“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

—I will tell you. First of all there is no need feeling resentful. You knew the rent was going to be raised, and you wanted it raised. You wanted it raised because you were ready to change your environment, but not ready enough to move on your own, without the additional impetus.

The resentment felt by the tenants was picked up by her, and felt as a threat. If everyone moved out she would have to force the issue with her advisers. Her advisers have told her to raise rents, since they handle her estate and money. She means well enough but in her insecurity she believes them when they tell her that she would be a fool for not raising rents. Money does mean security to her. She has no other and this does play into their hands.

You said often enough to yourself: “I’d move if the rent were raised.” That is one point. The raise was meant to be used as an aid. Now this does not mean that your landlady knew this, but in a way she did, for all of your intentions were subconsciously taken into consideration when such a decision was made.

(The lawyer’s apartment downstairs front presents another problem. According to the above his rent was raised. Today Jane learned that his rent has not been raised, peculiarly enough, as of today, June 5. The lawyer never lived in the apartment, for whatever reasons of his own. Now however he has allowed a friend of ours to move in for the summer. Perhaps time will tell how much rent she ultimately must pay ...)

[...] It was; it did confirm that he had been given a raise by the company. The raise was totally unexpected, he told us. [...]

[...] He felt that mail awaited him, that the letter was from his district manager, and that it concerned a raise for him. [...]

Now in the affair of the raise, you picked this up, Philip, first of all telepathically from the mind of your superior. [...]

[...] John clashed with his superior at the meeting, and because of his outspoken actions had no thought of getting a raise.)

[...] Most of the time Jane sat with her head down and her hands raised to her face, as during the Instream and envelope tests.

[...] She sat with her head down and her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

(Jane, still sitting with her hands raised to her closed eyes, took a long pause. [...]

[...] Much of the time she sat with her head down and her hands raised to her temples. [...]

(Jane had been able to rotate and raise and lower her arms just as well this afternoon as she had yesterday. [...]

[...] After today’s session she also felt good, and rotated her arms speedily and raised them up higher than she had even yesterday. [...]

[...] Her shoulders raised and moved better also. [...]

[...] Even her head raised and lowered itself on the pillow in time with the foot motions. [...]

[...] [Dr. K is to see us tomorrow, to take blood for a thyroid test that may signal that it’s okay to raise the amount of supplement Jane is now getting.]

[...] Of the last few months or so I spent at my mother’s house—when she called me time after time during those spring and summer months of 1950: she wanted her pillows turned, she cried out in rage and pain—and here I was some 30 years later, calling out to Rob (voice breaking) to move my pillows or raise my head. [...]

[...] As when giving experimental material, she sat with her head down, a hand raised to her closed eyes.)

[...] She sat with her head down, her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

(Once again Jane bowed her head and raised her hand to her closed eyes.)

[...] Her hands were once again raised to her face.)

[...] This has the effect of raising her posture an inch or so, and seemingly has produced immediate results in terms of a much-improved posture, better balanced and freer. [...]

(I raised a hand before Seth could slip away. [...]

They would not help you get a raise but act to the contrary, and they have done so in the past. [...]

[...] When your rent was first raised within two weeks he had four new students using this method.

[...] Whenever your rent has been raised he has done the same, and any outstanding bill for the last six months has met the same treatment. [...]

[...] The raise was one, the description of another salesman was another; and there were more in that session.

(As usual, Jane now sat with her head down, her hands raised to her eyes. [...]

[...] She sat for some time with her head down, her hands raised to her temples. [...]

(Now, her head down, her hands raised to her closed eyes as usual, she began the material on the 44th Dr. Instream experiment.)

(Jane raised her head, eyes still closed, and smiled.)

[...] Seth insisted that those powers, followed at least in principle, would raise man’s estate and fill it with a brilliance and joy in which the old problems of the species would largely disappear.

(Jane began speaking in trance at a very slow pace; many of her pauses were relatively long; she sat with a hand raised to her closed eyes.)

(The closest Jane could come on the hill details, then, is that it was a longer and gradual incline rather than a short upright climb; and that it raised up perhaps the height of a one-story building in the course of its climb. [...]

[...] As usual Jane’s pace slowed; she sat with her head down and her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

[...] Jane resumed with her eyes again closed and her hands raised to them, at 10:26.)

[...] I also had trouble figuring out the right size to make the figures in the oil—nothing was going right, and after a while it was only too obvious that my subconscious was raising hell about the whole project.

(“What part of me is raising hell, then?”)

[...] She sat much of the time with a hand raised to her face. [...]

[...] As before, Jane sat quietly with her eyes closed, her right hand raised to her face. [...]

[...] She sat quietly holding the envelope in one hand, with the other raised to her face. [...]

[...] Jane sat quietly with her head down and her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

(Jane still sat with her hands raised to her face.)

[...] Questions would be raised in the minds of the readers, and in other books the various ideas could be expanded from the material, and these questions answered. [...]

[...] She sat with her hands raised to her closed eyes.)

[...] As usual she sat with her head down, her hands raised to her closed eyes. [...]

[...] She raised her hands to her closed eyes once more.)

[...] Before long she had her left foot and leg raised up a couple of inches off the bed. [...]

[...] Christina Woloschin is raising hell out in the hall, around the corner. [...]
