“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Regardless of the field of reality from which the data is received, to a large extent the mechanisms are the same. It is only because so-called mediumship is more unusual than simple perception that it appears so striking. Ruburt, reading from a book, would still have to receive and translate that information without knowing the endless manipulations necessary. The same sort of inner calculations would have been involved by the author of the book.

Therefore you accept them for they make sense to the physical mechanism. The inner self has the knowledge behind these physical perceptions. The brain is responsible for these physical symbols. The mind has no need of them, but passes the information to the brain, who then interprets it.

Physically speaking now, there are mechanisms that interpret physical events. The scientist’s field of inquiry involves these. The methods by which emotions, concepts, and energy are projected out from the individual to form the physical environment and events, mainly occur in nonphysical terms, but there are nervous system connections that aid in this projection.

You remember this from our material on action and the personality. The ego therefore is pleased when information is proven correct. (Long pause.) If the nature of perception were clearly understood then the nature of reality as you know it would also be understood much more clearly. Only half the process of perception, so-called, is even considered, however. Only half of the circle is known. The entire circle consists of those projections outward that form events, as well as the mechanisms by which the events are then physically perceived.
