“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The information brings, because of its nature, much more than you might think in its implications. In wishing to close himself to such information, Ruburt would wish to close himself off from beneficial knowledge, and from the kind of exploration which in itself expands, and opens barriers that are not really barriers but doorways.

This sort of experience does, for you, indeed have its unpleasant side, and the ego most naturally combats. Nor is this to be unexpected for any physical death, or knowledge of any such physical death, is considered automatically as a threat by the ego. Hence Ruburt fears that he, and not his mother, is here involved.

Because of its relative freedom, however, the self, returning from the dream world, can impart to the individual knowledge of much the physical self could not ordinarily be aware. Much of this knowledge, then, resides in the subconscious while the ego goes on its way.

These projections, from this dimension into others in this manner, again, are not unusual. Projections in terms of reference points appear also in your dimension, and you have as little knowledge or understanding of their true nature, as inhabitants of other dimensions have of your own.

The whole self as you know has its existence in uncamouflaged energy, and is therefore capable of the assimilation of knowledge in so far as it can, if it chooses, be basically unaffiliated to any one camouflage dimension or perspective. In actual practice this takes a supreme development, but even for general purposes the inner self retains a freedom from camouflage perspectives, and is aware in varying degrees of other perspectives, and of its existence outside of them.

Through the inner senses, therefore, some enlightenment can be received as to both the actual existence of dimensions that the physical self cannot perceive; and also through the inner senses, a sense of confidence and continuity can be achieved through the inner self’s knowledge of its freedom.
