“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Consciousness cannot be separated from mobility. It is true that you focus within the physical system mainly, yet the inner self is highly mobile and embarks simultaneously upon a variety of projections. The closest example in your experience of this mobility is the dream situation.

I mention such possibilities because such situations have not been dreamed of, and they should be taken into consideration. Such experiences without drugs could happen not at all. The alarmed personality would quickly return. In the case of drugs however the chemical framework might delay such a return until it was too late.

Now in the drug situation the state of consciousness desired is brought about by altering chemical properties. Consciousness, travelling, cannot automatically manipulate the physical station. Consciousness must stay out, you see, until the chemical situation has changed.

This is somewhat like drugging a child about to be born as a side effect of drugging the mother to make the birth easier, you see. Without drugs, the psychedelic experience will not occur unless circumstances are excellent from all aspects. There is little danger involved, as a rule. The chemical changes are automatically byproducts of the mobility of consciousness in such situations.
