“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] She thought the name was Foss, instead, although she was not as positive here. [...] We thought Seth would clear the matter.

[...] This material refers to some remarks I had made earlier, about trying to list galleries in New York City that I thought might be interested in my type of art, judging from their advertisements.)

[...] Another speaker, thought not available, may change his mind.

[...] Thoughts appear, growing on the bed already laid. [...]

[...] You project your thoughts, feelings, and expectations outward, then you perceive them as the outside reality. [...]

[...] Your feelings, your conscious and unconscious thoughts, all alter and form your physical image. [...]

It is not as easy, however, to realize that your feelings and thoughts form your exterior experience in the same way, or that the events that appear to happen to you are initiated by you within your mental or psychic inner environment.

[...] As you understand, pure knowledge cannot be put into words, and for that matter it exists beyond your usual concept of thoughts.

[...] (Long pause.) To me, a thought is as real as a day to you. [...]

[...] But I thought it a good idea not to continue this exchange too long.)

(Jane said that when “he” asked for a pause, in our time, while giving the data about coordinates, she thought that Seth might be called in to explain this material to us in our terms. [...]

[...] The thoughts, for example, of All that Is were not simply thoughts as you might have, but multidimensional mental events of superlative nature. [...]

[...] What a heretical thought from the scientific viewpoint!) But each atom of whatever element is an amazingly complicated, finely balanced assemblage of forces and particles woven together in exquisite detail—one of the more basic examples of the unending and stupendous creativity, order, and design of nature, or consciousness, or All That Is.

[...] The instruments will be planned to catch certain camouflages, and since they will be expertly thought out they will perform their function. [...]

[...] Instead, I thought, by “another form” he may mean an explosion of ideas or knowledge in our reality, with the tremendous objective results that would follow. [...]

[...] Your own thoughts wore you out. [...] You remembered doing Ruburt’s Dialogues drawings, and Adventures diagrams, and those thoughts crowded your present. [...]

[...] At once afterward I thought that such an event was quite unlikely on a Sunday morning. [...]

[...] Yet I tell you that in such a body you would finally feel like a prisoner, for your moods and reflections, your feelings and your thoughts, would find no responsive mirror in your flesh. [...]

[...] A concentration upon negative thoughts and feelings to the exclusion of all else, will depress the mind and body as surely as any drugs.

[...] The aggression that he feared was not so great and big and powerful and black and hairy and threatening as he thought. [...]

[...] You can do the same thing without realizing it by projecting into the idea of violence, all powers, and then it seems to you that life itself has no ability to protect itself and that any stray thought of violence or disaster will immediately zoom home and that the recipient has no way to protect himself. [...]

[...] These people thought then that violence would be wiped away from the face of the earth, and they hoped to begin a race of people that would not know violence. [...]

([Arnold:) “The thought of not being able to do anything violent, as these people were, lead me to think of the opossum, that play opossum when violence appears.” [...]

[...] I also thought that although Helen Park said in her letter that there were no strings attached to the donation, still there must be attachments in some form — that it was natural that there would be. The only way out of that situation that I thought of at the moment was that the giving of the gift, and the personal contact it meant, constituted the attachment. [...]

(I also thought the call might force a change in what I tell correspondents — but then, with the information about us that I furnished for Maude Cardwell’s article in Reality Change, what would be the point of changing my response to the mail? [...]

[...] I hadn’t thought of it that way particularly. [...] I thought Seth could comment today, but I expected no detailed response there either at this time. [...]

[...] I thought about the whole situation last night as I typed yesterday’s session. [...]

[...] She thought Seth might comment tonight upon the correspondent’s situation.

[...] Although instruments can indeed be most advantageous in many ways, they still present you with secondary rather than primary tools of investigation—and they distort the nature of reality far more than the subjective attributes of thoughts, feelings, and intuitions do.

[...] Never again would we go the way of two volumes, we thought—yet here we are, doing it once more!

[...] She added that she often thought of trying something that way, but that she hesitated to ask me to take the time to sit around in case nothing happened, since she knew I was trying to work as much as I could on the intro for Seth’s Dreams. [...]

[...] She’d just spoken a phrase I didn’t understand as I worked on these notes—something in answer to a question she’d thought I’d asked. [...]

[...] For of all the doctors she’d encountered while in the hospital, Jane had liked Dr. C the best, feeling intuitively drawn to him and his optimistic statements that once her thyroid began functioning again she’d find herself getting around much much better than she thought possible. [...]

[...] The thought had come to me clearly.

(Jane returned at 7:05 PM, and confirmed my thought. [...]

It may be thought that such perception patterns or identities may be limited, but this is hardly the case. [...]

[...] My point is to show that she did not have time to consciously tinker with the thought, to recompose it in a literary sense, etc.)

(However, a little thought shows that Fred’s departure may actually work to our advantage—slowing down any precipitous decision on the part of the Chemung County Infirmary to want to possibly move Jane over there; if he isn’t present to give advise, officials may not be able to reach a decision, except to leave her alone—which is what we want. [...]

[...] It was harder for me to tell him than I thought it would be, since I didn’t want to hurt anyone, etc. [...]

[...] No word on what’s happened with Graciella—I’d thought that match was one of those ideal ones. [...]

[...] I began to get very tired—probably, I thought, a reaction to the morning’s events. [...]

Some of this has already taken place on its own in the past month (as Jane has noticed), but I thought it better not to mention this, and I believe I was correct. [...]

[...] I thought it most peculiar that only my feet burned when the rest of my body was equally exposed. [...]

[...] You have also been sending thought forms out—and this is different, than an astral image.

Some of the models for your paintings have been of thought forms sent out by others. [...]

[...] As mentioned earlier, thoughts, containing their own electromagnetic reality, have form whether or not you perceive it. With each thought, then, you send out from yourself shapes and images that can be quite legitimate realities to those within the system of reality into which they are propelled.

[...] The intensity of the thought or emotion determines the characteristics of the units themselves. [...]

[...] The physical brain is the mechanism by which thought or emotion is automatically formed into EE units of the proper range and intensity to be used by the physical organism.

[...] They involve thoughts also, as well as more obviously physical events. [...]

[...] Both he and Ruburt have thought relatively little about money or social status. [...]

[...] I told her I thought “Unknown” Reality was excellent. [...]

[...] She is quite aware, therefore, of his decision not to buy the [Markle] house.⁵ In her level of reality, she was aware of the fact that Joseph wanted the house strongly; that one portion of him thought of possessing a large home, even though this would require upkeep and attention that another part of him did not want to provide because he felt it would take too much time from his painting and our work.

[...] There is even an acceleration of thought and inspiration, much like that experienced in the adolescent years, that suddenly brings a new understanding to the aged individual, and provides an impetus that should help the person to achieve greater comprehension — a comprehension that should quell all fears of death.

Thoughts and beliefs do indeed bring about physical alterations. [...]

[...] The unconscious was trying to give you what it thought you wanted, in that respect, now. [...]

(Jane had been speaking very softly, in a very dry and husky voice that I thought was getting worse by the minute. [...]

[...] We have thought of trying this before.

(Seth dealt with the expanding universe theory in sessions 42-45, saying among other things that our physical universe is not expanding as is currently thought; he had much to say on the distortive data furnished us by our instruments.)

[...] I thought “November” might be correct also.

[...] I thought the November reference might be legitimate, since the originator of the test object, Ann Diebler, could have visited our apartment during that month. [...]

[...] The young woman (Jane) found herself extremely uncomfortable to find your family members living together in one house—astounded by the thought of the family together in a trailer, frightened of the camp get-togethers. She could be expected to have some difficulties when presented with the thought that she should speak to gatherings of perhaps a thousand people or more, and that this was indeed her responsibility, all other feelings to the contrary. [...]

[...] I thought that if her legs attained equality in their states of looseness, that she would find it much easier to straighten and strengthen them.

(I’ve also thought of making a list of pertinent points—one liners, say —that are especially good, from these sessions. [...]

[...] The news broadcast (for ABC) for example: Suppose he did say yes, he has thought, and even managed to get by with it in his present condition—how many other such interviews might then be offered? [...]

[...] Your thoughts intertwine with the thoughts of others. You are responsible for your own thoughts. You need to learn the power of thought and emotion, but this should fill you with the joy of creativity and the possibility, not frighten you out of (words missing) of responsibility. Once you realize that your thoughts form reality then you are no longer slave to events. [...]
