“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Had I materialized my creature from outer space—I believe that is a current term, scoffed at and ridiculed—however, if I had materialized this image you would have really opened your eyes. [...] Even the shape of the features, never clearly glimpsed, were space distortions necessary to come through on this plane at all. [...]

As far as fifth dimension is concerned, I have said it is space. [...]

[...] Yet not only are we on different sides of the same wires, but we are at the same time either above or below, according to your viewpoint, and if you consider the wires as forming cubes—this is for you, Joseph, with your love of images—then the cubes could also fit one within the other without disturbing the inhabitants of either cube one iota; and these cubes are also within cubes, which are themselves within cubes, and I am speaking now of only the small particle of space taken up by your plane and mine.

Your idea of space is then highly distorted, since space to you is simply where nothing is perceived. [...]

Your space is therefore filled with incipient forms, quite vivid, but beneath the regular structure of matter that you perceive.

[...] These exist not only psychologically or psychically, but as blank areas in terms of space. The spaces may be filled finally with new symbols. [...]

[...] These gaps are recognized by others, therefore, and viewed as dark spaces. [...]

2. I see correlations between the “flat view of reality” given to us by our physical senses, as Seth maintains, and the “flat” view of the universe that cosmologists perceive when they look way out into space. In his general theory of relativity, Einstein postulated that space can curve, and this has been shown to happen near our sun. Yet when scientists examine our universe of galaxies and clusters of galaxies, they see space as essentially flat, instead of curving in upon itself as it should over those enormous distances. [...]

The stuff, the space outside of your body, is composed of the same elements, but in different proportions. There is a constant physical interchange between the structure you call your body and the space outside it; chemical interactions, basic exchanges without which life as you know it would be impossible.

(11:14.) I told you that the self was not limited, yet surely you think that your self stops where your skin meets space, that you are inside your skin. [...]

[...] Since your thoughts, emotions and beliefs move through space and time, you therefore affect physical conditions separate from you.

[...] Birth and death contain between them the earthly experience that you perceive as happening within a given period of time, through various seasons, and involving unique perceptions within areas of space — encountered with other human beings, all to one extent or another sharing with you events caused by the intersection of the self and time and space.

It develops, again, as you know, Joseph and Ruburt, it expands as an idea expands, taking up no space. The self may project itself into the dimensions of space and time, but the projection is a small part of its actuality. [...]

A psychological experience may take up no space as a rock takes up space, but when a psychological experience happens it may fill you up. [...]

[...] It expands and develops in terms of value fulfillment, in a way that has nothing to do with space and time.

(Seth, it seemed, occupied a space about five feet high—a “blob” of space into which I could step, just at the limit of Jane’s reach, without disturbing him or without Jane sensing me as a separate entity within Seth’s province. [...]

[...] I come to you from a long way and yet the distance is not in terms of space. I am separated from you in a way that has nothing to do with space. [...]

I will not say outside of it since in many instances, if you speak in terms of space as you know it, then in space many perspectives occur together. It is not space that separates, it is the focus and the form of energy.

(Slowly:) Only because these units have their source outside of space and time is the present corporal reality a triumph of probabilities. [...]

Yet the units of consciousness, being independent of space and time, form your cellular structure, and that structure deals in a most basic manner with the nature of probabilities. [...]

If you understood to begin with that you are a spirit, and therefore free of space and time yourself, then you could at least consider the possibility that some such messages were coming to you from other portions of your own reality. [...]

At the levels with which we are concerned, the body must primarily react to present, immediate, primary existence in space and time. [...] But the body depends on the conscious mind to give it a clear assessment of precise conditions of the space and time it occupies. [...]

Now: Physically your body has a stance in space and time. [...]

The natural creature-validity of your senses must remain clear, and only then can you take full advantage of those intuitions and visions that must come through your own private intersection with space and time.

[...] I have told you that the universe expands in a way that has nothing to do with space. But when you try to relate this idea to the universe as you know it, you find yourself up against a brick wall, for what you seem to see out in the universe is indeed space.

[...] Now, energy within any atom expands, but within a space so small that it is almost inconceivable to you. The atom you see does not then grow larger in mass, or expand outward in space, and neither does your universe.

They still exist within the same space, using your terms, that they did earlier in your time. [...]

[...] The form is etched in space and time, and yet the pattern itself exists outside of that framework also — the body is a projection, therefore, into the three-dimensional field.

[...] The projection in time and space may disappear, in your terms, wither and die. [...]

(9:40.) When you simply want to reach a destination in space, there are maps to explain the nature of the land and waterways. [...]

[...] When you want to find a mate you take it for granted that a potential mate exists, though where in space and time you do not know. [...]

[...] It is important here also to realize that while the personality is always in motion, the motion involved here is not one of mobility in space as you know it. [...]

[...] For here we see many of action’s characteristics: the mobility that does not necessarily involve space, the thrusts outward, and the corresponding thrusts inward. [...]

The ego fears death, yet in the space of your own physical lifetime portions of the self have undergone like transformations endless times, of which the ego is unaware.

[...] There are periods of quietude, flux and change then, in each individual’s life, that are to some extent connected with the point of emergence into space and time. They are simply various kinds of patterned behavior, swirls of interactions as the soul meets space and time. [...]

[...] The two of you jointly also did agree, despite your own feelings in space and time, and I understand them; I know that the method will be left behind. [...]

Therefore, given the five people, there are five different perspectives and space continuums in which a glass exists. Each of the five people is aware of only one space continuum, his own, in which his physical construction exists. [...]

If ten people seemingly observe this glass, you have ten personal perspectives that actually exist, ten space continuums, and ten actual glasses. [...] The space continuums are created by each individual, in which he forms his own physical constructions.

There is, then, truly no beginning or end, because we are speaking in terms of an expansion that has nothing to do with space or time, an evolution in dimensions of which you and your kind have not yet even dreamed. 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.

[...] For another thing, this is a space age for you. [...]

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.

[...] Those disturbances are the result of a slowing down of prior effects of faster-than-light activity, and represent the emergence into your space-time system of energy that can then be effectively used and formed into the cellular pattern.

[...] At such times consciousness simply puts itself in a different relationship with time and space. [...]

[...] The relationship of the individual to time and space has altered. [...]

[...] Any event of any kind that does not directly, immaculately intersect with your space-time continuum, does not happen, in your terms, but falls away. [...]
