“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Man is himself a particular system or unit of action within other systems of action, and he is himself composed of other units of action. This unity and interdependence is in itself responsible for that interplay of mental and psychic action which results in the individual consciousness, that is, with the ego.

We have discussed this before but it should not be forgotten in any of the discussions. The urge and drive toward value fulfillment provides the spark for the initiation of any system or unit. Increased consciousness and awareness of itself, through the manipulation and materialization of its own energy into more complicated camouflage patterns, is another characteristic of a system or unit.

(While this sensation attained some duration, I began to experience my feeling of existing upon two levels again. I haven’t had this one lately, however. This was also definite and prolonged. First, my middle body felt depressed [or nonexistent] upon the bed. I then became aware that my left arm and hand felt itself to be some inches higher than my right arm and hand. Yet beneath both limbs I felt the presence of the bed. It appeared that the point of transition between the two levels existed somewhere within, or beneath, my body, but I was not aware of it consciously. While I knew the bed lay beneath either arm, note that I was not aware of the bed beneath my lower legs. Good duration for both effects.)
