“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The disentanglement of her present personality has been gradual and gentle. She is focusing less and less upon this plane and will, again gradually, begin to focus upon another plane. She will not, therefore, experience as much shock. There is a period of adjustment after leaving any plane, although your plane involves the most difficulty since the camouflage pattern is unusually rigid.

You do not have to learn new things at the same time as you are struggling to exist in a strange environment. After death there is no instant struggle, where birth on your plane involves a pressing, agonizing attempt to get one’s bearings, and learn new patterns of behavior, when there is no time in your sense really to make any mistakes at all. The termination is always easier, believe it or not, than a beginning under such pressing circumstances as survival on a strange camouflage plane.

This is the case, but not the case. The choices are small to your way, but choice is not impossible. Actually there is choice, but the manipulation of camouflage is not developed along your lines. This does not mean that there is no consciousness in such species, nor does it mean there is no self-consciousness. There is, to a limited degree.

Now, so do the cells in your own body have self-consciousness and individuality to some extent, and so on a different scale entirely do they make decisions. Their decisions affect you, though they have but vague awareness that you exist as a whole at all. Their decisions indirectly affect your manipulations of camouflage, and of course directly influence your whole state of being. The cells are developed to the fullest at this time.

Your particular camouflage pattern is given to solids, among other things, and the idea of solids gives its alternative of something not solid or unfilled, which you call space. Your outer senses are themselves camouflages to deal with, and equipped to perceive, camouflages. On some other planes the camouflage pattern is so different as to be beyond your present comprehension.

These other planes that you would say exist simultaneously with you in the same space as your earth, are unperceived of course by you. Parallel existences occur constantly. Continual organized materialization realities are happening with their own cultures, histories, theories, camouflage patterns and distortions, with their own beings existing as individuals in your terms.

I have visited several. It is difficult to put this into words. These planes of which I have spoken have some basic similarity with your own, though the camouflage patterns have no similarity. That is, the similarity is one of organization, a variety of historical continuity, a strong and involved ego mechanism, a complicated camouflage code system; without, however, the dual inner and outer sense of alienation with which your race has become involved.

None of the above mentioned are aware of your plane. There is among others another classification beside culture establishment existences, and these keep camouflage patterns at a minimum and are not as similar as cultural establishment existences are to your own plane. These materialize camouflage pattern only at certain times to express and deal with inner conflicts not yet worked out. I did not intend to get into this so deeply yet, as it may be confusing to say the least.
