“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Good evening to you all and welcome to our new friends.

Now I have said this before, that one of our most extensive travelers is completely unaware of her nightly adventures, and again I will not look at anyone in particular because I would not embarrass you.

Write it down for yourself. You do not understand. Our friend here can tell you (to Sue), you can be determined to write such an experience down and forget to do so. You must do it immediately. Now, you say, no, I will not remember immediately after the experience.

Now this is why you cannot explain to our Lady of Florence the nature of time, because she has closed off her feeling in this particular line. Now you cannot verbalize what I am or what happens in this room, but then, you cannot verbalize what you are or what happens within yourself or within your mind. And there are journeys that each of you embark upon, and you do not know in words the nature of the destination, and you do not know when you arrive at this destination, and you do not know when the destination is no longer a destination but a way.

(Seth II:) We seed universes and consciousness and your animals and your plants. The consciousness that composes them, is endowed by us. The warm-blooded creatures that you know are seeded by our consciousness. They are the children of our dreams and so, also, do you seed other realities and other systems. They are the children of your dreams. You have little contact with these but always the inner self remembers its offspring. Therefore, also do we remember you and your system. Consciousness releases its abilities in ways that you do not understand and yet from your own mind, springing from your own dreams, other systems of reality emerge as you have emerged from our dreams. Your system can be likened to a probability system that was latent always within our own capabilities but was not actualized within our experience.

(After break, Seth:) Now, the time has come for some of you, and I have said this before, to go beyond kindergarten class so that we can sneak in a third-grade lesson now and then and that is what we have been doing. What our friend, the Dean (Theodore) here said, does indeed apply and also I acted as a translator. Such messages will be given in slightly different terms. They will often be devoid of the comfortable images that you all know. They are, therefore, less distorted. You like the word warm-blooded, but where do you think your emotional abilities come from. They come from realities that you, as yet, cannot understand and you would not comprehend them and so they must be translated.

Now the time has come for you to outgrow parables, but this will take considerable stretching of consciousness on your part, and considerable work on our part. I am a mediator as well as teacher. I stand between what you are and what they are, in your terms, and that last phrase is a loaded one. Whenever I say “in your terms” the phrase is a loaded one, so be prepared and remember it when you read our sessions.

And we will get to it but it does not look as if we will get to it tonight. Now in our class sessions there are many things with which I want to deal and when each of you are ready for personal material you will get it.

All of our regular students attend classes, whether you know it or not. I get you here once a week, as a rule, but I also get you in other dimensions of reality. You all have tasks to perform. Some of you do help persons who have immediately left this system to acclimate to the new conditions. You are smarter when you are asleep than when you are awake. You are learning as much then, therefore, as you do between lives. That is a point that I wanted to make. In your waking existence you are simply focused upon physical reality. When the body sleeps you are no longer focused within it, instead you embark upon other adventures and, in your terms, you advance your own education.

(To Sue.)Now, our Mathilda over here, you see I am not looking at her, is becoming more and more aware of her nightly adventures.

(To Theodore.) And I expect over here, for our Dean, a return to the Great Hall and there you should receive your own answer to the question that you asked earlier, but if for any reason you do not, then I will answer it for you. I am interested in helping you develop your own abilities—therefore, I answer those questions that I think you will not be able to answer for yourselves for a while and those answers that you will receive yourselves I leave open. I like to make you work, it is good for you.
