“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“As I sat here before the session,” Sue wrote, “I got an impression of Seth that I’d never had before. It was as though Jane, Rob, and I were traveling at a certain familiar speed while we were talking, although this has nothing to do with motion. When Seth came ‘around’ just before the session, it seemed that something within Jane began to crank up, to whirl or accelerate faster and faster until a certain incredibly other speed was reached — a part of Jane’s consciousness that is called Seth.

(“At that point the speed was right and things ‘clicked’ somehow. Jane took off her glasses, as she always does. I could almost hear this action; then the Seth personality began to communicate. The Seth Two experience would be an even greater acceleration of this speed, reached at the point of the pyramid effect Jane describes.

(“I don’t mean to say by this that I think Seth and Jane are the same personality; rather, my feeling is that this acceleration connects portions of the same consciousness that are normally so diverse as to be two separate personalities for all practical purposes. I can recognize the same feeling of acceleration when I’m writing well myself, or even talking enthusiastically; but the feeling of vast, incomprehensible speed behind Seth’s eyes goes way beyond that. I could sense the notion of speeds very clearly, both in Jane and Seth, and I felt partly carried along by them.

(According to the theory of relativity, no particle can be accelerated to the speed of light because its mass would become infinitely large as it approached light’s velocity; but this barrier is bypassed by stating that the particles in question have an imaginary proper mass — not rest mass — that is never less than the speed of light. [...]

(By M.H. Her query was based on a theory that, as it happened, I’d heard of also: A group of scientists has postulated the existence of a class of subatomic particles called “tachyons,” or “meta-particles,” that always travel faster than the speed of light.

[...] In your terms many of these particles making up such constructions do move faster than the speed of your light.

In Ruburt’s recent experience, he found himself inside the chassis of a recording device — signifying that instead of playing a cassette at several different speeds, he was instead, so to speak, playing his own consciousness at different speeds.

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

[...] And her speed of dictation is evidently limited only by the speed at which I can write.

[...] At times my onehanded approach slowed up the pointer’s transmission, but if I touched my right hand to it, it picked up speed. [...]

[...] Bill is afraid to drive too fast—as road is full of curves, so Kendall’s car speeds out of sight. [...] Bill said that he probably would have been involved if he continued speeding after Kendall’s car to catch him. [...]

You might say that the varying portions of your own consciousness operate at several different speeds. Translations between one portion of consciousness and another goes on constantly, so that information is translated from one “speed” to another. [...]

[...] Messages, therefore, perceptions, “came through” at one speed, so to speak, and he managed to receive them while translating them into a more comfortable, neurologically familiar speed.

[...] That particular type of consciousness operates “at different speeds” than your own. Biologically, your own physical structures are quite able to operate at those same speeds, though as a species you have disciplined yourselves to a different kind of neurological reaction. [...]

As the evening passed Jane told class that she’d keep Seth’s “true reality rhythm-speed” to her left and, she hoped, would speak an understandable translation of it, speeded up for our cognition, to her right. [...]

This self can give directions to both the ego and the subconscious and can instruct the subconscious to speed up healing processes. [...]

One or two excellent self-hypnosis sessions a week will speed up complete release of symptoms. [...]

[...] Ruburt should specifically request dreams in which he is running, with speed and flexibility, dreams in which he dances well, and dreams in which he experiences a magnificent sense of vitality and physical exuberance.

[...] We just recognize one speed. Other messages leap too fast or too slow for us to focus upon them. [...]

[...] I’d say that her own awareness of multiple channels has grown out of her initial sensing of the channels available from Seth, as described in the 616th session in Chapter 2 of Personal Reality; and that her material on neurological speeds is related to the observations of Jane that were noted by Sue Watkins in Seth Speaks; see the 594th session in the Appendix of that book. [...]

[...] They cannot be certain of its position and its speed at the same time, and to some extent the same applies to your consciousness. The speed of your own thoughts takes those thoughts away from you even as you think them—and you can never really examine a thought, but only the thought of a thought (with quiet amusement).

[...] The invisible particles are the framework upon which your body is formed, for example—they (underlined) move faster than the speed of light, yet you are not dizzy. [...]

[...] She did very well without the lower teeth, and picked up speed as she went along. [...]

[...] Her breathing speeded up a little also. [...]

[...] Her speed of dictation was slow, with pauses, in the beginning, but by first break had attained its usual rather fast pace.)

[...] Her eyes had remained closed and her delivery had speeded up considerably. [...]

[...] Albert Einstein, in his special theory of relativity, demonstrated that nothing else in the universe can quite reach — let alone surpass — the speed of light. [...] There have also been recent astronomical observations of several far-distant objects that appear to be “superluminous,” or traveling considerably faster than the speed of light. [...]

(“No,” I said, although Seth-Jane’s pace was pretty good as far as my writing speed was concerned.)

[...] Intuitions deal with immediate experience of the most intimate nature, with subjective motions and activities that in your terms move far quicker than the speed of light, and with simultaneous events that your cause-and-effect level is far too slow to perceive.²

[...] Natural motion and near-normal speed is returning to certain muscles and ligaments in the arm—the right one particularly. [...]

speeds a sweet swift message

[...] Her delivery in the beginning was rather slow and interspersed with pauses, but after a page or so it began to pick up speed, until she had me writing at a pretty good rate. At the same time Jane’s pacing also picked up speed.)

[...] Her pace had speeded up and my writing hand was feeling it. [...]

Effects which appear within your system, discernible by your instruments but without form in some, indeed many cases, represent speeds and velocities of activities or acts that actually have their origin from without your system; but because of their different speed and velocity they can travel through your system, and of course making their impression upon it.

[...] She began on time, again without her glasses, and at a normal speed with some pauses. [...]

[...] We move through systems such as yours faster than the speed of light, and so what I am saying is already a translation and, in your terms, a message left in the past of your time. Your own consciousness also travels faster than the speed of light, and big portions of you does understand, to some degree, the nature of our reality. [...]

[...] For if time speeds ahead, my dear friends, or if you say that times speed ahead, which is an entirely different thing, then you must say also that it speeds backwards. [...]

[...] I said I thought that maybe her impatience was meant to serve as an impetus to her healing speed. [...]
