“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The inner order of existence and true science go together. The true scientist is not afraid of identifying with the reality he chooses to study. [...] There are many unofficial scientists, true ones in that regard, unknown in this age. [...]

[...] A contemporary accommodation, called complementarity, leads experimenters to accept results that show either aspect to be true. [...]

1. Once again (as in Note 7 for the last session), I quote Seth from the 45th session: “Any investigation of the basic inner universe, which is the only real universe, must be done as much as possible from a point outside your own distortions … To get outside your own universe, you must travel inward … Your so-called scientific, so-called objective experiments can continue for an eternity, but they will only probe further and further with camouflage [physical] instruments into a camouflage universe … The subconscious, it is true, has elements of its own distortions, but these are easier to escape than the tons of distortive camouflage atmosphere that weigh your scientific experiments down.”

[...] In fact, Jane said, it was a more valid and true statement of reality than the other gift from Sue—After Man, by Dougal Dixon. [...]

[...] Actually, the beasts and birds and fishes pictured in the book all seemed to be regressive, rather than to show what true progress in evolution might be like. [...]

[...] You do not trust your own spontaneity of motion—but spontaneity of motion is a true order of all life, in whatever form. [...]

[...] Some people believe that homosexuals and lesbians are “evil,” that somehow they lack the true qualities of humanness [and therefore need not be treated with normal respect]. [...]

True individuals can do much through social action, and the species is a social one, but people who are afraid of their individuality will never find it in a group, but only a caricature of their own powerlessness.

[...] He’d posed some intriguing questions about Seth’s ideas of the “true” nature of the universe, and in the nonbook session for April 30 [the 849th], Seth had given a few paragraphs of material in a partial answer.)

[...] Another contains an excellent description of true spirituality. [...]

[...] It is true I have not cried, but if things continue as they are, I may be about to, for I want your entire self here and expressive. [...]

(To Arnold.) Concepts will not shield you and true concepts will lead you toward feeling, and the feeling will lead you to intuitional truths that have no need for concepts. [...]

[...] The closest you can come to the idea, and the feeling of true love is the sexual one and so you often interpret what you receive in sexual terms. [...]

That is indeed true, and I want you to get rid of the camouflage in class. [...]

True spirituality is a thing of joy and of the earth and has nothing to do with fake adult dignity. [...]

true proclamations come.

[...] Unfortunately such concepts are also reflected in fields of psychology, particularly in Freudianism — where, say, slips of the tongue may betray the self’s hidden, nefarious true desires.

[...] Such persons often find it extremely difficult to express love, joy, or gratitude, for example, and this lack of expression is taken for granted by others, who do not see it in its true light, but think instead that the person is simply reticent.

You do not understand what true womanhood or true manhood is. [...]

[...] To some extent this was a true, creative, sexual drama — again, of high pretense, for in its own way the consciousness of the species was playing for high stakes, and the drama had to be believable.

True spirituality is a thing of joy and of the earth, and has nothing to do with fake adult dignity. [...]

[...] There is always a kind of artistic dissatisfaction that any artist feels, any true artist, with work that is completed—for the true artist is always aware of the difference between the sensed ideal and its created actualization—but that is the dimension in which the artist has his being (intently). [...]

[...] Although it may seem to your consciousness that one spider web is like any other, this is not true, of course, in the world of spiders. [...]

The true artist is involved with the inner workings of himself with the universe—a choice, I remind you, that he or she has made, and so often the artist does indeed forsake the recognized roads of recognition, and more, seeing that, he often does not know how to assess his own progress, since his journey has no recognizable creative destination. [...]

[...] The overall “true tone” is muddied. When Ruburt began Politics he experienced his “true tone” mentally and psychically; though he did not realize it, this gave him something to go by, so that now, having decided to be free, he is physically and unconsciously bringing about the physical equivalent of that true tone.

[...] The entire context of the unsafe universe protects itself by comments such as “It is too good to be true,” where any good is immediately suspect, while bad effects are considered quite natural.

It is true that some physical relaxation is of great benefit. It is true also that certain methods—and I have given some of these to you—are necessary to allow you to switch your focus of attention from physical reality to other realities. It is true, also, that it takes some training to use these other conscious portions of yourself. [...]

It is true that for a moment when you close one conscious door, the door with which you are familiar, there is an instant perhaps before you open another shade and use another portion of your conscious mind to look into other realities...and you may momentarily feel disorientation. [...]

You could not afford to identify too completely with such bodies until you learned how to survive within them, so in the dream state (pause) the true processes of life began as these new bodies and earth-tuned consciousnesses saw themselves mentally exercising all portions of the body. [...]

[...] The true history of the world is the history of man’s dreams, for they have been responsible in one way or another for all historic developments.

[...] But if what I am telling you is true, then it is obvious that when I say that your physical world originated in the world of dreams, I must mean something far different from the usual definition of dream reality. [...]

To skip ahead: it is true that Ruburt has not asked you to take him for a ride, and it is equally true that you have not offered (although I mentioned it last week). [...]

Behind all of this is the feeling that exposure is dangerous, that your true feelings must be hidden, and that the world is unsafe—hence your need for defenses. [...]

[...] Instead, true discipline is the result of true spontaneity.

[...] Any true concept has its origins outside of your camouflage system and continues beyond it. [...]

[...] The true meaning of that statement may sometime dawn. The idea of one personhood still closes your eyes to the greater multipersonhood that is your true reality. [...]

[...] It is true that you emerge into space and time at a certain point in your perception. [...]

It is quite as true to say that the planets behave in a certain way because you are what you are, as it is to turn the statement around, as is generally done. [...]

[...] I am, however, trying to show you that you are not ruled by the stars — and that when you behave as if you are, then you are showing as little comprehension of your true position as our ant did. [...]

In some cases the falsified records have been found — the misrepresentations — while the true records behind them have not as yet been discovered.

(10:06.) There were various marks made, however, to distinguish the various sets of records, true and false. [...]

[...] In Biblical times this was all the more true. [...]

You would call whole pages of the [Dead Sea] Scrolls tremendous put-ons, since whole pages, in literal terms, are not true. [...]

If the personality settled for less, then, true, the conflict would not have arisen. [...]

[...] For some time he confused true spontaneity with acts caused by blind propulsion, so he could not trust his spontaneous nature. [...]

[...] Ruburt did not see that the discipline was the result of terror, and was not true discipline. [...]
