“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You form or create your lows. Sometimes you choose them for purposes of growth. Other times, they are the results of your own ignorance at any given point and basically unnecessary. If you are in the habit, for example, of deep negative thought then you will attract to yourself negative feelings and experience deep depression. Now, if you learn from these, then from your standpoint, this is a point of growth and you progress. But many people do not learn for some time, in your terms, and continue in such periods when they are not necessary.

(To Sue.) For this one over here, no probable self is at the mercy of negative thoughts of yours.

Each consciousness has its own responsibility for those thoughts and emotions and it accepts and originates. The personality in its entirety includes, therefore, probable selves of which you are presently unaware. This does nothing to negate the validity and integrity of the self that you know. The divisions are illusions and when you wake up to yourself, to your true self, then you are aware of these other portions of your personality.
