(End at 11:40 p.m. When Jane woke up the next morning, this passage of Seth’s from last night’s session was on her mind: “A group of selves forms a soul.” [...]

[...] It has many good things in it, but we’re disturbed when we come to passages in which the author describes “life” as opposed to “nonlife”, or in which he postulates an ultimate chaos — the running-down of our universe into a final random distribution of matter — as inevitable. [...]

[...] Even then, however, associations deal with the passage of time, and basically significances do not. [...]

[...] After forms were fully physical, however, all species operated as sleepwalkers for many centuries, though on the scale that existed then the passage of time was not considered in the same fashion. [...]

[...] In any case, we obviously didn’t delete the passage.

1.) I want you to each reread the passages on the point of power in Personal Reality, and to apply it—that truth—to Ruburt’s physical condition. [...]

[...] Actually, I was quite concerned with the quick passage of time, and the pressure to prepare manuscripts for publication. [...]

(The above passage refers to tests Jane uses on herself. [...]

[...] A case in point in the above delivery would be the passage where Seth states: “Now Ruburt helped me, though consciously he was not aware of this, because of the peculiar circumstances.” [...]
