“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

These counterparts are psychic relationships, formations that in the deepest terms flow into historic time and out of it. [...] Others represent psychic encounters that happen between two individuals at several points, say, but are not continuous. [...]

[...] You do share psychic memories, and hold in common the memories of other selves who did live in the time of the Roman-soldier incident.

Many people write requesting that I outline the proper methods for achieving astral projection, for example, or psychic advancement, or spiritual understanding. [...] Instead, “psychic progress” is hampered by those very negative beliefs that we have tried to bring to your attention.

Dictation: It may seem to some readers that the subject matter of this book (pause) is far divorced from any discussion of the specific development of psychic abilities.

[...] Spiritual knowledge and psychic wisdom are the natural result of a sense of self-unity.

[...] Your own impulses naturally lead you to seek creative fulfillment, the expansion of your consciousness, psychic excursions, and the conscious knowledge and manipulation of your dreams.

[...] When Ruburt’s psychic abilities began to show themselves, however, those same beliefs made both of you even more cautious than before, and more worried about reprisal from others — and as far as Ruburt was concerned, more worried about criticism or scorn. [...] Ruburt felt some guilt in expressing psychic abilities in such a marked fashion, when it seemed that the male of the relationship should be the most highly talented, and by far the most successful financially (intently). So your roles in that manner upset both of you at times.

(4:40.) Ruburt, at one period, even feared that the young psychologist at Oswego was correct — that his psychic abilities were mere attempts to prove himself superior to you.^* These are all beliefs that both of you have wrestled with over the years. [...]

(Long pause.) The effect of those old negative beliefs, however, was stronger in Ruburt than in yourself, for he certainly thought at one time that if he curtailed physical motion people would not attack him for his amazing psychic and mental motion. [...]

[...] Then he began to learn the lessons that were needed — that life is expression, and that it is safe for him to move mentally and physically, using both his psychic, creative, mental and physical abilities to their fullest.

[...] It represents the psychic, mass bank of potential, even as the planet provides a physical bank of potential. [...] When there are psychic earthquakes in other areas of the world, then you are also affected, and usually to the same degree.

[...] Two days ago, she worked on our new front porch for the first time; she sat in the slanting sunlight and wrote down the information she psychically picked up from the “world view” of William James, the American psychologist and philosopher who lived from 1842–1910. [...]

[...] The body is a spiritual, psychic, and social statement, biologically spoken. [...]

[...] Behind all of this lies a biological and psychic cooperative venture. [...]

[...] Psychic and spiritual peaks are experienced by those in the room during such sessions, and the subjective experience of the students can then be used by them as a reminder of moments of psychic understanding that they seldom achieve.

[...] The book that you have just received from Prentice (Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain), will have an important effect upon Ruburt, and a beneficial one, helping to increase his confidence in his own abilities.

Often you can help each other quite effectively, direct your energies toward the other, and bypass those impediments that help prevent you from using your own psychic energy as well as you should in your own behalf; so that you can help Ruburt in some areas where he is weak, and he can help you in some areas where you are weak. [...]

[...] They were psychically adding to the unfortunate circumstances over which they argued, and both equally were at fault for this reason. A battle recreated in the mind reinforces the original psychic explosion and contemplation of war helps project that disaster into the future. [...]

[...] They are psychic exchanges. [...]

[...] I thought it interesting that as I was completing work for Jane’s first book on aspect psychology, she was starting Psychic Politics, the second one in the series. [...]

[...] One is probably just the state of Jane’s recent exceptional psychic receptivity. [...]

[...] She’d already done some writing yesterday, for Psychic Politics, leading toward this view⁵; so whatever we learned through Seth this evening, we already felt reasonably sure that in usual trite terms Jane hadn’t been communicating directly with two such famous personalities. [...]

Ruburt has been working with alterations of consciousness (for Psychic Politics), and wondering about the basic validity of religion. [...]

[...] Her present impaired condition is certainly generating powerful physical and psychic conflicts and challenges, and it’s my personal assessment that she’s dealing with these in her own unique way. [...]

[...] I don’t mean that physical or psychic healings, for example, can’t or won’t take place “this time around,” but that if they do happen they too will be deeply connected with those overall, much broader patterns of our lives. [...]

[...] But without dwelling upon them too heavily, I may consider the notion of my larger, nonphysical “whole self” or “entity” being made up of a number of other psychically related physical selves projected into time. [...]

[...] I think that when they blithely talk about having lived other lives people forget that those living before were—are—fully independent creatures, even if they are psychically related to others. [...]

[...] Ruburt saw himself as a writer, and not as a psychic. He knew intuitively that he was a psychic. [...]

[...] His mother’s colorful, emphatic and mystical characteristics gave him incentive, and generated mental and psychic activity. [...]

The psychic abilities appeared precisely when he needed an extra drive toward success, and a way toward success that would not be instantly recognized as such.

You both became involved in the psychic work. [...]

[...] Ruburt did overemphasize his critical faculties this evening, yet he was psychically alert.

[...] There is a flowing of energy, of psychic energy, from the sitters, that does indeed affect and alter that molecular construction of the table. [...]

[...] (Pause.) Such objects may be moved without the help of any survival personality however, by the concentrated focus of psychic energy on the part of one or several individuals.

[...] This has nothing to do with weight or size, but to the psychic connections that have built up about the object. [...]

We have already spoken of psychic constructions, and we have said that physical shapes are built upon inner psychic frameworks. [...]

[...] It is the framework for his physical constructions, and more than atoms and molecules it represents the psychic building blocks from which his constructions will be erected.

As physical objects can be manipulated, so can the emotions be manipulated, so can they be combined into various shapes and psychic constructions. [...]

[...] The emotions are to be used and enjoyed as psychic building blocks. [...]

The whole psychic framework is against the Catholic training. [...]

[...] If he gives himself emotional and psychic freedom, then to compensate he will deny himself physical freedom. [...]

I was enough like his Father Traynor to be safe, and without me his psychic abilities would not have matured at all. [...]

[...] These two warring elements are deeply bound up in psychic work because they were deeply bound up early in religious and mystic connotations in Catholic upbringing.

As you both suppose, enough constructive psychic energy is generated during the holiday season to recharge psychic batteries, so to speak, for quite some time. [...]

(Seth has dealt with psychic gestalts, religion, the Crucifixion, beginnings and endings, etc., under the general heading of the God concept, at various times. [...]

The legend of Christ is of great psychic import however, and is intrinsically true. [...]

[...] For the individual is part of All That Is, and therefore partakes of the abilities of the psychic gestalts of which we have so sketchily spoken.

There have been changes in the past month, extremely important in his mental and spiritual condition, and along with this the release of mental and psychic energies, and healthy concentration in all areas of his work, with reasonable and optimistic plans for the future. [...]

[...] The change for the better in your personal, physical and psychic relationship with Ruburt was a necessity for your joint out of body partnership.

[...] The psychic work will pick up, and indeed already has. [...]

One other small point: Ruburt should continue the psychic and sensual contact with his body, listening to the messages that it gives him. [...]

[...] He comes through as an extremely attractive, highly intelligent young woman, with strong psychic and creative abilities, unusual insight into the problems of others—as a writer, a psychic, and as “the mistress” of a delightful establishment.

When he is in error he sees himself as an old hag, overly cautious with his psychic work, knocks himself over the head for not being freer about it, distrusts it, knocks himself over the head for distrusting it, fearful of emotional expression. [...]

[...] Retracing (in answer to my question at break) will not occur in any predetermined rigid manner, as it has been described unless there is a psychic or mental return to the mental patterns that caused the difficulties to begin with. [...]

They are minimal if the individual is progressing at a psychic level. [...]

[...] They intertwine, not only through the psychic organization that I have given to “Unknown” Reality, but because of the great uniting nature within the consciousness of each reader.

[...] Reading it, each person sets out upon a psychic pilgrimage through the unknown realities of his or her own consciousness and experience. [...]

[...] But she’s so creative that as soon as she is through with one undertaking she’s ready to launch into another; and this applies even though she’s been working on Psychic Politics outside of the Seth framework. [...]

[...] With the arrival of warmer weather we did take an occasional break from psychic work, but for the most part the sessions were held regularly even though Seth was through with “Unknown” Reality. Some of them were private, but Seth also covered a number of interesting topics of a more general nature — material we’d like to see published eventually. [...]

Now there are ways you are not using that will enable you to take advantage of that psychic and psychological gestalt formed by the two of you. Joint psychic endeavors should be very successful and help you both develop your abilities further. [...]

[...] They in turn set up a supportive psychic atmosphere that adds to Ruburt’s well-being.

The book he is writing now is merely a beginning, and an excellent one, the act of faith from which other developments in your own psychic lives will grow. [...]

The psychic connections are indeed sexual ones, but interwound so deeply in your minds that the physical materialization of them is secondary. [...]

(2. I found myself wondering if my own attitudes might have strongly influenced Jane’s early psychic behavior in ways neither of us suspected—that she may have inhibited certain elements of her abilities because she feared my own ideas about distractions, time, failure, etc. Perhaps, Jane had wanted more physical and psychic activity all along, I thought—more tours, TV, publicity, fame, money, whatever—but all those things she held back on because of my own negative attitudes. [...]

[...] Creativity is a kind of psychic play, an exploration of reality, and an individual reinterpretation of it, and of the events of Framework 1. The artist might need to know technique and certain methods, and so forth. [...]

[...] The initiation of psychic experience deepened that feeling. [...]

These psychic entities are real, however. [...]

(9:05.) Psychic or psychological identification is of great import here and is indeed at the heart of all such dramas. [...]

The third personality of Christ will indeed be known as a great psychic, for it is he who will teach humanity to use those inner senses that alone make true spirituality possible. [...]

[...] Each was highly gifted psychically, knew of his role, and accepted it willingly. [...]

(“How much of a part is Jane’s past-life misuse of her psychic abilities playing in this life?”)

It is Ruburt’s nature you see to accept heartily or to disagree heartily, to plunge headlong into, or to run from, and the psychic developments made it impossible for him to do either; or rather his reactions made wholehearted acceptance or rejection impossible. [...]

He does not realize the full strength of his psychic acquiescence, you see, which is far superior to his egotistical half-denials.
