“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Since this period was to some degree at least free of camouflage, from it communication can be received dealing with the entity’s knowledge of itself, and of uncamouflaged reality. From this undifferentiated gap of experience between camouflage existences, valuable information may be received dealing with the reality which exists behind, and independent of, matter.

Communications that give valid information concerning the reality beneath the camouflage world must be attained through one of the separating layers between lives.

[...] And because the focus brings it outside of camouflage time and space, it is also able to project itself into what you call the future.

Without dreams the outer camouflaged self would lose all touch with inner realities, or would be in danger of thus denying its own heritage; and therefore the physical body is so constructed that excess chemicals must be discharged and transformed into human action, or the physical mechanism would be clogged with poisons.

[...] The inner self perceives realities that it observes in many directions, being free from the intense focus within limited directions of camouflage existence.

The outer senses as you know are themselves camouflage constructions, specific tools formed for a specific reason to manipulate camouflage reality. [...]

I would like here to discuss a fact about which we have spoken briefly in the past; that is, that the inner world cannot be examined with the outer senses, that indeed the main purpose of the outer senses is the interpretation of the outer or camouflage existence.

[...] The intellect, again, was also and is a means by which the inner self relates itself to the camouflage physical universe which it has itself constructed.

[...] In order to examine the reality of dreams it is necessary to change the focus of the inner self to those directions in which the inner self moves, when the ego does not limit its scope to camouflage reality only.

[...] You will of course ask me the source of the source, and I will say again that only within the framework of your intense but limited camouflage universe does such a question have meaning or validity.

[...] The intellect must deal and interpret the realities of camouflage existence, this being its purpose.

[...] I regret, and deeply, that we must still deal with concepts in terms of words strung out one before the other, for this method serves to reinforce your idea of continuity, cause and effect, past and present, and all such camouflages that I am completely determined to put into proper place.

[...] The entity then projects a personality within that plane of existence, equipping it with whatever camouflage senses, mechanisms, and protections that are necessary for survival on that plane.

And since you are not, you do not have the peculiar sets of camouflage perceptors necessary to experience existence within them. [...] You simply do not have the camouflage equipment to perceive them.

[...] Only by escaping momentarily from camouflage data can any larger concept be obtained.

[...] In other words, on an unconscious level you here manipulate in another plane of existence entirely, one in which your conscious camouflage ego may not enter.

It is not part of the particular camouflage necessities on that plane. [...]

[...] The smallest imaginable particle gives evidence of that basic unity of energy adopting form, materializing the camouflage pattern necessary for efficient manipulation within your universe, that is composed of diverse but interwoven fields of apparent, semi-apparent, or unapparent activities and correlations. [...]

[...] And its survival is obviously a necessity for existences within the physical field, if it is to deal effectively with camouflage reality.

You can see that in that fifth-dimensional existence there can be no constants as far as reference points are concerned, since by the very nature of the dimension, camouflages are adopted to fit numberless other dimensions as the structure itself continually changes.

As you know, camouflage elements are formed from the vital energy, which itself forms of itself all dimensions and all realities. It exists within all camouflage, since the camouflage itself is merely the form that is adopted. [...]

The whole self as you know has its existence in uncamouflaged energy, and is therefore capable of the assimilation of knowledge in so far as it can, if it chooses, be basically unaffiliated to any one camouflage dimension or perspective. In actual practice this takes a supreme development, but even for general purposes the inner self retains a freedom from camouflage perspectives, and is aware in varying degrees of other perspectives, and of its existence outside of them.

[...] The dream world is more closely connected with uncamouflaged experience in the spacious present, but it still is in a camouflage perspective, dealing with recognizable projections of material reality.

In all these cases the available projections are interpreted according to the set conceptions of those in whose dimension they appear, and the data can only be interpreted according to the particular camouflage patterns which are inherent for existence within a given dimension.

I would like to speak this evening further along the lines of camouflage. Matter is as you know camouflage, the outwardness of energy. [...]

[...] It is only within your camouflage perspective that this remark appears illogical, but this does not mean that you still cannot grasp some of its meaning, using your own inner experience.

[...] I have mentioned before that beneath camouflage the fifth dimension is truly transparent. [...]

[...] This involves definitely a change of focus, and willingness to momentarily detach the abilities of both the intellect and the intuitions from familiar camouflage reference points.

The action is only apparent or visible in a particular field when it adopts the camouflage coloration of the field in question. [...] The camouflage distortion is like the effect that water reflections have upon the image that falls across the water.

[...] The appearance of this time is caused by the apparent changes or transformations of the action as it enters any given camouflage field.

[...] There will also be additional information concerning the concept of time, as the experience of time is strongly connected with the motion of mental acts, as they are projected outward from their center into the fields of various camouflage systems.

It is the effect of the camouflage which is responsible for the experience of time as you think of it.

The point that I wanted to make is that in all instances energy, individualized energy, materializes itself on any, or within any, field through mental enclosures; which are of themselves not formed of any camouflage, but represent entry points formed of pure energy for its entrance and eventual manipulation within a given field.

[...] Camouflage initiative is another such characteristic. Within the limitations set by itself, a system may nevertheless, from the opportunities available to it, vary its camouflage patterns.

A system may say that within its limitations there is room for still further transformation of energy into still more various camouflage forms. It may be generally said, but only generally, that the most advantageous system is that system which has great diversity of camouflage patterns, in that energy, always individualized, is then given expression within the system in different materializations, which then allow for further individualization to the benefit of the whole system.

[...] Individualized, aware energy is the basis for their camouflage frameworks. [...]

[...] Availability of energy and energy transformation into the particular camouflage necessities of the system are other properties.

[...] It is not as involved with camouflage constructions as your own universe, and its actions are somewhat limited within its own framework.

[...] As no action is meaningless, so the dream universe and the physical universe constantly replenish each other, and mental actions are performed in both universes, being camouflage acting symbols for inner action.

[...] In dreams, when the self is somewhat free from camouflage, perhaps it is possible for the self then to travel spontaneously into such fields of actuality; but since they are as bizarre to the self as is the dream world itself, then there is no way, usually, for the sleeper to distinguish between the universe of dreams or other actualities.

[...] Any personalities, any entities, that do enter your physical plane must use some camouflage material if they are to be physically perceived. [...]

[...] Semidarkness merely aids in dissociation and concentration, and the lessening of camouflage data is helpful.

The brain, because of its purpose and its close connection to camouflage manipulation, does not have a primary existence within the electrical universe, although it has a secondary existence within it because of its connection to the purely electrical mind.

[...] The camouflage material will be discarded as a physical gestalt, as far as the individual is concerned. [...]
