“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

As a matter of fact, as mentioned many times, the past itself is not finished. In a manner of speaking, future lives are not “there” as completed entities to be grasped, either. It is most difficult to explain, since all lives are being creatively formed simultaneously. You do have “future selves.” In your terms those selves often give you information, advice, and inspiration, planting in their own pasts the events that “will” bring about their present. Period.

Each entity, for example, is different from any other, and will seek different kinds of focuses and intents. There are vast individual differences operating there also. One entity might focus its main energy, intent, and drive in one particular earth life, filled with incredible creativity, so that that “focus life” becomes a central core for all other existences, the foundation and the source of energy for all other lives.

This does not mean that those other lives are subordinate. Other entities might spread their creativity and focus more equally over many lives. But in all cases the entity is simply the part of the self that cannot fit into one life alone. It is not, for example, an alien superself. When you go on a journey you cannot take your home with you—only certain luggage. In physical life, you cannot take your entire entity with you—only the part of it that you call yourself. And you are well-equipped with the proper passports, and inoculated with certain root assumptions.

The Oversoul Seven books are the result of a playful creativity, a free following of creative impetus. As he supposes, he became worried about the Christ satire. This harks back to old concerns, but was also tied into current events, and the growth of fundamentalism lately.

James was serious and concerned. Seven was poking fun at religious conventions. All Ruburt has to do is to tell himself again to trust the thrust of his own creativity, and let himself go along with it, and there will be no problem.
