If you think in conventional terms about reincarnation, then you might examine a book in which each page is a life.
Reincarnation beyond time
You read the book from the beginning, so you think of one life or page following another.
You should be able to see that the entire book exists at once.
But in larger terms it is just one volume that you, the greater psyche, are reading, told in terms of serial time.
Instead, you are not only reading but writing many such books of living experience, that represent existences.
Pretend that you are a writer of fiction, and you create a character.
This character is so independent, alive, and real, that it in turn forms other characters – and each writes its own book or forms its own reality. That is a truer picture of your position.
Physically, the seeds of a plant fall onto the earth. They may be blown to some place distant from their birth, but the psyche’s “seeds” fly into other realities also.

Seth: If you think in conventional terms about reincarnation, then you might examine a book in which each page is a life. You read the book from the beginning, so you think of one life or page following another. You should be able to see that the entire book exists at once. But in larger terms it is just one volume that you, the greater psyche, are reading, told in terms of serial time.
Instead, you are not only reading but writing many such books of living experience, that represent existences. Creativity is endless, and the psyche is the greatest source of creativity. Pretend that you are a writer of fiction, and you create a character. This character is so independent, alive, and real, that it in turn forms other characters – and each writes its own book or forms its own reality. That is a truer picture of your position.
Physically, the seeds of a plant fall onto the earth. They may be blown to some place distant from their birth, but the psyche’s “seeds” fly into other realities also. Within all of this, however, there is the finest balance between spontaneity and order. Violets do not grow in wintertime. Their characteristics appear only when certain conditions are met. So if you were born in 1940 you have no trouble keeping track of your own time, and you fulfill your life under the same general conditions as those in which you were born.
