“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

These coordinates are simply points where other fields of reality come into contact. Each exists to some extent where the other is, and yet the camouflage structures make it necessary for those within any given system to recognize the certain characteristics, only, of the one in which focus is to be maintained.

At physical death, in your terms, the personality structure is able to approach certain coordinates, to perceive them, and to change focus from one system to another. When this occurs the primary physical construction, the camouflage material, loses its power. The individual would seem to disappear with no trace remaining.

For example (pause, eyes closed; one of a series along in here), I was about to explain by telling you that these image traces are not, of course, visible physically, but latent. I believe your word latent suggests something that has not yet shown itself, however, and the particular kind of ghost image to which I am referring has instead already been manifested physically.

There is a corresponding image, held always within the inner consciousness of those who pass out of your system. (Long pause. One of several here.) This is indelible, but not always immediately available for reference. It forms a part of the whole inner self. We would prefer that you not think of any given entire entity in terms of a physical structure, though we have ourselves used the term structure to make explanations simpler, and will probably do so again.

Consciously, you are able to focus within, understand, and gain development in, one field of reality at a time. (Smile.)

These points, these coordinates, are all about you and impinge upon your physical form and your universe constantly, but you cannot understand nor perceive them. Consciously you work with what you call a one-reality field psychological structure. Other portions of your entire entity are not so limited.

This is simplified. Consciously you deal with those problems of one given physical life. Consciously you are not aware of what you call reincarnations, though these occur within your own system. Now these are not separate existences at all. They only appear so to you. Your earth identity (smile) in singular terms, is one existence. When you sleep at night and awaken, you do not suppose yourself a new personality, or imagine that you have died during the night. This is what you do when you imagine that you have several existences as different people.

So while you operate in a one-reality field psychological structure, you do not on a conscious level even perceive its entire reality, nor your place in it. The word progression is a poor one, and again however I must use it. (Pause; smile.) Seth’s material on action will help you here.

Ruburt spoke before the session of handling aggression. Consciously you have the emotions of one personality to contend with and to direct constructively. One set of responsibilities and potentials. At other levels you have the problems, potentials and responsibilities of many to contend with in the same manner.

(10:25. Jane sat quietly for a moment, then jumped and came out of trance. Her voice had been the same throughout, and almost fast at times. She said she knew she was having trouble at the one slow passage, above. She was making an effort to get something through by using words that were correctly suggestible. It was very difficult, even though both sides were doing what they were supposed to.

I am able to change them as action while retaining the knowledge that I am that which changes, and find my stability in change. You must hold the action back for perceptive purposes. You do not really hold it back, but your one-reality field psychological structure only experiences in tiny segments.

(10:50. Jane left trance easily. She had been tired this evening but the session had been a good one.)
