“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane called me for the session at about 8:10. She was very relaxed—very —but felt Seth around and decided to have a session, or at least try to. She thought Seth might talk about some of the letters she’d answered today, as well as some ideas of her own. During the past week she must have dealt with over 80 letters—with another group answered just before that batch bringing the total to well over 100. The mail appears to have increased in volume, at least for this time of year. It’s difficult to tell —although if she takes a couple of weeks off from answering mail, as she had done, then the amount we do get quickly becomes apparent in a new way: sheer bulk.

(8:43.) In that framework it almost seems as if the most natural wish would be the wish to live one life for some kind of eternal duration. In that framework it seems as if people are cut down in their primes often, despite their own wishes, desires or intents, and it is taken for granted that death is the undesired, unwanted, unsought victor over creatures whose natural desires lead them to fight for natural survival at all costs. Certainly this suggests an almost unbearable cruelty, thrust upon nature’s framework. (Long pause.) The impulse toward life is indeed strong, brilliant and enduring. Each individual knows, however, that more than one lifetime is involved, and carries within it—as indeed the animals do—the knowledge that earth’s existence is in time and space, meaning that a certain turnover is necessarily implied.
