源于热情，四季常青——赛斯谈各地读者群

我想指出的是，全国各地的赛斯读者群远比你们可能意识到的更重要，因为它们不是由任何形式的推广而形成的。它们是自发产生的，尽管事实上你们并没有积极地鼓励它们，甚至没有和它们联络感情。

从这方面来看，他们是草根，来自于人民本身。那些人从自己的角度解读我们的书。他们把这些书看作是他们的发现。他们买书给亲朋好友。他们试图把这些概念传递给父母或孩子，并通过家庭生活、工作领域和所在社区来诠释这些概念。他们投入时间和热情——从长远来看，这种基层发展比专家们的任何权威言论更容易改变一个社会的信念，无论哪个领域的专家。你们正在成为明天的“权威”。

 ——赛斯《私人课》第四册

I want to point out that the Seth groups throughout the country are far more significant than you might realize, for they are not formed as a result of any kind of promotion. They arise spontaneously, and despite the fact that you do not actively encourage them, or even pat them on the back.

In that respect they are grassroot, coming from the people themselves. Those people interpret our books from their own levels. They regard the books as their discoveries. They buy the books for friends and relatives. They try to pass on the ideas to parents or children, and to interpret them through home life, and through areas of work and community. They invest time and enthusiasm—and that kind of grassroot development is in the long run more apt to change the beliefs of a society than any authoritative dictums from the specialists, whatever their field. You are reaching tomorrow's “authorities.”
