“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

2. I’ve always liked the way Jane uses the word “eccentric” in relation to the abilities of any portion of consciousness to create new versions of itself; she’s added her own original interpretation of the word to the dictionary version of “eccentric” as meaning out of the ordinary, or odd, or unconventional.

She began to refer to the eccentricities of consciousness in October 1974, following her first conscious experience with her “psychic library,” and a subsequent transcendental experience in which she suddenly began to see, with an astonishing clear vision, the great “model” of each portion of the world about her—each person, each building, each blade of grass, each bird, for example; our ordinary world suddenly appeared quite shabby by contrast. Jane wrote that “everyone was a classic model, yet each was also a fantastic eccentric…. I saw that each of us is a beloved eccentric not only because we have inner models of the self, but also the freedom to deviate from them, all of which makes the model living and creative in our time.” In Psychic Politics, see chapters 2 and 3.
