“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Earth, feeding her desire,

I shall be part of earth and spring again, grandfather.

(The night before I’d been working on these notes, and we talked about mysticism, among other things. Because of our discussion, Jane rose early that morning and produced several pages of material. When I got up I found within her output the paragraphs presented below. They make an excellent ending for this appendix. Although she begins by once again expressing doubts, or at least qualifications, about her mystical status, I think her comprehension that she’s part of the day, of the earth, and of time, is surely a description of her independent pursuit of the mystical way. Jane wrote:)

“… I have more sympathy and love for myself now. By making myself better I can really do something to … change a small part of the world. Maybe that’s all I’m responsible for — odd thought — what else did I, do I, feel responsible for? But if people loved the part of the earth that makes up their bodies, then they’d treat themselves more gently. And the earth would know. Like I feel the day knows, when I watch the dawn come.

“I was going back to bed when my last lines suddenly reminded me that I still feel the way I did when I was a young girl; that some part of the dawn does come for me; personally; and that to some extent time didn’t exist before I was born. My birth brought a certain element into the world that wasn’t there before. And with me, I brought time. This happens when anyone is born, but most people don’t feel it — or don’t seem to … Together all of us on earth form time and contribute to its design and to history. This happens whenever one of us is born or dies. I guess I’ve always felt that way.
