“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“I have another question,” I told Seth before he could say goodnight. “It’s about my dream last Sunday morning, when I was climbing the church steeple that reached way above me into the sky. Only I couldn’t do it and came back down.”)

The dream is self-explanatory. You represented yourself, and yet you also represented your idea of the species in its relationship to the acquisition of any ultimate knowledge. For one thing, the dream represented an attitude, of course, that truth was something apart from man, hopefully to be acquired, and definitely involving an ascent.

Such a quest, indeed, seems almost impossible. In the framework of the dream, then, you and mankind seemingly could not succeed. Truth does not exist on the vertical. No particular structure of knowledge can lead you to it. This does not mean that truth is unavailable. It simply means it is not structured in the usual way—and it even means that in Framework 1 it cannot be proven—for what can be proven in Framework 1 must always be relative.

In a strange fashion, the dream process in which your dream occurred was truth. The creative energy that fashioned the dream was truth—though the questioning kind of attitude you had in the dream of itself would make truth seem always unavailable.

Then I bid you a fond good night. It was very good—it was your dream.
