“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(To Mark.) And, our friend over here, I thank you for the work involved. I am delighted that you made the progress, and I will not say anything else.

I have told no secrets. I am very afraid to tell you that I have forgotten what I considered secrets through the lives that I have lived. I certainly know that, like any of you in the past, I have not always been charitable. I know that I have hated one parent or another. I know, certainly, once that I plundered in the wages of war. I do not come to you as someone who does not know what it is like to be human. And in those personality characteristics that I use when I speak to you, I show you that the emotional life continues.

Now some of this is, indeed, a translation or, again, you would be speaking with Seth II, yet what I am continues to exist. And the, I hope, the delightfully human egotistical characteristics that I show help calm your fears and show you that the self as you think of it, continues to exist. I have a reservoir of personality banks upon which I can draw, and as a teacher I use the one that is most effective in any given system of reality and this is the one that I use here. It is a portion of myself that is the most closely connected with earthly existence, and it is a self that I like very well, indeed.

(To Gert.) I want you to work on your own because your favorite propensity is to rely upon authority and I am quite sure that you understand this. I wanted it said, however.

(Seth II:)(Words lost)...observed then realize that we are highly interested in such experiments as Seth is conducting, and that as we observe you, so do you, though unconsciously, observe other realities in your sleep state. If our reality seems strange to you then yours seems strange to us. We move through systems such as yours faster than the speed of light, and so what I am saying is already a translation and, in your terms, a message left in the past of your time. Your own consciousness also travels faster than the speed of light, and big portions of you does understand, to some degree, the nature of our reality. At least it has an innate comprehension of the probabilities in which you exist. There are portions of your own identity, in other terms, that dwell in these probable systems that have not known physical reality and that come to observe those portions of itself that have so developed in that fashion. And so do we observe and does yourself serve as a translator in our behalf. Unfortunately, we do not communicate easily with the portion of you that can understand. You are not in communication with that portion of yourselves that is not physical, that was never physical and that will not know physical existence at all, and since you identify with the physical self then, indeed, we come to you in the guise of ghosts that you do not understand our forms that you cannot see. And yet, since we seeded the universe in which you have your present existence then do we observe, and do we watch, and do we have concern.

You will all find your own blessings I am sure. I bid you then a hearty good evening and my best wishes to you all.
