“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, in the past when you said the word I, this I was the ego I, and you identified the whole self with the ego. Later you learned to distinguish between the ego and the subconscious. All of this simply means that you became aware of larger portions of the whole personality, and were consciously able to use these abilities, conscious and subconscious being, of course, artificial terms.

Now when you use the word I, more and more, this is the portion of the self of which I spoke in our last session. You are aware of the ego and able to see yourself as something more than the ego is. This is the I that you have been using in the pendulum sessions, that questions both the ego and subconscious. These are all portions of the self, however; the difference is functional.

This self can give directions to both the ego and the subconscious and can instruct the subconscious to speed up healing processes. Now you address this I automatically and identify it in with your own mind as a sort of supraconsciousness. You are only familiar with a small part of it, however. Here again, the division is arbitrary.
