“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The value climate of psychological reality can be likened to an ocean in which all consciousness has its being. There are multitudinous levels that can be plunged into, with various life forms, diverse and alien, but nevertheless interconnected and dependent one upon the other. I like the ocean analogy because you get the idea of continuous flow and motion without apparent division.

What is required is more than a shedding of clothes, however. To plunge into this ocean you also leave the physical body at the shore. It will be there when you get back. Your camouflage patterns can be likened to those cast by sun and shadow upon the ever-moving waves. As long as you keep the pattern in mind, you create it, and it is there. If you turn your head away for a moment and then look quickly back you can see only the wave. Your camouflage and your world are created by conscious focusing and unconscious concentration. Only by turning your head aside momentarily can you see what is beneath the seemingly solid pattern. By plunging into our ocean of value climate you can dive beneath your camouflage system and look up to see it, relatively foundationless, floating above you, moved, formed, and directed by the shifting illusions caused by the wind of will, and the force of subconscious concentration and demand.

[...] Jane likened it to the vibration one might feel through the floor of a house, say from traffic passing close by. [...]

(Jane also likened this feeling, which she called feeling a “certain way,” to the rhythmical, not-too-strenuous opening and closing of a hand. [...]

[...] The pleasure principle can probably be likened most to the latent appreciation of beauty that is everywhere apparent if you look for it: the ecstasy of each form of life for the wonders of its own existence, in which love’s values go beyond themselves, and yet a condition in which each species or life form “realizes” that its own fulfillment adds immeasurably to the existence of all other forms.

[...] Your plane could be likened to a small position between four very spindly and thin wires, and my plane could be likened to the small position in the neighboring wires on the other side. [...]

[...] While trying psychological time, Jane again experienced the feeling she has likened to ecstasy, and described so thoroughly on page 66. [...]

[...] It is that the sixth inner sense, of which we have spoken briefly, can be likened in some respects to the instincts of the inner self. [...]

“In some cases the distortion could be likened to the reflection of a solid tree in water. [...]

[...] In other terms, this can be likened to the discovery of a new world or land that has existed, of course, but whose existence was unsuspected. [...]

(“Can Jane’s poems be likened to experiences or conclusions on her part of past events, lives, or dreams?”)

[...] Your plane could be likened to a small position between four very spindly wires, and my plane could be likened to the small position in the neighboring wires on the other side. [...]

[...] If you were thinking in terms of physical reality, then this area could be likened to one immediately above the atmosphere of your earth. [...]

That state which you achieved could be likened to my state, except that I am fully conscious and able to use the abilities inherent in it. [...]

[...] The dominant personality can be likened on your plane to the dominant entity. [...]

[...] The inner senses are the carriers of our fuel, that is, they can be likened to the various cars of our imaginary train. [...]

Almost but not quite, our invisible fuel carried to us by our inner senses could be likened to the air which you breathe, and which on a calm day is so difficult to perceive.

(While speaking tonight, Jane said she has within a definite “feeling of a pulsation”; it might be likened to the perpetual opening and closing of a fist, she said, with each opening and each closing creating a new reality, and thus moving itself perpetually on.

[...] She likened the experience to manipulated dream images; none of them had bothered her.

[...] And indeed, the present physical event as it exists now at the energy plant near Harrisburg can easily be likened to — and is — a warning dream to change man’s actions.

The value climate of psychological reality can be likened to an ocean in which all consciousness has its being. [...]

[...] Your camouflage patterns can be likened to the patterns cast by sun and shadow upon the ever-moving waves. [...]

[...] When Jane read her material of this afternoon to me, I thought she likened the Sinful Self’s renewal to reincarnation, meaning that she thought this renewal might account for many of our overt ideas of reincarnation—that at least some of our ideas about reincarnation were based upon our intuitive knowledge of the return of portions of one’s self to that earlier state of innocence—a rebirth, in other words, that we might translate into the idea of physical incarnation.
