“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Early this month Jane and I bought an anthology containing a long section by Carl Jung, the Swiss psychoanalyst who died in 1961. Jane hadn’t finished reading this part of the book when Seth suggested, in the 554th session for October 19, that she lay the book aside: “Let Jung go for now.” He did not elaborate. This wasn’t Jane’s first contact with the writings of Jung by any means.

Now: We will begin dictation.

Now: Our next chapter will be called: “Reincarnation, Dreams, and the Hidden Male and Female Within the Self.”

(By now Jane’s pace had quickened a good deal.)

Now: The animus and the anima are, of course, highly charged psychically, but the origin of this psychic charge and the inner fascination are the result of a quite legitimate inner identification with these personified other-sex characteristics.

Each inner self, adopting a new body, imposes upon it and upon its entire genetic makeup, memory of the past physical forms in which it has been involved. Now the present characteristics usually overshadow the past ones. They are dominant, but the other characteristics are latent and present, built into the pattern. The physical pattern of the present body, therefore, is a genetic memory of the self’s past physical forms, and of their strengths and weaknesses. (10:29. Jane rubbed her eyes; she was speaking slowly, with many pauses.)

(10:45. Once out of trance, Jane said she now felt as good or better than she had before the session began. She was surprised at the sudden ending. She had felt “really passive” during the session, and I had listened to her pace grow slower and slower as the session progressed.)
