“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The problems arise in response to ideas that you once accepted as facts of life —ideas that have indeed exerted great sway—ideas that are responsible for much of the world’s woe. (Pause.) Our version of reality had to emerge in the midst of that environment. For a while it had to be tested in the world of beliefs that you knew, even while the evidence seemed to be on the side of official pronouncements.

You made brave breakthroughs, for the sessions never would have begun or continued—but to maintain your peace of mind you still had to keep your mental footing in the world of those old beliefs. It might have seemed sometimes that our ideas were fanciful projections, hoped-for but unreal hypotheses that had their own important intrinsic creative value, but did not necessarily stand for any real statements of fact about the physical universe.

In the same way, however, you almost programmed yourselves to react in certain physical fashions, and for the same reasons. Our ideas are as close to fact as you can get, granting the necessary translations, and as you build your lives on those frameworks you will no longer be programmed, reacting to erroneous “facts” as if they had a basis in reality.
