“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your civilization has decided upon certain beliefs of a quite contradictory nature, however. Animals know that the present is the point of power, of course. They do not have any other kind of time to contend with in the same way that you do.

I do not want to go into the complicated reasons why your civilization chose such beliefs, but you are everywhere presented with their effects. In your historical times, no civilization has been based upon the precepts I have given you. Children also know that the present is the point of power, and that precept is a biological truth, for the physical body in your terms cannot act in the future or in the past, but only in its contact with the present moment.

You have often allowed old beliefs to the contrary to inhibit the exercise of your own mental acuity. You can indeed change that, but you must realize it, and want actively to do so. You must stop reinforcing the negative suggestion, and instead when you leave your desk tell yourself that when you return you will pick up your work where you left off easily and naturally.

(9:57.) Give us a moment.... Overall, you have been doing well. Remember the change in focus I spoke of at our last session. Your intent to put these ideas to work builds an inner psychological support, and the more you act upon the beliefs the more that support grows.

You have been changing the beliefs of a lifetime, and you are helping others do the same. Such desires and the challenges mean that you are provided with additional energy and support in Framework 2, but you must have the faith that this is so, and that faith will allow you to draw upon it.
