“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Each of you in this room can free your own consciousnesses, expand your awareness of identity now, and in your own ways you are beginning to do so. Now in your quiet moments you still identify with the body and think, I am this flesh and I am imprisoned within it and when it is gone then I am done, and these thoughts inhibit your freedom. This will also inhibit you at the time of death for to the extent that you hold them, your emotions will cling to the flesh when instead you should be free of it.

There is a freedom involved in knowing yourself as you are and as you were in your terms, and as you will be in your terms. You can perceive the future as you can perceive the past, again speaking in your terms only. You react to the future today. You simply do not think that you do and you do not connect your actions today with the information that you will perceive tomorrow and so your own reactions escape you.

It does you all good to think for yourselves in class and not have me around telling you how to think of time. Thinking should be your own thing and so should feeling. And while I have been egotistical in many of my lives, I do not need you all to set me up as an authority figure to whom you can relate so I would like to see some freedom on your own parts directed and applied.

But each of the others of you in your own way, still cling to the old methods. You do not really trust yourselves to put these ideas into practice, to trust your lives with them and until you trust your lives with them, you will not see the fruits. The props are beautiful, they are yours and you have created them. And do not ask me what I mean by props for each of you secretly know well what I mean, in your own lives. You must dispense with the props for each one that you hold secretly in your mind holds you back from freedom.
