“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Those serve to organize individual action in a world where an infinite number of probable roads are open—and here again, private impulses are basically meant to guide each individual toward avenues of expression and probable activities suited best to his or her development. [...] Essentially, the individual would have no particular leaning toward any one action over any other (all with emphasis).

(9:17.) Each species is endowed also, by virtue of the units of consciousness that compose it, with an overall inner picture of the condition of each other species (pause), and further characterized by basic impulses so that it is guided toward choices that best fulfill its own potentials for development while adding to the overall good of the entire world consciousness.

I have the impression of two dark horizontal lines, one rather toward the top and one rather toward the bottom. [...]

(When the envelope is held in the horizontal position, the spine of one of the leaves is above the other, or one toward the top and the other toward the bottom. [...]

[...] With the object held in this position, it can be seen that the smaller of the two poinsettia leaves would be in the lower right hand corner or the lower left hand corner, depending on whether the piece of Bristol to which the leaves were taped had the leaves facing toward Jane or away from her.

(“Black print or lettering or writing in a right hand corner, extending outward toward the center.” [...] To Jane, this reading matter does project toward the center of the object.

[...] Black print or lettering or writing in a right-hand corner, extending outward toward the center.

[...] This leads Ruburt, now, toward a connection with the woman with whom she works.

(“This leads Ruburt, now, toward a connection with the woman with whom she works.” [...]

[...] A list on a gate toward the left. Strong inclination toward exaggeration. [...]

With reverence indeed toward the self.

The classes (ESP) will be of immediate benefit, and will represent a strong bridge toward an effective and satisfactory meeting of psychic and physical dimensions. [...] Their financial success will go a long way toward the start of a new phase of your relationship.

[...] Ruburt should definitely now concentrate on his book during the night hours, perhaps thinking of poetry toward dawn.

(Now Jane corrected the quotation she’d received from Seth as I was leaving last night, and that I’d tried to remember: “The way toward health is simplicity itself. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) The way toward health is simplicity itself.

[...] I think the area is bounded by Walnut, West Water, and Church Streets, back toward downtown.)

(To me:) Because you are so drawn to Ruburt, there is the struggle to actualize your emotions toward him in daily life. [...] Part of your artistic impetus does come from this inhibited emotion, but fresh impetus is received when the emotion is allowed to go outward toward Ruburt; and through Ruburt, acting as a symbol to you, to the world at large.

[...] He is more emotionally attuned than you, in that it is easier for him, when coming out of his private world, to rush toward you with spontaneity. [...] (Smile.) Without your feeling toward Ruburt and the resulting urge to emotionally actualize yourself to another personality, your background could have prevented even artistic development. [...]

[...] Any such self A would, without understanding or shortcuts, development, or even average progression, would travel thread A along the narrow line toward infinity. [...]

All That Is, in your terms, retains memory of that state, and it serves as a constant impetus toward renewed creativity.

[...] It is for this reason that each portion of All That Is, each most minute consciousness, is endowed with the impetus toward survival, change, development and creativity. [...]

[...] Now, every portion of consciousness is imbued with innate knowledge towards the means of expression and creativity. [...]

It mirrored your attitudes toward your job, not toward your art in that regard. [...]

Your inner feelings toward each other have been projected onto your feelings toward the sessions, and psychic work also, then. [...]

[...] In the past this has caused a tendency toward overreliance on technique. [...]

[...] For of course your personality has some strongly spontaneous and intuitive elements, as you now know, and Ruburt also has very definite, now too definite, tendencies toward discipline.

[...] Your tendency toward feeling safe in noncontact situations means that you do not want models in your studio, yet you are highly intrigued by personality. [...]

[...] For all of your own regrets and recriminations about Prentice, for example, he was himself pleased by Tam’s letter today, that that bridge toward motion had not been severed. [...]

All of the material I have given about attitudes toward revelationary material are important in that context, and please realize that I am categorizing. [...]

Ruburt’s nature leads him toward the kind of creativity he is naturally embarked upon. [...]

(Long pause.) He can help himself beside the sessions by encouraging the use of his own abilities directed toward self-understanding and healing. [...]

Concentration in any given area predisposes certain elements within the nervous system toward that particular kind of focus or concentration, as many footfalls hollow out a pathway. [...]

[...] You predispose yourselves toward the construction of events of a particular nature, to which of course you then react.

There are of course mass constructions, psychic pools whose energy is derived from many individuals, all predisposed because of their own inclinations toward specific areas of activity. [...]

[...] The relative observability of a symptom is a clue therefore as to the personality’s attitude toward its problem.

People will be drawn toward those paperbacks, and led toward “the ideal.” [...]

(With some amusement, emphasis, gestures, loud passages, etc.:) We will begin with a dissertation on your attitudes toward taxes.

[...] If others had the same attitudes toward someone in the same kind of difficulty, you would straighten them out at once.

[...] Now many of these ideas come to you because of your attitude toward your father. You have not examined for 5 years, personally, your attitude toward yourself. [...]

[...] Emotionally you also went out to your mother, but you felt that she was dependent upon him, and weaker, and so to some extent you were afraid of your own feelings toward her.

[...] You accept your own attitudes toward yourself at their face value. [...]

(“Despite the beliefs and teachings of religion and psychology, impulses are biological and psychic directional signals, meant to nudge the individual toward his/her greatest opportunities for expression and development privately—and also to insure the person’s contribution to mass social reality.”

(“On a biological basis, impulses are like [or can be compared to] emotional instincts; individually tuned, so that ideally impulses are stimuli toward action—that results as a consequence of complicated inner ‘unconscious’ computations. [...]

[...] And toward some understanding as to why some impulses have been largely buried in the past, and why others, while recognized, were denied a hearing.

[...] What you do is not as important as your attitudes toward your decisions. [...]

[...] He wants to walk—and is being driven toward motion, even though his present capabilities as yet only allow him to go so far. [...]

[...] This does apply to the predictions and to his attitudes toward the mail—which are highly ambiguous.

Sleeping five hours or so—for Ruburt, in any case—right now is good, because his body wants to move by then, and soreness and irritability begin toward morning as a rule for that reason and at this stage.

[...] She repeated that there must be something wrong with her attitude toward affairs of that kind, but I said I didn’t think so.

Suggestions are usually statements directed toward a particular action or hypothesis. [...]

These are all statements leading toward a certain hypothesis. [...]

[...] It is directed toward action in physical life. [...]

[...] (Long pause.) It is generally understood, then, that you do have an ego, directed toward exterior activity, and in those terms (underlined) you also have an inner ego. [...]

The field itself builds up toward a peak of activity, and then begins to weaken. [...]

[...] Peculiarly, she had a mental image which she described now; while speaking for Seth she had seen, in color, blue water as in an ocean, and white sand and two people running toward the beach in bathing suits. [...]

[...] (Jane pointed toward our kitchen, where we have a small table we haven’t tried.) The small table is particularly good because it was built by its owner, whose own abilities are definite, though untrained. [...]

[...] With Ruburt we should work toward the development of contrasts —deep relaxation and fast heating motions. [...]

[...] The overall concentrations should not be on ridding yourself of any particular symptom, but on directing yourself properly toward your goals, for this direction and proper focusing will automatically result in the disappearance of symptoms.

[...] (Pause.) Let Ruburt follow the program faithfully, yet with a more carefree attitude toward it, with a more relaxed attitude, He should reread the book, yet in his free moments he need not concentrate upon the program. [...]
