“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The physical body is the material construction of the entity’s idea of itself under the properties of matter.

Aging is the effect upon an idea construction of the properties of matter of which the construction is composed.

Growth is the formation of an idea construction toward its fullest possible materialization following the properties of matter.

[...] Memories are properties of the subconscious energy entity and, as such, are indestructible (though they may be unavailable to the individual under various circumstances).

[...] These combine what you diversify, so that you have hidden psychological values or psychological beings that combine the properties of the environment and the properties of selfhood in other combinations than those you know.

[...] It is not simply that they communicate with you, or you with them, so much as it is that in sleep the conventional properties that you have learned are somewhat loosened and abandoned. [...]

[...] You can express the location of objects in space, and you can communicate to others in a similar fashion, confirming the physical, obvious properties that others also perceive.

[...] I am couching all of this in terms of your world’s known reality, which means that I am dealing with the local properties of Framework 2 as they have impact in your experience.

Having determined upon physical reality as a dimension in which it will express itself, the inner self, first of all, takes care to form and maintain the physical basis upon which all else must depend—the properties of earth that can be called natural ones. [...]

With the natural structures formed and maintained, other secondary physical properties—secondary constructions—are projected. [...]

[...] Thought, for example, has properties that you do not perceive—properties that not only affect matter, but that form their own greater patterns outside of your reality. [...]

[...] In your world light has certain properties and limits. [...]

[...] We will therefore momentarily suspend our discussion on the properties of matter, although we will shortly continue along the lines of primary and secondary constructions.

(For the record, let it be added that although we did go out for beer, we first took John up to the house we plan to buy for a quick inspection of the property. [...]

[...] 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.

[...] As the physical properties of the earth distribute themselves in a certain given fashion about the surface of the planet, so do the properties of the earth-tuned psyches distribute themselves. [...]

“… the inner senses of the tree have a strong affinity with the properties of the earth itself. [...]

[...] The body, as explained in this chapter, also has “invisible” counterparts composed of the electromagnetic properties and the interior sound and light qualities.

[...] The general framework, properties and characteristics of the body exist, therefore, before its formation. [...]

[...] In a fashion this involved old Christian principles, of course, as pure socialism does—so that a man shared his goods with his fellows, and all land belonged to the people, so that private property—in those terms—would not exist.

[...] And what good was the most equitable arrangement of land or property, of food or goods, if the ordinary worker was still somehow basically discontented?

[...] They consider ideas as completely mental properties, separate from their concept of the body. [...]

(Remember always that what you are seeking is also seeking you, and whenever you want to sell a property of any kind, there is always someone who wants what you have to offer. [...]

[...] They formed themselves at Mark’s instigation into a gestalt of physical construction; but the gestalt could not operate consistently or endure for any amount of physical time, in your field, because of the absence here of the greater data which is the property of the whole self, in its construction of a completed human form. [...]

(“I like the trees out there, on the property.”)

Because of the particular nature of the water, which contains some particular mineral properties because of the rock formation.

[...] But the growth, so-called, is not of itself a property of matter, in that the same matter does not grow, but energy completely forms the pattern ever anew, as far as the particular strength of the energy itself can carry it, and knowing the limitations and capacities of the pattern which it has formed. [...]

What your senses show to be empty, you term space, and you think of matter rather paradoxically as filling up space, and yet as being where space is not, so-called space and so-called material are energy, and the true properties of energy are very difficult to explain to you, because all your concepts are so limited.

[...] (Pause.) The cell’s stability, and its reliability in the bodily environment, is dependent upon its innate properties of instant communication and instant decision, for each cell is in communication with all others and is united with all others through fields of consciousness,³ in which each entity of whatever degree plays a part.

Mental enzymes belong to the mind rather than the brain, although they function through both and use chemical properties of the physical body in their operation.

[...] As far as Jane’s or Ruburt’s subconscious is concerned, I make contact with you through both of your subconsciousnesses (Jane’s pronunciation); but through that larger portion which actually exists between planes, which is the property of the mind, not the brain, and which deals with the inner senses. [...]

Mental enzymes are actually the property of the inner world, representing the conversion of vitality into camouflage data which is then interpreted by the outer senses. [...]

[...] In those terms the body works with physical properties — though again these properties, as discussed often, have their own consciousnesses and realities.

Having determined upon physical reality as a dimension in which it will project itself, the inner self therefore first of all takes care to form and maintain the physical basis upon which all else must depend—those physical properties of earth that can be called natural ones.

With the natural structures formed and maintained, other physical secondary properties, secondary constructions, are projected. [...]

The hill property represents a certain kind of security, then — financial, spiritual, and artistic — but an open security, in which there is relative privacy without an overemphasis upon secrecy, which is something different.

[...] We soon became acquainted with him and his family on a very casual basis, since the back of his property abuts the west yard of the apartment house. [...]

[...] When images of survival personalities appear, they must also utilize such properties.

[...] If I were, additional protein and chemical properties would be needed from Ruburt. [...]

As I have certainly hinted, the body is a miraculous organism, and you have barely learned the most simple of its structures.¹ You do not understand the properties of soul or body, yet the body was given to you so that you could learn from it. The properties of the earth are meant to lead you into the nature of the soul. [...]
