“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Long pause at 9:49.) In a way, the external politics of the situation within your country is helping Ruburt to understand his own position far better than he did earlier. [...]

You have definite signs of the body’s overall positive response: the arms are straighter, the feet stronger, the ankles more flexible, and overall adjustments are constantly being made. [...]

There is considerable experimentation on the body’s part when he sleeps, and it does try out positions that as yet he does not take when waking. [...]

[...] He would be forcing you into a position that you were avoiding with all your might, regardless of what you said. [...]

[...] He should have cried quite honestly in front of you, and you should have then tried to reassure him of those positive elements of his appearance.

[...] He purposely put himself in a position where the physical was stressed. [...]

[...] Energy is active, positive, propelled by what can almost be called an instantaneous pleasure with itself and its characteristics.

[...] My astral body was in the same approximate position, perhaps six inches above. [...]

[...] (If I’d just accepted the wall’s position as ‘one of those things,’ I would have lost my critical awareness.) I decided that it might be better to go back into my body and try over.

I found myself then in my astral body above my physical one, but in reversed position. [...]

[...] It changed position, lying on its back. [...]

[...] So you are always in a position of ignoring such changes. [...]

(11:05 P.M. See the 519th session, in which Seth suggests that Jane try turning our bed to a north-south position. [...]

[...] They are seeking for a positive cause to rally about, but their beliefs and self-deceptions make this impossible.

[...] Now when you act, as when at various times you encountered Prentice with definite complaints, or requests, there you were making a positive response to a specific condition, with good results.

[...] At Ruburt’s last visit to your dentist, both of you decided that his position was embarrassing, that it put you both in a bad light, that his condition spoke of invisible defects. [...]

[...] The body wants to get up and move—either that, or a brief massage–but mainly the realization of the body’s positive activity will help bring the discomfort to a halt.

At the same time, he was to be denied his rightful place as a writer (as I’d said earlier), to defend this new position—a position moreover that seemed to change all the time—for beside my books there was Seven, Sumari, and later Cézanne and James. [...]

This is because his position is unique, in that he is dealing in areas that serve as thresholds, where ordinary creativity is accelerated and goes beyond itself, where fact turns into fiction, and fiction into fact. [...]

Then he contrasted his present position against the idealized desired one, all of which served to lower his mood, and intensify his susceptibility to the heat, chair pressure, and so forth.

[...] Briefly and very simply, Seth maintains that Framework 2, or inner reality, contains the creative source from which we form all events, and that by the proper focusing of attention we can draw from that vast subjective medium everything we need for a constructive, positive life in Framework 1, or physical reality.”

[...] Constructive or ‘positive’ feelings or thoughts are more easily materialized than ‘negative’ ones because they are in keeping with Framework 2’s characteristics.”

The ego feared for its position, frightened that it would dissolve back into the inner self from which it came. [...] In your terms, by the time of Christ, the ego was sure enough of its position so that the projected picture of God could begin to change.

[...] At no time will any church find itself in a position in which it can effectively curtail the inner experience of its members — it will only seem to do so. [...]

(I thought the dream was another very positive one, and meant that Jane and I have left behind the old dead beliefs represented by Del. [...]

(Jane also had a very positive dream last night. [...]

(Again a very quiet, positive, emphatic delivery for the nest few paragraphs. [...]

[...] She resumed this position now at 10:46.)

[...] Such projects were carried out with great consideration for their position between various coordination points.

[...] She walked over to the spot most positively. [...]

[...] Controlled Environments, and Positive and Negative Mass Behavior.’” I told her I thought Seth would not only have plenty of time to cover our respective questions, but would come through with some book work too, and this was the case.

[...] You may then purposefully (leaning forward, quietly emphatic but with some amusement) put yourself in a position of weakness, while all of the time claiming that you seek influence. [...]

When no effort is made now and then to encounter strangers, or guests of that nature, in any position of relative authority, then Ruburt does not question his feelings or beliefs directly. [...]

This does not mean of course that you must helter-skelter have a burst of interviews of visitors—but after three or four encounters with people of any supposed authority, Ruburt is then in a position to make new decisions on such matters, based on current knowledge and his own preferences: and he will no longer avoid such adventures out of fear.

[...] The whole self, or the whole wheel, is composed of many selves in various positions, as the many people who sit on the Ferris wheel. [...]

[...] He is in a strange position, in that he is an overall self, composed in part of the sum of these other selves, and yet more than the sum.

[...] She pressed it to her forehead in a horizontal position. [...]

[...] Because of her walking difficulties she’d stayed in her office chair, which is on wheels, and pushed the sliding glass door wide open from that position. [...]

[...] See Note 2 for that session, in Chapter 4, wherein I wrote that as a physical principle the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics “sets definite limits to the accuracy possible in measuring both the motion and position of atoms and elementary particles simultaneously,” and that “there is an interaction between the observer (with his instruments) and the object or quality being measured.”

Here in Dreams Seth uses the uncertainty principle as an analogy (and an excellent one), meaning that as the positions and motions of elementary particles, say, cannot be simultaneously measured precisely, so our genetic qualities and their motions can not always be specifically determined. [...]

He should use large, general suggestions of a positive nature that do not concentrate upon details that do not automatically give rise to contradictions with present behavior. [...]

[...] There, however, he was in his situation, saying “Well, I can do it, though it may be difficult,” then leading up to “Well, perhaps, since I know I can do it, I will then be able to do it easier”—needless thought steps to your position.

“I can think more creatively and positively in all areas of my life. [...]

[...] For fifteen minutes a day agree to suspend critical judgment, and following the Maltz method imagine yourself vividly in the position you would like to be. [...]

(“Why can’t his positive attitude override my poor one then?”)

Now, from your own experience, when Ruburt and you are in a condition of positive love, you see, do you sense the inner feeling of abundance?

In the case of criminals and their belief systems, aggression has a positive value. [...]
