“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I see plants I have planted long ago; flourishing and beautiful, and can be used for decorating or repotted. I think that here I had a false awakening and told Rob about the beautiful plants. I also thought they were symbolic of the work put into my books. It is possible that this was preceded by a levitation dream.

(The false awakening: I tell Rob about the plants, and perhaps make a note to record the dream. “Then I realize this is a false awakening, and that I should be able to project. I am sitting in the bathroom when I realize this. I try to levitate or project. I hold my legs out and my feet feel strange: There is an odd sensation, a shifting of some kind. Then I really project. There is an experience of seeing many mirrors, through which I travel. The mirrors are not solid. Feeling of motion, and the mirror scenes also move.”

(I was in a landscape with two women. We were leaders of some kind. Running over the hills, I leap from ground to a high ledge. I am not satisfied with the leap, so move “backward through the air” to my original spot, and do the whole thing over. Then I have another false awakening in which I tell Rob about the dream and levitation.

(Jane’s notes concerning the dream: The actual separation from physical body is the most vivid experience of the whole sequence—if separation is what it was. This is the first time I definitely realized I had a false awakening, then consciously tried to project from it. I certainly seemed to do so.

First, some general comments. You are both learning rather quickly. Ruburt’s projection from the dream state, through a false awakening, was indeed legitimate. He gave himself no suggestion beforehand, yet the overall suggestions that he has given himself stood him in good stead.

If you want to record any given experience in its clearest form, then you should train yourself to wake up immediately afterward. Otherwise later ordinary dreams will be remembered falsely as being part of the projection experience.
