“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I wanted to make this point, since matter is created by the subconscious, and since it exists simultaneously and instantaneously, and since its creation or arrival, and its departure or replacement, are instantaneous. Once this is understood it becomes at least theoretically possible to re-create the material of the past, in so far as the patterns for the material have been retained.

A few things should be clear by now. There is an interaction that I have yet to explain to you, between time as you know it, and material. Basically material is spontaneous and instantaneous, as I told you. The change in it that you seem to perceive is illusion.

We will take a good amount of time to cover this and allied subjects, as we must also deal with the pattern and its source. Since matter is constantly re-created, and instantaneous, many of your ideas of time are of course distorted, since you have taken it for granted that matter changes with, or in, time. You have judged a time interval by the seeming changes in a given material object.

[...] On the other hand the recovery is assured, and will occur far quicker than you imagine when you are not thinking of an instantaneous, complete recovery between one moment and the next.

[...] I want you to understand that Ruburt’s recovery is following its own order, yet also to reassure you that that recovery is assured, and will not take much time, as long as you do not expect it to be instantaneous.

[...] It involves direct instantaneous cognition of the essence of living ‘tissue.’ I use the word ‘tissue’ with caution and ask you not to think of it necessarily in terms of flesh.

The matter is spontaneously and instantaneously created. [...]

[...] It is spontaneous and instantaneous.

[...] It exists and disappears, and is instantaneously replaced by another. [...]

[...] Energy is active, positive, propelled by what can almost be called an instantaneous pleasure with itself and its characteristics.

[...] Death was instantaneous. [...]

[...] Death was instantaneous. [...]

If you will remember what I have said about the way in which the universe expands, that has nothing to do with space, then you may perhaps perceive, though dimly, the existence of a psychic pyramid of interrelated, everexpanding consciousness that creates simultaneously and instantaneously universes and individuals that are given, through the gifts of personal perspectives, duration, intelligence, psychic comprehension, and eternal validity.

[...] This absolute, ever-expanding, instantaneous psychic gestalt, which you may call God, if you prefer, is so secure in its existence now that it can constantly break itself down and rebuild itself.

[...] As an idea expands, changing a world but taking up no space, and unperceived by your scientific instruments, so does the ultimate and instantaneous absolute gestalt, which you may if you prefer call God, exist and expand.

Concerning Joseph’s point about sound; sound alone, entering the body, instantaneously changes it.

Any action, any reality, irregardless, constantly and instantaneously changes. [...]

[...] Imagine then action or energy which is conscious, exploding into bloom like some gigantic cosmic flower, spontaneously, instantaneously, and intuitively.

[...] The most minute blossom within it would experience only an almost instantaneous change of form, and all of this would transpire in the breath of an instant. [...]

“If you remember what I said about the way in which the universe expands, that it has nothing to do with space, then you may perhaps dimly perceive the existence of a psychic pyramid of interrelated, ever-expanding consciousness that creates, simultaneously and instantaneously, universes and individuals that are given—through the gifts of personal perspective—duration, psychic comprehension, intelligence, and eternal validity.

“This absolute, ever-expanding, instantaneous psychic gestalt, which you may call God if you prefer, is so secure in its existence that it can constantly break itself down and rebuild itself.

[...] Reactions are also nearly instantaneous in your terms. [...]

In one way or another each segment of consciousness is aware of each other segment, through an instantaneous communication that exists on many levels. [...]

The atoms and molecules, energy in matter, appear and disappear instantaneously. [...]

The chair is being fully constructed simultaneously and instantaneously. [...]

[...] Its operation is due to an almost instantaneous kind of consciousness, in which what is known is known, with no distance between, say, the knower and the known.

(3:52.) In terms of “starting over” at such a point, the main thing to remember is not to expect too much too fast, while recognizing that instantaneous cures are indeed probabilities.

These creatures do indeed remember, but their remembering operates extremely rapidly — a kind of almost instantaneous deduction that comes as sense data is interpreted. [...]

All of these forms, however, are you understand spontaneous and instantaneous. [...]

[...] Messages do not leap instantaneously through the nervous system. [...]

[...] You can travel instantaneously in many projections. [...]

The first “object” was an almost unendurable mass, though it had no weight, and it exploded, instantaneously beginning processes that formed the universe—but no time was involved. [...]

[...] [Here we go again, I speculated, back to struggling with that contradictory notion of “simultaneous time.”] How does Seth’s instantaneous “beginning processes that formed the universe”—with no time involved—square with fossils in the earth? [...]
