“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

While probabilities do operate, your consciousness usually deals with one at a time. [...]

[...] Several things were operating. [...]

“This sense operates in two ways. [...]

(Pause, one of many, at 9:37.) While operating through the body structures, consciousnesses such as your own focus largely upon the three-dimensional orientation. [...]

[...] Operating outside the body, consciousness can better perceive the properties of matter. [...]

[...] On the other hand, an out-of-body consciousness may also enter other physically attuned realities: those operating “at different frequencies than your own.” [...]

[...] These will help you to understand how other kinds of cultures could operate in ways so alien to your own.

[...] You yourselves, had you the time and inclination, could trace such issues as they operated in any area through the years. [...]

[...] I want it understood that I am using you both as examples here, for such conditions operate in any situation. [...]

[...] One man who wrote you said he got sick to his stomach when he tried to write, and Ruburt could see easily the suggestion operating. [...]

[...] Suggestion operates as an organizer, bringing you from Framework 2 exactly what you want. [...]

[...] When Augustus felt threatened then the conscious mind switched over, accepting as operating procedure the system of beliefs in which Augustus saw himself as all-powerful, secure — but as alien. [...]

Here the polarity between Augustus One and Two had dissolved, so that the two opposing systems of belief operated alongside each other. [...]

[...] As Augustus Two he could stay up night and day and perform physical tasks quite difficult for the normal human being to do, for he operated under the indivisible idea of power and strength.

Here then is a case where directly opposing beliefs dominated the conscious mind at various times, each operating the body in its own manner. [...]

[...] Georgia is to be operated on next Tuesday.

[...] She’d had the same operation, a myelogram, that Georgia is to get for a herniated disc. [...]

[...] We have cleared the communication channels both privately in your individual cases, and your joint communication systems as you operate together.

An unfortunate grouping of habits operating through the body are breaking up. [...]

[...] It’s importance simply being the result of a previous operation. [...]

[...] This seems to be the operative pattern: the improvements come after a period of extra soreness and/or difficulty walking, or whatever.)

Now, this same sort of emotional system operates in the sleeping state as well as in the waking state, though there are differences in that the personality will allow greater leeway in the dream state. [...] You know that telepathy and clairvoyance operate rather freely in the dream state. [...]

[...] There is on her part a block, that operates in much the same manner as Ruburt’s ego on occasion, as far as our sessions are concerned. [...]

[...] What is not understood is that emotional attitudes, conscious and subconscious, have an electromagnetic reality that operates very efficiently, either as an open system which attracts new stimuli, or as a closed electric force that is supercharged.

Now these same sort of emotional systems operate under all conditions, and they regulate the kinds of experience to which an individual is susceptible or open, and they close out from his awareness those experiences which he has already decided he will not accept. [...]

[...] Probabilities always operate, and your intents, but this is the prognosis now, with what has happened physically so far, and has already begun in the body.

[...] Consciousness, for example, can be defined as a wave or as a particle, for it can operate as either, and appear as either, even though its true definition would have to include the creative capacity to shape itself into such forms.

[...] While everything seems neat and tidy within those specifications, and whole, you operate with brilliant nonchalance in the theater of time and space. [...]

[...] You know that the individual cells of any form cooperate to form another, more complicated gestalt; and without the cooperation not only would the more complicated structure cease to operate, but the individual cells would also cease to operate.

Here you will discover man’s true origins, and the mechanisms and ways in which the unseen self operates, forms his universe of matter through psychic energy, and communicates on levels unperceived by his outer physical organism.

We operate on a cooperative basis, and will continue to do so. [...]

By way of comment, and in reference to this discussion only, without taking other issues into consideration, your own parents for example operated largely in Framework 1 for their entire lives. In portions of our work and your own, you have sometimes operated in Framework 3. Ruburt’s initial Idea Construction experience momentarily propelled him into Framework 4, where indeed enough energy, creativity, and power was generated to change his life beneficially, and open his mind to higher levels of understanding and knowledge.

To Ruburt that is taken for granted—for there he operates extraordinarily well, mixing and merging the realities of Frameworks 1 and 2. The practical results of course appear in Framework 1, while the real creativity takes place in Framework 2. Understand that I make these divisions for simplicity’s sake, for the realities are merged. [...]

[...] In the physical flexibility area, however, you are operating in Framework 2 yourself, and so you can be of great help by catching Ruburt when he projects negatively on the one hand, and on the other by leading him toward the more creative habits of thought that are your own about your body.

[...] The environment itself is conscious (forcefully). Atoms and molecules themselves operate in their own fields of probabilities. [...]

Now: It is true, then, that the cells do operate on the one hand apart from time, and on the other with a firm basis in time, so that the body’s integrity as a time-space organism results.

It is true that on a conscious level you do not as yet operate outside of time, but are bound by it. [...]

[...] When your fate seems dependent upon heredity, for example, then the transmission of ideas and beliefs operates; these give signals to the chromosomes. [...]

(Jane hadn’t operated well yesterday.¹ She did tell me that she was somewhat surprised to realize Seth might be closer to completing his work on Dreams than she’d thought he was. [...]

The same curious mixture of nonpredictable and predictable activity operates in genetic patterning also, in which the genetic systems are largely set up to achieve the retention of specific characteristics, and yet can also demonstrate behavior that seems (underlined) to be genetically unfaithful, distorted, or to introduce alterations that might appear to be travesties upon genetic integrity.

[...] Right now I’m really blue, my eyes operating poorly; tears warmly close; yet enjoying the dark sky and street as rain threatens… the view of the mountains afforded by the windows; the rock music on the radio; the odd remaining odor of door varnish—deeply loving all of it yet swept through with something like nostalgia. [...]

Now: Your documentary rather neatly shows two portions of the world’s mind operating at odds, rather than in complementary ways—almost as if they were surgically separated, or somehow functionally impaired, as in many ways they have been through misunderstandings throughout the years. [...]

Both portions of this world mind, or world brain, therefore, operate in exaggerated fashions, so that their own characteristics are almost caricatured, untempered as it were by other portions, as if perhaps in an individual the left and right portions of the brain were artificially functionally separated. [...]

[...] Like political hostages, it does not get all of the mail—or the mail it does get is apt to be censored, so it is not operating with a full set of facts. [...]

[...] They operate very smoothly. [...]

[...] That blockage may still allow a kind of displacement targeting, however, in which case inner abilities are allowed to operate, but in a rather sabotaged way—not hitting the target with which the conscious mind is so familiar or concentrated upon, but hitting another microscopic target instead, in which effects are then noticeable. [...]

(Long pause at 9:31.) The displacement target effect is highly important, for it operates in many other fashions. [...]

[...] Often the contact is really enough, and the reply, whatever it is, for it assures them that someone, somewhere, is trying to operate within a circle of knowledge and sanity.

[...] When you are building self-trust, and your body is in any way impaired, then you are learning to do something that you did not do when your body was operating beautifully.

[...] These CU’s therefore can operate even within time, as you understand it, in ways that are most difficult to explain. [...]

[...] In their own way, and using an analogy, now, in certain respects at least the CU’s operate as minute but extremely potent black holes and white holes, as they are presently understood by your physicists. [...]

Even when you lost sight — as you knew you would — of those deep connections, they would continue to operate until, in its own way, man’s consciousness could rediscover the knowledge and put it to use — deliberately and willfully, thereby bringing that consciousness to flower. [...]

[...] They farm the land as you farm the water, and are only now learning how to operate upon the land for any amount of time, as you are only now learning how to manipulate below the water.

“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. [...]
