“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Obviously the ego is a part of the whole self. Directly its experiences must be physically oriented, and yet with training it can also learn to appreciate realities that are not physical. It must not be pushed, but with the proper attitudes it can and must participate to some extent in all psychic experiences, if the overall stability is to be maintained.

These chemical excesses are a natural byproduct of consciousness that is bound up in physical materialization. The more intense the characteristic experience of reality, the greater the chemical excess that is built up. Consciousness itself, when physically oriented, burns up chemicals. The more intense the individual the hotter the fire, so to speak, and the greater the chemical excesses that must be released.

Energy is most easily utilized in this position, for one thing, and this cuts unnecessary restrictions to a minimum. There is a vast difference between ordinary dreams and projections, whether or not the projections occur from the dream threshold. Dreams are constructed and sent upon their way. As you know, they maintain an independence within their own dimension.

An almost automatic determination must be set up however if projections with conscious awareness are to be anything but rare oddities. With you both the problem is somewhat different than it might be with others. These chemical excesses are used up for one thing in your own creative work. You do this now automatically.

The expectation and the knowledge that you are part of all energy will allow you to realize that all the energy you require will be given, since you are part of it. Only your own attitude, only any man’s attitude, limits the amount of energy at his command.

Your attitudes toward what is possible determines what is possible for you in very definite terms. Your attitudes create possibilities and impossibilities. Your attitude toward money creates your bank account. I am not speaking of your personally, alone. These laws apply to all. What you expect you create, and that is the beginning and end of it, whether you are speaking of psychic matters or physical matters.

Until you learn this you learn little, and until you learn this you do not know what it means to be practical. If you did not think projection was possible for you, you would never achieve a projection. You create your reality, and no one else can create it for you.

These projections take a strong propelling force, for you are literally traveling from one dimension or reality to another. And yet you will retain awareness. All of this evening I have been speaking of projections in which awareness is retained, and not of more frequent projections which are usually forgotten.
