“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] If that experience were a dream, what would it mean? And into what kind of waking life would you rise in the morning?

[...] First of all, see them as a series of scenes, arranged in small squares, to be viewed as you would, say, a comic-book page. [...]

The other exercises, in fact, will result in a clearer picture of the world, for they will facilitate the very motion of your perceptions, allowing you to perceive nuances in the physical situation that before would have escaped your notice. [...]

[...] Then on April 14 Ethel Waters calls from Production at Tam’s insistence saying that after Events was delayed till May 14 because of the disclaimer problems; so it would come out the same month as God of Jane.... [...]

Now I told you a new plateau would be reached, and he has reached it; and, incidentally, with your help. [...]

[...] A lingering group of minor symptoms over a period of years would represent instances that could cause difficulty, given the proper circumstances, or rather, the improper circumstances. [...]

If death disappeared on your planet even an hour all of life would soon be threatened. And if all life possible suddenly emerged at once, then most surely all would be annihilated. [...]

(Just before the session, we saw a newscast of a congressional committee in Washington, with some well-known scientists testifying as to the probable aftereffects of nuclear war—how the instigator would also eventually destroy itself even if the attacked never fired a retaliatory strike at all. [...]

[...] I told Jane the little session was her best yet—that if it would do any good I’d put it up on the wall. [...]

Some improvements, again, have begun, barely noticed: the additional mobility in the morning, when a short while ago Ruburt would sit for an hour or more after breakfast while you brought him his second cup of coffee. [...]

Now unless you have questions this will be a brief session, for much that I would say is in what you will be reading this week. [...]

That would mean that you were wishing away your own intelligence, intuitions, and wit. [...]

Ideally—and this is a big ideally—there would be no such damage to the body. [...]

[...] Anyhow, got the idea when I put the book away that Seth would speak about things like the Moonies without mentioning them, idea being that the self as it is isn’t trusted; as in the Jonestown thing. [...]

2. This reminded me that before Seth Speaks was even contracted for, Seth told Tam that it would be published.

[...] Did three excellent pages James—and would have done more except for day’s events—called Edna B. about Cézanne; Tam called; Peg called about those nuts; two fans arrived. [...]

If you had first read the article of which you have been speaking, and then in a semi-dozing state created your idea of a novel, replete with the characterization of the mother, then you would say that cause and effect were involved.

[...] In this case a novel was involved because the concept, while strongly involving images, carried a time span that would make narrative necessary.

[...] I thought it would make a great novel as all of the entangled threads were unwound, and considering the emotional tangles that had been built up over the years as parents raised children they thought were theirs.

[...] (A fourth brother had died at birth.) Their unknowing would match my own dreamlike idea of the two young men living in the Elmira area but not knowing of each other. [...]

i didn’t want to sleep
for fear the world would disappear
but new days kept coming and coming.
the old ones slipped away one
by one, but were always replenished.

[...] Had I known, I would have been bewildered—at least at first. [...]

[...] What kind of world would you create?

[...] [If I did] then I would be denying you your own power, and therefore seemingly building my own … I am here because I enjoy it. [...]

(When he originally gave us the 812th session some 16 months ago, Seth told us it would “be part of a chapter later in the book….” [...]

[...] An examination of unprejudiced sense data at any point would at any time bring him relief.

[...] She said, as she has before recently, that she would try to get along on her own, and hire someone to take care of her. [...]

[...] This would be easiest, of course, providing the treatment is equal. [...]

[...] You are never certain of your income’s exact amount per month, say, as you would be if you had salaries. [...]

[...] At his worst the arms would be like this, you see, as if to hold back—

[...] During break I said I hoped Seth would discuss the episode Jane experienced during the 523rd session for last Monday, April 13, 1970. [...]

(“That would be good.”

[...] That is the meaning of spirituality and as I have told you before, if I could, I would do a merry dance about the room to show you that your vitality is not dependent upon a physical image. [...]

[...] I do not want gullible ninnies, however I certainly would enjoy being taken at my word occasionally. [...]

[...] Strangely I had never asked Seth for an explanation, so now I made it a point to remark that I hoped he would deal with it this evening. [...]

Again let me mention that you in particular, Joseph, had a much more pleasant winter than you would have enjoyed without the knowledge of your own present personality gained from our sessions. [...]

[...] Once again we discussed a subject we hoped Seth would mention after break. [...]

[...] Jane rested and had some ginger ale while she waited to see what would happen next. [...]

[...] The window was already opened as wide as it would go.

[...] She also realized that if she “just sat there,” Seth would do okay on his own.

[...] This would be a distance of about six feet from the rocker she always uses for sessions.
