(Seth II:) Fantasies are the realities your intellect does not perceive in other fantasies, therefore, those others who watch you and who watch without any awareness of the intellect as you understand it. They and we perceive you then in our place. You would call yourselves fantasies. Our perception allows us to tune into the particular fantasies that you perceive as one indivisible reality. We can perceive it, but we cannot participate, only observe that which, in your terms... eons ago we helped create as you are now continuing in what you might call dreams our fantasies now do create. As we peer into your room, so do you peer into other realities all unknowing. You do not physically recall those journeys that you have yourselves made and are now making. You leave from any moment of your time and you are gone sometimes for centuries of physical time. You leave in the middle of a day and return the day before yesterday or a thousand years hence. Now, that is reality .... The small portion that you perceive is but one letter on a page. You cannot comprehend its meaning for the entire word is hidden. Not because it must be, but because you are becoming. At this stage you are only perceiving a portion of your own becoming. We perceive your present room, understanding that you consider it this indivisible reality and yet our presence was sensed. You should therefore understand the very air and breath is in a state of becoming. The air that carries the voice and moves the lungs is itself a method of communication and itself becoming aware.

(Seth:) ...this was in your inner senses and perceiving a different kind of reality in the same way that you formed what you saw on an unconscious basis, in your terms, so you form the physical matter that forms the room on an unconscious basis. What you saw therefore was as valid as what you see in the room, if you understand the connection between the phenomenon.
You have all been exercising your inner sense to one degree or another. You are to forget the idea that what you see physically is the only reality, and that what only one perceived must be an hallucination if it is not perceived by the others. A reality is a reality regardless of how many perceive it. It is only at your present point of comprehension that you judge reality according to the number of people who perceive the same thing. You do this simply because you are afraid of standing on your own two feet, figuratively speaking. You are afraid of going off into your own realities afar from your fellows ...and yet to a large degree you do so all of the time in the daily life that you know.

Now you can close your minds to such possibilities, or you can open your imagination and inner perceptions and try to perceive them. You can take a step out of the self that you think you are and the world that you think you inhabit.

Now, my friend, Ruburt, has had some time this evening and so I am not going to keep you long, but I hope that these sessions do stretch your own concepts and I would like to have each of you catch yourselves peering into other realities. It is a good exercise. Even imagining concepts as physical objects will help you. I have just given you a very good clue in that last sentence. Think about that sentence and put it to use.
