Product Description
Book Description
In 1963, Jane Roberts, an intelligent and somewhat skeptical writer and college graduate, began to receive a series of communications from "an energy essence personality" who called himself Seth. Psychic investigator Richard Roberts has chosen from some 3,000 pages the most thought-provoking and helpful of Seth words from eight Seth books ranging from The Seth Material (1970) to the last book Dreams, "Evolution," and Value Fulfillment (1986). Among the topics are the nine "families of consciousness, the evolution of Earth and its creatures, how thoughts form reality, how we create our lives from the dream state, the illusion of time, simultaneous incarnations, "probable" alternate selves, unknown realities, the three "Christs," and the eternal validity of the soul. Introduction: "A Brief History of Channeling."
From the Back Cover
According to psychic investigator Richard Roberts, unlike the other guides of many so-called "channels," Seth demonstrates omniscient consciousness. Roberts cites evidence from the Nag Hammadi scrolls-untranslated until after the publication of Seth's words-to corroborate Seth's commentary about the Crucifixion. Further, Seth predicts that St. Paul, dissatisfied at the way organized religion has corrupted the teachings of Jesus, will reincarnate in the next century to truly accomplish His mission.

4.0 out of 5 stars
several comments,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Seth Reader (Paperback)
This is a nice selection of Seth's writings. As the other reviewer said, most of the extraneous comments have been omitted -- altho he left a good number in. I happen to like the comments because they gave me some idea of what these people were like. No one I know does anything like this.My problem with this book is the number of typos in it. I found THEM distracting. It wasn't just that no one ran the finished manuscript thru a spell check, no one carefully read the finished manuscript -- some of the words are wrong, not just misspelled. But, on the whole, it's a good overview of the material.

Useful excerpts from six Seth books,
By Amanda Werhane - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: A Seth Reader (Paperback)
Note that this book is a collection of excerpts from six of the Seth books. The excerpts were taken straight from the books by a man named Richard Roberts (no relation to Jane) who added a brief introduction on the History of Channeling.I've rated this book highly for three reasons: Firstly, because the Seth material in itself is so valuable. If you want to get a brief tour through a few of the many dense books in which this philosophy is laid out, start here, along with Seth Speaks. Secondly, because Richard Roberts cut out the copious interjections and footnotes which add to the density of the Seth books. These notes were written by Jane's husband, Robert Butts, who transcribed the channeling sessions. Though useful, they can be distracting (especially to a new reader). And thirdly, because even long-time collectors of the Seth material can use this Reader for quick reference or as an introductory book to lend curious friends. You should be aware, however, that this is not a comprehensive collection of excerpts, as there are more than six books to the Seth material. Most notably missing is The Nature of Personal Reality, which was the first Seth book I ever read, and which turned me on for life. 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful
