Now imagine another adjacent road or line parallel and still further away from your normal consciousness. [...]

[...] Move now, further on this time, to another path or road that you will call A-IV, and that is still further in distance from your normal consciousness. [...]

Now, very gently step from A-I back to your normal state of consciousness and open your eyes. [...]

[...] When you work on individual notes, however, you are back in the more normal necessary method of procedure, where you must know what you have said in time, consecutively. [...]

[...] Normal legs do not —they change with each step, and his are beginning now to move as they should.

[...] He feared for a while, again, that it was not possible for him to walk properly or move normally. [...] I tell you that the inner work is mental, and it need not be work—but if each of you believe he is beginning to attain normal flexibility, he will.

He must avoid contradictions, while at the same time not putting his normal walking into some distant future. You must believe that in Framework 2 all of the necessary procedures involved in his normal walking are now happening, and believe that improvements and obvious states of that process will occur in Framework 1. The evidence will appear in Framework 1 as you believe it. [...]

Again, the more normal activities, as with the dishes, et cetera, that Ruburt tries, the more he states his intent to do normal things. [...]

[...] Spontaneity had to be allowed if any normality of motion was to occur. [...]

[...] Explaining the experience to the normal consciousness automatically helps expand it (the normal consciousness), so that each time the process becomes easier. [...]

[...] The blurring is — was — also necessary to aid in distinguishing another reality from the normally accepted one, particularly in the beginning of such activity. He was tuning into probable neurological materializations … that are ghost images inherent in the normal nervous structure … latent connections biologically part of the cells’ realities. [...]

[...] I didn’t see how it could be inserted into a normal manuscript because it had this extra dimension. [...]

[...] The world of normal communication I call Framework 1, while Framework 2 represents that inner world, in which indeed all time is simultaneous, and actions that might take years in normal time can happen in the blinking of an eyelid in Framework 2.

Briefly, Framework 1 deals with all the events of which you are normally conscious.

[...] You are simply not as aware of them as you are of normally conscious ones. [...]

Let us begin with the normal waking consciousness that you know. [...] It is adjacent to your normal consciousness, separated from it very slightly; and yet in it very definite effects can appear that are not present in your usual state.

[...] You then return to normal consciousness, going through the A-l state that you used as a preliminary. [...] Then in your normal state of consciousness, of course, you make the decision that you want from the information and experience that you have received.

[...] In your normal state you see the body. [...]

[...] Normal writing will become as real to him as his normal hearing is now. [...]

[...] The eight tests that were run were all normal; I have a list of them. [...]

Reading those sessions together is important, for it is the inner realities and the inner insights that will also release the thyroid’s proper activity, and allow the resumption of more normal physical expression. [...]

Normal angry feelings are natural methods of communication, ways of stabilizing situations. [...] Coupled with a habit of consciously (underlined) repressing normal angry feelings, we have Ruburt’s loyalty to you. [...]

[...] Ruburt never learned how to handle normal aggressive thoughts.

There was no normal (underlined) give and take in a family with siblings, where equals—children—could more or less safely express themselves between themselves.

Your pendulum work is at the point where you are lulling fears, and in the process of dissolving them to a normal level. [...] Ruburt feels safe enough in your lovemaking activities, and that exuberance and response is excellent, so again, make sure that such events become a part of the normal expression of your lives.

[...] Without that, normal walking would be most difficult. [...]

I want to reassure Ruburt in this period that significant areas of recovery are now indeed being accomplished, and he can indeed proceed to normal locomotion if you continue as you are doing.

— is instead the result of an exaggeration or overextension of perfectly normal body processes. You are not attacked by viruses, for instance, for all kinds of viruses exist normally in the body. [...] We will have more to say about such issues later on in the book — for I hope to show you how certain feelings and beliefs do indeed promote health, while others promote an unfortunate extension or exaggeration of perfectly normal bodily processes, or viral activity.

[...] Ruburt in particular, and you also, must understand that he can indeed recover normally, that he can indeed walk normally again—and moreover that normal walking is the body’s natural tendency—his body’s as well as anyone else’s.

You have seldom assured him that one day he would be walking normally, because, of course, you are also caught in the same dilemma. [...]

[...] If so, check your rooms against their normal arrangement. Anything that does not normally belong there may be an hallucination, part of the usual dreaming process. [...] If you rationalize any such elements or accept them uncritically, you may fall back into normal dreaming.

[...] It was weeks later before I regained my normal feelings for our apartment. [...] I’ve had normal dreams that were in vivid color, but nothing like that, and at no other time has my usual earthly environment been bathed in such iridescence.

[...] They enrich normal experience, broaden the usual restrictions of daily perception and encourage creative thought. [...] These dimensions of experience and consciousness co-exist with normal reality as we know it, and I believe that in them we exercise abilities that are ours by right and heritage.

[...] They operate constantly beneath normal waking consciousness…

While you go about your daily chores and endeavors, beneath normal waking consciousness you are constantly focused in other realities also, reacting to stimuli of which your physical conscious self is not aware, perceiving conditions through the inner senses, and experiencing events that are not even registered within the physical brain. [...]

[...] The events of which you are conscious are only those fragments of activities that intrude or appear to your normal waking consciousness. [...]

Rob’s notes provide the necessary exterior orientation for this present volume, as they do for the previous Seth books, and hint at the framework of normal life in which Seth so gallantly “appears” twice weekly, tossing off my glasses and thereby signaling the beginning of my trance. [...] The day may have been calm or distracted by unexpected guests, or marked by any of life’s normal domestic ups and downs.

[...] In this book, though, Seth states that it is our normal everyday impulses that we must learn to trust. [...] And finally I began to understand: Our normal impulses are heroic, despite our misunderstanding of them. [...]

[...] He’s speaking of our normal impulses here, those that we’ve been taught are dangerous, chaotic, and contradictory. [...]

[...] Projections of a kind do also occur while the normal waking consciousness is up and about its normal chores. [...]

[...] In some cases according to your own level of projection, some will be going about their normal lives within other planes or systems. [...]

[...] he decided he would not be humiliated again, for he could no longer “pass” as normal.

[...] Ruburt felt he could not go out again until he could do so without embarrassing himself or you, and until he walked normally. [...]

[...] You must both be on guard against comparing his walking with normal walking.

Some people may seem completely normal in behavior unless certain subjects are brought up in the course of a conversation, or unless some stimulus in the environment arouses them.

For instance, the individual might be talking along normally enough when he or she hears the sirens of a police car in the distance. [...]

[...] I looked at Rob with a touch of dismay because while I’d reassured Jack that everything was quite normal, actually something was different this time: I felt as if I’d been in a plane going incredibly fast, only to be yanked suddenly to a halt. [...]

[...] Because of the emergence of Seth, I’ve become increasingly aware of many other states of consciousness besides the normal daily state that all of us know.

[...] Then my physical environment does not concern me, and my normal waking life is the dream.

[...] He completely lacks the ability to discuss normal fears and worries in any kind of neighborhood contact—with girl friends. The fears finally became so charged that all normal discussion was out of the question. [...]

[...] Behind any ordinary disagreement you might voice, any normal protest, he felt there was a great charge. [...]

[...] The feeling that you did not need him began to grow out of normal bounds in Florida. [...]
