“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The immediately preceding pages contain the session for Jane’s ESP class of Tuesday, August 20, 1968. This is a very good session, dealing with probabilities, personal consciousness of many kinds, electrical realities, etc. Some of the data on body consciousness has not been presented in just this way by Seth during regular sessions.

They do not suppose any given time system to have any reality of its own. Such systems do not use the consecutive structure of your own however. In much the same manner materializations of a kind may be utilized, but the personalities do not give the materializations any reality outside of themselves. They know the origin of images.

It is rather difficult for those who have not been in your system to understand that you give time and images a reality of their own, as if they existed apart from you. Form does not necessarily presuppose the existence of images. (Long pause.) Give us a moment here.

Form is not dependent upon mass. This comes closer to what I am trying to tell you. In your time system the growth of mass seems to be dependent upon continuity of moments. Time has nothing to do with form, however.

Such personalities will concentrate their main activities in such a way that they can best affect conceptual thought, and bring about necessary changes. Many large families are representative of this group. They appear and reappear in your histories, always as dominant and significant entities. Here the family represents an entity who has taken upon itself the nurturing of your civilization. Knowing intuitively those changes which must come about in your future, they try to bring them about by appearing in your past; though to them your future and the past are the same they must still work within probabilities, you see, and what they are doing is affecting probabilities within your system. Even your time is basically plastic, though it does not seem so to you.
