“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

These are unfoldings, as the inner self materializes what is already latent into physical actuality. Now there may be areas in which the inner self is simply not interested. [...] The inner self is a developing entity, not a finished product. [...]

The inner self is acquainting itself with reality as it exists there. [...] Any faulty constructions however are used by the inner self in a feedback system and as a part of the learning process. Your system is not the most elementary, but it is one of the most elementary, and it is a way that the inner self acquaints itself with certain basic facts.

The inner self therefore uses the physical system to express its own inclinations and ideas of reality. It is the inner self that unfolds those patterns of behavior spoken about in the article you read on infant growth. [...]

[...] Inner problems are literally brought out into the open when they can be faced, recognized, dealt with and conquered, using the symptoms as measuring points of progress. A trial-and-error system is (underlined) involved; but inner processes are reflected rather quickly in these cases upon the physical condition.

[...] To bring this even clearer, you could even imagine that the whole inner universe was an organism, of which your universe represented but one small portion. Yet in using the inner senses, you yourselves probe into this universe, and at least in analogy dissect it, the inner self acting as the imaginary knife.

[...] The rocket ship would be the inquiring inner self in motion. This inner self in motion is bound to set up ripples of counteraction. [...]

[...] I use the word shape for simplicity’s sake, but the electrical universe is composed of dimensions which are perceived by the inner self, for the inner self also has existence within the electrical universe. [...]

Now, if you will follow me closely you will obtain a hint at least of the structure of the inner self. It is composed, that is, each inner self is composed, structurally of a particular range of electrical intensities with which various personalities have their identities insured, since their identity is composed of particular intensities within the range.

Now the so-called laws of your camouflage universe do not apply to the inner universe. [...] However, the laws of the inner universe apply to all camouflage universes, and all consciousnesses on any plane must follow the basic laws of the inner universe. [...]

[...] You will see also how the inner senses are equipped to perceive basic inner realities of the inner universe, in much the same manner that your outer senses are equipped to manipulate within your camouflage universe.

[...] It is a natural method of protecting the individual by giving him an inner knowledge of events. Without constant clairvoyance on the part of every man and woman, existence on your plane would involve such inner, psychological insecurity that it would be completely unbearable.

The inner senses also convey the knowledge that death is merely an energy transformation, and your almost numberless religions merely represent idea symbols that attempt to make this knowledge plain to the ego. [...] They have managed in some way to make this inner knowledge a part of the ego-understanding of the species.

[...] The unifying and the limiting aspects of consecutive moments are absent in inner reality. [...] You are not forced to perceive action as a series of moments within inner reality, therefore.

Individually, you move in a very limited area of this vast universe, and yet inner reality is more (long pause) massive in size, if you speak in terms of size. [...]

[...] In dreams you journey through inner realities as actually as you walk physically through the matter of the physical world. [...]

In your journeys into inner reality you cannot proceed with the same root agreements, you see. [...]

[...] With disentanglement, the inner self disengages itself from one particular camouflage before it either adopts another set smoothly or dispenses with camouflage entirely. [...] In some ways, your dream world gives you a closer experience with basic inner reality than does your waking world, where the Inner Senses are so shielded from your awareness.”

We’ve had very little conscious experience with this Inner Sense. [...]

[...] The inner self attempts to construct a physical image in line with its own self-image. Any errors of construction have their origin not in the inner self, but in either the personal subconscious or in the ego.

What interrupts this inner impetus could be compared to what you call poor suggestion. [...] It interrupts what should be a simultaneous and easy flow of inner impetus outward, in your case outward to physical construction. [...]

What you call a negative suggestion is never acted upon unless the inner block of energies has already occurred. Suggestion, as I understand it, is the culmination of the inner voice that urges action into ever more diverse and creative patterns.

The personal subconscious can be thought of as a threshold between the ego and the inner self; not only can glimmerings of the inner self be glimpsed through the subconscious, but also the diverse characteristics of the ego touch this personal subconscious. [...]

[...] That love of nature, and appreciation, quickened and utilized inner biological capacities, also possessed by plants and animals, so that man was more consciously aware of his part in nature. [...] It is almost impossible in your time to describe man’s reality when he was consciously aware that he would die and yet not die, and when he was everywhere surrounded by those inner data of his psyche.

[...] They appeared and disappeared as man perceived, and then did not perceive, these inner realities. These inner realities were “real.” [...]

The inner landscape is no less real because you do not generally perceive it. In Framework 2 that inner landscape is the reality, and it is from that world that your physical events emerge.

When consciousness becomes overly exteriorized and no longer identifies strongly with nature, then it no longer properly identifies itself with the inner nature of its own actions. [...]

“Psychological Time is a natural pathway that was meant to give an easy route of access from the inner world to the outer, and back again, though you do not use it as such. Psychological Time originally enabled man to live in the inner and outer worlds with relative ease. [...] From its framework you will see that physical time is as dreamlike as you once thought inner time was. [...]

Actually, in practice, Psychological Time leads to development of the other Inner Senses. [...] Then imagine that the Inner Senses have another set of dials. [...]

I call this seemingly unconscious the “inner ego,” for it directs inner activities. It correlates information that is perceived not through the physical senses, but through other inner channels. It is the inner perceiver of reality that exists beyond the three-dimensional. [...]

All necessary information is given to you through these inner channels, and unbelievable inner activities take place before you can so much as lift a finger, flicker an eyelid, or read this sentence upon the page. [...]

The “outer ego” and the inner ego operate together, the one to enable you to manipulate in the world that you know, the other to bring you those delicate inner perceptions without which physical existence could not be maintained.

Now because your conscious mind, as you think of it, is not aware of these activities, you do not identify with this inner portion of yourselves. [...]

Consciously you react to the physical data — the noise, the squeal of brakes perhaps, the visual shock of seeing the car so close, but the entire inner reality of that scene or event is instantly “recognized” by what I refer to as your inner senses. [...]

There are chains of influence that are actually composed of inner values of sound that thread together, as it were, the complicated interweavings of both the genes and chromosomes.

[...] (Long pause.) The electromagnetic and inner sound patterns are impinged upon by certain kinds of light. [...]

[...] Here the exterior data is translated and broken down into inner terms. [...]

[...] This Inner Sense, like all others, is being used constantly by the inner self, but very little of the data received is sifted through to the subconscious or ego. [...] This sense is a stronger version of inner vibrational touch.

“Remember that these Inner Senses operate as a whole, working together smoothly, and that to some degree the divisions between them are arbitrary on my part. [...]

[...] As you should know, mental acts have an electromagnetic reality which directly affects the inner self, which directly forms the constantly changing nature of the inner self. For the inner self is, after all, composed of mental actions, and the entity itself is everchanging.

[...] These inner events are the results of action’s own characteristics. [...]

[...] Your identity, your inner self, is a main action-event, forming other such events that are the various portions of your personality.

[...] You can therefore check your inner status by observing your outer status. [...]

Now: the inner self is the primary personal creator and perceiver, the seat of identity, a consciousness then with many faces. Each portion of the inner self creates its own reality, and perceives the structure of matter to which it is attuned.

The subject of matter then becomes one of correlating inner data with outward experience and appearance. The inner core of the self has no difficulty in uniting and correlating the outward experience of its many personalities, but the subject of reincarnation cannot be understood without a knowledge of the nature of matter.

[...] Think of the subconscious now merely as an academic psychologist might; as that inner portion of the self who is concerned with physical survival. [...]

[...] Instead this is carried on by the core (spelled) inner self.

The unharmonious sounds have become a part of that portion of the body as a result of the inner sound of your own thought-beliefs. That is why it is vital that you not reinforce these inner sounds through repeating the same negative suggestions to yourself. Verbal suggestions are translated into inner sound. [...]

As I mentioned (in the last session), inner sounds are extremely important. [...] When there is something wrong the inner sounds are discordant.

Mental images therefore are extremely powerful, combining inner sound and its effects with a clear mental picture which will seek physical form. Your imagination adds motivating and propelling power to such images, and so you will find that many of your beliefs are entertained by you in an inner visual manner. [...]

I told you that thoughts are translated into this inner sound, but thoughts always attempt to materialize themselves also. [...]

[...] Therefore I am concerned with, and I emphasize, the importance of inner knowledge, and see physical symptoms for what they are—a reflection of an inner reality.

Earlier I recommended a good hypnotist, hoping that the woman might find her way if positive suggestions were given; for even if the inner self had solved its problems, it would need help, psychological help, in reversing the physical trend. [...] The inner personality was not ready.

[...] To heal a disease by any method is not to remove the inner cause, unless other precise steps are taken.

[...] But the inner self of the woman knows that in facing such a condition and finding nevertheless some moments of joy, even some compassion for others, that the personality has satisfied many of those feelings of inadequacy from the past existence. [...]

[...] The seasons as you know represent the physical construction of the inner psychic climate. As particular portions of matter are transformed, as the inner self, through the inner senses creates a simple material object that is picked up by the outer senses clearly as, say, a table, so are these other constructions that closely mirror inner reality that are perceived by the outer senses as effects.

Psychic sympathy can be expanded in some space of the mind, of any mind, of any inner mind. All things are known, for in the depths of the inner self emotional sympathy is endless. By sympathy I refer to an inner connection, an attraction, not necessarily a pity.

There are as you know barriers, boundaries and various dimensions through which you must travel in this type of inner exploration. [...]

Psychological time is indeed the only medium, or framework, within which exploration of the inner self can be carried on. [...]

[...] That is, Ruburt automatically translates inner data given by me into coherent, valid and faithful camouflage patterns, into words. [...] The transference of my data is automatic and instantaneous on Ruburt’s part and is performed through the inner workings of the mind, the inner senses and the brain.

I do intend to go into all the inner senses in a very detailed manner but tonight is not the time. Ruburt would also do well to try for inner visions. However this will take much practice on her part, as she is as far from proficiency along that line as you are far from her use of the ability to transform inner data into audio patterns.

It is true that Joseph receives much data through inner visions. [...] You can learn, Joseph, to use your other inner senses as I tell you more about them.

In any case however, her inner senses were indeed wide open. [...]

[...] The ego becomes more similar to the inner ego than to its old self, comparatively speaking. This altered ego is aware of large portions of inner reality that were previously denied. [...] It is able to open up so that inner experience can be received.

[...] This is the inner nature of action. Those inner thoughts or desires, impulses not made physically real in your terms, will be made real within other systems.

[...] Now it is open to inner data to a large degree. [...]

The personality is more integrated, yet through its acceptance of inner data, the ego, to use the term lightly, has expanded. [...]

It is quite true that the inner ego is aware through the inner senses of any choices that the outer ego will make with the use of free will. [...] It only means that the inner ego is not bound by the dimensions in which those free will choices are made.

Tuesday does not exist to the inner ego. [...] This simply does not exist to the inner ego, therefore the inner ego is effortlessly aware of any choices or decisions that you may make freely in say 1970. [...]

Before we close I want to mention the importance of the third inner sense with the experience of concept patterns. The third inner sense, involving what you would call perception of past, present and future, is the sense that enables the inner ego and entities to experience direct concept-patterns, and free them therefore from successive cause and effect limitations.

Your clock time as you know is camouflage, and does not exist as far as the inner ego is concerned. [...] The inner ego is aware of fewer barriers and therefore is not bound by time to the degree that the outer ego is bound.

It is only through the use of this inner man, through the recognition of the functions of this inner man, that the race will ever use its potential. The outer senses will not help man to achieve the inner purpose which drives him. Empathy is an outer materialization, very superficial, of the first inner sense which we have discussed so briefly.

The book was a first attempt in forming a definite pattern of the material that he was receiving from the inner senses. [...] The camouflage pattern world is formed by the mind, and I am using this now in its true term as a part of the inner world. Energy is received by the mind through the inner senses and transformed by use of mental enzymes into camouflage patterns.

Psychological time so-called belongs to the inner self, that is to the mind. It is however a connective, a portion of one of the inner senses, which we will call for convenience the second inner sense.

Outer physical time is a complete camouflage, unnecessary basically on your plane; but you have made it seem necessary because of your refusal to admit the inner self as part of your whole personality, and therefore you have not been able to utilize psychological time to its fullest advantage on your plane. Psychological time as I have said is a natural pathway, part of an inner sense, that was meant as an easy access from the inner to the outer world and back again. [...]
