“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A survival personality in many respects is psychologically much different from the individual that he was. The ego is now under the control of what may be loosely called the inner self. When communications take place between a survival personality and a personality who exists within the physical system, then this involves a reshuffling, again, on the part of the survival personality, where the ego is momentarily given greater reign.

(Seth began talking about these points in the very early sessions. By the 15th session he was explaining Jane’s role as a translator for him, putting concepts into words, etc. See Volume 1.)

This reassembled ego then attempts to perceive these concepts in terms of sense perceptions, which are sent as communications to the physical individual at the other end. Sometimes the communications are made directly, though they must be sifted through the subconscious of the physical individual. When the physical individual is trained along these lines however, he helps in this process, and a psychological framework, like a bridge, is erected that serves to connect the two personalities.

This connecting psychological framework does some of the translating for me, that a reassembled ego would do for me. It delivers information to Ruburt in a way which he can understand. Occasionally I do communicate without this psychological framework, as when I impress him directly, telepathically, with a concept.

When he receives data in the form of images, the psychological framework is operating. On my end this framework projects imagery, and with my direction it uses Ruburt’s own personal associations to direct his impressions toward the correct point. Then when we are successful I insert the correct data.

(“White paper with small implied border. A July date. A note, short, that does not take up all the available space.” This is the data I asked Seth to connect with the envelope object. His answer was that a note was sent, presumably to our neighbor across the hall, Leonard Yaudes, concerning the object. Jane and I do not know if this is so, and probably will not ask Leonard; he does not know of these sessions.
