“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] She looks surprised at our costumes, but I see a paper and pen on the kitchen counter and write a brief explanation. [...]

[...] I am somewhat unsure of this, and will have to wait for Seth’s explanation. [...]

[...] Since, however, he has noticed that occasionally, without touching a drop of wine during a given session, he nevertheless feels as if he had been indulging, so I would like to make a brief explanation.

I can see from your discussions that some short explanations are in order. [...]

[...] On some points we did not see or get explanations.

[...] Luckily, in the next, 481st session on May 12, 1969, Seth began an explanation. [...]

[...] He could meet any criticisms with suitable explanations, since any audience was not about to question the poet’s psychological validity. [...]

[...] Seth’s attitude toward cause and effect will become clear enough in his later explanations of the true nature of “time,” but when Rob first asked the question, Seth answered:

“It would be the simplest explanation, and I’d be a lot less bewildered if I could think that was it,” Mark said. [...]

Yet even in our [Jane’s] childhood years I yearned to free us from such doctrines, to search for alternate explanations, to go where no man or woman had gone before, and to venture outside the boundaries of all official beliefs.

While all of this is of practical interest, Rob and I are even more intrigued by Seth’s explanation of dream reality. [...]

[...]

[...] (See Session 721 in Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.) However, neither of us have had such an outright encounter with a future self—that we know of. I’d say that under hypnosis the urge to fantasize the future lives must be a tempting one; but what’s the explanation for achieving little more than a formless future state while “under,” no matter how hard one tries?

Old honored explanations suddenly appear withered. [...]

[...] On the other hand the effort to communicate explanations does involve a very real endeavor on my part. [...]
