“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Again, see sessions 120-127, in Volume 3, for material on the electromagnetic field and related subjects.)

In the past we have spoken briefly concerning a tricky subject, the relationship of intensity and the nature of distance. [...]

[...] Peggy attended the meeting in her role of reporter, and volunteered as a subject. [...]

(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. [...]

I will continue with this fascinating subject at our next session. [...]

(Next, the subject matter of the 18th session led me to recall that Seth had also discussed trees several years later. [...]

[...] Without giving away any “secrets,” I can write that on both occasions Seth discussed the subject in conjunction with his postulates about ideals, myths, religion, probabilities, and the simultaneous nature of time.)

A Subjective Journal

[...] Here you have the birth of subject and object, the I AM who is the doer or constructor, and the construction itself.

[...] I tried to explain what had happened, realizing for the first time the vast gulf between words and subjective feelings. [...]

[...] They come from subjective rather than objective reality, and, in my case at least, they become objectified, their force propelling them into physical actualization.

[...] Our conversation then turned to the matter of scientific proofs and related subjects. This was also one of the subjects we had discussed at lunch, leading of course to Seth’s subject matter in the delivery just concluded.

[...] some people get steamed up over this subject. [...]

[...] More will be said about this particular subject later. [...]

[...] We had but to decide which subject we wanted material on after break:

(We chose the first category since it would continue the subject matter of this chapter. [...]

[...] Such dreams provide (pause) the subjective understanding from which thoughts are developed, and in those terms complete thoughts are possible before the brain itself is fully formed. [...]

Such philosophies are also deadening on an intellectual basis, for they must of necessity close out man’s great curiosity about the subjective matters that are his main concern. [...]

If you will remind me, I will say more from time to time on that subject.

[...] The subject and the predicate in prose are dependable. [...]

[...] People like poetry as a rule in your society only when it is dealing with conventional subjects, or directly with nature, so that in a way, now, the intuitions are used “to a rational end.”

Ruburt is used to dealing with subjective events. [...]

[...] It is the subject matter of the book that intrigued both publishers, plus Ruburt’s belief in the book. But it was also the subject matter, to some degree, that made Mr. Fell cautious, and that finally caused the earlier publisher to turn it down.

[...] Then as we went to bed she brought up two additional subjects to discuss, for those who would wonder: why we hadn’t more actively sought medical help in the past for her physical condition; and the many private, or deleted, sessions Seth himself has given for her over the years.

[...] To have attempted to censor Seth since 1963, say, to “keep him to ourselves” on that particular subject, would have long ago turned into an impossibly complicated and dishonest task: Jane and I would have become involved in a constant distortion of his material as we rewrote the sessions. [...]

[...] I thought it was great that she was expressing deeply-felt emotion, just as I was surprised that she’d spontaneously — seemingly — chosen the subject matter for the session … This had to be good, I said.

[...] A large subject, I know, and one chosen by all involved, but still …

It is this portion who seems to stand outside and view the subjective self. [...]

Now, in a deep trance the subject, though fully aware of what is happening in the trance, may remember nothing of it afterward. The awareness of plant life is also somewhat like that of the subject in deep trance. [...] But like the trance subject, our plant is aware. [...]

Incidentally, while we are on the subject, often when you thought you were dealing with a matter or a person in a dissociated manner, you were instead exhibiting a cold, conscious detatchment. [...]

(“Well, I’m quite sure we’ll have more questions on the subject from time to time.”)

(And however loose the fit, I can state here that Miss Callahan was the subject or question I had in mind and wanted to know about.

[...] I thought, though, that it was more than coincidence that Jane became more active, considering the subject matter of the next paragraph.)

[...] Now can I change the subject a bit?”)

To understand your time, we would have to enter into it completely, for it has no meaning but for your subjective experience of it. [...]

[...] Jane however was quite aware of a subjective difference, other than Seth, but couldn’t explain how she knew this.

[...] I was being given many of the subject headings for — Seth’s next book, even as I was writing the Introduction for this one! Behind each heading or subject, I sensed realms of information available to Seth, but not (in usual terms) to me. [...]

[...] The subjective pace quickened and kept accelerating — then I hit a psychological brick wall, and I could carry the concept no further. [...]

[...] The whole idea of the esthetics of nature is forgotten — a subject that we will touch upon further as we continue our discussion.

[...] They (the buildings) are solidfied emotions, solidified subjective states, given physical materialization.

[...] The deepest, most basic and abiding subjective experience is translated, however, into those natural elements: the ample landscape that sustains physical life. [...]
