Seth on creativity in your past

[Sena]

"There are elements in your past that are as unpredictable, however, as the elements in your future now appear to be (emphatically). There is creativity in your past waiting for you even as there is in your future, but to utilize such experiences you must learn to alter your beliefs, and to some degree escape from the particular kind of limited conscious focus that you habitually use."

I think that people are interested in changing the past because they'd like to experience a different present, even a different future. They can't conceive that they could directly change the present, and accept the confines of the cause-effect paradigm.

Accordingly, your perceived past changes, not the past that you actually experienced. You draw a life path through the past, as you draw one into the future. Most of us can't perceive this happening.
