“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Any such divisions are of course arbitrary to begin with. Practically speaking a self can be defined as an energy gestalt whose perceptions are organized under the auspices of apparent identity. The more of reality that is perceived the larger the dimensions of the self, or identity.

Now I mean this literally. Reality is on the one hand the product of perception. On the other hand that which is, is always present as the basis for any perception. That which is perceives itself, you see. The unitary self is basically an illusions and yet individuality is no illusion.

Until this is realized your psychology will raise more questions than it answers. The basis for all experience is depth perception, and value fulfillment. The self organizes data basically in a manner that psychology has not found. The organization of such data is not simply the result of preadulthood tendencies, inclinations or experience. Such tendencies are highly colored by previous existences, by past lives, and this prehistory, existing as the electromagnetic property of the whole self, is the blueprint which is followed by the structure of the chromosomes.
