“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your sexuality is a point of focus, and that is all. For those of you who need it said, I say it: A woman is as intellectual as a man. A man is as intuitive as a woman. You chose your sexual focus for a reason. The reason has more to do with the flexibility of consciousness than you presently understand. It has to do with the real nature of aggression and passivity,¹ which you have allowed yourselves to forget … Birth is an aggressive experience. Passivity is based upon the joyful recognition of natural aggression. To be carried along, each of you must be very sure of yourself. To allow yourself what is now, in your terms, a luxury of passivity, you must have confidence in the nature of your own reality and strength. Otherwise passivity frightens you to the core.

In all religions, those that you did not officially adopt in your society, what you would think of as the female religions predominated. Those people did not progress in industrial terms because they were too well aware of their part in nature. They could not dissect it.

Your ideas of sexuality follow both your religions and your sciences, then, for you have created each. But you always know what you are doing, and there are cycles in the earth, and in your being and your soul. And so you are in the process of reuniting yourself, and discovering what the word “humanity” means. You are finding out the meaning of individuality, which is a far more important word than you realize, and when you understand that meaning, then your own individuality will express itself in its natural form. Regardless of what words are put upon your experience in terms of sexual roles, you will be a full human being. When the conscious and the unconscious minds are understood, you will have no more problems with sexuality.

Each of you must discover what sexuality is, in all of its aspects, and connect it with the nature of your consciousness and your being. The answers must come from within. You have before you now certain hints and signs. Use them. And all of you who look upon me as a sign of great logical thinking (humorously), and therefore male-oriented, in your terms, then listen:

[...] By their nature certain kinds of organization, behavior, and experimentation exclude other quite-as-valid but different approaches. The CU’s, in their freewheeling nature beneath all matter, are acquainted with all such organizations, so that some of the lessons learned by one species are indeed transferred to another.

[...] Probable man is emerging now, but also in relationship with his entire natural environment, in which cooperation is a main force. You are cooperating with nature whether or not you realize it, for you are a part of it.

[...] There is a great organization of consciousness involved on such occasions — sometimes creative cataclysms, in which, again from its own precognitive information, nature brings about those situations best suited to its needs. [...]

[...] When, in historic terms, the race was in the process of adopting a necessary artificial separation of itself from the rest of nature; when it needed to be assured of its abilities to do so; when it took upon itself the task of a particular kind of specialization and individual focus, it needed a religion that would assure it of its abilities.

(Seth began talking about the dilemma posed between the conventional theory of evolution and his ideas about the simultaneous nature of time and existence, soon after these sessions started late in 1963. [...]
