“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Ruburt demanded utmost obedience. He lived for the cause. Many were killed upon his word. His sense of energy was boundless, and he was convinced of his purpose. Toward the end of a long life, however, he began to doubt. Life was cheap. Give us a moment.

The energy from that time, the disturbance between Christendom and the East, generated such energy—very simply put, now—that the physical times could not contain it and it erupted, in your terms, into the future.

As an analogy, most events are this high. (Jane held up her cigarette lighter.) The events in the times of the Crusades, for example, were this high. (Jane raised an arm over her head, full length.) Following the analogy the times, the physical times in which they would ordinarily have occurred, would have ended, say, here—(Jane indicated a spot six inches above the lighter)—but the energy was so great that it catapulted some of these events, displacing what you think of as time, so that they appeared, as Hitler did, where theoretically, now, they should not have.

Now man, despite all appearances, is always dealing with the nature of reality, and his historical periods are simply areas in which different methods and ways are tried—all, as he learns to manipulate and use the energy of which he and his world are composed. And all of these, therefore, these searches, exist at once in greater terms.

All of those involved in the Ottoman Empire had their reasons therefore, tell Ruburt, and the victims acquiesced to the basic assumptions of the time, as much as you and Ruburt did. The energy released was fantastic. It also involved the opening of many channels through which sheer vitality was made accessible and served as an impetus against which man could judge his progress.

The Ottoman Empire’s death in its own way regenerated Europe, and its energy gave birth to the civilization that you know. The death of the Ottoman Empire enriched Europe. The pagan “Joy of life” in its own way sparked new blood. Christendom would have died out otherwise, for it was already tired. Unwittingly therefore Ruburt aided the growth of Christendom as it became known.
