“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now you form the physical image that you know unconsciously. Because you see it in a mirror and experience its reality you take it for granted that it is real. Even our friend, Edgar, believes that he has a physical body. As I told you I have some difficulty at times explaining to my own friends that you so believe such a hallucination is real. There are other portions of your reality also formed by your thoughts and emotions however, that are not so obvious to you. You are not aware of them and so you do not accept them as a portion of your own experience and yet they do exist. I am not referring now simply to probable selves. I am referring to what you may call freewheeling energy that you release filled with your own intent and emotional coloration which has a reality in other spheres beside your own. This reality acts within the physical fear though its main existence is not within it. It has therefore an electromagnetic effect within your system although you cannot perceive it physically. It is a psychological reality or a psychic one if you prefer. Now each of you, to some extent or another, build up such forms as you may refer to them. They are conscious. All form has consciousness. You give birth to them automatically. They are a product of your own psychic and mental and psychological activity and so they exist whether or not you perceive them. They are extensions of you from your point of view. They can almost be considered as extra perceptive mechanisms that exist apart from the physical one. They formed through concentrations of energy. Now when you use all of your energy to manipulate in the physical reality there is little left to form such images. When you learn through relaxation to accept life spontaneously and to trust to your own inner being then this energy is released. You become, therefore, more effective.

They are energy forms rather than thought forms. There is a difference.

([Wally:] “Thoughts have energy, Seth.”)

But energy forms depend upon strong, very powerful concentrations of energy whether thought or emotion is involved. These are in your terms, excesses of energy that shoot out from you like stars  but coalesce into a shape and a form. They are usually the result of, in your terms, a long term build up of energy although the same effect can be reached by one extremely powerful image or thought. There is however a difference. Now I have always referred to myself as a personality energy essence because it was true and also because it sounded very safe to Ruburt. You could not argue against it. He did not have to say that I said I was a spirit or I was some sort of a White God or that I was an illuminati. The term was simple and he could accept it. It is a lovely term if I do say so myself. I will stick with it always. I will see that Ruburt puts it in his introduction.

Now I am going to ask you once again to close your eyes to follow me to the best of your ability. You do not have to follow me to the best of your ability. You do not have to follow me and visitors here this evening do not have to feel as if they must follow me. Allow yourselves the freedom not to follow me if you do not feel like it. Others of you allow yourself the freedom to follow me. Now regular class members are aware of the way in  which I use this voice. I want  you then to realize that the energy within it also is the energy within you. That is, you have the same energy within you, if you decide to use it you can do so. I use it only to show you that it is also available to you. I want you then to translate the sound of the voice into intensities of different kinds of perception. I want you to use the energy behind the voice to remind yourself of your own energy. I want you to open yourselves to the realization that you are multidimensional and to experience this multidimensionality in personal terms, not theoretically. I want you then to have an emotional experience in which if even only for a moment, you experience the fullness and vitality of your own nature and of your own identity. I want you to feel within yourself your own abilities and energy and power. I want you to feel it so strongly that the realization and the intimate knowledge will remain within you. Now even as this voice grows stronger let the feelings within yourselves grow stronger and let you feel your own energy from the inner self fill your consciousness and your physical being with vitality and knowledge and the joy of existence. Let the sound of the voice, therefore, bring out in yourselves the power of your own identity and independence, the integrity of your own being. Let it bring within you the memory of all yourselves. Let you then awaken to the selves that you are now. Let you become aware of your own parts, let the separated areas within your  personalities awaken to themselves and join forces. Let the power and vitality and creativity of the inner self within you fill you now with knowledge and creativity and the joy and essence of vitality. Let it ring throughout the cells of your body and dance within the cells of your brain. Let it uplift your spirit. Let it give you, indeed, a vitality and strength that will remain within you personally with which  you can identify and let it lead you directly to the inner selves that are your own. And now with a whisper I leave you to yourselves. Open your eyes to the room and to the time that you know but feel that vitality and know it is your own. And when you are dead as I have been, in your terms, for all this time I hope you can yell as lustily as I can.
