“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The portrait referred to by Seth happened to hang on a wall facing Jane this evening. In the 168th session, Seth stated the painting represented him, but he did not say in which life. The idea “came” to me one day and I painted the portrait without a model. It is quite successful, and depicts an elderly, rotund, bald man standing by a window through which strong light streams. He gestures toward the viewer. As soon as I began work on it last spring, Jane insisted it was of Seth. I did not know who it represented consciously; merely that I had a very clear mental image of a face and figure to paint. The work progressed with considerable ease. See Volume 4.

I do not want to puncture idealistic balloons. Buddhists are perhaps closer, but no religion comes close really... The man or woman feeling identity with each day that passes comes close.

Sentiment is practical. The idea of birth and death each day is close. Those who cry when they hurt a flea come close... Those who appreciate the consciousness in every rock, tree, bird... come close. Fools and idiots are often wiser than the wise man. Hatred is death. All things are sacred, and every thought is a reality and has its own potential for creation and destruction.
