“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

For your own purposes an unfinished painting on your easel would help you project to your studio, for you would psychically wish to return to study it. [...]

[...] His study of my book will be of greater help. [...]

[...] This provides you with a far more comprehensive picture than, for example, any TV series could, or any neutral, scholarly study of hypothetical human beings.

([John:] “I shall go home and study it.”)

(Jane and I consider Seth’s concept of counterparts to be an intriguing psychological framework, spacious enough to serve as a workable thematic structure in which the social and nationalistic characteristics of our species can be studied, as well as the components of the individual psyche. [...]

[...] If you want to study the nature of religion and do a good job of it, then you must be among other things a skeptic and a believer, and an Indian and a Jew, say. [...]

I have endeavored to study rather thoroughly the condition of the other male present in the room, yourself excluded, Joseph, because we find here an almost classic example of the manner in which the individual subconsciously creates physical matter, and the manner in which the psychological and psychic problems of the individual conspire so that the organic perfection becomes disturbed.

[...] Here with study and attention you will find information concerning your own previous lives, which the ego is not familiar with.

[...] I will say nothing about the “fact” that you have not together studied the last session, or that Ruburt has not used the hot towels, for I do not need to. [...]

In fact, you often stated that you wanted them as studies. [...]

I had two illegitimate children (laughter), a mistress that sneaked into my private studies, a magician that I kept in case I did not do too well on my own, a housekeeper who was pregnant every year that I had her, and three daughters who joined a nunnery because I would not have them, and I am referred to in barely three paltry lines, for my reign did not last very long. [...]

[...] Actually, Seth’s own book contained so many ideas for future sessions that our problem would be what to explore first — and we would have the unaccustomed opportunity to carry out these studies at our leisure.

[...] You are learning, studying, playing; you are anything but asleep (smile) as you think of the term. [...]

[...] This is perhaps apparent to some degree when you study dream events, for there the kind of continuity you are used to, connecting events, largely vanishes.

You say: “I must maintain my individuality after death,” as if after the play the actor playing Hamlet stayed in that role, refused to study other parts or go on in his career, and said: “I am Hamlet, forever bound to follow the dilemmas and the challenges of my way. [...]

[...] In a note for Personal Reality I wrote that “Coué was a pioneer in the study of suggestion, and wrote a book on the subject in the 1920s. [...]

[...] Since the excerpts are still more representative than complete, however, due to the accumulated mass of information available, my own choices enter in: ESP class data are quoted a number of times; included is material summarizing Jane’s own theories about the Seth phenomena, as she worked them out in her recently completed Adventures in Consciousness; but reincarnation, while mentioned often, isn’t stressed in terms of particulars — that is, I refer to Seth’s statements that he, Jane and I led closely involved lives in Denmark in the 1600’s, but those lives aren’t studied per se. [...]

[...] The first, for our own study, was for Seth to describe objects thoroughly sealed in double envelopes; the envelopes were prepared [unknown to Jane, of course] by myself and by others. [...]

[...] Even though deep connections endure among the three, then, at the same time, as I wrote early in this study, Seth Two is too far “away” from Jane [and the subject matter of this appendix] to go into here. [...]

[...] As noted much earlier, the chronology for our study of the Jane-Ruburt-Seth relationship “begins long before ‘Unknown’ Reality was started, and continues well beyond the date of its ending in April 1975.” [...]

(We held the session in Jane’s study so that she could sit before the double microphones of her new recording system. [...]

[...] During break we speculated about what might be learned from a computerized global study — one extending back to the beginning of our recorded history, say — to see what correlations could be discovered between earthquakes and periods of great emotional and social upheaval throughout the world…. [...]

2. Just for my own study, I later inserted “[almost]” in Seth’s sentence because I hadn’t been quick enough to ask him to elaborate upon “the end result of an infinite series of sequences” when Jane delivered his material for him. [...]

[...] There are various ways of studying reality. [...]

[...] Scientifically, such studies would vastly enlarge your concepts so that a loving technology could follow the most beautiful contours of the mind, rising on the natural mountains of human abilities and then more easily into fulfillment.
