“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Some of the most sophisticated art is from the past. Bleed-throughs result in its being picked up in your present. Theoretically all of the information of so-called lost civilizations is quite available to you, as yours is to them. A closed mind will perceive none of this.

In terms of experience humanity is working out its problems and challenges end in 20th century terms and in the old Sumerian (spelled) civilization. You simply choose various kinds of organizational structures and different root assumptions—all however within the general root assumptions used for physical existence.

The conscious intent however directs the kind of material you receive. If you have no interest in such things no phenomena will occur strong enough to impress you in the waking state. It is very possible then to be building a civilization that in your terms you are now studying, to be interpreting ancient records that you yourself may have written, to be digging up roads that you yourself built.

(9:47.) This applies to your own historical time as well as to others. At other layers of course your civilization is already in the past, as in others your civilization does not yet exist. The bleed-throughs however mean that each people according to their characteristic, interests and activities, attract certain ideas both from the future and the past, and there is constant interaction. Because of this even the past as you think of it, as I told you, is never done and completed, but constantly changed by your present and future.
