“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] The car stands for my travels through the psyche, and the family represented conventional America and its everyday beliefs, which I rejected. [...]

Many birds in their fantastic migrations demonstrate an amazing optimism, traveling thousands of miles to distant shores, almost literally flying by faith, as it were, ignoring all dangers, unbeseiged by doubts. [...]

(9:56.) In a manner of speaking, you travel back and forth each night through atmospheres and entry points of which you are not aware. In your sleep you do indeed travel, again, those vast distances between birth and death. [...]

[...] I do not travel physically in a UFO (with amusement), and yet my mental or psychic journeys must occur in a medium of some kind. [...]

[...] I got up to look out the living room window, to try my mental experience of traveling across the Walnut St. bridge again, to “feel” myself doing it as before.

[...] In your limited space travel you take for granted the fact that different conditions will be met from those encountered upon your planet.

When information “falls” into your conscious mind from those vaster areas, then it also is changed as it travels through various levels of psychological atmosphere, until it finally lands or explodes in a series of images or thoughts. [...]

[...] They are transformed, therefore, as they travel through your own psychological atmosphere. [...]

Two friends continued to travel and paint, however, and visited you occasionally, and you envied them to some degree. [...]

“Without shortcuts or even average progression, any such Self A would travel Thread A along the narrow line toward infinity. [...] Only by meeting one of these other selves can he become aware of the nature of this strange structure through which he is traveling.

“There is, however, a self, who has already traveled these routes, of whom the other selves are but part. [...] As this self grows in value fulfillment, he can become aware of these travelers on other threads, who would seem to him to be future selves.

[...] The single line [representing physical experience] is merely the surface thread along which you seem to travel. [...]

[...] In it Seth compared our idea of space travel to traveling from the basement of a building to the top floor; and for a building he used as an example the ancient Tower of Babel.)

Your idea of space travel is indeed as ridiculous as trying to build a huge, tall structure many stories high, and considering this building as a space vehicle. [...] For another, traveling from the basement up to some sixtieth story hardly would bring you any closer in any real manner to the stars.

Through Ruburt’s subconscious I picked up the old legend of the Tower of Babel, and yet this is precisely what you are attempting now in space travel. [...]

In the past some (Ilda) have been great courtesans, and even though they were not able to travel physically, they were at the heart of communication — that is, a part of court life, or involved with diplomats who did travel.

[...] They are travelers, carrying with them the ideas of one country to another, mixing cultures, religions, attitudes, political structures. [...]

Now you can often find them in the departments of government, in those areas where travel is involved, or in finance. [...]

[...] The river was as real as any that you know, as treacherous to a traveler alone without proper knowledge. Guides were always at the river to help such travelers across.

[...] Presumably, such a traveler could have reached Constantinople [now Istanbul], by an overland journey across Turkey, which lay north of the Arab lands, or by sailing the eastern Mediterranean around Turkey, through the Dardanelles and so into the city. [...]

[...] You may or may not have the sensation of traveling through doors or windows. [...] The molecular structure of the traveling self changes.

[...] I do not want either of you traveling about unless you know what you are doing. [...]

I have told you that the form in which you are traveling can be a tipoff to you. [...]

I’m convinced that I left my body when I decided to go into the living room, and met Miss C. who was traveling in her dream body, wandering about in her old surroundings and coming in for help as she used to do. [...]

(9:53.) In the waking state you travel to places. [...]

There are jet travelers and those who have never seen a train, so your own system of reality contains vast contrasts. [...]

Even those who have never seen an airplane can travel from place to place in the twinkling of an eye, and the poor are fed, the ignorant are wise, the sick are well. [...]

When you attempt space travel for example, you are attempting to travel around the complete fruit, but only within or upon one layer of skin. The circle is indeed important; and traveling in one dimension only about it, on the physical plane even, would require more, much much more, abilities than you have available.

[...] She achieved a much greater degree, however, as when she attempted to travel psychically and ended up in her trance of November 4, 1964. [...]

For that matter, the body is naturally well-equipped to handle “projection of consciousness,” or out-of-body travel, whatever you prefer to call it. [...]

[...] You are so “unrealistic” that it seems to you that you visit old houses, long ago torn down, or that you travel in exotic foreign cities that you have actually never visited.

Yet in such a small mass these intensities contain memories and experiences, electromagnetically coiled one within the other, through which I can travel, even as I can travel through other selves which I have known and which are a portion of my identity—and even as you, so large and bulky in your size, are still a portion of those memories that exist within my identity, and yet so beautifully unpredetermined. [...]

[...] When so-called space travel becomes truly popular, truly practical, it will come along these lines.

The self will truly utilize the atoms and molecules; the consciousness will travel by this method. [...]

[...] Space travel, when it occurs, will utilize expansion of self. [...]

[...] After entry into your plane, the self or identity, the consciousness, without any physical act, can leave the physical body, expand, travel through the medium of atoms and molecules, and completely reassemble.
