“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The gorgeous flowers are part of a package of flowers wired to us from a reader in Holland. [...]

[...] Though you were not acquainted specifically with such phenomena, you were good readers, and my presentation was, if I may say so myself, shrewdly and cleverly geared (leaning forward intently) to your own individual possibilities.

[...] Speaking to the reader releases his intuitive and emotional and creative abilities.

The mass reader is used to conventional science fiction. [...]

The mass best-sellers, for example: would you want to have the beliefs of the authors or the readers? [...]

[...] Maude Cardwell, an older Seth reader in Austin, Texas, had for several years been publishing a modest monthly journal on the Seth material that she called Reality Change. When I wrote her about Jane’s latest hospitalization Maude, without mentioning her idea to me, suggested to her readers that donations would help Jane and me cope with our hospital bills. [...] Imagine, then, our great surprise when the readers of Reality Change began to contribute: small checks; medium checks; the occasional larger check. [...]

[...] I have often been interested in the vast differences in the goals and characters of the many readers who visit and correspond. [...] Many other readers have felt the same way. [...] The exact number of readers is unknown, but over the years many people have visited and have written to Rob and Jane.

[...] Readers have written describing similar experiences. [...] I only know and feel, that the material will help me and others, and I do appreciate the participation of each reader. [...]

[...] When I came home from the hospital for the last time in a year and 9 months, John went to Jane’s room 330 and very carefully gathered up all of the belongings and artifacts we had accumulated there and brought them to me in 1730: my paintings and drawings, the letters from readers that I had put up on the walls (the hospital never complained), the session notebooks for The Way Toward Health, our books and magazines and newspapers and clothes, the flowers and other gifts from readers and from some of the nurses—all of those things that seem to accumulate almost by themselves as one seeks to create a home wherever that may be.

[...] “I do think we’re going to lose readers along the way, though — this book’s getting too hard to follow. [...]

[...] I added that I didn’t think she need worry about readers following Seth’s material — that certainly many others are just as curious as we are about where “Unknown” Reality is going.

(2. We think that many readers can more easily relate to “personalized” data.

The same applies to each reader of this book. [...]

(To me, louder): If you do not understand something clearly, mention it — because if you do not, then the reader will not.

[...] It would help here if the reader remembers what has been said about natural guilt earlier in this book. [...]

[...] Many of my readers may have certain ideas about good and evil that are very hampering. [...]

[...] Some of my readers, not being perhaps aware of any psychic ability of their own, might think then that they are in for a long and protracted period of after-death training. [...]

[...] This is the same kind of form in which you travel in out-of-body projections, and again let me remind my readers that each of them leaves the body for some time each night during sleep.

[...] In connection with this, we suggest the reader study especially Seth’s material from 10:00 to 10:36 in the 681st session.)

2. Since from this point Seth uses the masculine pronouns “he” and “him” while discussing representatives of the race, I refer the reader to Note 5 for Session 696, in Section 3.

[...] In Personal Reality I stressed many of these points for our readers, but you yourselves forget to apply them in that one important area of your lives. [...]

[...] They will be more pertinent to the reader.

(Very long pause at 3:31.) Regardless of how unbelievable it might seem to some readers, it is true that even the most destructive events are based upon misinterpretations of reality, opposing beliefs, and the inability to receive or express love. [...]

Many of my readers are familiar with private meditation, when concentration is focused in one particular area. [...]

I remind the reader that after break ended at 11:35 in the last session (the 804th in Chapter 1), Seth had this to say: “Left alone, the body can defend itself against any disease, but it cannot defend itself appropriately against an exaggerated general fear of disease on the individual’s part. [...]

Apropos of that final item, Jane and I refer the reader to the entire last session. [...]

[...] We try to use words that have an overall meaning for the general reader, and then make any necessary —

Emir is Jane’s children’s book—or the one for “readers of all ages,” as she puts it. [...] The author wrote in English, and her appreciation of the work Jane and I are trying to do is amazingly similar to certain letters we receive from readers here at home. [...] We know the mail from European readers will very gradually increase, just as it did after Jane published The Seth Material in the United States in 1970.)

[...] Last night I realized that in these notes for Dreams I also wanted to refer to the religious revolution in Iran while reminding the reader of the events in Jonestown. [...]

[...] “It’s too unfamiliar—I’m afraid it’ll confuse the reader. [...]

1. Those who are familiar with the Seth material know this, so I ask their forbearance while I reproduce for “new” readers Note 3 for Session 679, in Volume 1 of “Unknown” Reality:

[...] Rather, we want to relay to the reader that the great consciousness of Iran is made up of the individual consciousnesses of its people—that within that chosen national context the individual does have whatever freedom of creativity is possible. [...] Once again, I refer the reader to Seth’s excellent material on violence as quoted in Note 2 for Session 933.

[...] I have also sent to the library the originals of many thousands of letters from readers. [...]

As I finish this note—and Dreams—I believe it quite safe to predict that whenever this book is published the reader will find that the general situation in the Middle East is essentially the same: The consciousnesses of the countries involved, then, will continue to resist all outside overtures to “sanity” that do not help perpetuate the exploration of their long-term goals. [...]

[...] I suggest that the reader review Seth’s material on the basically creative use of violence as I quoted it in Chapter 10; see Note 2 for Session 933.

[...] I feel like he was about to lead the reader over some important material…. [...]

[...] I like to keep such penetrating remarks before me, and wish the reader would too, for I often fear they’ll become lost from conscious view within his material. [...]

[...] From my dream notebook, with age data about all involved added for the reader’s convenience:

(The dream suggests numerous subjects that Seth didn’t go into, and that I’ll leave for the reader to consider: reincarnation, the shifting of ages and the independence of memory from time in the dream state, and so forth. [...]

[...] But even without Seth’s help, interesting results can flow from an awareness of the probable-self concept: The reader can begin to intuitively consider his or her own probable selves, or those of others who may be closely related psychically or physically. [...]

[...] The ideas that we are promoting would indeed change your society—and to some extent they are—for they are altering your readers’ ideas about reality, and challenging the concepts of science, religion, and to a lesser degree, of government itself.

[...] Those readers teach their children, and so you help create a new mental and psychic atmosphere that in physical terms will long outlast this life.
