“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

All plants have minds. They may not have physical brains but they all have minds of their own as you would interpret it, and they are highly active. There are many more experiments that you can do, and I hope that you will, with the nature of plant activity and consciousness. It will help you all to get out of yourselves to some extent and for the following week for regular students there is something that I want you to do, and it is this. For one week stop asking questions of the universe and simply listen to what it has to say to you. As soon as you ask questions, you are necessarily directing information in a certain manner which is all right, but for counterpoint this week simply listen.

Now I have let you all play and it is good for you. It is like using your physical muscles, but beyond the playing that you are doing there are also more important issues, and you should learn of them. There should be questions in your mind besides, what was I in the previous life? How do I relate to others? How am I doing? Am I good or am I bad? Such as, what is the nature of reality?

What does the air mean when it swirls about the windows? How is this related to the nature of reality, for it is? You are focusing your questions too deeply upon yourselves and in so doing you are cutting down the kind of information that you can receive.

Now I want you all to ease up and realize that you are also your entities now. The deeper self wants you to become familiar with its own identity. The reincarnational material is excellent, but many of you have been overemphasizing it so that it serves to set up separations within you, and you think in terms of separate selves and this is not the case. That is why I want you to be more open this week. To listen uncritically. To not set the bands or questions of any specific nature but to listen as you go about your day. To listen to the day.
