“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(After the session, Jane said she had no idea offhand just what material is on those particular pages of the Seth manuscript. But she does not want to look at them until she is ready to go to work on them.)

I have said that the electrical universe is, again, a materialization of a sort of inner vitality, of which everything is composed. This vitality has a reality independently of any and all such materializations, which brings us to a most interesting point.

It should be easier now for you to understand this vitality, since we have already spoken in terms of reality existing by means of intensities. You will recall that I spoke of distances in terms of action, and that these distances occurred not in a perceivable framework of the sort with which you are familiar, but that I spoke of distance that had its reality in terms of the varying intensities within any given electrical actuality.

No electrical reality is composed of simply one impulse. Although we must speak in these terms for simplicity’s sake, every electrical impulse is of itself composed of a truly endless variety and range of intensities. In other words, each electrical impulse contains within it its own infinity of variations.

It is difficult here to do more than simply give you the statement. If you will, at your leisure, consider the makeup of your own dreams, you may partially and intuitively understand what I mean, for the distance in dreams is endless, though you may go but a little way; yet this distance as we have said, does not take up space. This comes close to evoking an understanding of distance as it occurs electrically, existing within an action.

No action basically is ever completed. This statement will later lead us into further realms. All possibilities are open to an action, an electrical action. And again, within it are an infinity of variations and depths of intensities, which give it a reality in many dimensions simultaneously. Where strong intensities are felt, then the actuality will be said to project within the field of reality which falls within the range of that particular intensity group.

Such electrical realities then, through the strength of their intensities and their particular range, are projected into some fields, but not projected into others. Any so-called travel through time involves then a traveling through such intensities. This is obviously impossible for the physical camouflaged self, but it is not impossible for the inner self, which as you know has its own electrical reality, which is again composed of particular impulses and intensities.

All depth, all dimension and all distance is therein contained within the electrical universe. There is here, as I have said, no such thing as size in your terms, or shape in your terms; but there is, again, distance, which is not absolute but varying, and which can be said to exist both backward and forward indefinitely within the infinite intensities. And all reality within any given field basically occurs within such intensities.

Once more, your own inner psychological experiences, and the inner life of every individual, can lead you to some understanding along these lines. Nor, as I said earlier, should this seem so strange. Mankind names and identifies even what he cannot see, and he divides and he separates. As I mentioned, when you look into a mirror you do not see your ego. You can never see it. You experience it directly, and so do you experience directly this sort of distance of which I speak.

What I have been telling you this evening, and my discussions in all our sessions, all my comments, have been concerned with basic and simple facts, not alien to mankind’s nature, but more intimate to him than touch. The very fact that over one hundred and thirty sessions have been devoted to such ABC’s is, in itself, adequate proof of how mankind has indeed divorced itself from the nature of its own spirit.

During our next session we will go more deeply into those pyramid gestalts of which we have spoken in the past, and perhaps consider from another viewpoint entirely the scope and nature that make up the idea of gods. Within certain frameworks these pyramid gestalts do have an electrical reality, but their existence goes beyond not the range but the nature of electrical reality. And because of the strength of their intensity, they are projected within every other field of actuality that exists.

I will now close our session. When the three of us are together upon some other occasion, then perhaps we shall see about your effects. Show me, show me, show me, Ruburt. And here you see this: Because Mark has seen what Mark has seen, our Ruburt is dubious. Why? Because Mark has seen what Mark has seen!

Mark’s abilities, while untrained, are excellent. He is naive and childlike. For this reason his abilities allow him to see what has been put before him. I would say more along these lines. However Ruburt would not take it kindly, and I am after all in his debt to some degree. My heartiest wishes to all of you. If you prefer, I will consider prolonging the session. However, we shall end it as usual if you prefer.
