“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In such a way the cells retain their memory, though you do not perceive it, and the body is aware of so-called future occurrences, though as a rule you do not consciously sense this. (Suddenly very intense and fast:) At other levels of psychic activity however such knowledge is also available to you, but only when you disconnect your experience from the time-activated neuronal structure — and this you can do through various alterations of consciousness, often quite spontaneously adopted.

(11:20. Jane said that while in trance she hadn’t been aware that her delivery had been slow at times — yet she seemed to recall these fluctuations when I asked her about them. She thought Seth was “trying to couch the stuff in terms that would make sense to someone who didn’t know much about such things, while keeping it of interest to a physicist, say — which wasn’t easy to do. There was a lot more about synapses and neurons, and things like that, that he didn’t put in….”

(The junction between two nerve cells, or neurons, is called the synapse. [See the 637th session in Chapter Nine.] Jane is receiving more letters from scientists these days, many of whom ask intriguing questions about the type of material covered in this session.

A new belief in the present, however, can cause changes in the past on a neuronal level. [...] In some cases of healing, in the spontaneous disappearance of cancer, for instance, or of any other disease, certain alterations are made that affect cellular memory, genetic codes, or neuronal patterns in the past.

[...] If, in the present, one past event can be altered within your neuronal structure, however, then basically no event is safe from such change.

Dictation: Your neuronal activity structures your conscious experience, then. [...]

[...] So the entity in its own way possesses what you can think of as future neuronal structures. [...]

3. Here Seth refers to the way the nervous impulse passes from one neuron, or nerve cell, to the next as it traverses the body’s nervous system. The junction between two neurons is called the synapse.

[...] Your neuronal structure necessitates a certain focus so that other experiences counter to your conscious assumptions remain probable or latent. [...]

[...] The quickening sensations Ruburt has felt have to do with the quicker passage of neuronal messages as the nerves are stimulated. [...]

6. Session 654, in Chapter 14 of Personal Reality, contains information on the changing cellular memory, genetic codes, and neuronal patterns. [...]

[...] The structure within the neurons is no longer a dead thing but the structure is a reality that speaks; and the reality speaks quite loudly in terms of heritage, of experiences encountered long before your physical form knew itself. [...]

In that framework, even the emotions of love and exaltation are seen as no more than the erratic activity of neurons firing (pause), or of chemicals reacting to chemicals. [...]

[...] I wish I could put this into words; but you’ve got to realize that events outside the body are the same events as those inside the body — the behavior of its neurons and all of its chemical activities … and because inside and outside are so beautifully synchronized, everything will always agree.

It is this ability which is ever a strong force on your plane, having to do with the building up of particular elements, atoms, neurons and so forth, into camouflage patterns. [...]

[...] Think of — my dear friend — the tiny weblike positions of the neurons within your skull. [...]

[...] He was beginning to recognize another synapse [neuronal] pattern not “native”; he was familiarizing himself with perceptions at a different set of coordinate points. [...]

13. By “nerve ends” Seth means the synapses, which are the minute sites where neurons, or nerve cells, contact each other.
