“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The basis and firm groundwork of the material, and its primary contribution, lies in the concept that consciousness itself indeed creates matter, that consciousness is not imprisoned by matter but forms it, and that consciousness is not limited or bound by time or space; time and space in your terms being necessary distortions, or adopted conditions, forming a strata for physical existence.

The basic idea of the material should be stressed, however, and strongly, since it is from this that our other concepts emerge. The mechanisms by which psychic energy or consciousness forms matter should also be included, and naturally the concept that matter does not have duration.

You cannot include all the material in one book, obviously. That is why I would like the matters mentioned above to be definitely included in the first book, as other books will be based upon them.

I speak not because I think that either of you will allow yourselves to follow my suggestions in this particular matter, but merely to tell you what could be done to, or for, all of our benefits.

The book is not something that can be done in between times, as there should be a grouping of subject matter, rather than a strict page by page rendition. I did say however that whenever possible, and as a rule, my words should be exactly quoted. The suggestion I have just given you is the one way which will give you the swiftest and most advantageous progress; and also when the book is ready under this schedule the time would be ripe.

You should be able, through using them, to manipulate matter more advantageously. I will put this in very simple terms.
