“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Existence within this system involves creation indeed and creation involves development and new dimensions. Consciousness opened up new dimensions of activity, development and awareness. Physical existence became fact. There is no degradation involved. Anyone who tells you this is telling you that automatically by being human you are to some extent damned, even though the terms of salvation are open and available and such is not the case. The excerpts from the book that Ruburt read from in class earlier this evening were highly distorted but they were less damaging, the excerpts read in particular, than the excerpts you just described.

[...] In fact, material on Three Mile Island developed in the session this afternoon—which is the main reason we decided to give these excerpts here.

[...] Then Jane proceeded to come through with much evocative material on dreams—our second reason for excerpting the session for Mass Events. [...]

(Sometimes, though, I find it quite a challenge to excerpt a number of sessions to illuminate a particular one. [...]

[...] Since the excerpts are still more representative than complete, however, due to the accumulated mass of information available, my own choices enter in: ESP class data are quoted a number of times; included is material summarizing Jane’s own theories about the Seth phenomena, as she worked them out in her recently completed Adventures in Consciousness; but reincarnation, while mentioned often, isn’t stressed in terms of particulars — that is, I refer to Seth’s statements that he, Jane and I led closely involved lives in Denmark in the 1600’s, but those lives aren’t studied per se. [...]

[...] I blush to admit the fact, but at one time I did call you Yo-Yo (see the excerpts for the 27th session).

[...] In the remaining class excerpts, Seth answers questions that readers might also have in mind.

(Seth’s reference, above, to Jane’s fear of going too fast is a reference to an excerpt from the deleted session for January 28, 1981. I keep this excellent excerpt in the current notebook where I see it each time I open the book. It seems to me that it very neatly sums up the core of Jane’s difficulties—that one, along with a longer excerpt from the deleted session for January 26, 1981 just previous. [...]

[...] I’ve chosen excerpts dealing with the subjects at hand. [...] In the chapter on health, for example, I’ve included excerpts from some readings for specific people. [...] To explain his theories on the nature of physical reality, I’m using excerpts from a session in which he really demonstrated that he knew what he was talking about—if an apparition in the living room can pass as a legitimate approximation.

This session ran fourteen typewritten pages, and is so of one piece that it’s difficult to give excerpts, without including a good bit of background information. [...]

[...] It contained a few excerpts of the Seth Material, and a reproduction of Rob’s painting of Seth. [...]

[...] First, however, here are some excerpts dealing more specifically with dreams and precognition.

[...] The excerpts from tonight’s session continue that presentation.

(Here are the excerpts from tonight’s nonbook session.

(A note added later: Seth himself had some things to say about Atlantis in the 742nd session for Section 6; the session also contains excerpts from the Atlantis material he delivered a month or so after finishing Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality. [...]

The following excerpts from the Seth Material will explain probable systems more clearly, and relate probable selves with dream experience.

[...] It served to introduce the students to Seth, and I will let a few excerpts from it serve the same purpose now, introducing Seth to those readers who have not heard of him:

Excerpts from some of the early sessions will also be included in the first chapters, since Seth’s ideas were then as new and strange to us as the sessions themselves. [...]

[...] I’m sure that these excerpts from the material itself and some sample reincarnational readings will give most readers greater insights into their own personalities and the situations in which they find themselves. [...]

[...] Excerpts from the following session will show you what I was trying to do.

(Excerpts From session 269, June 20, 1966)

[...] Originally I’d planned to present excerpts here from our joint material—but I see now that I have no space in which to do so.

1. Seth’s earliest material on EE (electromagnetic energy) units came through in September and October of 1967; in the Appendix of The Seth Material, see the excerpts Jane presented from sessions 504 through 506. [...]

[...] She hasn’t read it beyond the first part of Chapter Four, although I gave her a short excerpt from Chapter Six to read to her ESP class. [...]

(Now I’d like to present a batch of notes, ideas, and excerpts from sessions about reincarnation, counterparts, and related data, pulling them together into a coherent picture. [...]

(The material in these recent excerpts rather prepared us for Seth’s introduction of counterparts, then, in Session 721. [...]

(Also consider these two still-earlier excerpts from the 520th session for March 20, 1970, in Chapter 3 of Seth Speaks:)

(In Session 725 Seth discussed the spiritual aspects of our biological nature, and in Note 4 for that session I presented brief excerpts from the material he’d given in ESP class the night before, on the truly limitless “ceilings to the self” or identity.

[...] As any good writer should know, tell Ruburt he need not explain my characteristics; simply include excerpts that show them.

If he does this to the best of his ability, he will consider his excerpts from two standpoints—what to say, and how I say it, so that the personality and the material are clearly shown together. [...]

[...] In fact, material on Three Mile Island developed in the session held this afternoon, which is the main reason we decided to give these excerpts here.

[...] Then Jane proceeded to come through with much evocative material on dreams — our second reason for excerpting the session for Mass Events. [...]

[...] I started with the first session, for October 9, and read to Jane excerpts from them in succession, skipping my own notes. [...]
