“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

These directions are not forced upon action by any laws. They are merely the resultant patterns with which energy expresses itself. You are only familiar as a rule with this impetus, or these directions, in rather shallow manners, for the ego prefers not to perceive them. These motions are merely the flow which action takes. What you term negative suggestions are usually impeding actions, or directions of action which impede the main directive inner flow. They operate then in much the same manner as crosscurrents, setting up blockages, and impeding main energies by dividing them in several diverse directions.

It is important that it be understood that suggestion, as you know it, is but the manifestation of inner flows and inner directions. Without the inward flows and directions, it goes without saying that action would indeed involve itself in chaotic disorders, without constructive patterns or materializations. It would instead entangle itself within the power of its own energy, and be unable to form any long-lasting patterns or frameworks within which fulfillments and fairly permanent constructions could be formed.

When you speak of negative suggestions, you are actually referring to a situation where such crosscurrents entangle action within itself, and therefore impede the main constructive impetus that unrestricted action allows. Until the energy, once again, becomes disentangled, action will therefore flow also in the crosscurrents, and the main trunk of energy that gives overall integrity and identity to any given unit could therefore be severely threatened.

Your own giving is flowing into your work. [...] Allow it its flow; and now I bid you a fond good evening.

The repression however was to remind you of freer patterns that would and could flow. [...]

You also wanted your work to show and express those mysterious moments when the rivers begin to flow (underlined), the heart learns to speak. [...]

[...] Affirmation means that you embrace the life that is yours and flows through you. [...]

[...] The ambiguities, the contrasts, the similarities, the affirmation of the creature self, allows for the free flow of emotion. [...]

[...] They are natural ever-changing states of feeling, each leading into another in a free flow of energy and activity — colorful, rich, glowing tints that bring variety to the quality of consciousness. [...]

[...] Jane tried again to read the session, but couldn’t. At 3:10 I started to read it to her when Mary Jean came in to check the flow of the antibiotic. [...] It takes an hour for this second dose to flow into Jane’s body, compared to the one-half hour for the Gentamicin.

[...] Carla took Jane’s temperature — it was up again to 101.2. Judy came in to check the flow, and said Jane was to get the Bactrim every six hours, or four times a day. [...]

Now, emotions flow through you like storm clouds—or like blue skies—and you should be open to them and react to them—and let them pass. [...] They flow through you. [...]

[...] And the clouds flow through the thick skull easily. [...]

[...] They flow through you. [...]

[...] The creative material will flow. It flows as a result of his own characteristic nature. [...]

[...] His energy will flow through him easily and naturally and safely as he perceives that such is nature’s way. [...]

[...] Straight and free are my arms, so that intuitive knowledge can flow freely through them, out through my quickly moving fingers to the page. [...] My mind is open and clear, therefore my arms and hands which translate my thoughts into printing are open and clear, channels through which my creative energy may flow.”

[...] Therefore do not limit the flow of energy in such circumstances.

[...] Generally speaking however see a free, abundant flow of energy between you and your environment. [...]

[...] Your situation could be bettered financially while you retain basically the same schedule you now enjoy, if—and a very large if—if changed expectations were creating the psychic climate in which supply would flow. [...]

Instead of a steady flow of electromagnetic current, generally speaking, there is a rather erratic bombardment that affects such psychic affairs as ours. [...]

[...] She noticed no unusual pauses within, in the flow of the material, etc.

Your personalities, in a symbol now, form the two sides, the two banks, of the stream through which the material flows. [...] The material is that which flows through the stream. [...]

(Humorous.) The stream flows down from high inaccessible mountains, but it will all pass by if you are patient.

Now it makes no difference, basically, how you present the material, as long as it is presented; whether you let the stream flow on consecutively, one wave at a time, or whether you present it a bucket at a time, scooped up from various places. [...]

[...] I like the ocean analogy because you get the idea of continuous flow and motion without apparent division.

[...] The inner senses inhabit directly the atmosphere of our value climate; they see through the ever-varying camouflage (physical) patterns, and the flux and flow of apparent change. [...]

If that language I speak of had been verbal, man never would have said: “The water flows through the valley.” Instead, the sentence would have read something like this: “Running over the rocks, my water self flows together with others in slippery union.” [...]

[...] There are channels of interrelatedness, connecting all physical matter — channels through which consciousness flows.

(A one-minute pause.) Each natural element had its own key system that interlocked with others, forming channels through which consciousness could flow from one kind of life to another. [...]

Knowledge automatically changes the personality and the camouflage structure through which it flows. [...]

[...] In that case your own personality structure was altered by the information that flowed through you, and it became a part of your earth life heritage. [...]

[...] It is not a dead thing transmitted, since it has no meaning without personality and realization, and since it changes the personalities through whom it seems to flow. [...]

Above all however do not concentrate upon this as a problem, but as a challenge you are even now overcoming, and let the rest of your day flow with other creativity.

[...] I have said this to many: but if you, Joseph, trust yourself and throw yourself onto the graces of yourself, then from you will flow all that you need or desire. [...]

[...] The technique can be channels of line through which feeling may flow. [...]

Imagine the vision on the board, forming itself and evolving outward into physical reality, and let your fine technical abilities simply help the vision flow outward.

Imagine the inner vision flowing through your mind outward freely onto your board. [...]

[...] Such a policy would allow you an automatic way of making such decisions, would clear the air, and give you each a far more exuberant flow of energy.

[...] It represents a way of handling your energy that is native to your own being, and permits creativity its easiest, most natural flow.

[...] Particularly the clear flow of both the creative and psychic abilities.

[...] She is now open and receptive to the healing currents which are flowing through her like a river, restoring her to perfect health, harmony, and peace.

(All distortions and ugly images are now washed away by the infinite ocean of love and peace flowing through her, and it is so.

If you are overconcerned with helping others, then you must first of all begin to question whether or not your creative material, still forming, will serve that purpose, and if not, or if there is a question, you give birth to hesitations and doubts that—again—subvert art’s free flow. [...]

[...] If the “products” help people, that help is an additional feature flowing naturally from the art itself, and not applied to it with a heavy hand. [...]

[...] When he becomes overly concerned with ideas of responsibility to use his talent, then the love beneath them is smothered to some extent and denied its flow. [...]

[...] Spontaneity knows its own order, and will see that it flows in proper, free, orderly directions. Ruburt has been trying to dam his spontaneity to make sure it flows only through his work, and in doing so has hampered both his life and his work.

[...] Picasso’s free flow of energy in all areas freed energy for his work, and did not detract from it. He kept his channels to energy open, therefore the energy flowed through his work freely, and in a short period of time he could produce a painting that might take years for another as gifted to produce, who husbanded his talent as a miser.

[...] He has had to use far more energy to get those messages than is necessary, because he has impeded some of the sections through which information flows. [...]

[...] The first language, the initial language, did not involve images or words, but dealt with a free flow of directly cognitive material.

A man, wondering what a tree was like, became one, and let his own consciousness flow into the tree. [...]

[...] The “secrets” of languages are not to be found, then, in the available sounds, accents, root words or syllables, but in the rhythms between the words; the pauses and hesitations; the flow with which the words are put together, and the unsaid inferences that connect verbal and visual data.

[...] It interrupts what should be a simultaneous and easy flow of inner impetus outward, in your case outward to physical construction. [...]

[...] Without the ego we do not have what you call negative suggestions, for when action is left to itself it flows unimpeded, seeking its fulfillment along its numberless unimpeded ways.

[...] When the ego, therefore, becomes too overbearing it attempts to impede the flow of action. [...]
