The Personal Sessions, book 5

The Deleted Seth Material: August 30, 1978 - December 10, 1980

‍

There is less in this book about the physical struggle Jane was going through during the period this book covers than there is in the other books of this series. Frankly, I was glad for it because Seth had told Jane and Robert dozens of times, in many ways, what the causes were for her symptoms.

‍

In this book, she gets better, then gets worse, then decides she’ll never walk again, then gets better. I respect her path, but it is a bit frustrating to read of how apathetic she seemed to have been about seeing through a complete recovery, especially when she had been told again and again that it was in her power.

‍

Where do your thoughts come from—your thoughts, that is? Confine the question to your own individuality. Asking yourself that kind of question can also help put you in touch with the source of your being — again, because you start with your individuality, but also acknowledge its deeper origin.

‍

I believe that the three of them were able to get out to the public enough revolutionary material in the time they had, but I do wonder what they could have published had Jane stayed longer.

‍

The imagination usually gives you a pretty good picture of what you really want. It usually escapes all of your attempts to cow it, to reason away its pictures. It is a mirror of your wants, and it is also the mirror of your will — for in it you see what you want to see, even if afterward you say that its pictures are unbidden, or against your conscious intent. Imagination and will, working together, are miracle-makers, because self-deception does not stand between them.

‍

Seth shares information, in this book, about the body’s own consciousness, how it strives toward health, and how worry inhibits good health because it inhibits intuitional insights that would lead us to constructive action.

‍

In Framework 2, for one thing, the probabilities concerning national economics are known, and your course is indeed being plotted, for your benefit, among multitudinous issues, of which you are not consciously aware. I tell you that such a mechanism does operate. Your characteristics, intents and purposes are taken into consideration, and constant readjustments are also made.

‍

In this book, Seth talks about what was happening in the world at that time: the Jonestown massacre and the Three Mile Island scare.

‍

Those are topics he also covers in the book that he was writing at that time called The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events, which is about how we each contribute to the events that happen while we are alive, including the weather and Earth events. Mass Events is a fascinating book!

‍

All energy contains consciousness. That one sentence is basically (underlined) scientific heresy, and in many circles it is religious heresy as well. A recognition of that simple statement would indeed change your world.

‍

In this book, Seth underlines again and again the importance of self-approval, the fact that our greater being resides in what he refers to as Framework 2, and how we simply need to define clearly what we want, stop worrying and focusing on what isn’t working, and trust our impulses as they will lead us to the fulfillment of our goals.

‍

You do not have to fight to trust the thrust of your own life. That thrust is always meant to lead you toward your own best fulfillment, in a way that will benefit the species as well. When you trust the thrust of your own life, you are always supported.

‍

Reading this, I felt buoyed internally by his good-natured, supportive advice, his vibrant energy that comes across in each session.

‍

I read him when I feel I’ve stepped off my center and need reminding about how things really work and the nature of reality.
