“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your own experiments in psychological time have allowed you, to some extent, to experience within yourselves such unimpeded action. [...]

[...] With these exercises you are familiar, for in your psychological time the self is momentarily in connection with its more extensive portions.

[...] Then indeed they result in explosive barrages, ranting and shouting, organic and psychological illnesses, and of unfortunate manifestations.

(From Jane’s psychological time notebook:

(The whole half-hour was a study in psychological sensation. [...]

(From my psychological time notebook:

[...] I have experienced it frequently during psychological time since then. [...]

The integration of the whole personality as a psychological unit, and as an effective psychic gestalt, is obviously dependent upon the free and unimpeded flow of action. [...]

[...] Impeding actions are easily recognized by their effects, psychological or physical, upon the human system. [...]

(Today Jane had been reading Experimental Psychology by C. G. Jung, first American edition, published by Jung’s heirs in 1968. [...]

[...] There is also something in the nature of those who practice psychology: a fascination, in many cases, already predisposed to fear the “unconscious” in direct proportion to its attraction for them.

[...] Therefore to protect yourself, to protect your subjectivity from drifting, you erect various psychological barriers at what you suppose to be the danger points. [...]

[...] If there is any point where your own consciousness seems to elude you or escape you, or if there is any point where your consciousness seems to end, then these are the points where you have yourselves set up psychological and psychic barriers, and these are precisely those areas that you should explore. [...]

[...] If you ask, “What is my individuality in all of this?” or, “Which ‘I’ am I?” then you are automatically thinking of yourself as a psychological entity with definite boundaries that must be protected at all costs. [...]

[...] Present beliefs can insert into the past new memory, both psychologically and physically. [...]

[...] You might compare the situation to someone who has been separated from a sister or brother for years — explaining, however, that the separation is psychological and not physical.

Before we return to a discussion of other physical dilemmas, we will discuss some further unusual psychological events, and their connections with conflicting beliefs.

[...] The depth of this reality can, again, be compared to the depth of a sleep or a trance, or the depth of any common psychological experience.

[...] Your psychological time experiments should go better next week.

(While trying psychological time I had the following rather mild experiences. [...]

[...] Man’s emerging ego therefore brought forth emotional and psychological problems and challenges. [...]

Man desired in one way to step out of himself, out of the framework in which he had his psychological existence, to try new challenges, to step out of a mode of consciousness into another. [...]

[...] The need, the psychological and spiritual need of the species, demanded both interior and exterior alterations of great import. [...]

This is the year 1979, and the idea of time and of dates seems to be indelibly mixed into [everyone’s] psychology. [...]

[...] To study psychology exclusively in terms of the brain’s effect upon the physical body is likewise hampering and limiting, for the brain is merely that portion of, that very small portion, of the mind which is apparent within matter. [...]

[...] Biology has made many strides, but it must finally be concerned with that intangible which is behind all organisms, and it will be forced to the initiation of an entirely new field, along the lines of basic organic psychology. [...]

[...] In your own intimate psychological experience, in the intimate psychological experience of every individual within your race, you will find recognition of the thought.

[...] If the granaries are gone, and if they provide no nourishment, then she looks to work like ours instead to provide a kind of idealized picture of human psychology. [...]

[...] This will be a relatively brief session, and again other psychological events connect the session material with your private experience as you make certain translations that are necessary quite for yourselves. [...]

[...] The probabilities with which you are not consciously concerned remain psychologically peripheral: They are there but not there, so to speak.

[...] Except for those you settle upon, all of the others will remain psychologically peripheral, in the background of your conscious experience—but all of those possible versions will be connected in one way or another.

It is as if you shared, say, a psychological planet, populated by people who had the same roots, the same ground of being — as if you shared the same continents, mountains, and oceans. [...]

1. In Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality Seth began developing his theory of counterparts — that the larger psychological self, or entity, of each of us manifests not just one physical life in any given century, say, but several, so as to gain that much more experience in a variety of roles involving different ages, nationalities and languages, sexual orientations, family roles, and so forth. [...]

Outer physical time is a complete camouflage, unnecessary basically on your plane; but you have made it seem necessary because of your refusal to admit the inner self as part of your whole personality, and therefore you have not been able to utilize psychological time to its fullest advantage on your plane. Psychological time as I have said is a natural pathway, part of an inner sense, that was meant as an easy access from the inner to the outer world and back again. [...]

[...] Even now your psychologists speak of the difference between physical time, by which you set your clocks, and psychological time.

Psychological time so-called belongs to the inner self, that is to the mind. [...]

You will I am sure see the similarity now between this inner, alone sort of psychological time, experienced very often in waking hours, and the sense of time experienced in dreams. [...]

[...] The material contained some excellent psychological insights; using them, we found ourselves getting along much better with our relatives. [...] “The psychological insights are great,” I said to Rob at break. [...]

[...] Or was the explanation psychologically and symbolically valid, but practically a lot of nonsense?

Yet within your own psychological experience you can perceive its fluid nature. [...]

A note here: Ruburt may try the psychological time experiments twenty minutes daily; and indeed yes, the time of the day should be uniform. [...]

Inner action, in terms of psychological reality, is every bit as important as physical action; more important. [...]

(I missed trying psychological time on Wed. [...]

(While trying psychological time I had the following experiences:

(Jane: 7/15, 11:30 AM: While trying psychological time I began daydreaming about the house we plan to buy. [...]

(Long pause.) The most important aspects of individuality are those subjective characteristics that on the one hand distinguish each person from the other, and that on the other hand are each like sparkling psychological mosaics, giving separate, exquisite individual versions of that larger pattern from which mankind emerges. [...]

Those questions help bring out psychological maturities and insights about the nature of the species in general. [...]

[...] In Dreams he’s already said (in Session 909) that the human species has an “amazing interplay between genetic preciseness and genetic freedom,” and (in Session 910) that “your genetic structure reacts to each thought that you have, to the state of your emotions, to your psychological climate.” [...]
