“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

“Toward the end of the material (in the second statement) I briefly thought the Seth level might be involved, but the wording didn’t come through as automatically and smoothly as it does with Seth, and I didn’t feel his … personality. The information referred to me as Ruburt, though, which automatically meant that it was from a ‘higher’ or other level than the Ruburt one. Yet I dislike the connotations called up by my use of the word ‘higher’ here.

“Using these side pockets or pools where data are still unprocessed, in our terms, you can pick up several other strands of your own consciousness ‘at once,’ though retention may be difficult. Explaining the experience to the normal consciousness automatically helps expand it (the normal consciousness), so that each time the process becomes easier. Until, with practice, experience and data from several areas can be held simultaneously. The difficulty then is a translation in linear terms, hence Ruburt’s trouble in the Saratoga episode.”

(Now here, Jane told me later, she began moving into a different, hard-to-define, “strange” state of altered awareness. At the same time she began casting her material in the third person. Ruburt, “him,” “he” — entered in; yet [as she was to note in a subsequent statement] she wasn’t picking up on Seth:)

“Ruburt’s difficulty, anger, and impatience last night³ resulted from initial problems of translating multidimensional experience into linear terms and thought patterns. Fresh material was being born anew in the past, and he didn’t know how to fit it into his time scheme.”

[...] Wait — just now as I wrote this I picked up something [from a part of my consciousness other than Ruburt or Seth], to the effect that the projection environment is as focused as mine is, really, but that it’s a probability of mine. [...]
