“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Consciousness has a feel the same way that a body does. When you do different things with it, it feels differently. The feelings themselves can be clues, so that when you feel them again they’re familiar. Consciousness isn’t solid, airy, distant thing that you just see through. It’s an alive, vital part of us. It provides various kinds of sensation. It’s free outside of the body, sometimes freer than it is inside the body. Therefore let it find its own way in this experiment. Let it go wherever it wants. Give it the same kind of a freedom that you would if you were holding a flashlight and flashing it through a forest. You wouldn’t say I’ll only flash the light in this direction because it’s a safe direction. You’d flash it all over so that you could see what was before you. Usually we just flash our consciousness in one direction and say this is real, but in this experiment at least, let us flash that light down that pyramid in whatever direction we choose.
