“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Pause at 9:57.) Let those who will, laugh at tales of spirits turning into the trees⁵ — a simplistic theory, certainly, yet a symbolic statement in such societies: The dead were buried at home in the same close territory, to form in later times the very composition of the ground upon which religions grew. [...]

8. Someday, I’d like Seth to enlarge upon the tantalizing implications contained within this statement.

(Concerning Seth’s statements that Jane will soon make a writing sale, she has nothing to report yet. [...]

(Seth’s statements about my receiving telepathic images interested me greatly, since I have been aware for some years now that I would much rather do a portrait without a model. [...]

(Concerning Jane making sale of her writing soon, the last statement of the session above now makes four times that this bit of information has come to us, either through sessions or Jane’s psychological time. [...]

[...] I think this is the first time — at least that I remember — that she’s made this statement in such a simple, direct way. [...]

(“In view of your past statements about old patterns being set, is it possible for these symptoms to return sometime, say, in the distant future?”)

[...] I do not put labels on my own theories, and I explain — or I try to explain — my most ‘profound’ statements by adding a dash of zest, a smidgen of humor, an egotistical touch of humility. [...]

[...] How interesting these statements are! [...] I was quite aware of those statements and their implied challenges in connection with the ingredients I bring together in the next paragraph.

“To me,” Jim wrote, “it would be a special opportunity for you to make whatever statement you might wish about Jane and her work. [...]

As soon as I took Jim Young up on his word that I could make whatever statement I want to about Jane’s work, I knew that this Preface would contain relatively little about Seth, Dreams and Projection of Consciousness itself, and I wrote to Jim about this. [...]

So if I insist that I’ve communicated with Jane at times, then I’m obligated to consider statements from others claiming the same thing. [...]

(See the 81st session for Seth’s statements on the Crucifixion. [...]

Now, and this can hardly be called a controversial statement, the imagination is waking man’s connection with the universe of dreams. [...]

(Jane also discussed with Tam a number of points growing out of our last royalty statements; some of these are quite legitimate gripes that we’ve kept quiet about for some time. [...]

(Pause at 9:4l.) If, hypothetically, either of you believe that Prentice is trying to “screw you up,” and if you accept that statement, or belief, then invisibly you set out to prove it. [...]

[...] There is an old saying: Time is money—and in his own way Frank would like to make that kind of a statement, clear, direct, and unambiguous: Turning clocks or time directly into good hard cash, a magic of a sort. [...]

“I would make clear the nature and conditions in which I now have my existence, and explain some of the reasons for the often contradictory statements made concerning life after death—statements received by various mediums in which quite different pictures of afterlife reality are received.

[...] I trust the answers that we received and think that they are honest statements about a very complicated psychological connection.

[...] The fact is that this statement that I have just given you is true and false, in that chemicals alone will give you consciousness, simply because we know now that every molecule exists on your plane is there as the physical materialization of conscious energy.

[...] However, I wanted to make the statement here.

[...] You already have a basic statement concerning the mechanisms involved.

[...] However, her statement prompted me to tell her that a few days before the insurance company had denied our claim for major medical benefits because they hadn’t received the hospital records, I’d waked up early one morning and lay there worrying about the possibility of a denial for perhaps an hour. [...]

I put the statement together with the little I recalled from Seth’s session and then spent a few minutes feeling my body sensations: right knee—sore; arms—sore. [...]

[...] I found statements like, “In one way, an atom could be compared to a microsecond,” particularly evocative.

I put the concluding statements separate, since I thought they would be more effective that way. [...]

(I left my thoughts about Three Mile Island, and began to consider a closing statement about Seth finishing Mass Events as summer passed its zenith and prepared to blend into fall. [...]

Your statements (of suggestion re Frameworks 1 and 2) are excellent, and should be read over.

(10:41.) If your goals fit in with overall natural purposes, you can do anything at all with your consciousness, while still maintaining ordinary contact in Framework 1. (Whispering:) I suggest that perhaps once a day in as creatively playful a way as possible, without trying too hard, in naps or when you are reading your statements, or anytime, to simply try to get the feeling of Framework 2.

([Arnold Pearson:] “I agree with your first statement.”

Now, I hope when this is recorded you will read these statements simply several times for I am saying this as clearly as I can. [...]

[...] That is, I admit, a simple statement, but it is the way most people think evolution occurred. [...]

5. Seth’s statement here reminded me of my question about the consciousness of our species, as noted at the end of Session 699, in Volume 1.

[...] It concerned his low opinion of Steve Blumenthal—to which he’s entitled, I suppose—but Saul himself made a number of inaccurate statements, so the situation appeared to me to be a standoff. [...]

[...] I simply wanted you to have my statement on this evening’s discussion.
