“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He is afraid of going home because of current conditions — but that fear also prolongs current conditions. To some extent or another, you have both been afraid of making any plans at all concerning Ruburt’s return home, because they seem impractical at the present time. Both of you do indeed think in terms of impediments that do indeed seem all too real: the responsibility of maintaining good health, the financial question — and on Ruburt’s part, at least, the fear that he would not recover fully enough, but become ill again and require hospital attention once more.

(The session reinforced much of what I wrote in my notes before it was held — that fear rules, and whether by choice or not, has for many years. But then, ultimately it had to be chosen. I found myself thinking as the session progressed that what’s needed is not the allaying of any current fears about going home, but the more basic ones that are “responsible” for the whole situation to begin with. Then the current fears would melt away, I think. I even think that when Seth told Jane a few weeks ago that her broken right leg could straighten itself out, this generated more fears right there — that it couldn’t do so, and so forth. I also think that when an individual wants protection or shielding from the world badly enough, he or she will go to any length to get it.)

(Long pause.) I will try to clear up several important issues. Of course, on one level Ruburt wants to be home, and you want him home also. On another level, he is afraid of going home, thinking it almost impossible under current conditions. This applies to you also.

[...] The foliage is waving, and there is a current. The current is a strong and cold one, and becomes colder by the cove.

There are dangers connected with the last one mentioned, and treacherous currents near the chest. But ways of getting through them which involve two turns to the left, a going-along with the current, a right turn of 23 degrees. [...]

[...] There is a silt that covers much, but because of the currents in May, and sometimes in October, the silt—

In other words I am telling you that your present beliefs, in a manner of speaking, are like the directions given to the entire personality, simultaneously organizing and reorganizing past experience according to your current concepts of reality.

[...] To look backward for the source of current problems can lead you into the habit of seeking only negative episodes from your past, and prevent you from experiencing it as a source of pleasure, accomplishment, or success (very intently).

I have frequently said that beliefs cause reality, and that no symptom will simply fade away unless the “reason” is ascertained — but such reasons go far beneath your current ideas of cause and effect. [...]

Many proponents of reincarnation believe most firmly that an illness in one life most frequently has its roots in a past existence, and that reincarnational regression is therefore necessary to uncover the reasons for many current illnesses or dilemmas.

[...] The reasons for maladies are almost always present in current life experience (long pause) — and even though old events from childhood may have originally activated unhealthy behavior, it is present beliefs that allow old patterns of activity to operate.

The flow of thoughts during the day, the background current of thoughts, is highly connected to dream activity. Sometimes they spring to the surface of the mind, but often they are in the background, beneath the thoughts to which you are currently giving attention.

[...] The deeper currents of my subconscious mind are now in operation bringing the buyers and myself together in divine order. [...]

[...] At the same time you have an alternating current, also of high intensity energy, with this maturating tendency however. You have been slower in your projection attempts, yet you will do very well when these twin currents are in harmony. I am using the current idea simply to explain. I do not mean literally two currents.

While your present conscious beliefs dictate your current experience, and while your physical body wears its solidity only in present time to your senses, beneath this both the ever-changing elements of your body and your consciousness are relatively free in time. [...]

[...] You take it for granted as a rule that your current knowledge as a people rests upon scientific data, at least, that is unassailable. [...]

The world’s ideas, fantasies, or myths may seem far divorced from current experience — yet all that you know or experience has its origin in that creative dimension of existence that I am terming Framework 2. In a manner of speaking your factual world rises on a bed of fantasy, myth, and imagination, from which all of your detailed paraphernalia emerge. [...]

[...] It will not fit in with current theories, for the current theories by their nature must distort the truth they carry. [...]

[...] 2. Why does she have trouble typing manuscripts—as with Seven currently? [...]

Lesbianism and homosexuality, as they are currently experienced, also represent exaggerated versions of natural inclinations, even as your experienced version of heterosexuality is exaggerated.

Each moment is then like a mosaic, only in your current life history you follow only one color or pattern, and ignore the others. [...]

[...] He gives his past self his current knowledge. [...]

[...] Other life memories are carried along, so to speak, beneath those other pulses — never, in certain terms, coming to rest so that they can be examined, but forming, say, the undercurrents upon which the memories of your current life ride.

[...] Each moment is then like a mosaic, only in your current life history you follow but one color or pattern, and ignore the others. [...]

[...] Now Seth went into the more personal Part 2 of the session, explaining how in her own case Jane could give her past self in this life her current knowledge, so that through the resulting “psychological synthesis” she would be better equipped to handle certain challenges.

[...] There are an infinite number of such tributaries (probabilities), and through your beliefs you choose from these, adjusting their currents. [...] (See the 644th session in Chapter Eleven.)
