“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, you each generally agree, I am sure, that you sit upon a couch. You do not perceive the same couch. You only perceive your own idea constructions. You cannot perceive those of another. Telepathically you transpose your ideas in line with what you know of the other person’s thinking. You agree that the couch is here. Now, it is true that within your physical system—for I know this will come next from our friend Florence—you can measure your couch. I expect at any moment anyone will get a ruler and measure it and then say to me that the couch is so long—how can you say it is not one couch? However, within your physical system the instruments themselves are distorted and, of course, they will agree with what they measure. There is no reason why they should not. Telepathically you all agree upon the placement of objects and their dimensions.

There are other root assumptions that you take as a basis of reality. And in other levels of reality there are other root assumptions. These are the seeming laws by which you govern your experiences. Our note-takers (Sally and Florence) are doing very well considering that the paper is not solid and neither is the pen. It is amazing what you can do with nothing!! Now I will let you take a break.

Actually you are with God now. It is you who do not realize this. I am not speaking only to our Lady of Florence, although it may seem as though I have that habit. You see, you have believed many tales, and symbolically they were very important, and as was mentioned earlier, they have their place in your lives and development. But there are times when you must leave them behind and you may feel lonesome for awhile without them.
