“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

That is frightening, but it goes to show you that even I have things to learn... That the shock of birth is far greater than the shock of death. For when you are born again, then you must completely readjust and learn to operate in a strange and alien environment. When you die, there are no such strong adjustments. Circumstances vary, but if you are lucky—and I hope you will be lucky—then your intellectual faculties will continue to operate. Attending this class they certainly should. And so there is instead triumph, for you say, “I am dead, and still I am I” You will dance a merry dance!

Now, I have not been so social here before, and if you are not careful I shall see that you return to your dead bonfire. Not that you have not been there in your dreams, and there will be other times in classes when we will be there, and you will decide to leave the group and take the journey that will take you there. And then you will feel triumph. Now this wine is more to my liking.
