“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You are operating at a rather high level of awareness, and you are using inner senses. These enable you to perceive an added depth or dimension, and this is responsible for the increased sense of vividness, and also for the sense of exhilaration that sometimes occurs within this particular sort of dream.

When this occurs you will be able to use your normal abilities in addition to other abilities used while in the dream state itself. You will be certain of your identity. You will realize that your physical self is sleeping, or in a dream state, and that the inner self is fully awake. Now this represents a definite increase in the scope of consciousness, and a considerable expansion over the usual limitations set by you upon the self.

Electromagnetic reality belongs to the inner self. It is not a property that belongs to physical matter, although it does appear in physical terms. (Pause.) The second and third projection forms have electromagnetic realities. (Pause.) We are going slow here to get this material through clearly.

In physical existence a certain portion of the inner self’s electromagnetic properties are used by the physical structure of the body. Subtle changes occur in the body when the inner self projects. This projection is not dependent upon physical life—that is, the survival of the human personality also is then not dependent upon physical survival, nor need it be supported by physical life. The electromagnetic properties simply revert to their original source with the inner self, and are no longer utilized in the construction of a corporeal image.

You are exploring the inner contents of a moment, delving into its experience. Now this is what the ego does you see within a lifetime, only to a greater degree. In projections, and in your dreams, your perceptions to some extent enable you to leap out of the ego’s time limitations. The physical body is indeed the ego’s vehicle. You do not need it, you see, for projections.
