“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, good evening. I wish you all a fond good evening.

All of you were meant to come here and your lives have already been changed. They have been changed in beneficial ways—you have already begun to question your existence. Before you came here you wondered. You are ready now to embark upon the inner roads of your own existence.

All of those now in this room are coming close to their last reincarnations, and when these are done you must know yourselves thoroughly. It has been meant that help be given to you. It is also meant that you use your own abilities. Therefore, for most of you there are two or three existences in the physical plane still left for you. If you do not understand yourselves there will be more.

(Now Jane, as Seth, pointed to Bonnie.) One I have known vaguely in my own past. However, you would not recognize me now, though I do indeed remember you. Now, you would not know yourself, for you were a small boy of three to four years old when I knew you, and I did not know you well. This was in Denmark, and your father was a baker. You had indeed a very short life, dying at nine or ten, of diphtheria. You see, you are older than you knew you were.

You may now take a break and we shall continue the session or end it, as always at your convenience. And you may tell Ruburt for me, Joseph (smile), that I thank him ...

(Bonnie Anderson now told us that for many years she has had a fear of diphtheria, strange as it seems. At break Lillian commented that she thought Jane’s delivery as Seth sounded Germanic. She also said that when speaking as Seth, Jane tended to use the same gestures and facial wrinkles shown in the portrait I have painted of Seth.

Now, we shall shortly end our session.

1832 ... Near a place now called Bangor, Maine. You spent 41 years there, a slim man. I will give these impressions as they come. Richita (or Wichita?—my phonetic interpretation.). An Indian name... a war that is not Indian against white man, but Indian and white man against Indian and white man. Not nationality but trade. This occurring somewhat further west but in the same general area, involving Indians down from Canada and an 1852 or 1856 resolution of this battle.

He then had two children. One child now the present husband, and one a very distant relative.

Now (in a quieter voice) I am here this evening merely to tell you that I am here. I am not here to do wonders. I am here to tell you that I have survived physical death, and that you have survived physical death time and time again. Quite simply, this is my message to you this evening, and I bid you a fond good evening...

And I am aware of many things that you think and do not say. Do not be afraid of old age, you who are so young, for you have been old many times before. And you are young now, and you learned from each lifetime, as indeed, you shall learn from this lifetime. (Smile).

(Here Seth refers to a discussion during break, concerning some of the previous data; I cannot now pinpoint what was questioned. Jane thinks the O may refer to the name Rakes. One of the witnesses may remember and a space is left below for any notes.)

Now give me a moment, Joseph.

Now my dear friend, Joseph, I have Ruburt in a good state. Do you have any questions for me that can be answered here now?

(Smile.) We have had our sessions for how long now... and you ask me this?

Reality is not limited. There is no past, present and future. These only appear to those who exist within three-dimensional reality. Since I am no longer within it, I can perceive what you do not see. But there is a part of you that is not imprisoned within three-dimensional reality, and that part of you knows that there is no time, that there is only an eternal now; and that part of you that knows is the whole self, the inner personality that knows all of your lives.

When I tell you that you have lived for example in 1936, I say this because it makes sense to you now; but you live all of your reincarnations at once. Only you are not aware, and you cannot understand within the framework of three-dimensional reality.

(Janet Clifton now told us that she has always had a fear of fire. Also, Joan of Arc has figured rather prominently in her life; in school for instance she was called Joan of Arc, witch, etc.)
