Jane Roberts introduced Seth to the world in 1972. Since then, the Seth books have sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. This book alone has sold close to a million copies. This is because its message is so simple; we are not at the mercy of the unconscious, or helpless before forces we don’t understand. Our conscious mind directs unconscious activity and has at its command all the powers of the inner self. These powers work according to our ideas about reality. Seth says: We are gods couched in creature-hood. We are given the ability to form our experience as our thoughts and feelings become actualised.
