[...] Earlier this evening I spoke of association as often operating outside of time sequences. [...]

[...] Using memory, you follow but one recognized sequence of remembered events backward. [...]

[...] The future incident may then occur in its time sequence, and you recognize it through memory, in which case your reactions in that future present will be altered because of the seemingly past memory.

[...] They are used to experiencing events not in any time sequence. [...]

Therefore you are hampered in your attempt to understand personalities who do not exist within your system, for identity is not therefore structured in any kind of a time sequence, and what you call memory flies out the window.

[...] Seth has discussed this dream in considerable detail, without saying much about the opening sequence of the dream. In this opening sequence, Jane, Bill, the members of the Potter family, and myself, were gathered in a living room. [...] It then struck me this evening that the discussion between Jane, Bill and I, over Jane’s new work, bore some rather remarkable parallels to that opening dream sequence, and I wondered whether that portion of the dream could have been clairvoyant. [...]

(Now from 4:21 to 4:30 Jane went through several more sequences of exercising with her head and shoulders, side to side, accompanied by grunts and groans, and with her left foot moving in a rather gentle rhythm also. [...]

[...] Because you think in terms of consecutive time, it seems that there must have been a first egg, or seed.¹ The blueprints for reality exist, however, in dimensions without such a time sequence.

[...] There is, therefore, a quite valid, vital, real and vastly creative inner reality, and an inward sequence of events from which your present universe and life emerges. [...]

New paragraph: Even in your private lives, however, there are clues as to other kinds of sequences in which events can occur — and do. [...] They pass beneath your notice simply because they do not fit the ordered sequence with which you are familiar. [...]

Your cellular structure is innately able to follow such sequences. [...]

(4:31.) The analogy of the many speeds of consciousness actually fits in well with the actual neurological sequences upon which consciousness plays. [...]

For one thing the self is usually thought of in terms of existence only within one particular time sequence pattern. [...]

Because you are obsessed with the idea of time as past, present and future, you are forced to think of reincarnations as strung out one before the other, and indeed we speak of past lives simply because you are used to the time sequence concept. [...]

[...] Events appear to you however in sequence, therefore it is difficult to explain many matters to you, because they must be given in bits and pieces.

[...] I recognize your problems—but that sequence alone, done properly, would require sessions.
