“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The sessions among other things have always represented your combined love and trust in each other, and were generated by your experience as creatures, and your desire to look for personal answers; but more basically for answers asked by all of your race.

send my legs racing

(The wind increased in intensity, blowing across the valley from the south and racing up Holley Road. Sheets of rain raced before it. [...]

(The skull is at least two hundred thousand years old, and represents a race not identified before. It is now tentatively thought that several primitive races existed in Europe at that time. [...]

[...] They were as triumphant about their descent into the earth as any race ever was who left the earth.

[...] Whether or not you realize it, your conception of the human race changes, for if you can mold another that easily then where are these fine abilities inherent in the race as a whole. [...]

[...] You trust an adversary because you cannot move him; and you think, there is a man, he will not listen to me, therefore, he must really be great, and you also feared him, and that is why you trust your enemies in a strange fashion for they convince you that a portion of the race is worth saving. [...]

[...] Those same abilities are natural characteristics of people in each race, of course, yet you have consistently made the same kind of distinctions in racial terms as you have in sexual ones, so that certain races appear as feminine or masculine to you. [...]

Male and female are each members of the human race — or species if you prefer — so these divisions were made in the species itself, by itself. [...]

In your terms that language speaks the flesh—and it speaks the flesh equally in all races of mankind. There are no inferior or superior races. [...]

The cataloging of separate races simply involves you in organizations of variances played upon a common theme—variances that you have used for various purposes. [...]

[...] Sportsmen, race-car drivers, mountain climbers—all seek suffering to one extent or another, and find the very intensity of certain kinds (underlined) of pain pleasurable. [...]

[...] Were it not for this your whole race would be in much more serious a predicament.

[...] And by reminding men of a birth and a resurrection it hints at the innate abilities of the race to transcend physical time and space.

[...] It stressed the best qualities of the race as a whole.

The race of man is far more than the physical race however. [...]

[...] And this was the first system that knew the race of man. [...]

[...] If the unconscious is no longer feared, then the races that symbolized it are no longer to be feared either.

[...] Within a nation they can be directed against those of a particular race, creed or color.

[...] At the same time all of those flamboyant, creative, spontaneous, emotional surges that emerge normally from the unconscious become feared and projected outward, then, upon enemies, other races and creeds.

The race of man is far more than the physical race, however. [...]

[...] And this was the first system that knew the race of man. [...]

[...] In your terms, the race at any given “time” simultaneously works out problems in the dream state, and those solutions are then physically materialized. [...]

(10:35.) The initial battle, so to speak, took place on a dream level, then privately and en masse the race decided which portions of the event to actualize in physical terms. [...]

[...] Here you have great freedom both individually and as a race. [...]

[...] Before that, these codes were given by a race from another star. This race had to do with the origin of Atlantis. [...]

[...] But inherent always, psychologically and biologically, there has been the possibility of a change in that pattern, an alteration that would effectively lift the race into another kind of weather.

[...] Human consciousness is now at a stage where such a development is not only feasible, but necessary if the race is to achieve its greatest fulfillment.

[...] Shared dreams present their own historic organization, for the shared memory of your race does not only include physical events, but reaches much further than this.

[...] We will take a simple example, those who are not prejudiced against those races who are kept downtrodden. [...]

[...] Full operation of inner and outer senses, you see, in your present stage of development as a race, would be blinding, as you can see in your reading of drug experiences.

[...] In greater terms the race has plans for itself; only these are based on a much vaster comprehension of the probable issues, abilities, and conditions involved. [...]

[...] When, in historic terms, the race was in the process of adopting a necessary artificial separation of itself from the rest of nature; when it needed to be assured of its abilities to do so; when it took upon itself the task of a particular kind of specialization and individual focus, it needed a religion that would assure it of its abilities.

[...] The church, however — the Roman Catholic Church — still held a repository of religious ideas and concepts that served as a bank of probabilities from which the race could draw. [...]

[...] You have been so obsessed with exterior differences, especially of color and nationality, that you have completely ignored these other far more important variations in the form that consciousness takes in relation to physical life within your race — the race of man.

[...] (Intently:) Because of the particular kind of ego-orientation that the race decided upon, however, many probabilities of development inherent in the species have been latent. [...]

I am not speaking of you personally, Joseph, so much as I am emphasizing that the race at present identifies its individual being with highly limited concepts of the self. [...]

[...] Suppose the worst, that in this life you have the following background—you are poor, you are of a minority race, you are not intellectual, you are a woman, you have a severe physical defect and you are no beauty. [...]

([Joel:] “Didn’t you say earlier, referring to the woman who was born in a minority race, that her challenges had been set up by a previous personality in our terms?”)

Now you must realize again, that we are speaking of division for convenience sake when none exists, so at the same time, so to speak, that this personality is born in a minority race, poor, etc., in a completely different era it may be born rich, secure and aristocratic. [...]

[...] They also have a liking for certain races, but again no specific rules apply. Many of the Irish, the Jews, the Spanish, and some lesser numbers of the French, for instance, are Sumari — though they appear in all races.

We may not be able to pin Seth — as that energy personality essence calls himself — down to one physical race, but he is a Sumari: “And a very high lieutenant indeed, I will have you know,” he told us with much humor in his first session on the Sumari family of consciousness, the 598th for November 24, 1971. [...]

[...] These people thought then that violence would be wiped away from the face of the earth, and they hoped to begin a race of people that would not know violence. It would seem perhaps to you, that this was a highly idealistic race and that they grew in strength and beauty, but they were not facing the issues clearly, you see. [...]

[...] If this were the case your race would not have lasted out one day. [...]
