“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

2. Two weeks after this session was held I added “[mental]” to Seth’s term, “the true physicist,” because he does refer to “mental physicists” in the next three sessions.

Give us a moment … You are presently little aware of the dimensions of consciousness — your own or those seemingly “beneath” your own. The true physicist is one who would dare turn around inside his own consciousness.

Give us a moment … There are inner structures within matter. These are swirls of energy. They have more purposes than one. The structures are formed by organizations of consciousness, or CU’s. You have the most intimate knowledge of the nature of a cell, for example, or of an atom. They compose your flesh. There is, in certain terms, a continuum of consciousness there of which your present physical life is a part. You are in certain kinds of communication and communion with your own cells, and at certain levels of consciousness you know this. A true physicist would learn to reach that level of consciousness at will. There were pictures drawn of cellular structures long before any technological methods of seeing them were available, in your terms.

(With amusement:) The wrong kinds of questions are the right ones for you, however, in your civilization and with your beliefs, because you want to stay within that structure to that extent. Only now are you beginning to question your methods, and even your questions.⁵ The true physicist would be able to ask his questions from his usual state of consciousness, and then turn that consciousness in other directions where he himself would be led into adventures-with-reality, in which the questions would themselves be changed. And then the answers would be felt.

[...] So-called objective approaches will only work at all when you are dealing with so-called objective effects — and your physicists are learning that even in that framework many “facts” are facts only within certain frequencies,² or under certain conditions. [...]

[...] I have mentioned the dream-art scientist and the [true] mental physicist (in sessions 700–1). [...]

[...] So far, Seth hasn’t designated or titled a Part 1.⁶ Jane had received more, but she was vague on it: “… something to do with how each of us could be our own dream-art scientist, mental physicist, and complete physician. [...]

2. Physicists assign a frequency, or vibration in periodic motion, to all objects in our universe — galaxies, stars, planets, subatomic wave/particles, and so forth. [...]

4. I doubt if by his statement Seth means that physicists are attempting to study his CU’s (see Note 2) — certainly not yet, although a few scientists who have written us thereby show that they’re familiar with Seth’s thinking here. Rather, some “modern” physicists are searching for nonmaterial “particles” that certain theories (one of them having to do with “quarks,” for example) say should exist if the theories are valid. [...]

Give us a moment … Physicists know that waves can appear as particles upon certain conditions, and that particles can behave like waves.³ So moments as you understand them are like waves experienced as “particles” — as small bubbles, for example, each one breaking and another forming. [...]

(9:42.) Physicists think of atoms as particles. [...]

Physicists are beginning to study the characteristics of “invisible” particles.⁴ They seem to defy space and time principles. [...]

[...] Some of these civilizations did not need spaceships.⁴ Instead, highly trained men combining the abilities of dream-art scientists and mental physicists cooperated in journeys not only through time but through space. [...]

[...] Physicists are going beyond themselves, so to speak, where even their own instruments cannot follow and where all rules do not apply. [...]

[...] Such ideas involve the physicists’ ongoing conception of the duality of nature. [...]

(Using conventional reincarnational terms, I half jokingly asked Jane if she’d ever been a dream-art scientist, say, or a mental physicist. [...]

[...] Certainly a connection with all of this is the call Jane received from Andrija Puharich a few days ago; he wanted her to see what she could get about physics; he’d been to a meeting of physicists at Princeton University, Wheeler’s home base; he’d given Jane the names of some well-known physicists who were interested in what psychics could get, but she hadn’t remembered any names.)

Impulses possess a far different reality than physicists or biologists suppose. [...]

[...] She thought Seth was “trying to couch the stuff in terms that would make sense to someone who didn’t know much about such things, while keeping it of interest to a physicist, say — which wasn’t easy to do. [...]

[...] The dream-art scientist, the true mental physicist, the complete physician — such designations represent the kinds of training that could allow you to understand the unknown, and therefore the known reality, and so become aware of the blueprints that exist behind the physical universe. [...]

Dictation: To some extent, each individual who wants to can become aware of the “unknown” reality — can become his or her own dream-art scientist, mental physicist, or complete physician, and begin to explore those lands of the psyche that are the real frontier.

Now: such physicians, in their field, are like the mental physicists and dream artists (described in The “Unknown” Reality). [...]

I doubt if physicists in the 1920s were concerned about the psychological activity of atoms, molecules, or particles, although it seems that Heisenberg came close to Seth’s idea when he considered the free behavior of an electron emitted by a light ray. [...]

[...] I can’t help wondering!) Portions of the latest scientific literature I have on hand, particularly that produced by physicists, contain references that not long ago would have been branded as metaphysical, or even worse.

[...] (Some physicists, however, have implied that subatomic particles—photons—communicate with each other as they take their separate but “sympathetic” paths.) Pardon my irony here, but Seth has always dealt with the ramifications of consciousness and maintained also that we do not inhabit just one probable world, but constantly move among them by choice—and by the microsecond, if one chooses.

[...] In those terms, then, quantum mechanics is a theory that doesn’t penetrate deeply enough into basic reality, even if physicists these days are basing their unified field theories upon quantum thinking. [...]

[...] I typed up that portion of the session earlier, and it’s already been read by Terry Jacobs, a physicist from IBM at San Jose, California. [...]

[...] Your image was an excellent one and in your terms it represents the characteristics of space as you might relate to it and also to those black pockets of which the physicists are speaking where all realities swooped into these, so to speak. [...]

[...] The psychologist, the priest, the physicist, the philosopher or the guru, can explain your own psyche to you only insofar as those specialists can forget that they are specialists, and deal directly with the private psyche from which all specializations come.

Through their work with particle accelerators, or “atom smashers,” physicists have discovered that protons and neutrons themselves are composed of forces and particles that in turn are almost certainly composed of forces and particles, and so on, in an ever-descending scale of smaller and smaller entities and concepts. [...]

Some of the “particles” the theoretical physicists have discovered—and/or created—in their gigantic particle accelerators have unbelievably short life-spans in our terms, vanishing, it seems, almost before they’re born. [...]

[...] It can speak in the silence of a room if you have the wits to realize that beneath sound there is what our friend, the physicist over here, might call antisound. [...]

Many physicists now think it untenable to consider that each condition or event in the universe embodies the same kind of time. Physicists and parapsychologists have suggested various sorts of minute and undiscovered entities (mindons, psychons, psitrons, and so forth) that can move backward in time relative to our conscious conception of what time is, or that are at least free of our idea of a time that flows inevitably forward. [...]

The physicists have their hands on the doorknob. [...]

[...] Your physicists can theorize to a certain point. [...]

[...] I asked her help re the address of a physicist in London, to whom I thought of sending a copy of “Unknown” Reality. [...]

[...] Yet, disappearing through one of the physicists’ black holes,⁴ for example, though structure and form would seem to be annihilated and time drastically altered, there would be an emergence at the other end, where the whole “package of a universe,” having been closed in the black hole, would be reopened.

[...] 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. [...]
