“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] You do not age, for example, although this effect varies according to certain principles. [...]

4. A note added some eight months later: Once in a great while Seth refers to the slower rate of physical aging connected with the out-of-body state, and notes the “certain principles” involved, as he does here. [...]

[...] Atoms and molecules and planets and these electromagnetic energy units are simply different manifestations of the same principles that bring the units themselves into being. [...]

[...] I need and needed an intellect through which I could work so that our basic principles could be understood by those who were intellectually inclined. [...]

[...] The means, however, have helped erode that ideal, and the public interpretation of Darwin’s principles was, quite unfortunately, transferred to the economic area, and to the image of man as a political animal.

Consciously Ruburt can learn to note various circumstances that seem to facilitate or inhibit his abilities, and our communications, but the abilities themselves develop in accordance with unconscious principles. I can take advantage of these principles, and to some extent use them, but I cannot ignore them.

I am obviously also directed by my own unconscious, for there is always a principle that does not become conscious. [...]

[...] Your environment is creative in that trees bear fruit, that there is a self-sustaining principle, that the earth feeds its own, for example. [...]

[...] They will not seem to follow many scientific principles. [...]

The birth principle is also here on your parts, not mine, in that the sessions involve a projection into a reality that is largely new, and a birth on your parts, you see. [...]

[...] There is no strongly organizing principle behind it. [...]

[...] Now a whole new uniting principle has been realized by the spontaneous self, but little attempt was made to enlarge the definitions of good on the part of the overly conscientious self.

The soul, however, does not need to follow the laws and principles that are a part of the physical reality, and it does not depend upon physical perception. [...]

[...] Eastern religions are the only ones that even remotely try to approach such a principle, and they do so in highly distorted fashions. [...]

[...] It is true it must be interpreted in many cases so that it may seem to you that it exists as some sort of isolated principle, ultimately. [...]

[...] This can be an advantageous way of understanding certain principles—and I may have well hinted of such analogies myself. [...]

[...] If the old unifying system of personality has broken down, the illness, serving as a makeshift, temporary emergency measure may hold the integrity of the personality intact until a new constructive, unifying principle replaces the original.

[...] … Even then, without knowing all the facts you could not make a judgment, for the illness could still serve by giving the personality a sense of security, being kept on hand as an ever-present emergency device in case the new unifying principle should fail.

Unifying principles are groups of actions about which the whole personality forms itself at any given time. [...]

When you are dealing with inner, or basically nonphysical environments, you must again become unspecialized, and then learn a new set of principles. [...]

[...] They will not seem to follow many scientific principles. [...]

We must therefore apply the principles of which I have spoken outward from the individual to the environment and the historical sequence which he has himself formed. [...]

Those principles which I gave you as applying to the individual must obviously apply to nations and to peoples. [...]

This may not be a very apt analogy, but the principles are sound behind the analogy. [...]
