“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Each channel will represent a portion of the self, each one existing in a different dimension, and yet all part of the whole self, or the whole tape. You can see that it would be highly ridiculous to say that the material on your Mono One was any more or any less valid than your material on Mono Two. Mono One and Mono Two could be compared then to self one and two; self one and two here, however, in the context of the ego as self one and the subconscious as you know it as self two. We are not using Dunne’s terms here, in other words.

The time sequence varies also as you have seen. That is, events are experienced in different sequences. However past, present and future has reality only to the ego. Now there is some bleed-through. The ego is certainly aware to some extent of the subconscious. The subconscious is certainly aware of the ego. The portion of the self, or rather the portions of the self, that experience action in terms of what the ego would term probability, is further divorced from the ego, however, and this probability reality appears to the ego very rarely, and only very occasionally.

When this does happen it usually occurs as a bleed-through from the subconscious from the dream state, for the subconscious is somewhat acquainted with probabilities, and to some degree experiences these in a problem-solving manner. It views various probabilities with the purposes of the ego in mind, and therefore aids the ego in its decisions as to which probable events it should choose for its own experience.

Now. It should be obvious that the psychological framework must be different when the time system of experience is different. You can see easily for yourself the individual psychological variations that exist simply between the ego and the subconscious, but these portions of the self are very close. Other portions of the self, that deal in what you would call probable realities, are very different in their psychological makeup.

The identity, the basic identity, of these portions of the self, are carried by what you could compare to the subconscious that you know. This is difficult, but listen: in these portions of the self it is the subconscious that carries the burden of identity, and it is the ego whose experiences are of a dreamlike, plastic nature. I use these terms to make the point clear. Do not let them confuse you. These portions of the self would seem topsy-turvy to you for this reason.

Now, Ruburt’s subconscious simply got in our way at last evening’s session. Now and then it is to be expected, but I regret the particular circumstances deeply. He was subconsciously but never consciously aware that next month marked the time of his grandfather’s death, and subconsciously he knew his grandfather’s age at death.

When I gave my material it was meant to be reassuring. This was my intent. But when I tried to give information regarding Ruburt, the subconscious activity interrupted. We had his identification with his grandfather momentarily, and the subsequent distortion.
