[...] Such affairs are only the shadows of probabilities—that is, experienced merely as shadows, and not fleshed out, because of your own better attitudes and knowledge. [...]
(“I figure on calling Pete tomorrow morning and telling him about today’s events, but I don’t want to change probabilities by dwelling upon them. [...]
[...] We have spoken of probable man, hinted at probable civilizations, and mentioned alternate systems of actuality.2 Yet these do not exist completely apart from the world that you know, or entirely cut off from the psyche. [...]
2. Seth discussed probable man and probable civilizations, and mentioned alternate systems of actuality, in various portions of Volume 1. See the 687th session (which bridges sections 1 and 2), for instance, and Appendix 6 for that session.
[...] She said she felt that in this section Seth would have a series of exercises related to the one he’d just given, these would help people glimpse at least some of the alternate or probable realities discussed in Section 4.
He himself changed the probabilities purposely, and his father realized this. But the probabilities thus changed, the two other brothers of which we have spoken this evening came into different positions of action.
Ruburt’s earlier thought was correct, granting probabilities at this time.
[...] (Long pause.) Future probabilities are worked out there also so that individually and en masse the species decides upon its probable future. [...]
[...] If [our scientist’s] attitude had been critical, I probably wouldn’t have done as well, though.”
[...] Seth: “Ruburt’s science kit is something picked up, in your terms, from another probability — in which he learned all there is to know about science as you know it. [...]
(And separately: Over the weekend Jane remarked more than once that “Unknown” Reality might prove to be so long that it could go into two volumes — a probable development I hardly took seriously. [...]
[...] I have used the word multidimensional often, and you see I mean it quite literally, for your reality exists not only in terms of reincarnational existences but also in the probable realities mentioned earlier.
(9:26.) The entity might well be exploring several probable systems too, and these personalities would also have to be reached and contacted. [...]
Such a work would be perceived in your system as one thing, for example, but would also be perceived in probable realities, though perhaps in an entirely different way — a multidimensional art, you see, so free and elemental that it would appear simultaneously in many realities.
3. Seth discussed his “blueprints for reality” a number of times in Volume 1 of “Unknown” Reality. See the 696th session, for instance: “Each probability system has its own set of ‘blueprints,’ clearly defining its freedoms and boundaries … These are not ‘inner images of perfection,’ and to some extent the blueprints themselves change … As an individual you carry within you such a blueprint, then; it contains all the information you require to bring about the most favorable version of yourself in the probable system you know … In the same fashion the species en masse holds within its vast inner mind such working plans or blueprints.”
[...] Yet true infinity reaches far beyond past or future, and into all probabilities — not simply straightforward into time, or backward.
5. In the 685th session for Volume 1, Seth stated that the consciousnesses of our cells are eternal, and that biologically we’re equipped to explore many more probable realities than we know. [...]
[...] For Chapter 19 of Politics (which is to be published in 1976) Jane transcribed from her library, in part: “If you imagine the official numbers 1 to 10 in a row, then there would be an infinite number of unofficial 1’s hidden in the 1 you saw, and an infinite number of spaces between the official 1 and 2. The position of the 1 on the paper would represent our sense-data world, while the invisible 1’s behind the official 1 would represent the official 1’s hidden values and infinite probabilities.”
[...] In its own way, cellular comprehension includes a vast recognition of probabilities in your terms, and works with flashing manipulations in which these probabilities are contended with and responded to — and therefore altered.
(10:42.) The physically attuned conscious mind in your now cannot handle those staggering probabilities while maintaining a sense of identity, yet there are conscious traces within your daily thoughts that are the psychological representations of such knowledge.
In itself, such an exercise creatively alters probabilities, for you no longer live with the problem as an unchanging concrete reality. [...]
Your dream showed you the opening of another probability that has emerged as a result of your joint efforts. The dream took place at 458 because it is an offshoot of an unrealized probability that opened there on two occasions (in 1973 at our apartment at 458 West Water Street, Elmira, New York).
[...] But those probabilities did not materialize.
Your dream shows that Ruburt’s determination—with your own determined involvement—have strongly attracted you to that probability again—and this time in the dream you saw it actualized. [...]
[...] The other, to you probable, lines of consciousness can now come into play.
[...] The cells of the plant are kept in contact with the environment through the leaves’ experiences, and future probabilities are always taken into consideration. [...]
“As you have probably supposed by now, there is consciousness in everything. [...]
9. When Seth mentions reincarnation now, I usually think of a certain delivery of his in Volume 1. After 10:45 in the 683rd session, see the paragraph of material beginning with this phrase: “Reincarnation simply represents probabilities in a time context….” [...]
[...] Remember some of the main points I gave you on probabilities. You see, in some dimension Napoleon conquered Europe completely, and the actions resulting from that probability continue in that dimension.
[...] It goes without saying that the inhabitants of these other probable systems are every much as real as the inhabitants of your own system.
They would consider your own system as a probable universe. [...]
—in all probabilities, in all possible directions.
His probable brain can only translate so much of this (tonight’s session) at one time.
The probabilities unchosen may in fact be changed completely, or altered considerably, and even used as springboards, or starting-off points, for more favorable events. [...]
