“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Both of us have experienced it in varying degrees during psychological time, sometimes intensely. I have also experienced it outside of psy-time. [...]

[...] Rather than give you fairly frequent short vacations, I may at times close a session early. We still come out ahead in terms of time. [...]

(Jane has begun her psychological time experiments, though she is still not on a regular day-to-day basis. [...]

[...] She’d read me Friday’s work that same evening, and I had some questions about it, although it’s very difficult to formulate questions while listening to something the first time, and without having a written version to refer to. Yet as I listened to her I felt that at times the Sinful Self seemed to almost be trying to put the blame for her symptoms off on other portions of the personality—or let’s say that that was one of the feelings I had. [...]

[...] Jane said several times that she understood my feelings, but that at the same time I was misunderstanding what she’d written that day [Friday]. [...]

[...] Indeed, they wouldn’t have the time or the talent to make consciously known to themselves all the details of their challenges that had made them ill to begin with. [...]

[...] I’d expected that sort of diagnosis for some time. [...] I wanted to ask Seth about the whole thing anyhow, since he’s said several times that she’ll be able to walk normally and with some confidence.

[...] Her temperature had been taken after I left last night, and early this morning: 99 and 97.8 — down both times. [...]

(Jane said Jeff was plainly surprised at her improvements, but that at the same time he was condemning her to staying in bed. [...]

[...] The notion of one life at a time, in any time period, is bullshit—the psyche is so rich that it can have more than one life at a time—like your Nabene and Roman lives together, in the first century A.D. But if you tell people that you’ll get them all confused....”

[...] She was still “groggy” when session time arrived, but decided to sit for it to see what happened. [...]

[...] At the same time the ape male and female represents the sexual quality of the earth, male and female being simply other versions of each other. [...]

[...] You may speak with dead friends or relatives, revisit the past, greet old classmates, walk down streets that existed fifty years earlier in physical time, travel through space without taking any physical time to do so, be met by guides, be instructed, teach others, perform meaningful work, solve problems, hallucinate.

[...] Therefore, the best way to become acquainted with after-death reality ahead of time, so to speak, is to explore and understand the nature of your own dreaming self. Not very many people want to take the time or energy.

[...] It is very difficult to admit that you are in many ways more effective and creative in the sleep state than the waking state, and somewhat shattering to admit that the dream body can indeed fly, defying both time and space. [...]

[...] It is now tentatively thought that several primitive races existed in Europe at that time. [...]

[...] Contact between children and parents was at a very high level, and children were acutely uncomfortable if out of the sight of their parents for any amount of time.

(10:07.) Distances between lines were translated as sound pauses, and sometimes also as distances in time. [...]

[...] Consciousness only pretends to bow to the idea of time. At other levels it enjoys playing with such concepts and perceiving great unity from events that occur outside of a time context — mixing, for example, events from various centuries, finding harmony and points of contact by examining both historical and private environments, plucking them out of the time framework.

[...] This is something she’s wanted to do for a long time. [...]

[...] It seems to you that space can be filled only by a given item at a time, that one must be removed to make room for another.

(“Breaks during the session will be indicated by my husband announcing the time. The next time you hear my voice it will be 9 PM, and I will be speaking as Seth.”

[...] More or less as I had anticipated, she began speaking too rapidly for me to take notes effectively, although at times during the session I was able to keep up with her. [...] Thus this session is taken from the tape itself, largely, and necessitated replaying it several times.

[...] Her voice was strong, quite loud at times, somewhat slower, and at times had humorous overtones. [...]

[...] At the same time, Jane told me that there’s been an improvement in her color perception, even with the double vision.

[...] You mix times and places, and the dream itself is a kind of completed act. [...]

[...] With ideas, with our books, you deal, both of you, with such issues all the time. [...]

[...] She said her psyche did rise up to protect her many times — otherwise she’d have died, of course. [...] But each time a new book came out she got worse. [...]

[...] There were tears at various times with today’s material.

It will help, as you did once some time ago, if you compose a list of Ruburt’s good qualities and excellent personal characteristics.

(At the time of the 358th session we did not know Merle was scheduled by his company to be in New York City; nor could he have known where we would be eating supper at that particular time. [...] We believe, however, that he may have had a general idea that we would be staying in the Times Square area.

[...] (Brief pause.) These are impressions, Joseph… There seems to be a trip with a stopover, a place stopped at for a short time before another destination is reached. [...]

[...] RFB.) …I will at all times —and this is for your benefit, Joseph—I will protect your Ruburt, as I saw to it that he did not appear on the program. [...]

It will take some time to discuss the staff’s opinion of you both, so I suggest that we leave that for another time of your choosing.

[...] First, we’d moved back to 458 W. Water — which I seem to do several times a week — and looking out my old studio windows, I saw my father cutting hair like a barber out in the driveway in front of the garage. [...]

Yesterday’s session should be read two or three times a week for now.

[...] — still answering them takes time away from Dreams.

[...] Jane said she’d had the same thought at times.

[...] Jane was still coughing and blowing at times. [...]

It is only because I am so aware of the reality of time to you that I leave now, for I realize that your hour is late. But time is as transparent as the air in this room and your 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 o’clock flies through the air like birds. [...]

I welcome back our world traveler, and when you are a space and time traveler as well, then I shall also welcome you back. [...]

[...] But he shall in time, and you will recognize the difference. [...]

[...] Over a period of time Ruburt’s anxieties brought about a like condition, but not observable in the same fashion.

Many of the sensations or stages that are definitely considered negative at such times, and certainly appear so in your experience, are the result of misunderstandings because of ingrained beliefs about body behavior, or the result of your lack of confidence. [...]

[...] Ending our material for Ruburt and yourself, I want you both to arouse your own creative daring, and dare to believe that the body does know what it is doing, even if at times you must admit your own confusion, or even dismay, because that dismay is usually the result of your misunderstanding of events.

[...] He gives himself then physical achievement, and for the first time can say “I did this or that, that I set my mind on, and am succeeding.”

[...] They must be consistently carried through however, as a time of day set aside for physical achievement.

[...] Very seldom was he even aware of his true feelings here, and when he was he was ashamed of them, and was 10 times nicer to your mother to cover up the feelings from all of you.

[...] Now, though you no longer do so, the new habit has largely replaced the old, though in times of nervousness he might forget.

Actually, many times he walks to the bathroom faster at night, since he is not worried about how he looks. [...]

[...] I will have more to say but tonight is not the time. [...]

[...] Since many of them are unaware of your idea of time, they would find it difficult to understand that you perceive events with intervals between, and would not perceive the inner organization that you thrust upon your normal environment. [...]

Then present these to me at our next session, or one at a time, or two, as you prefer, and I will answer them. [...]

[...] One answer may take some time.

[...] She was very embarrassed because she would not have time to give proper notice to the school or landlord. [...] At the same time I saw in my mind’s eye a picture of the house into which she would move. [...]

[...] This was the first time in four months I had seen Anna, and the only time we ever spoke together on the phone.

Over the last few years, we have spent many hours with our dream records, though the daily time spent in keeping them up to date is negligible. [...]

(She ate an excellent lunch, and I believe continues to gain weight, if a bit at a time. [...] It seems that now literally we don’t have time in an afternoon to do half of what we’d like to—it’s like going to work and trying hard to get everything done before it’s time to go home. [...]

(Room 330 got quite chilly this afternoon—it was cold last night and chilly today—and Jane even had me lay a towel over her part of the time, since we have no heat yet in the room. [...]

[...] She said Seth may have stopped just because she thought she was going to have a bladder spasm as she did yesterday at break time. [...]
