“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

All limitations, basically, are self-adopted. They may be necessary at one time or another, but they can never be primary realities. Limitations, in other words, are illusion. You have to deal with them only because you have created them. Your exterior circumstances are the materializations of inner climate.

Each painting that you create represents the death of the self that you were before you created it. The changing self forever dies in this manner, and yet only this symbolic death insures psychic survival. There is no basic moral problem then when you consider the true nature of aggression, for it is highly creative, and without destruction there would be no existence. These are two faces of the same coin.

Now, you see, when you paint a picture you use your physical body as a tool to create your inner idea. When you create physical matter you are not aware of doing so, but you affect energy directly in such an execution, your own attention being focused primarily in the physical system.

You can only do so much in your painting. You can only create it as a reality in so many dimensions. You cannot appreciate, for that matter, all the systems of reality in which the painting does have reality. This is a very simple analogy: However, in some aspects a projection to another system could be likened to a situation in which you entered the landscape of one of your own paintings.
