“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(We hadn’t expected that he’d deal with either topic in tonight’s session, since we hadn’t asked that he consider them. Seth’s presentations clearly illuminate the subject matter of both Jane’s dream and our questions about evolution. First he went into Jane’s dream per se, then continued as follows.)

In those terms there was a point where consciousness impressed itself into matter through intent, or formed itself into matter. That “breakthrough” cannot be logically explained, but only compared to, say, an illumination — that is, a light everywhere occurring at once, that became a medium for life in your terms. It had nothing to do with the propensity of certain kinds of cells to reproduce, but with an overall illumination that set the conditions in which life as you think of it was possible — and at that imaginary hypothetical point, all species became latent.

There was no point at which consciousness was introduced, because consciousness was the illumination from which the first cells emerged. That illumination was everywhere then at every point aware of itself, and of the conditions formed by its presence. In your terms each species is aware of the conditions of each other species, and of the entire environment. In those terms the environment forms the species and the species forms the environment.
