“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(First I thought of Seth’s assertion in the 92nd session for September 28, 1964, that “trees have their dreams”; [in Volume 1, see the quotations in Note 1 for Session 698]. Then I remembered that he’d come through with extensive material on tree consciousness in a much earlier session. With Jane’s help the next day I found that information in the 18th session, which had been held on January 22, 1964. Most of that session is unpublished, although someday we’d like to print it in full. It contains many intriguing ideas — as, for example: “A tree knows a human being also … [yet it] does not even build up an image of a man, which is why this is so difficult to explain … And the same tree will recognize the same man who passes it by each day.”

7. All in Volume 1: Seth refers to some varieties of ancient man in Session 689 (also see Note 4), and in Session 691 after 10:30. Then see Appendix 6 for Jane’s material on parallel man, alternate man, and probable man.

I am speaking in your historical terms because before the historical system that you recognize, man had indeed experimented with these other directions, and with some success. This does not mean that man in the present has fallen from some higher spiritual achievement to his current state.

[...] Man has not driven himself down a blind alley, in other words. [...]

[...] Let us look at some of those other directions that are native to man’s consciousness, still waiting to be used effectively.
