“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The chair is being fully constructed simultaneously and instantaneously. Now take the blade of grass, and the seed. Energy and the consciousness within continually constructs itself into completely new constructions; because of the various speeds I have spoken of, and because you do not perceive the full reality, you do not notice the simultaneous constructions, and think them continuous, rather than separate and ever new.

I have not known either of your guests before, but then I do not have to. I am not the nervous one. It is Ruburt who constantly, and oftentimes bull-headedly, blocks what I have to say.

He worked on tablets of stone, and was given social position because of this ability, though he did not come from well-to-do parents.

You can come close to understanding this reality if you will once more consider an analogy that we made much earlier. Do you remember our imaginary painting that hung upon the wall?

Examination of the back of the painting would show nothing. The elements of the painting would expand in the same way that I have told you the universe expands, in a way that has nothing to do with space but of value fulfillment, which has its own kind of depth and perspective, and which exists not only behind but within the construction of matter.

Ruburt I believe once wrote a poem in which he stated, much more poetically indeed, that pain was deeper than a lake or a river; and this type of depth is that to which I refer here. There are perspectives of which you know relatively little, and they in turn are frameworks, forming physical constructions, actual physical constructions, which you do not perceive.

I certainly do appreciate, and indeed do enjoy, your lively discussions. And I do indeed recall Ruburt’s rather daring, but more nearly stupid, blunderings into his first deep trance.

The mind constructs into matter its own idea of reality, and this is where personal expectation comes into play. You do not only create your own environment, generally speaking, you create it concretely, in forms of mass and matter.

It has to do simply with the ebb and flow of your own energies; and we will have a session soon, dealing with the experiments which you have listed.
