“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(By 8:45 PM no witnesses had appeared. Up from her nap, Jane was still sleepy. And again, she said that she did not feel quite as nervous before a session. She had no idea of Seth’s subject matter for the evening. Willy dozed in a chair; it was a chilly, very windy night.

What you have instead is constant, new creation of material, as energy fills the patterns. The sharpness or rigidity or quality of the perceived material depends on the energy which forms it, and the characteristics of matter therefore depend upon the position of the energy that fills the pattern; but by position, I think in terms of the arrival and departure of this energy as it passes through your field.

We will take a good amount of time to cover this and allied subjects, as we must also deal with the pattern and its source. Since matter is constantly re-created, and instantaneous, many of your ideas of time are of course distorted, since you have taken it for granted that matter changes with, or in, time. You have judged a time interval by the seeming changes in a given material object.

This refers me back to your false cause and effect theory. For practical purposes so far this theory has not been too binding, but it is becoming so. Time does not cause change in matter, appearances to the contrary. I am going to skip a giant step, and say that man himself and all conscious beings produce matter subconsciously.

I wanted to make this point, since matter is created by the subconscious, and since it exists simultaneously and instantaneously, and since its creation or arrival, and its departure or replacement, are instantaneous. Once this is understood it becomes at least theoretically possible to re-create the material of the past, in so far as the patterns for the material have been retained.

Therefore, there is what I will call the negative interval, when one pulsation has vanished from your plane and another is about to take its place. Alone, each negative interval may be negligible, but taken en masse this adds up until there is as much negative matter as there is positive matter.

Now. This physical matter on your plane we will call positive matter. To the field of negative matter, your positive matter would be termed negative. Obviously we have much material to cover, positive and negative. The point is that perception is the criteria for what you call matter. You do not perceive the negative interval. You do not perceive continuous creation of matter.

Your physical plane is not the only plane given to the manipulation of matter. It is, however, the focal point of such planes, and they are closely interwoven. The other two planes form what you may think of as the outer rims. I suggest your break.

You are indeed correct. Our negative intervals do indeed have something to do with antimatter, except that I prefer to call it negative matter. You can use whichever term you prefer.

If you will now remember that there are negative intervals, or intervals between the pulsations of energy into matter, if you will remember that your physical universe then is nonexistent for the same number of intervals that it is existent, then you will see that this gives us our antimatter.

The seeming, and for practical purposes, repulsion of so-called positive and negative matter will be explained in another session, as if I begin to develop upon this now, you will end up with a longer session, not a short one.
