“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

6. Much of Seth’s material in this session (and in this paragraph), along with his obviously intense feelings about what he was saying, reminded me of a group of sessions he gave well over a decade ago on the three creative dilemmas of All That Is. In them he discussed at length the “agonized search” for expression of the powers of creativity and existence, and how the beginning of that search “may have represented the birth throes of All That Is as we know it.”

(All emphatically and joyously:) In your terms, the world is intensely different from one moment to another, with each smallest portion of consciousness choosing its reality from a field of infinite probabilities.³ Immense calculations, far beyond your conscious decisions as you think of them, are possible only because of the unutterable freedom that resides within minute worlds inside your skull — patterns of interrelationships, counterparts so cunningly woven that each is unique, freewheeling, and involved in an infinite cooperative venture so powerful that the atoms stay in certain forms, and the same stars shine in the sky.

In the light of such ideals, surely you seem wanting — yet your reality is one in which the greatest freedoms have been allowed. This means that you have given yourselves full range so that all probabilities could be explored, and none left out that were physically feasible.

1. Seth, way back in the 23rd session for February 5, 1964: “Nor do I know all the answers. It is, however, a fact that even man, in his blundering manner, will discover that he himself creates his own physical universe, and that the mechanisms of the physical body have more functions and varieties than he knows.”

[...] To some extent you realize that the world has physical contents, existing at one time yet varying in their characteristics. In those terms, the world is composed of its physical ingredients. That “package” is the only part of the picture that you see, however.

As I have certainly hinted, the body is a miraculous organism, and you have barely learned the most simple of its structures.¹ You do not understand the properties of soul or body, yet the body was given to you so that you could learn from it. [...] You create physical reality, yet without knowing how you do so, so that the wondrous structure of the earth itself is meant to lead you to question your own source. Nature as you understand it is meant to be your teacher. [...]

I dwell, in a way, in a realm that is more direct than yours. That is one image. [...] I speak with the wisdom, for example, that your cells would utter if they had speech.

That soul constantly creates the body, and each individual on the face of the earth at any given time places his or her trust in that reality. That feeling of certainty is the same that any plant knows. [...]

[...] The physical portions of earth are all related. [...] Yet as there is great variety to physical form, so counterparts follow a still more expansive inner freedom that finds an even greater diversity of characteristics.

[...] See Chapter 18 of Politics: “It’s the entire human element that is so perplexing, vast, humorous, and tragic all at once. [...]
