“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Unless you realize you are free, you cannot use your freedom! Unless you realize that the life force is manifest now in every atom of your being, then you cannot form the physical reality that you want to form. For instead, you form physical pictures that are replicas of your fears.

No. There is a point where you are so imprisoned within yourself that you cannot feel the reality of others. Now, as a teacher, you must be able to sense the reality of others and in teaching relate the self that you are to the selves you sense they are, independently of you and therefore give their integrity full freedom. You can to some extent escape this prison, personally, by attempting several exercises.

One is to relate to your animals. For a brief time think of them as they are—unrelated to you. Imagine what it is like also to be a tree, to be a nail, and then to be an entirely different consciousness. Then after many trials, make an attempt at a bridge from their consciousness to the self that you think of as you. This will allow you some freedom.
