“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

No concepts can be boxed in. The reality with which we are concerned flows through your camouflage world, forms the material with which you build your constructions, permeates every atom and molecule in your world, but does not originate in your world. That is, it does not originate in your camouflage world.

It does originate in the inner self that exists in your world, but is not of your world. The inner self-conscious ego as I have said—and this is for Philip’s edification—the inner self-conscious ego can be compared to another face, looking out upon a different world. And yet it is the driving personality and force in your world, and you use its energy as you construct your camouflage patterns.

The outer senses do not deal with direct perception of reality. The outer senses themselves are camouflage patterns, part of the necessary and essential physical body camouflage. They, the outer senses, are perceptors of camouflage patterns. They were developed on your level, to deal with your world. They are useless outside of your world. They are useless in themselves as far as enabling you to perceive inner reality. This is not their function.

Your outside egos are constructed to enable you to deal with the camouflage world. It is necessary. It necessarily also narrows your concentration and your understanding. During your existence you are focused, you are stuck to, you are placed and centered in, your physical universe by the outside ego. It manages your manipulation of camouflage material.

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.

(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.
