“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

As soon as the attempt is made to duplicate the original thought, then we find that the attempt itself strains and pulls; the impulses change minutely or to a greater degree. The point that I want to make here is that any attempt at such duplication actually forces, because of the nature of the attempt, the impulses to line up in a different pattern. When B receives the thought, it is already a new thought, bearing great resemblance to the original, but it is not the identical thought.

An individual will therefore feel more at home operating within certain frequencies, and he will feel less at home with others. The original thought is used as a pattern, therefore, for the creation of a new electrical reality, which may or may not be directed at any given receiver. It is obvious that the attempt to duplicate is present; and were it not for this attempt to duplicate, then there would be little similarity between any separate identities.

Now. The nature of the thought that is received by our sender B is determined by many factors. We shall merely consider a few of these. These include, to begin with, the original intensity of the thought as A possesses it, A’s ability to duplicate the thought as far as possible, the relative stability of the electrical thought unit as it is formed by A, the familiarity or unfamiliarity of the range of frequencies that compose the new thought to any intended receiver.

He does not interpret the thought. He interprets its meaning, and forms a new thought identity.

With our new system of communication, interruptions are shocking to Ruburt. I suggest that we end this evening’s session.

(Jane said that an interruption while she is in this new deeper state is like being doused with ice water. It is really shocking, and she does not want to go through it if it can be avoided.)
