“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I would like to give you some more material this evening concerning our inverted time system, for when you understand how it operates then you can begin to take advantage of it more readily.

I would like these points made most clearly. Now. An event foreseen through precognition or clairvoyance, a future event, may or may not actually occur within time as you know it. For you are seeing into probabilities, and the probable event may or may not occur, within your time system.

In such a system therefore your ideas of present, past and future would not exist. Nor would your idea of one and only one event at a time be understood. Now this dimension exists in a reality which Priestley nor Dunne even began to examine.

The psychological composition of the perceiving participator is therefore entirely alien to your own. In such a system however, as in your own, the perceiver is also a participator and a creator, but he does not work with your conception of time, but with probabilities. In your terms then, he would seem to delve into each moment in all of its probabilities, so that in your time on the one hand many centuries would have passed, and on the other hand only an instant.

There would be many respects however where they would not agree, and I mention this similarity only to make my idea somewhat more clear to you.

(“12th Street.” John now told us that he took several meals in the Manger Hotel—pronounced with a hard G—and had some business engagements there also. This hotel is on either 12th or 13th St. in Cleveland; John was not positive, but felt the address would be 12th Street rather than 13th Street.

The connection should be rather apparent, and beginnings are already known. Events will take place, in the main, as I said that they would.

(Seth’s predictions for Searle include the loss of power for the current vice president, who is the son of the company’s founder, although the son may retain a titular chair. There is to be a drastic reorganization, finally, after all else fails. John, according to Seth, would be wise to remain with the company, for eventually things will work out well. Seth told John he could go as far as he desired in the company. John has been sounded out before by high officials, and was again at this Cleveland meeting.

(As John explained company politics to us now, he said he thought he saw a connection with Seth’s mention of an “apartment.” on page 235. It will be remembered that at first John could offer nothing for this data. Mr. McKeown, John said, had gone so far as to invite him up to his private room at the Sheraton-Hilton, for more secluded talks involving the company. At the time John was somewhat surprised that a high company official would pay particular attention to him. It was during such meetings as this, and those at the Manger, that the sounding-out process commenced.
