“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Your world is formed out of the vast unpredictability of consciousness. From it you form your own ideas of significance and of yourself … You must stop thinking in terms of ordinary progression. It is bad enough when you worry about keeping up with the Joneses. It is something else, however, when you start worrying about which kind of self [or consciousness] is superior to another kind.”

The great communication system within the body itself is dependent, then, upon the constant inner flux and flow of these units. On one level the body’s very survival is largely determined by the units’ propensities for selectivity and significance. Also, however, the body’s physical reality is a seeming constant in a seemingly constant physical existence.

You can understand what is meant by saying that your consciousness fluctuates — for each individual is aware of various intensities and concentrations. You are more alert, or, in your terms more conscious on some occasions than others. Now the same applies to these units of consciousness — and to atoms, molecules, electrons, and other such phenomena. The world literally blinks off and on. This reality of fluctuation in no way bothers your own feeling of consistency, however. The “holes (spelled) of nonexistence” are plugged up by the process of selectivity. This process chooses significances then, again, around which experience is built, and around which “life” is felt. The very sensations of one kind of life then automatically set up barriers against other such “world-schemes” (hyphen) that do not correlate with their own.
