“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You can experience the illusion, but when you experience the illusion as an illusion, you no longer experience it. You are running ahead of yourself.

([Gene]: “But there’s nowhere to go.”)

You do not know it now. When that point is reached, you will be able, if you prefer, to experience any “Reality-Illusion" at your will, but the self who experiences these “reality-illusions" will know itself as reality. There is no place for it to go, because it is the only reality and will create its own environment.

([Gene]: “But that is a discussion of the me here and now.”)

You must still be able to experience any one of these illusions. Knowing they are illusory with full knowledge of their nature and still know that the basic reality is yourself. There is no place to go, because you are the place, in those terms, and all places. But the joke is relevant. The most important thing I have said to you this evening is that the joke is relevant.

([Gene]: “But I can’t leave the system because I am in all systems simultaneously.”)

([Gene]: “Yes indeed. We’re all Buddhas, but we won’t admit it.”)

But the idea of self-betrayal can lead to distortions.

([Gene]: “But these distortions are part of the game that Shiva plays with yourself [me] and conversely.”

([Gene]: “But there aren’t any steps, are there?”)

These are tender children we lay to rest. We should mourn for them though they be but (blank space, missing word?) We must feel for them though they be cow dung.

([Gene]: “To do that is to have opened an eye and to see that there is but one short step to take.”)

You are indeed now playing a game with yourself, but it is not relevant, and it may be irrelevant. But you had better play it reverently.

There is a holy irreverence and a flighty irreverence. You are playing a game. They are both one. But you had better be certain that you know this thoroughly. Now I suggest you rest.
