“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now if you would each, for ten minutes a day, open yourselves to your own reality there would be no question of self-justification for you would realize the miraculous nature of your own identity. I have said this before in class, you are as dead now, and as alive now, as you will ever be. In life you can be as dead as you think any corpse is, by contrast far deader.

Now, when I come here to speak I focus my energy, not toward this room as a destination, for this room, in your terms, does not exist to me but in these terms, this room does not exist to you. You pretend to agree that the room exists and so we meet in no place of space or time. The true meetings that take place here have nothing to do with the room or the people that you think you are. You know that you hallucinate the room. You know that you are as much in trance here as you ever are when you are in psy-time or when you are making an effort to look inward. I simply want you to realize that if this life is a trance you can turn the direction of your consciousness in other ways and perceive greater realities that presently exist. That you can be aware of your own greater identity even as I am aware of it. That you sit within the miracle of yourselves and then ask for signs, it is your inner eyes I would open.

By the whole self indeed. Remember, when we speak of other personalities, again, this is only for convenience sake. This is your entire identity of which we are speaking. It is only you who are presently aware but of one portion and this portion you insist upon calling yourself. You are the self who makes these decisions.

Your main point of contention is brought about by the emotional barriers that are caused by the difference in terms. It is as if for a day you choose to work, say in the slums. It would be ridiculous for you to choose to work in the slums and then say to yourself, why did I choose to work in the slums? I would prefer to work on Fifth Avenue. You know the reason and your entire identity knows the reason. You hide them from the present self simply to insure the fact that the reality is not a pretended one.

He knew. You insist upon equating identity with the ego so if the ego does not know, you say he did not know. The ego is merely the tiny pinhead that sticks up and pierces physical reality. It is the tiniest portion of him that he did not inform.
