“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. You and he had both come from another direction. The messages represent (pause) philosophies and ideas (pause) that the Seth material and his work will change. The dream is personal and yet more than this, these messages and philosophies will be buried not only by the material but by psychic awareness on the part of many individuals like yourselves.

Now the plain was empty. The people coming in from the left represented later generations, in your terms, who had not yet arrived at the plain. The people to the right were those who had already passed beyond it. The plain was empty because it was the repository of ideas. The ideas had been put there by those who had already left.

The old ideas had not been wiped out. The new ideas had not yet taken hold. Part of your responsibility will be to tread upon the old ideas, to clear the distortions; and Ruburt, realizing this, hesitated, but he recognized in the dream exactly what was involved.

When he begins to walk across the sand, and you with him, new messages will appear there. They will be a signal for those people on the left. In your terms those people will be drastically different than those who have gone before. They will not walk upon the old ideas nor dwell within their reality.

(Jane was gesturing quite emphatically in here, arms and hands echoing her words, eyes open and very dark, etc.) Now the crest. This represents the concept that these ideas will be so given that they become the springs which will bring new nourishment to an arid world psyche.

The people represent those who still have past and future lives in your terms. Your development now will be different. Your challenge and responsibility is also different. For you must go across that plain of ideas, you see, transposing others, and you must go together. And while there are others, you will not be aware of them. You will not have them, in your time, for comfort, and so it will seem to you that you are alone, and that you are set apart from those both coming and going.

So also Ruburt felt. (Jane learned forward, quite intent.) It was safer where he was, and he hesitated to take that first step. And the step is the publication of the book, and the ideas that it entails.

It reacts strongly to your ideas and to its father’s telepathically, and so its inner perception of this room, say, is highly colored by your ideas of it. It then mentally perceives the room, right now, more or less as a combination of those ideas you have individually of it. (Pause.)
