“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

But the world is not filled with strangers, and so our friend here, Joseph, glimpsed a counterpart of himself who lived — in your terms, now — in one particular era.¹¹ In deeper terms that era still exists, and that is something you should not forget. [...]

11. It’s of interest here to note that although he referred to my three Roman-officer perceptions of last October in the 721st session (which itself was held a month after I’d experienced them), Seth didn’t mention that I had a second Roman-soldier counterpart living in the same time and area of the world in the first century A.D. I didn’t ask about any such possibility, either. [...]

To me, this fact alone lends a credence to his visions that bolsters my own in the most meaningful way: I think our tower experiences of so long ago (in terms of linear time), plus our mutual artistic backgrounds now, with their corresponding social implications, are too closely allied to be explained as “coincidence” in the objective fact world. [...]

[...] He told us that a European artist had done a portrait of him while he’d been a soldier in World War II. [...]

[...] We believe that this was a reference to World War II, when the salesman who waited on us had his portrait done as a soldier. [...]

[...] Was Instream throwing out all of these results and countless other evidence gained in parapsychology laboratories throughout the world?

[...] The figure manages to suggest the universe of men and the world that holds them, yet nowhere do these appear.

[...] In this world the artistic abilities were put first, but the mystical nature was given greater chances to expand and develop. [...]

Your questioning, Joseph (see Note 3), and your deep distrust of the world’s current theories, are shared as intensely by Ruburt, and your joint insistence upon discovering new answers is responsible for these sessions, and what will come from them.

[...] There can be communication between at least some of these worlds. [...]

[...] Then came long periods of military service for the three of us (World War II for Linden and me). [...]

[...] It is already blessed by All That Is before its birth, and its desires, impulses, and characteristics are also inherently good, meant to insure its own fulfillment, to bring out its best characteristics, and to help the rest of the world as well—all very important issues. [...]

[...] Again, there are exceptions where memory is retained, but as a rule ghosts and apparitions are not any more aware of their effect upon others than you are when you appear quite unconsciously as ghosts in worlds that would be quite strange to you.

He felt that in your world and interpretation his ideas were Pollyanna, but I tell you that is practical creativity—and it can wipe out many negative beliefs, more in a moment than you can realize.

[...] Intuitively the connection between pleasurable creative activity and the mundane world of having to make money with it is to some extent broken.

[...] The fact that the images were of yourselves shows that your destruction was turned inward even though materialized in the outer world.

(Jane dictates:) Some substances produced mentally are absolutely necessary for the maintenance of a world. [...]

[...] (With emphasis:) The creativity of the psyche means that no one world or experience could ever contain it. [...]

[...] This applies in terms of world goals “at any given time.”

(Still buzzing …) Give us a moment … For example: In certain terms, you are working with the challenge of how best to use the world’s resources. [...]

As you create physical matter constantly without knowing that you do so, so also you create constantly a dream universe, and this dream universe is as individual as your environment in the physical world. [...]

[...] There is much material concerning the construction of atoms and molecules that will enable you to understand not only the physical world, but also the dream universe.

You create the dream world continuously. [...]

[...] It is important that your ideas circulate freely, and that the ideas of the peoples of the world circulate freely, just as it is important that your individual body has good circulation. [...]

[...] I also think that when an individual wants protection or shielding from the world badly enough, he or she will go to any length to get it.)

[...] In the physical world, such behavior often leads to compulsive action — stereotyped mental and physical motion and other situations with a strong repressive coloration. [...]

[...] And you dwell in a world in which words grow into a distorted lens that denies your own vision. [...]

Your physical senses, again, act almost like a biological alphabet, allowing you to organize and perceive certain kinds of information from which you form the events of your world and the contours of your reality.

[...] So restricted has her world become.

[...] The excerpts show not only something of Seth’s connections on the “other side” of Jane, but in one case her violent reactions of surprise and panic when she attempted to translate something of Seth Two’s reality in terms of our own camouflage world: She found herself deeply involved in an unexpected experience with “massiveness” — one of the subjects I want to refer to in these preliminary notes. [...]

[...] (My interpretation: “When we speak worlds form.”

In conventional terms, atoms are regarded as the submicroscopic entities making up all objects and substances in our world. [...]

[...] Then, from another angle, she explored related ideas in Adventures; see Chapter 19, “Earth Experience as a White Hole,” in which she wrote, “What kind of a structured universe could explain both the inner and exterior worlds? [...]

[...] You have held on to those methods to varying degrees, since after all it seems that the world shares them. [...]

[...] In those terms your thoughts mix and match with others in Framework 2, creating mass patterns that form the overall psychological basis behind world events. [...]

[...] Genetic structure makes possible physical organisms through which life is to be experienced, and to a large extent that structure must determine the kind of action possible in the world, and the way or ways in which volition can be effectively expressed.

[...] And all the while I worked on this note, I felt strong connections involving free will, determinism, and probable realities—connections largely unexpressed and unexplored in our world’s societies.

[...] A web works to help you manipulate in a world of space and time which is, indeed, as nebulous and as precarious, and as delicate, as any spider’s web, and hangs indeed in as precarious a balance. You form this and then perceive the world, but your viewpoint is very small and the garden you perceive very intimate, but within yourself you have far greater abilities of perception and you are not limited to Wednesday or Thursday. [...]

[...] Ruburt saw today that the intellectual portions of the self, and even the literal-mindedness, served an excellent purpose in allowing him to objectify highly intuitive material, and to give it actuality in the world that you know. [...]

[...] They operate quite obviously, also in your relationship with the world at large. [...]
