《灵魂永生》附录ESP课（1971年1月5日）

（这节课是在班上讨论转世与可能性之后进行的，课堂上赛斯所做的评论及学生所问的问题，展示了赛斯课有来有往的特色，以及赛斯课所涵盖的范围。）

古罗马至今还存在，埃及和亚特兰提斯也一样。你们不但在塑造你们所认为的未来，也在塑造过去。过去你们听来的都是些简单的故事，它们也的确很动听，但如果不打算了解更多，你们也不会来到这里。

你，与你所有转世的自己或人格，并不受时间所困。你们所认为的“现在的我”、“过去的我”以及“未来的我”之间有着经常不断的相互作用。若非如此，我也不会在这里发言，因为我并不是鲁柏的“过去的自己”。每个人格都是自由的。时间在所有的方向都是开放的，否则像“可能性”这种东西也不可能存在。因此，你现在的行为可以帮助一个所谓的过去人格；而所谓的未来人格也可以介入进来并在你步履蹒跚之际助你一臂之力。

同样，你现在的行动不仅可以影响未来的人格，也能影响过去的人格。你必须试着伸展你的想象力来感觉这些实相，因为光凭知性你无法理解它们，而感知这些事实的最好方法就是“心理时间”。

你能感觉那些未必能用语言形容的东西，因为你大于你的大脑。我不是诗人，但套用鲁柏的诗句：把大脑想作是你绕着“内我”形成的网。这张网帮助你在一个时空世界里纵横捭阖，而这张网也像任何一张蜘蛛网一样似有若无、飘摇而娇弱。你形成了这张网，然后透过这张网来感知世界，范围不过井中之天，所及之处仅止于近身枝叶。然而，你所拥有的认知能力却远大于此。我希望你能了解你的“内我”或“灵魂”的本质，它才是一切其他实相因之而生的实相焦点。它也不是任何以天、周甚至世纪为单位的人间岁月小盒子所能禁锢的东西。

现在休息，我一会儿就回来。

（在休息时，一个学生，Janice.S，想要知道赛斯是不是珍的人格的一部分。）

好了，鲁柏没法像我这么容易地回答你。我们最初是同一存有的一部分。后来，我走我的阳关道，他过他的独木桥。所以我们都是独立的个体。

（Janice.S：“换句话说，是不是这个存有的所有部分都在演化？他们是作为一个整体发展的吗？”）

我已经演化到形成了自己的存有，鲁柏也将如此，但用你们的话说，他还没达到那个阶段。当然，如果从另一个参考角度来看，他已经达到了。在他之内也涵盖了其自身较未发展的部分，因为他们作为整体存在。他自己的所有部分对这种通讯皆有所知，仅用你们的话说，我可能被当做他将来的“第六层自己”——我曾告诉过鲁柏此事；但这种说法只是为了让你们明白这概念，因为他不可能成为现在的我。那是不可能的。我就是我自己。

有很多问题无法用语言回答，要了解只能用直觉。不过我的存在以及我能与你们沟通这个事实，至少揭示了一件事，简而言之，就是你人格的其他“较高面”有时候可以帮助你解决问题。

（Janice.S：“你一直在教转世这门课吗？”）

教学一直是我的主要目标，但我并不是一直都做老师。我曾经做过一次香料商人，一个圆滚滚胖墩墩的香料商。

（Janice.S：“但很帅，是吧？”）

真拿你没办法。早在你们这一代年轻人迷上大麻以前，我们已经会用香料了。早在1600年代我们在航船上吸牛至，飘飘欲仙。（译者注：本课后来有同学提出关于牛至的问题，一并编辑在此：（Terry B：你从哪儿弄到的牛至？你以什么方式吸它？赛斯：是从印度群岛来的，它是干的。）我们把香料带到丹麦，着实有过不少愉快的旅行。我们远探非洲南岸。而我是个相当讲究美食的人。

所有你所谓的“过去”就存在于现在的你之内，你能重新捕捉你的记忆并发现你的过去。你并不为时间所困，除非你相信时间能困住你，而世上没有比“信念”更重要的东西。如果你相信自己只有这一辈子，如果你相信你注定只有死或灰飞烟灭，那你在此生就不会善用你的自由。即使这些自由向你展示出来，你也否认它们的能力，但除了你自己，没有人把这枷锁强加于你。要了解你多维度的自己就必须运用这个自由。

ESP CLASS SESSION:

TUESDAY, JANUARY 5,1971

(This session followed a class discussion on reincarnation and probabilities. Seth’s comments and the students ’ questions show the give-and-take characteristic of class sessions, and demonstrates their scope.）

Ancient Rome exists, and so does Egypt and Atlantis. You not only form the future, as you think of it, but you also form the past. You have been told simple tales, and they are delightful ones; but if you were not ready to hear more you would not be in this room.

You and your reincarnated selves, or personalities, are not imprisoned in time. There is a constant interchange going on between what you think of as your present self, and your past and future selves. If this were not the case, then I would not be speaking here, for I am not Ruburt’s past self. Each personality is free. Time has open ends in all directions or such a thing as probabilities would not exist. Therefore, actions that you make now can help a so-called past personality; and a so-called future personality may step in and help you along your weary way.

Also, your actions now can affect the future personality as well as the past one. You must try to stretch your imagination and feel these realities, because the intellect alone cannot comprehend them. Psychological time is your best method for perceiving these actualities.

You can feel what you cannot necessarily describe verbally, for you are more than the physical brain that you have now. I am no poet, but as in one of Ruburt’s poems, think of the brain as a web you form about the inner self. This webwork helps you manipulate in a world of space and time, and is as nebulous, precarious and delicate as any spider’s web —and 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. You have, however, far greater abilities of perception. I want you to understand the nature of your inner self, or soul, for it is a focal point of reality from which other realities spring. It is not imprisoned in tiny boxes of days or weeks or months, or even of centuries.

Now I will let you all take a break, and I will return in a moment.

（During break a student, Janice S., wanted to know if Seth was a part of Jane’s personality.）

Now:Ruburt cannot answer you as easily as I can. We were originally a portion of the same entity. I evolved along my own ways and he evolved along his. Therefore we are both independent.

（Janice S.: “In other words, all parts of the entity are evolving? Are they developing as one? ”）

I evolved to form my own entity. Ruburt will also, but he is not at that stage yet, in your terms. In another frame of reference he is, of course. He also contains those portions of himself that are less developed, for they all exist as one. All the parts of himself are aware of this correspondence. In your terms only, I could be referred to —and I have told Ruburt this —as a sixth self of his in his future; but this is only to get the idea across, for he will not become what I am. That is impossible. I am myself.

There are certain answers that cannot be given verbally, but must be intuitively understood. Yet the fact that I exist and can communicate should show you, in simple terms, that other ‘‘higher aspects” of your personality can help you out on occasion.

（Janice S.: “Have you always taught on reincarnation? ”）

Teaching has been my main object, but I have not always been a teacher. I was a spice merchant at one time. A round and fat and heavy spice merchant.

（Janice S.: “But handsome.”）

I do not know what to do with you. We learned what spices would do long before the present generation got hung-up on grass. We got high on the high seas, sniffing oregano. （In the 1600’s.） We brought spices to Denmark; we had delightful trips indeed. We explored far down the coast of Africa. I was quite a gourmet.

Now: All of your so-called pasts exist within you now, and you can recapture your memories and discover what they are. You are not imprisoned in time unless you believe that you are, and there is nothing more important than belief. If you believe that you exist only within the context of this life, that you are born only to death and annihilation, then you will not use your freedoms in this existence. You deny their abilities when they show themselves, yet no one forces this bondage upon you but yourself. To understand your multidimensional self is to use it.
