“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The ego can perceive only certain portions of any given moment point or present instant, and it sees the moment point indeed as if it were one of a series of lights that approaches the ego from one side, and passes him by on the other side. The ego perceives this moment point, then, very much as if it were a flat cardboard-like object which comes, is flashed before him, and disappears.

Now. These other selves are more freewheeling. There are indeed limitations inherent within their structure, but in all cases any given identity is more than the dimension in which it finds itself. Its limitations may be great, but the limitations are set not by the identity’s nature but by the dimension in which it exists.

I am indeed taking it very easy this evening, to break you in again, so to speak.

The vacation has done you both good however, and your energies have indeed replenished themselves. I have some slight trouble with Ruburt when sessions are not regular. However this effect is fleeting, and as always I bear with such things in my usual manner.

Other portions of self one are to some extent aware of these other dimensions. Now you see where we are heading. For now consider what we shall call self A. And we shall say that he is the physical self in the physical universe. He is composed of physical matter, he is composed of psychological matter, a portion of this latter being ego. From your own work you realize however that this individual, or self A, is indeed more than physical matter, even while he exists within the physical dimension.

In the dreaming state and in other states of consciousness, he can indeed to some degree become aware of perceptions which will be neglected by the ego alone. In other words, psychologically there is only one portion of self A that is limited in its perceptions to the physical dimension, and that is the ego.

My information will indeed be specific enough, but there are certain human interrelationships that he will more precisely perceive, for they have no particular meaning for me.

You were dealing, indeed, with a legitimate perception into a dimension outside of the ones with which you are familiar, and with a distortion of a sort on your part, as once again you attempted to translate inner data into a form that could be perceived by the physical senses.
