“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

They are expressed yet they are repressed from, or they are kept from, active complete physical construction by the very act of artistic creation. There is a division of self involved.

A tree reflected in the water is still the same tree, and unchanged as the mental act is unchanged. As the reflection of the tree, however, gives a waving and distorted appearance, so as the idea is projected into another field it also is seen in a distorted fashion.

The distorted reflection of the tree in no way changes the actual tree. The distortions that occur as a mental act appears in another field in no way changes the mental act.

Yet these projections or reflections do not alter the fact, or change the basic nature of the so-called original mental act, and it remains as untouched by its own reflections as does the stationary tree remain independent from its reflections in the water.

I wanted to give you this material because it is basic for any comprehension of mental acts as they occur in the dream universe and the universe of matter. There will also be additional information concerning the concept of time, as the experience of time is strongly connected with the motion of mental acts, as they are projected outward from their center into the fields of various camouflage systems.
