“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(In this noon’s mail Jane received from her editor, Tam Mossman, an early printer’s proof of the book jacket for The Afterdeath Journal of an American Philosopher: The World View of William James. This is the first time we’ve seen the design, and we like it very much: The long title, along with Jane’s name and Introduction by Seth, are well arranged in subtle pastel colors against a deep blue background. However, this proof doesn’t contain the copy that Tam will prepare for the inside flaps and the back of the jacket.¹)

Consciousness forms the genes, and not the other way around, and the about-to-be-born infant is the agency that adds new material through the chromosomal structure.² The child is from birth far more aware of all kinds of physical events than is realized also. But beside that, the child uses the early years to explore — particularly in the dream state — other kinds of material that suit its own fancies and intents, and it constantly receives a stream of information that is not at all dependent upon its heredity or environment.
