Session 438

SESSION 438 SEPTEMBER 23, 1968 9:10 PM MONDAY (Jane had a call from Tam Mossman at Prentice-Hall today, during which we obtained some confirmation on points made by Seth in a recent session. There was also a strange similarity between some of the data given in the seance, by Jane, in the 435th session.

(During the seance, Jane rubbed first her left arm and then her right arm, saying they hurt. This was after she had gone through an auto accident; Seth has told us this accident is in reality two accidents, one involving B. Macdonnel in California, the other a future possible event involving Tam’s girl Eve, in or near New York City. In the seance Jane was not Eve, but the driver of the car in the accident; she was a woman, with Eve a passenger beside her.

(The seance-session, the 435th, was held on Wednesday, September 11, 1968. Mossman during his call today told Jane that his girl Eve broke her right arm over the past weekend, sometime during the 20th-22nd. Note the similarity re the arm problems.

(In the 436th session Seth advised caution on Eve’s part in order to forestall or change the probabilities re this future accident. Seth described an older woman, about 35, with whom Eve rides, as possibly being involved in the accident as driver, and named certain days the accident was more likely to take place on. Today Tam Mossman confirmed that Eve does ride to work at Prentice-Hall with a woman fitting Seth’s description, including the age given; he said eve would ride with him on the specified days in order to alter the probabilities.

(At 9:10 Jane again had “a slight pyramid feeling. But I think it’s Seth.” This sensation has become more and more common.)

Good evening.

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

Now. All probabilities and all possibilities have their origin in notime.

Some of these are perceived and experienced as definite events within your own system. It is you who choose among the probabilities, and from these you form the given collection that compose any particular event.

You use probabilities like blocks to build events. You choose. Now. This presupposes inner knowledge and calculations, for you must be aware of the probabilities in order to choose from them. The inner self therefore has and uses this knowledge. These probabilities include webworks and probable action and reaction, involving not only yourself but others.

Your computers are toys when compared with these inner workings. The main nature of events, the majority of events, do not in quotes “solidify” until the last moment, in your terms. According to your understanding and interpretation of the word, events, none are predetermined by a source outside of yourselves.

The given environment of your childhood for example was chosen by you and determined by you. Within this framework you also gave yourself the freedom to manipulate and change. The main events of a civilization are chosen by its people, but because a course is begun this does not mean that it cannot at any point be changed.

Events are materialized in your time from their origins in notime, then. (Long pause.) There is no end in those terms to the source or supply of probabilities, therefore notime is not a static, completed cosmic storehouse. It is being continually added to. Each event that you form from any given set of probabilities automatically gives rise to new probabilities.

The nature of any given probable action does not lead to any particular inevitable concluding act.

You had better underline that sentence.

Probabilities expand in terms of value fulfillment. One given act does not necessarily then lead to act B and C, and hence to a concluding action. Instead it has offshoots in infinite directions, and these offshoots have offshoots. Sessions on the creative dilemmas and the sessions dealing with relative non-being will help you here.

Give us a moment. (Pause.) This is what I know of reality, but there is more to be known.

(Jane leaned back in her rocker, eyes closed as she paused. Her pace hadn’t been fast up to now, but it became even slower.)

“Outside” in quotes of the realities of which I am aware and others are aware, there are systems that we cannot describe. They are massive energy sources, (pause) , cosmic energy banks , who make possible the whole reality of probabilities.

We are moving in that direction. Portions of the entity in quotes “arrive” before other portions, and send us communications that we can hardly understand. The other personality who speaks is on the edge of such a system. (Long pause. ) The other system is the inside of the inside. It has seen the birth and death of many physical universes such as your own; and the entities within it, in quotes, “at one time” were the inhabitants of such universes. (Long pause.)

They have evolved beyond all probabilities as we understand them, yet outside of probabilities they still have existence. (Pause.) This simply cannot be explained in words. (Pause.) They form energy sources. Yet also all of this and all of probabilities does not minimize nor deny the individual, for it is the individual upon whom all else rests, and it is from the basis of the individual that all entities have their existence, and from which all kinds of evolutions spring.

Nor are the memories and emotions of an individual ever taken from him. They are always at his disposal, and those who have had connections with one another are always free to renew them, or to ignore them.

You may take your break.

(9:43. Jane slowly came out of trance. Her eyes were heavy and bleary; she said the trance had been a good one after the first few sentences. She yawned many times during break. Resume at 9:56.)

Most of these probable systems, returning to our earlier discussion, are open. You simply do not realize that this is the case.

In your system it seems as if you have chosen one course, one main line of probabilities, and that is the end of it. On other existences however you choose other probabilities. Now your own system is relatively (underlined) closed, in that within it as a rule only one ego predominates, and you think of yourself as that ego.

In other systems this is not necessarily the case. The time system within them is entirely different than your own. In these the inner self is aware of itself as more than one ego. (Pause.) The inner self can play more than one role at once, consciously in other words. Simply as an analogy, it would be as if within physical reality you lived, say, the life of a rich man of great talent, the life of a poor man with entirely different talents, and the life of a mother and career woman. You would be aware of yourself in each of these three roles, and find qualities being developed in each of the separate lives.

Again this is an analogy, for in several respects it could lead you astray if you took it too literally. In such a system there would be no breakup of time for example, since time does not exist in the same manner.

You would not spend for example part of a day as one personality and part as another. This will all be explained in good time. (Humorously.)

I am going to give you a brief session this evening. Affairs with Prentice are as I expected. I had better end the session. (Pause.) Otherwise I will be keeping you for another hour and a half.

(“How come?” (Smile.) Shall I answer you?

(“Briefly.” (Smile again.) The word is in your vocabulary and Ruburt’s, not mine.

(“Well, I’m just wondering what’s going on.” (Jane, as Seth, paused. Seth doesn’t allude very often to a subject in such a manner, so my curiosity was aroused. I knew Jane wasn’t at her best tonight, but thought it would be nice to get at least an inkling of what Seth was talking about. I was sure we’d be glad we did later.)

There will be three books rather than two, more or less clumped together. (Pause.) Though I do not mean this week or this month. (Long pause.) Ruburt is coming out of his dark ages. That will allow us more freedom. There will be a particular conversation of an evening, with I believe six people present, and during the conversation a project will be born, spontaneously, and it will to some extent change your lives.

A suggestion will be made, not by you or Ruburt, during this conversation, and it will be taken up by others. A plan for a book will evolve, and other plans. There is an H—Helena comes to mind, but it is probable that this Helena is merely connected to one of the women present.

Two men, one with a manuscript, perhaps of his own, though I am not sure here. The place of the meeting has not been settled upon by all of those involved. There seems to be another woman also, though she is somewhat apart from the group. I believe three of you—wait—you will know three, I believe, of those present, having met them at least once before this particular evening. Something to do with bricks. Something to be built upon.

A matter of money involved, and a program of study.

In one of the homes of those present there is a statue immediately within a front door, and perhaps a hallway. The statue seems to be crouching, short rather than tall and erect.

A journalist, a housewife, and a man of the bar.

Now this is not immediate. But it is a strong offshoot of the probabilities that now exist, and three will be connected with it in terms of a date. Perhaps then March, and again perhaps March 13, though this is interpretation.

One man you will like far less than the others gathered, but he will be with you nevertheless, and much more loyal than one of the women, who will impress you far more. She will have a strong connection with Europe.

Ten-o-seven. (This is the way Jane pronounced 1007.)

Now you may end the session or take a break, as you both prefer.

(“Well, I guess we’ll end it.” Although I wanted to know more.

(Smile; emphatic.) And you had better start keeping score.

(“Okay.”)

My heartiest wishes to you both. My fondest thoughts to our floppy Ruburt this evening.

(“Good night, Seth, and thanks very much.” (10:23. Again Jane was very well dissociated, she said. She felt sorry because she wasn’t very energetic this evening; Seth could have continued in a very chatty and social way for hours.

(The data above on a third book for Jane was entirely unexpected by us, and unasked for. No one has given Jane a hint re any such third volume, etc.

(A few more notes from the Mossman phone call to Jane today: Tam told Jane the book on the Seth material was practically a certainty; that is, as certain as one can get until a contract is signed. He also said he had written to Ruth Montgomery, asking her to do the introduction; if she agreed this might mean RM. would make a trip here. Tam also mentioned a personality like Hans Holzer, if RM. was unavailable, the point being that Prentice-Hall would like a name to do the intro. Tam said he would like to visit us again before the holidays.)
