“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

As for Jane: So many physical changes had taken place in her body today, she was so “out of it” by suppertime, that she didn’t know whether or not she could even have a session. She’d mentioned this morning that Seth might resume work on Dreams, and because of that feeling spent part of the day reviewing sessions for the book. After supper I got her iced wine—at her request—and started these notes while we waited to see what happened.

Your closest approximation will be, again, your experience with time in the dream state—or instances in which complicated problems are suddenly solved for you in dreams or in other states of consciousness, so that the answers appear full-blown before you.

(Long pause at 9:44.) It is probably almost impossible for man to see that he forms the idea of historical context through his own associations and focuses. The heavy, specialized use of so-called rational thought has often caused him to narrow even his neurological recognition of other kinds of experience that might enlarge his view. In dreams there is greater leeway in that regard. Consciousness becomes more familiar with its own inner motion, and even with the kinds of work and actions it performs outside of its usual waking prejudices. The story of the Creation, as Biblically stated, is the symbolic representation of a master event—a legend that became its own event, of course, forming about it whole arts and cultures, religions and disciplines. The same applies to Christianity itself, for all of the seemingly historical events connected with the official (underlined) Christ did not happen in physical reality. They happened at another level of actuality, and were inserted into your time framework—touching a character here, a definitely known historical event there, mixing and merging with the events of the time, until the two lines of activity were so entwined that you could not unravel one without unraveling the other (all very intently).

2. I suggest a rereading of Chapter 2 for Dreams, in Volume 1.

3. In this Chapter 9 of Dreams, once again see Section C of Note 7 for Session 920.
