“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Physical reality is therefore glimpsed by other kinds of personalities in other systems, from their own unique viewpoint. Peering at it from this angle, so to speak, you would not recognize it as your own home system. From some of these viewpoints, your physical matter has little or no permanency, while to others your own thoughts have a shape and form, perceived by observers but not by yourselves.

In traveling through the states of consciousness, these other personalities would try to attain some focus and perceive your environment, trying to make sense of data with which they are largely unacquainted. Since many of them are unaware of your idea of time, they would find it difficult to understand that you perceive events with intervals between, and would not perceive the inner organization that you thrust upon your normal environment. Yours is obviously a probable system to other fields also touched by the field of probabilities.

Then present these to me at our next session, or one at a time, or two, as you prefer, and I will answer them. You may organize the questions under headings, but you need not do so. If several happen to fall under one large subject heading, this would simply be a convenient way of handling it.

(Jane hasn’t read any of Seth’s book since the 521st session, in Chapter Four; in spite of temptations, she has always felt it better to be free of concern about it. We didn’t think her not looking at it would interfere with her having questions. She has of course had contacts with the book, aside from her own imperfect memory. I gave her a couple of short passages to read to her ESP class. She discussed the book to some extent with Patty Middleton recently; and I’ve talked about it at times, although without referring back to the typed page.
