“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I mentioned that it would be interesting to get from Seth sometime information about the counterpart—families of consciousness concepts as pertaining to other than human creatures. Seth hasn’t gone into the ideas as related to insects, say, or birds or the animals—or viruses or bacteria, for that matter—at all, and I’m sure there is a wealth of fascinating information there. I came up with the question the other day, also, because I’m working with his counterpart material for Section 6 in Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.)

The varieties of consciousness—the inner “psychological particles,” the psychic equivalent, say, of the atom or molecule, or proton, neutron or quark—these nonphysical, charmed, strange forms of consciousness that make experience go up or down (all with amusement), and around and around, are never of course dealt with.

The physical world is dependent upon the relationship of everything from electrons to molecules, to mountains and oceans, from cultural organizations to private dreams, and in the scheme of reality these are all interwoven with exquisite order, spontaneity, and a logic beyond any with which you are familiar.

The counterpart idea is merely a small attempt to hint at that interrelationship—an interrelationship of course that includes all species and forms of life. Ruburt’s idea of the four-fronted self is also an attempt to hint at that complexity in human terms.

You do not simply have, say, one past self, or one future self, but many— for your consciousness shoots out, so to speak, in all directions “faster than the speed of light.”

The consciousness of all species interact in that fashion also, as do of course the consciousnesses within atoms. Such communication takes place constantly, and for men and animals it is particularly apt to in the dream state. The organization of the world would not exist otherwise, in any terms. Basically, then, your consciousness and your perceptions operate faster than light. For that matter, this of course applies to many important communication systems within the body itself, and to the constant alteration of cellular tissue and genetic material that would never be perceived through physical means.
