“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You are dealing here, and in this particular case, with probabilities. You had two main levels of development that you could have followed in this existence. They were diverse but in both, in the main, you would have been working toward the same objectives. And in one you would have devoted your existence to studying the inner nature of reality. You would have been contemplative. Now to the extreme you would have joined an order, for awhile, of a religious nature and later you would have left it. You would have had neither wife nor child. Your questioning nature would have followed the aesthetic life with devotion and without deviation.

Now what makes you ask the question or doubt that any reality could be without it, for it is the basis for any reality that any consciousness knows. If it would not be love, then I would not be here, and if it were not for love, you would not have the planet that you know. Your negative emotions appear to you quite obviously as ill health and wars and desolation, and when something is wrong you recognize them. But the innate love within you, that you are often too embarrassed to express, forms the planet that you know, the physical bodies that you inhabit, the seasons and the reality in which you presently have your existence. And love also forms a framework in which I have my existence. Hopefully, those in my sphere of existence realize that all ends are creative.

Everyone here knows, each of you know, what I am up to by now, and you know when I am ready to begin to tell you.

You can, as our friend here (Sally) calls and then falls back. But you know, as I have told you often, that spirituality is not a thin-blooded intellectual concept divorced from the emotions that you know. That spirituality is as dignified as brother Theodore’s idiot flower is dignified, or as dignified as a wasp, or as our beloved monster here (Willie the cat). That it does not need a dour face nor long dark thoughts, and that it speaks like our friend over here.

Now there are relationships still to be worked out among you, and I will point them out. For before you have a firm foundation of trust these matters must be both faced and settled. They may appear to you, or they may affect some of you to varying degrees, but, in any case, you must work them out. Now one was mentioned by you earlier this evening (Gert). Do you follow me? The other involves this one over here (Bette) and brother Joel. These are the main areas at this point.
