“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane began dictating in a rather normal voice. Through most of the session her delivery was rather slow, yet not as slow for the most part as the last, 60th, session. Although she still chose her words carefully, still there was not the straining and searching attitude so noticeable last time. Her eyes darkened as usual and she paced at her usual moderate rate.)

We will probably not have a full session this evening, since really I treated Ruburt so poorly during our last two sessions. I had indeed intended initially to have a short session last time, but because the material — please appreciate my pun—on material was coming through so well, I continued.

A few things should be clear by now. There is an interaction that I have yet to explain to you, between time as you know it, and material. Basically material is spontaneous and instantaneous, as I told you. The change in it that you seem to perceive is illusion.

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.

In the meantime, the sessions will vary in the amount of energy used, for many reasons, some having to do with particular material itself. For this reason you will need some rest at times; and I hereby say good evening regretfully, most regretfully.
