“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Neither of us expected that Seth would develop his session out of that idea—or even that he would give material for Dreams. [...]

[...] To answer one letter would draw its author to our doorstep at once: “I am your Seth,” and: “I will visit you as soon as I hear from you.” [...]

[...] When I said that he would join me in a demonstration, I meant that he would join me in a demonstration.”

[...] It was a session none of us would ever forget. [...]

[...] This combination results in a consciousness that is capable of much more experience and fulfillment than would be possible for the isolated atom or molecule alone. [...]

[...] Incidentally, I would like particular attention paid to this session, as the material will be of great value.”

You would have so much freedom within, and no more. You would be different from the inhabitants who you might encounter there. But in one way or another your existence would be perceived.

[...] There is no basic moral problem then when you consider the true nature of aggression, for it is highly creative, and without destruction there would be no existence. [...]

[...] The very nature of some would be frightening to you. [...]

Now in the realities of other systems another house, you see, could appear (smile) and another person could appear, and the projecting consciousness would be such a person. [...]

[...] Technically an afternoon visit on his part would interrupt the working hours of Jane and me, but we would not really call it a disturbance since we want to sell the paintings.

These squares may be filled in; as buildings in a photograph would be picked up by me first as shapes, you see.

[...] Jane thought that disarray could also refer to the fact that abstract paintings are mentioned in the letter; to some people abstracts would be in disarray, as compared to conventional paintings showing things in the usual sense—flowers, houses, trees, etc.

[...] His sign is fastened to the wall of the house beside an office door, beneath a porch roof, and would not be readable, probably, from a passing car.

[...] If the messages were to be clearly deciphered and understood, then of course the game would be over, for the one to understand the message would be the united self who [had] felt the need of such camouflaged self-troops (hyphen) to begin with.

[...] The title of the new book would be automatic: The Magical Approach to Reality: A Seth Book.

[...] If she were to sum up the results of her life’s work so far in a few lines, this poem would do the job the best of all:

[...] The episode reminded us once again that many of our visitors are seeking help of one kind or another, and that we hadn’t had the remotest idea that this would be the case when Jane began her psychic development late in 1963. [...]

[...] Note that Seth would give a complete list under one heading, then match its components item by item with their opposites — no small feat, I would say, considering the number of issues involved. [...]

[...] For a while it is still somewhat more sensitive, for example, to moods or depressions that it would ordinarily sail through. [...]

[...] Your treatments from the chiropractor for example are of benefit now, but would not have been earlier. [...]

He knew this, this being fairly natural, but he exaggerated your feeling, you see, because of his mental attitude, and felt he would be asking for alms.

[...] It would be particularly beneficial before sleeping, massaged in or before swimming. [...]

[...] “According to the material, that’s the way things would work.” [...]

[...] You felt the need, in other words, even though I assured you that overall the matter would be solved on your behalf.

[...] “I was wondering if our going with the fund idea would knock us into another probability,” I said to Seth—and already I knew the answer, since it wasn’t a very bright question.)

[...] But then after supper, as I talked with Seth, I found myself wondering whether the fund thing would cause enough of a change in our probabilities to perhaps negate the insurance settlement, whatever it might be. [...]

Now had he not solved it, All That Is in ways that cannot be understood, would have faced insanity, and there would have been literally a reality without reason, and a universe run wild.

To do so would give them actuality. [...]

[...] He did not want me involved in them in the past, and this automatically made it highly improbable that he would perceive me.

[...] I would like to summarize yesterday’s events, though, because they contain some extremely important points that we don’t want to lose track of. [...]

[...] I was afraid the new ones, a dark bluish color, would make the room too gloomy. [...]

[...] A lot of patients will be going home over the holidays, Georgia said, and those remaining, like Jane, would be moved elsewhere. [...]

[...] Jane suggested she could have a session, then would try for some exercises. [...]

Such a knowledge as you suggest in actuality would not have added to his comprehension of his body, for he comprehended it very well. It would not have added to his health for example either, for he listened to his body so acutely that natural healings followed as he sought from nature what his body needed. Perhaps a more recent example would help. [...]

[...] He felt so at one with the land, he and his body, that “a conscious knowledge of it,” it in your terms not only would have inhibited his identification with nature, but his agility within it.

[...] These can best be symbolically stated, and would always represent states of mind or feeling. [...]

Last night, at Rob’s suggestion, I looked over my notebook of sinful-self stuff with related material, hoping of course that it might trigger some important impetus or clue that would give me insight into my own position. [...]

[...] She had said earlier they would merely give indications that vasculitis might be present or might not be present—they wouldn’t say yes or no. [...]

I’ll go back and work with these ideas once again, more clearly—but they still prevented me from taking that final step into a satisfying-enough acceptance of my abilities, so that each time I would reach a new impasse. [...]

[...] To be told that you might have a brain tumor, or multiple sclerosis one week, as I was in my early days at the hospital, then be told that I would most probably never be able to put my weight on my feet again without a possible series of long operations. [...]

[...] Jane continued to talk sporadically, and I ended up finally saying that I’d better not continue, for fear that I would go too far, so strong were my feelings at the moment. I knew that as they had in the past, the feelings would moderate, and that we’d continue to struggle along. [...]

[...] I was certainly upset and irritated, for it seemed nothing new would come out of it all. [...]

(After supper Jane said she felt “loads of material from Seth” about our discussion this afternoon, and that it would take up not one but many sessions. [...]

[...] The “sinful-self syndrome” (long pause) was activated or heightened or highlighted in the last year or so in particular as you saw yourselves in a crisis situation (long pause), and to one extent or another Ruburt felt that he would be forced to ask for medical help if he did not further help himself. [...]

[...] Otherwise, there would be no need for the sometimes explosive, intrusive qualities of such experiences, for there would be no barriers.

Ruburt, for example, would have made the same error had he not been led by his experience beyond the framework of inspiration that had given it birth. [...]

[...] Before our sessions, he was so disillusioned that he would not even consider any questions dealing with “religious matters.”

“Truth,” reflected through Ruburt, becomes in a way new truth, for it is perceived uniquely, (as it would be for each individual who perceived it). [...]

[...] Our friend was convinced that one of the three of us must be destroyed, and he feared mightily that he would be the victim.

The two diametrically opposed ideas had to merge or the man would have had no peace, and only when these opposites were united could we begin to explain his situation.

[...] While Seth was giving the data, Jane said, she wondered what an Arab would be doing in Turkish Constantinople in those days. [...]

[...] Such experiences would acquaint you far better than words with some understanding of the conditions that will be encountered.

[...] It would seem ludicrous to suppose that such a vital matter as breathing would be left to a subordinate and almost completely divorced poor-relative sort of a lesser personality.

[...] However they are good tools, and you would both benefit from using them and trying them out on others.

Of course two lives would be sufficient to give you the three roles, but in some cases a personality does not function into adulthood, and therefore does not experience motherhood or fatherhood. [...]

Lack of this last factor can cause a personality to be reborn more times on your plane than would be necessary if only the role requirement operated. [...]

[...] I doubt if this data would be entered on the record had not Seth mentioned it without prompting. [...]

[...] If the energies of the personality were turned further inward, or on the other hand turned further outward toward the outside world, there would be an improvement in terms of additional, recharged energy.

Were the personality content between the two doors, there would for the present be little problems. [...]

[...] They exist as surely as they would if he acted in the same manner within the physical field. [...]

You will see that in the first mentioned examples the effect would be created by man in line with his abilities, and in the latter examples the effects would be created in some instances by what is sometimes called dead matter, but what we know as other forms of consciousness, according to their ability.

I would like to suggest that he begin reading again the body of the sessions. [...]

In all cases however, we would have material structure of one sort or another, created by consciousness according to its ability to perceive, manipulate and construct an inner psychological structure, in this case an idea, into material form.

[...] She had delivered the last break’s material while not wearing her glasses; she had paced as usual around the room, deftly avoiding furniture and other obstacles, in a way that ordinarily she would have had difficulty doing. [...]

[...] It would have been even finer to tap into those wondrous mazes much more, but we did the best we could. [...]

[...] For weeks after her admittance in April, I didn’t know if Jane would ever do any “psychic” work again, but three months later she surprised me by beginning a series of dialogues similar to the “world-view” material she’d produced for her books on the psychologist and philosopher William James, and the artist Paul Cézanne. [...]

[...] We saw that if all of the peripheral material for each session was included, the book would be very long. [...]

[...] I didn’t note it in my dream account earlier here, but I’d described to Jane how I’d asked whoever owned 458 W. Water Street these days how much our rent would be. [...] I expected it to be good, and was afraid it would be high. [...]

In those early days men and women did live to ages that would amaze you today — many living to be several hundred years old.
