“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I have mentioned earlier the peculiar problems of your scientists as with tools and instruments they attempt to reduce reality to their terms. Any instruments made on your plane are like your outer senses, constructed to perceive camouflage patterns. The instruments of the scientists, and the outer senses themselves, are camouflage patterns and cannot, and never will, dissect themselves.

Only in this case the hallucinary effects are actual constructions upon the plane in question, and involve problems that must be worked out. The hallucinations appear more or less consistent merely because everyone on that particular level is under the effects of self-hypnosis, and because they have already constructed hallucinary senses, the outer senses, in order to perceive the hallucinary world that they have created.

When this focus is finished, when the subject tells himself “Now I will come to, now I have solved the problems that I set out to solve,” then what happens is the withdrawal of the self from the plane. The construction vanishes and is heir to the materials which compose the particular universe.

(Break at 10:35. Jane was dissociated as usual. During break John wondered about the practicality of idea-concept application in the camouflage world. He was interested because he said he had been considering, lately, his own approach to certain problems in the business world. He is a drug salesman.

Mankind thought that killing worked. It was the most practical solution, or so it seemed, to many problems. You know now that killing is not practical, since it is being brought home to you in a very practical manner that in the long run he who kills will not survive.

The so-called practical solution to your problems, Philip, is hardly practical and for many reasons. In the first place, having little respect for yourself for following such a course, you would not even be able to put on the act which you contemplate. Your sense of falseness would immediately be picked up by your superiors.
