“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The immediate physical environment of your own apartment, for example, is the result of continual inner processes with which you are not acquainted. The existence, maintenance, and appearance of that environment depends upon inner manipulations and automatic transfers that are as natural and as necessary to your existence physically, as breath.

The physical with its multitudinous and astonishing complexity, merely hints at the full nature of inner reality however, for all of inner reality cannot be translated in physical terms. Your own physical environment is constantly tended by you automatically. It constantly reflects in its own way the nature of your inner environment. Again, this is far from symbolic. Every least alteration of psychic and emotional existence immediately alters the nature of the physical environment through instant interaction.

Consciousness or action forms all realities. What is not simply represents a possibility which consciousness may bring to life. (Long pause.) Consciousness then formed out of itself a new dimension which was the physical one. The formation, the explosion, of energy, shattered consciousness into an infinity of parts, each with all the abilities in here within consciousness itself.

From itself, therefore, and of itself, consciousness gave birth to its new dimension of experience, and then experienced what it had created, further extending itself and in turn bringing forth further possibilities of development.

Consciousness therefore continually creates and maintains itself, and this includes the physical materialization, the properties of the dimension, and yet basically there is no difference between the creator in these terms and the created. Nor between inner reality, which forms physical matter, and physical objects themselves, for the atoms which are manipulated to form objects are themselves a portion of consciousness, and alive in those terms. They respond to emotional and psychic directives as the physical body responds to light.

They are still but a portion of prime identity, and without them, prime identity could not know itself nor act upon itself nor develop its own abilities or potentials.

Now in the same way that consciousness originated the physical dimension, you as portions of consciousness continue to maintain and create it anew. Your source of energy is that first creation, in which consciousness focused, where before it had not. You also then know and develop yourselves through your own creations, and you automatically create and maintain your physical environment in the same manner that you breathe. Your physical image and your physical environment are both materialized extensions of your inner selves.

This is constant creation. The initial creation provided the energy, the dimension, of possibility itself, but every particle of consciousness will always attempt to express itself within as many possibilities as possible. The inner self therefore creates the physical body and the land upon which it moves.

We will end the session but continue this material on Wednesday. My heartiest wishes to you both. Bear in mind also that as individuals, you are creating new dimensions through which consciousness can know itself, both in physical experience and within other systems. As a part of consciousness other systems are not closed to you, but as physical organisms other systems are closed to you.
