“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We must unfortunately often deal with analogies, because they can form bridgeworks between concepts. There are units of consciousness,³ then, as there are units of matter. I do not want you to think of these units as particles. There is a basic unit of consciousness that, expressed, will not be broken down, as once it was thought that an atom was the smallest unit and could not be broken down. The basic unit of consciousness obviously is not physical. It contains within itself innately infinite properties of expansion, development, and organization; yet within itself always maintains the kernel of its own individuality. Despite whatever organizations it becomes part of, or how it mixes with other such basic units, its own identity is not annihilated.

4. Again, see the 581st session in Chapter 20 of Seth Speaks for material on EE units and postulated faster-than-light particles like the tachyon. (It’s been stated in theory, incidentally, that although tachyons themselves travel faster than light, their radiation doesn’t. This radiation, then, the carrier of all of the information we could gather about tachyons [or similar particles], would be observable by us.)

The electron is one of the wave-particles in motion adjacent to the atom’s nucleus. It would be very large when compared to Seth’s basic unit of consciousness, but because an electron can “move” from the orbit of one nucleus to that of another without traversing the space between, the electron can still furnish a crude analogy to the ability of those units of consciousness to “appear in several places at once, and without going through space.”
