“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You can become far more aware of your own thoughts and far more aware of your own honest attitudes. Often you do not approve of them, or they frighten you, and you shove them down into the other portions of your mind. There they can indeed do damage. If you get into the habit, however, of tuning into your own stream of consciousness you will find the person that sometimes will seem quite a stranger to you. And that person will be yourself. You will not only shove down ideas that seem negative, however, you will also shove down feelings of generosity, particularly toward people that you do not like, feelings of joy because you feel too guilty to think you should feel joy. You will shove down all kinds of impulses, and so you will not know yourself, and you will block off impulses that you really should accept, recognize and admit as portions of yourself.

There is something that you can do. There is something that all of you can do, and I have told the class this many times, but you tend to forget it. You can become far more aware of your own thoughts and feelings than you are now. Now you have much more knowledge available to you. As a rule you do not admit this knowledge. A truth about yourself will pop to the surface of your mind, and you will shove it down quickly rather than take advantage of it. I am not speaking now only to you (Maria), but to everyone in the room, our friend, Ruburt, included.

[...] I feel that my sleep with the pillow, and my later reactions of soreness, mean that I’ve touched upon, again, those areas I’d forsaken for some time, and shoved away or whatever, and that the release of tension itself was bound to be somewhat explosive, I suppose. [...]
