“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Or when I have to take writing time to figure this stuff out—

1. I still feel guilty doing creative stuff like poetry in work time when it might not sell. [...]

[...] At same time I think you should go out each day, exercise, see people, do other things for balance, but this is later stuff? [...]

[...] Tell yourself before you go to bed that you can do it and then those of you who do stuff during the week, try to do it consciously using the same way we did it tonight. [...]

[...] You are made of the stuff of the earth, and the dust from the stars has formed into the shit that lies in piles — warm piles that come from the beasts and the creatures of the earth. [...]

[...] “I’m sort of confused,” she said now, “because the stuff I got from him is kind of difficult, and I don’t know whether I’m up to it or not…. [...]

[...] I remember the stuff on particles, but I don’t even know if I got it all. [...]

[...] “Now there’s some stuff I want written down, but you won’t approve because it’s not for the intro—”

(9:25 A.M. “That’s all of the stuff on the Introduction, then….” [...]

Without being specific before the session, Jane said she felt “lots of stuff from Seth churning around.” [...]

(10:01 P.M. “Boy,” Jane said, “I sensed a whole bunch of stuff on dreams, and when I reached that part on reincarnation and dreams, I knew that’s where I was supposed to get. [...]

(“Well,” Jane said, indicating two points in front of her as we sat waiting for the session to begin, “there’s book stuff there [to the left], and stuff on me there [to the right]. [...]

(“I remember he — Seth — even helped me out with stuff on the Christ drama in there,” Jane said. [...]

[...] So I wonder how often I’ve missed out on some good stuff by doing it that way. [...]

[...] “So it’s tricky as hell to do all that stuff and not let yourself slide over the edge,” she said. [...]

[...] Maybe we better just look stuff over instead.”

([Joel:] “I guess in the beginning Jane and Rob were a little ambivalent as to whether they wanted to go and check the Frank Withers thing, and we have not made any attempt to check the stuff that Bill gave the first time—That I, in the ‘40s and having been a lawyer and went to Northwestern law school, practiced law in the Loop, that kind of thing. And Hazel last week stopped in Chicago on the way across country and got the address of the Bar Association and some other people, and we’re finally going to check this stuff. [...]

(This material is free-association stuff, following Seth’s suggestion in the private session for Jane on May 15. [...]

[...] The same with the psychic stuff: a hysterical woman. [...]

[...] Then I thought that perhaps I wasn’t amazed at all — that such things could be old stuff to therapists following various psychological disciplines. [...]

[...] She said that she and Seth had been trying to handle some pretty heavy stuff in a certain way so that it wasn’t too grim, and ended up with upbeat interpretations. [...]

[...] “So if you followed his stuff,” I said after supper, when I was getting ready to leave, “you wouldn’t have taken the antibiotics, and the body would have taken care of itself.” [...]

[...] Then I get the feeling that scares you even more—that you’re scared to death of the hospital, and yet you’re afraid to dismiss your doctor and say to hell with the whole bit—I must be hiding stuff, see, because I’m getting ready to cry, because the time might come when you couldn’t stand it any more, and you’d have to do it—go back to the hospital—go through it all again—then I just tell myself I’d make out again, just like millions of people....” [...]

[...] “And he’s got even more, but it’s getting late and the supper tray will be here and you have to turn me and stuff …” I could tell she was able to continue. [...]

(“Get out your stuff,” Jane said after I’d told her about Frank’s remark and we had discussed it a little. [...]

[...] I thought her fear of motion was involved, as well as old family stuff, and she agreed. [...]
