“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The rockbed reality is the one in which the perceiver is focused. From that standpoint all others would seem peripheral. Taking that for granted, however, any given reality system will be surrounded by its probability clusters. These can almost be thought of as satellites. Time and space need not be connected, however — that is, the attractions that exist between a reality and any given probability cluster may have nothing to do with time and space at all. The closest probability satellite to any given reality may, for example, be in an entirely different universe altogether. (Pause.) In that regard, you may find brethren more or less like yourselves outside of your own universe — as you think of it — rather than inside it. You imagine your universe as extending outward in space (and backwards in time). You think of it as an exteriorized manifestation, expanding perhaps, but in an exterior rather than an interior fashion.¹

In other terms, certain portions of your own reality have long since “vanished” in the unrecognized death that your own sense of continuity has so nicely straddled. Your personal cluster of probable realities surrounds you, again, on a cellular basis, and biologically your physical body steers its own line, finding its balance operating in a cluster of probabilities while maintaining the focus that is your own. You can even learn to tune in to the cellular comprehension. It will help you realize that your consciousness is not as limited as you suppose. All realities emerge from the psyche, and from the CU’s (the units of consciousness) that compose it.

(After supper this evening Jane received from Seth [without subjectively hearing his voice] information that the session would contain material about “probability clusters.” We liked the term. But not until Seth began discussing the subject did I realize that Jane had tuned in to it herself following last Wednesday night’s session. It appears at the end of that [711th] session as item No. 2 on the list of topics she came up with during the sleep state.

(On Friday, July 18, Bill Gallagher tells us he had a cluster of fairly close near-accident situations since Monday—one involving two boys on bicycles—he stopped about 20 yards from them—but he was going 55 at the foot of Mount Zoar Hill on Holden Road.

[...] Now I have been speaking of earthly developments, realities therefore clustered about earthly aspects as you know them.

[...] Some will be clustered in certain areas, for example, like low-pressure systems. [...]

One (name) has to do with a cluster of things, and a group or a group like a nest for example.

[...] Jane said she seemed to use the alpha state as the base for a projection into the past and into this tree: she found herself, briefly, amid a cluster of its leaves, peering out….

[...] Yet when scientists examine our universe of galaxies and clusters of galaxies, they see space as essentially flat, instead of curving in upon itself as it should over those enormous distances. [...]

One has to do with a cluster of things, and a group or a group like a nest, for example. [...]

[...] They came in clusters, dealing with certain particular questions and subject matter. [...]

[...] A cluster of events he considers too many. [...]

[...] You see the beliefs, the motivations, the feelings, of those whose beliefs are carried to extremes, so that you can follow them as if they were psychological clusters or cultures—isolated, so to speak. [...]

[...] A cluster of shapes, rounded. [...]

[...] Transferences of personal problems are all involved here, and clusters of beliefs.

3. Following Seth’s material in these paragraphs, then, there are of course a number of other Janes and Robs busily living out their lives in a cluster of associated probable realities — and all of those Janes and Robs are just as real to Seth as we are. [...]

(“I’m beginning to get a cluster of images. [...]

[...] We had clustered around the coffee table for perhaps five or six minutes when Seth came through. [...]

[...] Around it are clustered groups of men every day, going over the current job on the press. [...]

[...] Usually the flashing pictures would emphasize one small portion before my eyes—that is, a tree branch with a cluster of leaves for instance, each of which I would glimpse in sharp and colorful detail. [...]
