“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

At times they are able to be perceived as pseudoimages. They are doing subconsciously what came naturally, attempting to form, as always, their own physical construction. However it is impossible for them to create a consistent solid image in your terms, for while they are still focused within your system the inner self knows well that the individual is finished with a given life situation, is out of alignment so to speak, and is therefore denied full use of its own energy.

In one of our earliest sessions I told you that trees have consciousness, and that consciousness resided within all things, as the plants within this room to some extent are aware of you, and the happenings here, can sense strangers, and can strongly sense emotional and psychic atmospheres, to which they do indeed react. (In Volume 1, see sessions 9 of 12/18/63, and 18 of 1/22/64.)

Ruburt was correct in his assumptions about your cat. All of this has to do with the nature of existence and personality, for your personality directly affects your plants. Personality can have a corrosive or soothing effect upon such unlikely things as the paint upon your walls. So smoothly and yet so constantly do these effects change as personalities come and go that your universe as it seems to you, seems to continue to exist.

I will comment here for all of this fits into our discussion. Existence is not a game in the terms spoken of by our Mr. Watts, though he is often on the right track. We do not have a static god, recreating himself as he is in various guises. Using those terms, we have a god constantly in the process of creation, action acting upon itself, always with new possibilities, each existence bringing forth new varieties. (Pause.) Legitimately, each personality is a co-creator, and part of All That Is, but this All That Is constantly develops, and develops in terms of growth fulfillment.

Disease is not evil, for example. The murderer kills no one, yet if his intent is to do so then he must face the consequences of his intent. Crime after death is not punished. There is no crime to be punished, but between those last two statements lies a world of understanding, and knowledge that must be attained. And punishment enters in between those two statements as the individual takes the consequence for the action and the intent.

Your point earlier is a good one. You have experience in concentration in regard to your paintings, but Ruburt has not been used to concentrating in that manner. The practice in bringing images into clear focus will help him do the same with inner information of a specific nature. Have you any questions?

They will be fully developed best, easiest, in dealing with this material and through his poetry. He set himself this main goal at a very young age. He did not know why he had the writing ability, nor what he was to do with it. He will work out the best way of doing this, for it will be a natural development, an alchemy, resulting from the nature of his own writing talents, which are considerable, his own intuitions, and the material. They will form a natural whole. They will combine to a natural art production and career.
