“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now words belong to your particular time system. Without it, they are not needed. Therefore communication is dependent upon your time system. The inner self however is not so limited, as you know, and inner communications continue always beneath words. Word structures and language itself bears a unique mathematical precision. The placement of emphasis, the vowels and consonants, the length of time to utter them, all of these issues are intimately connected with your own nervous systems, and with the intervals inherent within your time system, between thought and action.

There are unities, barely contemplated, then, between language, exterior communication, the physical nervous system, and time, or your idea of it. These merge so beautifully that they all serve to form a seemingly perfect picture of physical reality. The camouflage would not be effective were it less perfect. (Pause.)

You are beginning to perceive the holes in the camouflage, for I have pointed them out to you. They are doorways into inner realities, and other realities, as are these sessions. Those who have survived physical death in your terms, must use words in their communications, for you do not understand wordless communications. They themselves are far freer, however.

We should perhaps differentiate between thoughtwords and speech, or spoken words. Thoughtwords are used by many for some interval. I am speaking of those who have survived death in your terms. They do not need the spoken word. Even thought communication however need not necessarily follow the form of words. There can be thought without words (smile),in other words.

Several other methods of communication occur. They do not spring from nowhere. You use them beneath conscious level to some degree now. They grow into prominence. Images are widely used, but these images would be fourth-dimensional to your way of thinking. They are far from flat. They have a reality, and these are, what you have read, referred to as thoughtforms.
