“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

As an analogy, you live in a self-constructed box with certain self-constructed senses to enable you to perceive the boxworld that you yourself have created. Any true concept has its origins outside your box, and continues beyond it.

It involves experiencing a concept completely, to the extent of being a concept completely; and already I hear shouts of dissent. No, you do not leave what you are pleased to call yourself behind. You merely change what you are into a different pattern.

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.

Many in the group to which you refer are not being consciously or unconsciously false to themselves. They simply know no better. In your dealings with these people you would immediately find yourself in difficulty. The hypocrisy simply would not go deep enough.

One man you have known in a previous life. There was a debt involved which was paid off. There is no need now for you to humiliate yourself to seek his favor, as you have paid off in full your debt to him. There is also a man’s wife who would intuitively know what you were up to. Such practicality doesn’t seem very practical to me.
