“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

All consciousness exists first and primarily in electromagnetic terms, although consciousness may project itself into many various forms. It is never completely imprisoned within those forms however. You see, I have somewhat explained this to you. (Smile.) As physical beings your perception, your physical perception, is slowed down to a necessary but very extensive degree.

The span of a whole man’s lifetime is no more than a moment point. The ego is the portion of you equipped to explore and experience this moment point in depth. (Smile.) Value fulfillment demands this slowing down of perception. This is most difficult to explain. Consider using psychological time. You have experiences within a few physical moments of physical time, experiences that are entirely independent of your time structure.

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.
