SETH said: The magical approach takes it for granted that the human being is a united creature, fulfilling purposes in nature even as the animals do, whether or not those puposes are understood. (pause.)  The magical approach takes it for granted that each individual has a future, a fulfilling one, even though death may be tomorrow.  The magical approach takes it for granted that the means for development are within each individual, and that fulfillment will happen naturally.  Overall, that approach operates in your world.  If it did not, there would be no world.  If the worst was bound to happen, as scientists certainly think, even evolution, in their terms, would have been impossible, of course - a nice point to put somewhere (all intently).

Seth can get irritated/frustrated with Jane and me.  This exerpt is from the private session of November 11, 1979:  “… the same kind of reaction, however, are involved in all activities, and it is sometimes frustrating for me that you cannot perceive the fascinating facets of any event.  You still - and I do not simply mean you two alone - do not feel the unsurpassable force that thoughts have.  You do not understand that they do form events, that to change events you must first change thoughts.  You get what you concentrate on.”
