“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Relying upon such external perceptions therefore, communication between members of various systems would be relatively impossible. You might not perceive each other to begin with, or realize that there is anything to be perceived. Such contact therefore would always take place beneath so-called normal perception, and even then you would have to translate this inner perception, as you do any into terms you could understand as physical creatures.

Verbalization is not a basic method of communication for in quotes “higher” forms of consciousness, nor is it for lower forms of consciousness. It is only at your particular intermediate state that verbalization as such is so important. It is a main basis for your species. Because of its importance at your particular stage it is an excellent method for our purposes. In many other systems of reality it is never adopted, for it is in many ways restrictive.

In some systems colors are used as a prime method of communication. They are sent out telepathically, each gradation of such variety that you cannot now imagine it. These intricate color communications follow the almost endless emotional shadings possible. It is difficult you see to verbalize this concept. They have to begin with more spectrums than those with which you are familiar. They live in an entirely different sense universe.

These are not to be thought of as colored pictures however, for neither do they use that kind of imagery, and yet a high degree of preciseness is communicated. In your terms there would be, in quotes, “words” for all kinds of subtle emotional states for which you have no words.

Now were I to communicate with someone in that system, I would have to affect their sense mechanisms, and therefore the material would be delivered in a way, again, that would seem to distort it, and yet without the method it could not be given.

They are the root assumptions from which all communications spring. (Long pause.) The trouble is, again, that in trying to give them to you certain alterations are necessary. Knowing them at this point will not help your development. I wanted to mention them in our record however for later reference.
