“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

While the cells required future and past data, and used it to form from that invisible tension the body’s present corporal reality, the same kind of information could be a threat then to the ego consciousness, which could be overwhelmed. Within the corporal structure, however, there are indeed messages that leap too quickly or too slowly² from your viewpoint to allow for any physical response. In that way cellular comprehension is allowed its free flow; but the selectivity mentioned (in sessions 682–3) bypasses such information, so that it does not conflict with present sense data requiring physical action in time.

(Jane said that I might better ask questions only during break, at least for now. My inquiry about early man hadn’t “seriously” disturbed her; but I’d been correct in feeling that I shouldn’t have interrupted her then. She also talked about possible confusions or conflicts between Seth doing “Unknown” Reality while she was writing her own Adventures in Consciousness. She’s had no trouble, however, and is still enthusiastic about her book; she’s putting Chapter 4 into final form. Adventures is due at her publishers, Prentice-Hall, Inc., in September 1974.
