“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

It is a giant step and a vital one, for without it the personality would be at the mercy so to speak of the very energy of which he is composed. He must learn to organize and command it, and your plane is one of the many where he gains practice and discipline in this respect. Otherwise you would have a willy-nilly chaotic arrangement, with the personality incapable of maintaining any discipline as far as his own chemical and electronic components were concerned.

When I speak of the terms electronically and chemically I do so for simplification, since electronics and chemicals are two facets of the same thing, merely manifestations of something else as heat and cold or fire and ice are manifestations of something else. I can exist electronically or I can exist chemically, and there is no contradiction or distortion in this statement. Many such apparent effects on your plane are also but manifestations.

(“Can you give us an instance of your chemical state?’)

(“When you’re in an actual chemical state.”)

(“Are you ever in a chemical state on this plane?”)

Rarely. There are just too many interconnections. This will have to wait for later sessions. On your plane mental enzymes cause many chemical reactions. On some other planes the mental enzymes are unnecessary, since the personality on a conscious level can work such transformations; and here again we run into an apparent contradiction, because while these transformations occur consciously on certain levels it is also true that the personalities concerned do not have to be conscious of the transformations. But they can be if they prefer.
