“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, mankind builds civilizations. He has gone beyond the child’s game. The toys are real, and yet basically the analogy holds. I am not condoning those violences that occur. The fact is that they can never be condoned, and yet they must be understood for what they are: man, learning through his own errors. He also learns by his successes, and there are times when he holds his hand, moments of deliberation, periods of creativity. (Pause.) Identities take many roles in many lives.

Now: the weapons and destruction are the obvious things that you see. The counterparts are not so evident, and yet it is the counterparts that are important: the self-discipline learned, the control, the compassion that finally is aroused, and the final and last lesson learned—the positive desire for creativity and love over destruction and hatred. When this is learned, the reincarnational cycle is finished.

There is a reason why these lessons must be learned in just this way. Elementally there is only creativity. Destruction is merely the changing of form. A cloudburst or a tornado knows nothing of destruction. This same energy encased within a human form is something else. There are different kinds of creativity, then, that must be learned, and a specialization in energy’s focus and feelings that emerges—elemental energy becoming conscious of itself and aware of issues that did not exist for it “earlier;” millions of molecules momentarily united with living consciousness, filled with primal energy, now learning love and forming highly sensitive psychic patterns; electrical charges that now form emotions instead of clouds; the innocent chaos of undifferentiated personality that exists behind the highly specified and truly sophisticated mechanism of one thought. And all of this before an individual is born within your system! In terms of time, this is behind us all.

Little wonder that psychic battles wage. And yet beyond your system there are refinements impossible to describe and further developments more miraculous than those that have gone before. And through all of this, the entity formed from that massive chaos retains its identity and its knowledge of its “pasts” and continues to grow in creativity.

Many of the participators have never known that they had access to such energy; therefore, the notion that it could be used creatively never entered their heads. Many of them felt tiny, alone, and powerless. Now the energy itself was exhilarating. For the first time, many of the participators realized intuitively that such energy was also the source of creativity. A good number of them will try various methods of reexperiencing this energy in order to release creative feelings they did not know they possessed. The energy, of course, was neutral. It was their use of it at the time that caused the destructive elements.
