“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I am sure that you realize these points yourself. I do after all, and regardless of what you may think, credit you both with a certain sense of intelligence and imagination.

This difference in immediacy is rather important for our consideration of the inner senses. This is also why I mentioned that the ears and the eyes, while connected with the body, are directed outward. They bring data to the body but very seldom do they collect data from the body. I am beginning to get into some material that is relatively difficult to explain, considering that I must take all of your camouflage patterns into consideration.

I am deliberately being deliberate. And for the present I am using Ruburt’s voice, making no effort to superimpose my own. And for good reason. I do not want this material to be considered any sort of mumbo jumbo. It is not a cult in the terms that people often consider material that seems to come from a source beyond the individual who gives it.

The designations spirit, and medium and so forth, are ridiculous to begin with. You are simply using inner senses. These senses are not magical, they certainly are not religious in any sense of the word, and I am not some degenerating secondary personality of Ruburt’s. Nor will I be compared with some long-bearded, beady-eyed spirit sitting on cloud nine.

I have more or less avoided giving you the kind of so-called evidence that would be so handy in explaining me to others. I helped you one night to keep your interest high. This occurred during the beginning of our sessions. I am also a personality in myself. I am not going to run around in circles, perform tricks, move rings, throw rocks and so forth. This material is legitimate, speaks for itself, and I will not embellish an otherwise sensible and excellent performance with circus tactics to impress those who will not be impressed under any circumstances.

The reason I am using solidity here is that we are dealing with the world of camouflage, and sound waves and light waves are definite on your plane and can be measured. They are not solid as your tree is solid, but they are solid in degree. That is, they manifest themselves well enough to be recorded on your instruments.

He would in no way lose consciousness of who he was, and he would perceive these experiences, again, somewhat in the same manner that you perceive heat and cold. In your camouflage pattern you must adapt yourself to the effects of heat and cold, but our man in the inner world would not be under any such obligation. I am speaking now only of our first inner sense.

I am not going to keep you too long this evening in any case. However I do want to mention the fact that the inner senses are capable of expansion and of focus in a way that the outer senses are not. They simply extend further, though I am speaking now in your terms rather than my own. And as to where the inner world actually is on your plane, I will go into that at our next session.
