“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

...It means that the personality exists in many dimensions at once. Now this includes not only reincarnational material in your terms, but the realization that the personality in the dream state is actually as alert and conscious as it is in the waking state. Now pretend for a moment that you are your dreaming self. And you want to understand the nature of physical reality. So you must peek out at physical reality, while the body sleeps and the eyes are closed and the senses are “dimmed” in your terms. You would gain little information, and yet you are in the same position attempting to understand the nature of the dreaming state with your waking consciousness.

Also, there is an old relationship here going back some many centuries and not of an important nature. But there was an acquaintanceship when you knew each other and you realized this.

Now his attitude toward you is one of humorous affection. Give us time here. He also believes you are overextending yourself in trying too hard. You are naturally, regardless of what you think, a good business woman. And you can use your psychic abilities in that line. But when you become overconcerned, consciously, then you hamper good results.

This is a natural situation. However, the situation is a cover over the initial problem. And you will get nowhere—either in the relationship or without it—until you assert yourself in relation to your environment and realize that you are strong enough on your own to survive in physical reality. This is the problem that has been shielded behind the relationship. It is your fear that you could not survive that made you cling to the relationship. And it is still that fear that would make you want to continue it.
