“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Our prospects for the immediate future will involve discussions of our threefold universal fields, their development, interrelationship, correlations and reference points.

Data from one such universe can and does serve as a reference point in another. In such a circumstance, the data is of course interpreted according to the universe in which it appears. An action may occur therefore in the world of matter, and be perceived in both the universe of negative matter and the dream world, but in such a case each universe interprets the action according to, and within, its own framework of reference.

There will be seen to be correlations that will appear in each of these universes. They would seem to be distortions. They represent however almost reflections of the same action, and are viewed from different dimensional points.

If you will again recall our material on the fifth dimension, you will see how this must be the case. It will be far more simple to see such a distortive effect of one mental action as it occurs in the dream and matter universes. In all such cases the mental action occurs simultaneously in all systems in which it will have a reality; in which it can be used as a reference point in other words.

All mental actions are not used as reference points in all systems. I will not go into the reasons for this now.

This will involve as much work as we have already done on the nature of matter, and will involve us further in that discussion. I must always pick up multitudinous threads as we go on, in order to make even one point clear. The habit, when it becomes vigorous, of trying to view your system from the outside will serve you greatly.

We touched briefly on this when I spoke of objectifying. The study of the dream universe will require a journey inward, through the subconscious and beyond. It will also require a certain objectivity, in that you must try to see your own universe then from the other side. This involves definitely a change of focus, and willingness to momentarily detach the abilities of both the intellect and the intuitions from familiar camouflage reference points.
