“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We are all existing in many dimensions at once. The primary difference between us is that I am aware of my existence in many dimensions, and you are not aware of yours. We form a new dimension in our sessions. I give voice to ideas that are known to various levels of your personalities, yet I am not at the level of your personalities.

Your own thoughts have a reality that you do not understand, and their own kind of form, or psychic content, and this content exists not as pure energy, but as energy with form and shape. And when it is perceived by you, then it has bulk. The bulk is the result of your own perception. The bulk, or mass, is perceived whether or not the ideas have ever been materialized as physical matter. Whenever you come in contact with a particular idea form, and this will only happen in projections, then you will automatically perceive that form with bulk or mass.

You can hear the chair as a musical note in a trance state, for example, or with the use of drugs. You are still dealing in terms of your senses, however. You are seeing—or perceiving, rather—separately, the various components that are usually organized to form the solid object.

With the full use of the inner senses, however, it is theoretically possible to perceive all the shapes and forms that have ever been, or will ever be, adopted by the atoms and molecules that compose the particular chair. This kind of experience is beyond the power of drugs. It is true to say that in one sense both you and Ruburt are a part of the table and the chair, and the room in which they sit.

You organize yourselves out of other matter, you see. The difference is a psychic one, and not a physical one as it appears. The inner identity extends itself over larger and larger groups of energy forms, and acts as an overall psychic pattern. But all is connected.

Projection then is aggression. The self thrusts forward into new dimensions, and this is creative. Painting a picture is aggressive. You are thrusting energy into new forms. All this you see implies a destruction, but only in your limited terms. Each projection, for example, is the death, in one way, of the limited self that stood earlier.
