“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“I can sense the information outside of me, say, but I can’t get it in my regular state of consciousness. When Seth comes through he’s at the same level the material’s at, and he — or I — can then pull it in … It’s as though there’s a store of information there, but I have to go through a door of consciousness to reach it.”

Scientifically, with all of your instruments, you are thus far able to perceive the atom’s presence only in the field of your own system of probability. Since you perceive physically through the body, which is atomically structured, then of course your sense perceptions lead you to block out recognition of other probable stimuli or reactions. In his book Adventures in Consciousness, Ruburt mentions what he calls “prejudiced perception.’’¹ It is an excellent term in this regard.

When she sensed any strong feelings that Joseph also wanted such a home, then — in your terms now — she began, from her different framework after death, to bring that opportunity into his experience. This is not manipulation. It does show, however, that one portion of Joseph’s mother, the portion connected to her son, still relates to him in a certain fashion. It also shows that his desires for a house in Sayre (deeper and stronger) helped bring about certain events: He could have such a house if he wanted one.

1. In the Glossary for Adventures, Jane defines prejudiced perception as “The propensity for organizing undifferentiated data into specific differentiated sense terms.” Also see Chapter 14 in Adventures.
