John, I have mentioned this before on this forum. It was the Seth material by Jane Roberts that led me to begin my inquiries. It was in 1975 that I first encountered the first book. I recall a concept that was mentioned that struck me as insane. It was "thought creates reality." I mulled over that and as I did, I was led along on the stream until I found Blavatsky.

Ton,
Thanks for your comments and post. I would like to indicate an interesting
Synchronicity from my point of view. As you say the "Seth Speaks" works
started appearing in 1975, which is also a cyclic dated year in Blavatskyian
futures. But there is something additional that of the Nag Hammadi Library which
after many years was Published under Auspices the Department of Antiquities of the
Arab Republic of Egypt, in conjunction with UNESCO. My copy was 1977 one of
the first 15 copies in LA, Ca.
The Nag Hammadi Library is cogent here because until this treasury of
codices were obtained there were never even one single text of the "Sethite"
Teachings of Seth. I never read the "Seth Materials" by Jane Roberts because at
that time I didn't want to mix the two streams together. I wanted to have the
Nag Hammadi Sethian Texts pristine. But as you and others have exposure you may
want to look at the Sethian Texts of the Nag Hammadi. I will list below those
Titles and they are already online of you Google them.
1. The Apocalypse of Adam
2. The Three Steles of Seth
3. The Gospel of the Egyptians (authored by Seth?)
4. The Paraphrase of Shem
5. The Second Treatise of the Great Seth
6. Melchizedek (has some concepts and elements of Sethians)
7. Allogenes
8. The Trimorphic Protennoia (has Sethian concepts and elements)
Another interesting content here is the Triple Power name of Jesus:
" Iesous-Aberamenthou-Setheus "
I would look forward to your reports of the convergence's you may find
between Jane Roberts Materials and the Sethian texts of the Nag Hammadi that you may
find and share.
Regards,
John
