[...] The pool of emotional energy into which your emotions flow is still composed of unalike charges, but generally speaking, the individual contribution of all those participating will fall into a coherent pattern that gives impetus and direction to the storm, providing the charge and the power behind it.

[...] Each individual involved had his or her own reasons for participating, and through the mass-created framework, worked out private purposes and dilemmas.

As a case in point, however, we will deal with Ruburt’s and Joseph’s experience with the flood situation, for their participation will have application to many others.

You may be in the middle of one or several very unsatisfactory relationships, none of which seem to be caused by you, while instead you feel as if you are an unwilling victim or participant.

[...] As the smallest cell within your body participates to its degree in your daily experience, so does the soul to an immeasurably greater extent share in the events of the entity.

You, dear reader, are in the process of expanding your psychic structure, [of] becoming a conscious participator with the soul, in certain terms, [of] becoming what your soul is. [...]

And now I have an assignment for you, and the opportunity to participate in my book. [...]

(Through it all, however, we looked forward to our daily participation in Seth’s new book. [...]

You are aware, alert, and participating in many more realities than you know as your soul expresses itself through you. [...]

[...] Each person participating fully in a storm, for example, still participated in his or her own individual way. [...]

One remark: As far as your participation as of now in our books, it might be better, Joseph (as Seth calls me), if you do not think in terms of notes so much, but instead in terms of your writing contribution. [...]

[...] Now I am speaking of the body of science in general terms here, for there is in a way a body of science that exists as a result of each individual scientist’s participation. [...]

This highly intricate web or field obviously reaches out from you as a self to all the persons you perceive, and you also participate in the same sort of web, projecting outward from the other individuals. [...]

[...] As participants within one system of action, you are to a large extent limited by the very participation that gives you reality within the action system.

[...] Others, however, operate even without conscious participation, and those are often solved, or remedied, at the same level without interfering with the conscious mind. [...]

[...] You can make great strides by understanding and recalling dreams, and by consciously participating in them to a far greater degree. [...]

The dream also served as a framework allowing him to intuitively and psychically and biologically perceive the emotional reality of Framework 2. That is, he participated in its emotional content. [...]

[...] The original happening is experienced from a different perspective on the part of each person involved, of course, so that the event’s implications and basic meanings may differ according to the focus of each participant. That given event, in your terms happening for the first time, say, begins to “work upon” the participants. [...]

[...] A missionary fervor, a congregation or student body of approximately 200, but in name only—the center, however, of about 26 participants. [...]

There are dreams of different import, some triggered genetically, that serve as sparks for particular kinds of behavior—dreams, in other words, that literally span the centuries in that regard, coiled latently in the very chromosomes; and no level of consciousness is without some kind of participation in dream states. [...]

You spoke about this plane, mentioning I believe the possibility that the plane had some specified but unknown end, after which the cycle began anew, with of course new personalities participating.

[...] Since dreams are a by-product of any consciousness involved with matter, this leads us to the correct conclusion—that trees have their dreams, that all physical matter, being formed about individualized units of consciousness of varying degrees, also participates in the involuntary construction of the dream universe.

(At about 3:30 PM last Thursday, Jane participated in a startling experience —one that we hoped Seth would at least mention this evening. [...]

[...] Ethically, the CU’s represent the spectacular foundations of the world in value fulfillment, for each unit of consciousness is related to each other, a part of the other, each participating in the entire gestalt of mortal experience. [...]

[...] As physical creatures, they focused upon what you think of as physical identities: separate, individual differences, endowing each physical consciousness with its own original variations and creative potentials, its own opportunity for completely original experience, and a viewpoint or platform from which to participate in reality—one that at that level could not be experienced in the same way by any other individual (all very intently). This is [the] privileged, always new, private and immediate, direct experience of any individual of any species, or of any degree, as it encounters the objective universe.

There is on occasion an extension of self, whereby the Jane ego can also participate, though in a temporarily subordinate manner. [...]

In good circumstances Ruburt then dips into this energy pool, which obviously must contain certain elements of personal experience on the part of the participators. [...]

[...] (Smile.) He participates more when I speak in this manner. [...]

I also participate to some degree, personally, in your system during our sessions. [...]

[...] When these dreams are unusually vivid, then the ego is aware of participating. [...]

[...] For the time, you see, the ego becomes a direct participator in such experiences—at least to some degree.
