“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now good evening. You can hardly be in the middle because there is no beginning or end. I am pleased to meet you both. He (referring to Baba) is not who he says he is; nevertheless he speaks the truth. He is a part of who he says he is, as indeed I am. When you read our material, there will be one issue in particular on which you will not agree. You will later agree. I am coming in softly, you see. I am coming in very quietly indeed, so that I do not startle or frighten Ruburt. He is very easily startled.

I am speaking now for your convenience simply. There are four cornerstone personalities involved in your seminar. Now three of these personalities are yours: one is not yours. One is not “yours" in your terms as of this time. When you look up and recognize, you will accept that which you do not now recognize as yourself, as yourself. If you looked up now, you would not recognize the self that you will recognize. Because the Spacious Present exists as it is, the recognition has already been made. You have not yet caught up with it, you see. You are slowpokes. My friend Ruburt in many respects is also a slowpoke. The environment is not where you think it is. I refer to these seminars. The voice that does not “speak" in your terms is yours, but the instructor is not yourself as you know yourself. It is a self you do not as yet know in your terms.

Now I speak from several layers, though the word “speak" is a poor one, I turn myself, you see, into steps down which I walk and the steps represent what you would term personality fragments, though the term is distortive. I speak on a level that you can all understand. I have been to your seminar—not your seminar—but ones much like them in what you would term the past. I attend my own and I give my own. I am broken up into highly energized personality fragments of my own accord, you see. The breaking up itself is an illusion. Those who wish to learn will be found by others like me—individualized and equipped because of their own internal structures to communicate and to receive communications from them. You must have your own circuit through.

Now I will not be any old fogy this evening. I would prefer some lively conversation and I am indeed open to any questions that you might have.

These are impressions: two people in particular. (Am not sure here.) One older than the others—perhaps (now, perhaps) 48—some difficulty and misunderstandings connected with him. A “D" and an “H". The project can succeed if purity of intent is retained. There is someone I believe approximately 23 years old who would be dropped.

The person will cause strong difficulties through overenthusiastic reactions and through some connections on which I am not clear with the person’s parent—I believe a mother.

I am indeed.

([Gene]: “Suppose someone has yet to learn who they are? I am afraid we are quibbling over teaching techniques. Let me put a question bluntly. What would you do in my shoes?”)

To give it a name is unfortunate. We have not used a name in our sessions. I would call it IGNAPTHA, which is a poor approximation of the term I am trying to express. In your terms perhaps the whole self constantly expressing itself and that which is knowing itself in all its possibilities.
