“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

New paragraph. In class last evening Ruburt “picked up” messages that seemed to be too slow for his neurological structure. He was convinced that it would take many hours of your time in order to translate perhaps a simple clear paragraph of what he was receiving. He experienced some strain, feeling that each vowel and syllable was so drawn out, in your terms of time, that he must either slow down his own neurological workings to try to make some suitable adjustments. He chose the latter. Messages, therefore, perceptions, “came through” at one speed, so to speak, and he managed to receive them while translating them into a more comfortable, neurologically familiar speed.

What he was sensing, however, was an entirely different kind of reality. He was beginning to recognize another synapse [neuronal] pattern not “native”; he was familiarizing himself with perceptions at a different set of coordinate points. Such activity automatically alters the nature of time in your experience, and is indicative of intersections of your consciousness with another kind of consciousness. That particular type of consciousness operates “at different speeds” than your own. Biologically, your own physical structures are quite able to operate at those same speeds, though as a species you have disciplined yourselves to a different kind of neurological reaction. By altering such neurological prejudice,¹⁰ however, you can indeed learn to become aware of other realities that coincide with yours. Period.

As the evening passed Jane told class that she’d keep Seth’s “true reality rhythm-speed” to her left and, she hoped, would speak an understandable translation of it, speeded up for our cognition, to her right. “But I keep getting pulled back into a more true expression of Seth’s reality….” She could manage only a few words at a time from the Seth we were used to.

Now: Electrons themselves operate at different “speeds.” The structure of the atom that you recognize, and its activity, is in larger terms one probable version of an atom.¹¹ Your consciousness, as it is allied with the flesh, follows the activity of atoms as far as it is reflected in your system of reality.

(Jane’s expressions of long sound and her sensations of massiveness are of course directly related to the multidimensional neurological activity, the “sidepools” of consciousness, that she described in Appendix 4 of Volume 1. Seth also mentioned neurological pulses and/or speeds in various sessions in Volume 1. In the opening delivery for Session 686, for example, see his information on our species’ selection of one “official” series of neurological pulses for physical reality, and, at 12:19 A.M., his remarks on prejudiced perception. Appendix 5 for the same session contains more of Jane’s own material on neurological speeds.

Interestingly enough, several very distant quasars have been linked to certain observed faster-than-light effects, thus contradicting current physical theory that nothing can exceed the speed of light. [...]
