“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In certain terms (underlined), you are the recognized “result” of all of the decisions you have made up to this point in your life. That is the official⁹ you. You are in no way diminished because other quite-as-official selves are “offshoots” of your own experience, making the choices you did not make, and choosing, then, alternate versions of reality.

You follow the prime series of events that you recognize as your own, yet all of you are connected. (Long pause, eyes closed.) These are not just esoteric statements, but valid clues about the nature of your own behavior, meant to give you a sense of your own freedom, and to emphasize the importance of your choice.

You do this personally in your intimate lives to some degree also, as you view your earlier days. You blot out events that do not fit your present concept of yourself. They literally become nonexistent as far as you are concerned. In such fashion you block out aspects of your own reality — and consciously, at least, cut down on your choices.

You alter your experience in each instant, quite drastically. Each individual possesses far vaster opportunities for choice than are realized. You are denied tomorrow’s wisdom only because you believe time is a closed system.¹⁴ It is true that you are subject to birth and death, yet within that framework far greater dimensions of experience are possible than are usually experienced.
