“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. (Pause; emphatic:) you did not bring forth response from one another. This perhaps is more important. You did not challenge one another. You may have gotten along quite well with each other. Do you see?

No strong love was generated. If ever a hatred was generated, then the relationship usually continued in one way or another through several existences. It would be worked out, you see.

There are no barriers as far as development and experience are concerned, nor to creativity. A personality then, starting out with one main purpose, may find itself involved in experience that opens new areas, and it may pursue them. In nontime there is full recognition and sometimes use of time systems, but the personality realizes that it dwells in nontime, and it forms a time schedule or system to get where it wants to go in the same way that you would make a road or path.

Sometimes the road or path may be used by others, and sometimes not. Now, many personalities may work together to form a time system, as many men may labor to form a national highway. One personality may also form for his own purposes a time system of his own, as a man might make a path to his own garden.

(9:39. Jane left trance easily. However it was a good one, she said; Seth was coming through strong, yet she could remember parts of the material concerning multidimensional personalities. Pace generally slow. Resume at 9:53.)

Now. Time then is an aid in one way, and it is used by multidimensional personalities for their own benefit. Use again the analogy of a road. Other dimensional personalities realize that they are perfectly free to leave the road, and that much more exists on all sides.

In your theory of time however you believe yourselves bound to the road, do not realize that you have made it, and are unable to perceive other realities. You have chosen to do this however. Since you are learning and can only handle so many perceptions, you have forgotten that you have created the road. Multidimensional personalities do not need to forget. They are also aware of different such devices formed by others. (One minute pause; eyes closed.)

There are in other words many other kinds of time systems that are constructed, beside the one you know dealing with continuity of moments. The probable systems could be called time systems, only their experience is highly organized in a different fashion, and continual moments do not exist in your terms.

(10:16. Jane kept on speaking as Seth.) You could say that various time systems are like games, and there are many of them; and in each one the rules and the goals are different. In your system one of the rules is that you forget you are playing a game in order to concentrate better on the affairs at hand.

Your own race is the only one who plays with any facility. Other myriad life forms have nothing to do with it at all. You merely transpose your values upon them. They do not experience time as you do.

(10:45. Jane again came out of trance rather easily, although it had been a good one. I explained that by the question I didn’t mean I wanted a host of predictions or gaudy claims; I was merely curious to see what Seth might say concerning the two guests we expected. I thought Jane might benefit from the data. I didn’t realize it was so late when I asked the question however, and so told Jane to forget it if she wanted to, and to consider the session over. This developed.
