“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You think of the past as done with and completed, but on a subconscious basis you travel through the past. The past therefore becomes present. You know that precognition is a fact. The steady line of time does not exist. Inversion in terms of value interwound upon value, energy compressed, contained, working upon itself, contained but with momentum—this comes much closer to reality.

We will try here to give you an example. Take for example then the house in which Ruburt spent his childhood. Now as you know, that was never one definite unchanging object. That house was a conglomeration of atoms and molecules, perceived generally as a house, but perceived specifically by everyone who saw it as a slightly different house. For each observer quite literally created from his own subconscious energy an approximation of a house, a general shape then perceived as a house, and further embellished by personal judgments.

These psychological structures obviously act as stabilizing platforms, so to speak, from which energy can view itself. The psychological frameworks simply are various organizational structures that are equipped to perceive reality discriminately.

They are equipped to focus along particular directions. This material will be extremely interesting when we come to it. It is extremely difficult for a psychological structure to view itself, for in order to do so it must lift itself from the limitations and abilities of its own nature. In many realities such scrutiny is simply impossible, while the structure operates in a given fashion.

Gradually psychological structures are able to focus upon vaster areas, and in order to achieve proficiency in this manner you do indeed begin to build up layered selves that have been independent identities. These varying perceptive abilities organize so that their perceptive powers are pooled in a gestalt that eventually forms a new identity, a more complicated psychological structure that is capable of perceiving larger areas of reality.

Even within a given system however all individuals are not at the same point. Now, in our sessions I am sure that by now you are at least to some extent aware of what would seem to be something quite strange: the emergence of a self that observes the self of which you have been ordinarily aware; a self with a slightly different time system, a slightly different viewpoint of reality, a self with greater control over the physical material that composes your physical image, a self with some quite effective control over your personal future.
