalia and her own Sumari; pyramids, coordination points, and so forth. [...]

[...] At this point you will understand the fact that the play, while seeming quite real, is to a certain extent hallucinatory. [...]

[...] There is no point where an end to it need appear.
