“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now we will continue with this discussion at our next session. [...] Now you may take a break or end the session as you prefer.

At this party affair, mentioned before session, there are two men who will give you fine ideas for portraits. [...]

(Jane now told me that just before Seth mentioned the phone call in the session, she had an image of a man in the distance, in a kind of milky fog or atmosphere. [...]

We have to a very brief extent begun to explain that phenomena in a recent session. [...]

(Dialogues, a book of poetry, is described in the 639th session in Chapter Ten. Aspect Psychology, Jane’s own theoretical work on psychic matters, is referred to in the 618th session in Chapter Three, among others. [...]

Because of your educational framework, the individual is taught to be wary of the inner self, as mentioned earlier (in the 614th session in Chapter Two, for instance), so unfortunately the ordinary man or woman looks for the solutions of personal problems outside of the self, where they can least be found. [...]

[...] Our cat, Willy, had been sick so we’d kept him with us during the session. [...]

[...] There are references to such ties scattered through The Seth Material and Seth Speaks [see the 595th session in the Appendix of the latter] and we have a modest amount of unpublished information. [...]

I wasn’t used to any messages from Seth when I was out of the house, and I’d been in the habit of discouraging any when I wasn’t having a session. [...] There was little need to stay, and again, it was a session night.

[...] Suppose I stopped having the sessions while I tried to figure things out, then decided that Seth was right on all counts — and found I just couldn’t have sessions again? [...]

[...] What difference could it make that we ever sat in this room, or had sessions, or moved furniture, or stroked the cat? [...]

So the first spring of the sessions came, a cold bright March. [...]

(I would suppose the statement played a part in bringing this session about, since it posed questions dealt with in the session. [...]

[...] Thoughts—after the 3 sessions here in Marathon, of February 16, 19, and 21, it finally dawns on me—I finally put the material in the sessions together—and realize that a more basic quality behind Jane’s symptoms is repression. [...]

[...] It was based on the three previous sessions held here, and my thoughts growing out of them. [...]

(This evening we sat waiting for a session, or whatever else might develop. [...]

(This material is from the 700th session.

[...] Ruburt does not have to displace himself to the same degree that he does in our sessions, so he is more aware of (three dots) . [...]

SESSION 700 (DELETED PORTION)

(The following material is from the 710th session.

In a way, then, the session will continue at another level of communication. [...]

SESSION 710 (DELETED PORTION)

(This material was given us by Seth at the end of the session for May 11/70 —the 527th; and is deleted from the regular record.

[...] These are listed in the 527th session.)

SESSION 527 (DELETED PORTION)

[...] I asked her to have a session on Seth’s remark about her symptoms being “amazingly stubborn.” [...] I’d always thought the sessions themselves were a form of self-hypnosis. [...]

[...] Many things spoke of a great fear of spontaneity, reinforced again and again after the sessions had started, and the symptoms.

[...] I read the session to her. [...]

This session does tie issues together quite well — and can be used to advantage for free association also.

(This session witnessed by: Coral Bishop, Susie Nolan, Lillian Nelson, Janet Clifton and Bonnie Anderson. [...]

You may now take a break and we shall continue the session or end it, as always at your convenience. [...]

[...] Session resumed at 10: 05. [...]

Now, we shall shortly end our session. [...]

I finished typing Monday evening’s session from my notes just in time to get ready for this one. [...]

Jane wanted to quickly return to the session. [...]

A continuation of our discussion (begun in the last session) on suffering.

(Heartily:) End of session. [...]

(This session is a makeup for the regularly scheduled session of Monday, February 8. It is deleted from the record.)

(As in the last session, I was getting irritated, since all of this is emotionally loaded material of course. [...]

[...] You seem to have had enough for one session—

[...] Follow what I have given you in this session. [...]

(Jane’s delivery was leisurely and quiet as the session began.)

[...] As mentioned (in the last two sessions), it also reacts to sounds that have no physical “counterparts.”

[...] See the definitions of genes and chromosomes in the 610th session in Chapter One.)

[...] (See the note at the end of the session.) These respond to the interior patterns I’ve told you about. [...]

(As referred to in the last deleted session, Saturday evening we were visited for a half hour or so by Scott and Helen Nearing, who were participating in homesteading workshops at Mansfield State Teachers College for several days. [...] The reasons behind his interest are brought out in tonight’s session, and in Jane’s own brief summary of the visit in her notes. [...]

(This evening we watched a movie on HBO before settling down for the session. [...]

(She felt pretty relaxed by the time the movie was over, but wanted to have the session because she thought it would contain material on Scott Nearing.)

(This of course as a result of my outburst following the last deleted session; see the notes.)

(For those reasons I got a charge out of the session. [...] Although I liked the ideas in the session, then, in another way I found it discouraging, for it’s also saying that after all this time we’re still left to struggle with the old challenges; it hardly seems that we’ve moved very far off dead center, I guess. [...]

[...] This session must be taken into consideration with other ones, for I am making certain points here that are important, but that do not of course stand alone.

You can if you prefer forget terms like hypnosis, but between tonight’s and next Saturday night’s session, I strongly advise that you take a half-hour: it can be nap time. [...]

[...] The entire pattern of these latest sessions deals with your inner reactions to your beliefs about yourselves and the world. [...]

[...] After her long session Monday night, she had come back with an even longer one in ESP class Tuesday evening — and with Sumari¹ added, too. Now a third session was due tonight.

[...] Her delivery had become increasingly energetic and intent, and the session had turned into one of those occasions when she — and Seth — appeared to be quite capable of continuing half the night. [...] Because I was willing to continue, Jane changed her mind about ending the session here. [...]

SESSION 614, SEPTEMBER 13, 1972
9:36 P.M. WEDNESDAY

[...] We walked around the block just before session time.)

(The following material is from the 765th session.

End of session, unless you have questions.

[...] I felt much better after the session last night. [...]

SESSION 765 (DELETED PORTION)

End of session. [...]

To parallel these sessions, it would be nice if the two of you kept Framework 2 in mind, and utilized it with a bit more confidence, and became alert again to those “coincidences” that always appear in current experience.

NOTES: SESSION 823

[...] Her feelings for these works of science, then, are the same as those she has for the ether; see Note 1 for Session 822.

[...] Remember the change in focus I spoke of at our last session. [...]

This is a brief session, to be followed by Ruburt soaking his knees. [...]

End of session. [...]

DELETED SESSION

(4:39 p.m. “Well, that’s your longest session yet,” I said. [...] She sipped ginger ale and had a smoke while I read her the rest of the session. [...]

(In yesterday’s session, Seth said that “new developments concerning the insurance situation are occurring, to your benefit.” [...]

[...] While I answered mail she began reading yesterday’s session, and once again did very well, holding the pages in her left hand as usual. [...]

(Jane got tired waiting for people to take all of her vital signs, like blood pressure and temperature, so she launched into the session.)

(“Our dentist, Paul O’Neill, visited us after lunch today, as I’ll explain in the notes following the session. The session itself springs from Paul’s visit also.)

A personal session that has of course some overall general merit. [...]

(The session subject matter was quite unexpected by me, though Jane had had plenty of intimations beforehand, it developed, without telling me. [...]

[...] I understood Seth’s material on the subject, and even agreed with it, I told Jane after the session. [...]
