“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] She is focusing less and less in this plane of reality, and again, gradually, she will begin to focus in another. There is a period of adjustment after leaving any plane, although yours involves the most difficulty since your camouflage pattern is unusually rigid.

The inner senses operate on all planes and under all circumstances. The outer senses vary according to plane and circumstance. [...]

At the precise time of Ruburt’s dream, Miss Cunningham was deciding to leave this plane of reality. [...]

[...] But beyond this, Miss Cunningham’s present personality has been gently disentangling itself from this plane of reality — and she simply did not remember him.

[...] They, the inner senses, are your regardless of the particular camouflage plane you might inhabit at any given instance. Only by using the inner senses can you perceive while on your plane the inner reality of which it is part.

[...] Existence on your plane or any other plane is merely self-hypnosis. [...]

[...] Any instruments made on your plane are like your outer senses, constructed to perceive camouflage patterns. [...]

[...] Nothing exists in any universe or on any plane that does not have form of one sort or another. [...]

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.

[...] Beyond this however, your idea would result in an end to your plane that was unavoidable. There are cycles, but they are brought about individually and en masse by the personalities active on your plane.

[...] Therefore, such personalities that you would project are already projected, and only the veil of unawareness divides you, as only the veil of unawareness ever separates one field or plane from another.

In some respects all planes or fields of existence are indeed by-products of others. [...]

[...] This means that my approach to a given problem will be vastly different than the approach of another personality, even on my plane, who has different interests. [...]

[...] A doctor will try to the best of his ability to relieve the symptoms, and most of them, regardless of their plane of endeavor, are content with this. [...]

[...] No doctor in your plane or mine, can relieve an individual of symptoms if the symptoms are serving a valid purpose to the inner self; or, in relieving particular symptoms, others will arise.

[...] (Pause.) We are all individuals regardless of our plane of existence. [...]

[...] On an unconscious level however the self is very aware of the progress of these secondary personalities, and indeed uses this plane itself for the fulfillment and development of qualities originally attached to it, but incompatible with its main intents. The two planes constantly enrich and affect each other.

For practical purposes you might say, and for practical purposes only, that on your plane the self is limited only by the fields of energy that it can control. [...]

The self, then, is far from limited even on your own plane. [...]

[...] Initially, before existence upon the physical plane this time, you could just as easily have focused upon a different quality-personality gestalt, although your choice most probably would be in line with a large field of possibilities, possible according to the desires of your entity.

[...] [Rob had made a remark to this effect earlier.] The midplane is indeed an excellent description of the semi-plane which she now inhabits. It is a waiting plane for personalities at certain stages of development.

[...] They are not as yet committed to the next plane of their advancement.

[...] In your case, it enables you to focus your artistic ability along lines necessary to make it effective on your plane. [...]

[...] This is, I’m sorry to say, a natural occurence often on your plane. [...]

[...] The personality is already immersed in a dimensional transformation; when the emotional need of those within the physical plane call out for communication, they add to the pull or force of the attraction still present, binding portions of the personality to the physical field, and can add to the resistance encountered by personalities in transformation.

[...] I have told you many times that planes or fields, or dimensions of activity, whatever you prefer to call them, move through each other often, and do not collide. [...]

I have told you also, long ago, that what appears as weight or mass on one plane may appear as something else entirely upon another. [...]

I have told you that a plane was not necessarily a location in space, but a field of mental vitality. [...]

The consciousness will expand on your planet, just as it expands for those who go beyond your plane. [...] It is toward this that evolution on the earthly plane is headed, though of course with its usual donkey-slow rate.

[...] Usually it cannot operate on all levels of your physical plane.

[...] In any case by the time that this goal is reached on the earthly plane, those who have passed from it will have evolved in ways of which even I can only dream. [...]

[...] The physical property is left behind, no portion of it being carried on that plane through children.

You do transform ideas into image patterns, but they do not have durability or continuity on your plane. They do however, possess durability and continuity on another plane with which you are subconsciously familiar. [...]

[...] In the light trance state, the inner self is free from the camouflage nature of your plane, and the truly humorous aspect is this: Only by freeing yourself from your own camouflage universe can you see it clearly, understand it for what it is, and actually learn to use it for mankind’s best advantage.

I have explained to you how the inner self is connected to the present personality, and how the emotions at your end change through the layers of the subconscious, begin in your plane as parts of the personality, and as part of your force field, and then are transformed and become the inner-sense connective that connects the outer ego to the inner self.

I have also explained how energy is transformed, and changes, adapting itself to the particular camouflage pattern of any given plane. [...]

In the beginning entry to your plane requires a simple energy unit, a sperm, a simple but potent capsule that contains all the future potentiality. After entry into your plane, the self or identity, the consciousness, without any physical act, can leave the physical body, expand, travel through the medium of atoms and molecules, and completely reassemble.

[...] The inner ego being unhampered by the laws of your plane, once having entered your plane at physical birth, can therefore leave the physical body and then reconstruct it.

[...] It is true that use of the outer senses, and full joyful use, is necessary on your plane. [...]

[...] In a very true sense each self is infinite, unbounded, connected in a most intimate way to all other things in the universe on your plane; and through the inner senses and the inner ego connected also in a most intimate way to the unknown and unseen inner universe.

It is this ability which is ever a strong force on your plane, having to do with the building up of particular elements, atoms, neurons and so forth, into camouflage patterns. On your plane you must use this organizing ability to form the camouflage pattern. There are planes with much simpler camouflage patterns, and some inhabited by personalities too weak or limited in this ability, and others inhabited by personalities strong in this ability to use energy, but who no longer need to use it in such a camouflage pattern.

[...] The brain would be more or less what it is, that is, the brain of the present personality existing on a camouflaged plane. [...]

[...] In actuality the mind is but a portion of the entity which looks out for the personality on the camouflage plane. [...]

The mind as I mentioned earlier is part of the inner plane. [...]

(“Can Jane consciously get rid of that hate and open her spirit on this plane?”)

Free will this plane for that type adjustment.

(“Why haven’t our serious creative writers dealt more fully with this fact of communication between the two planes, if you can so easily communicate with us now?”)

Let us say that this particular plane may well crash, and in fact does. [...] Lo and behold—for while everything seems so poorly, our friend’s life is being saved, for he misses his plane.

If our friend learned of the plane crash, he saw this only too well. If he never learned of the plane crash, and did not have faith in the beneficial nature of events, then he might simply remember the entire affair as highly unpleasant, stupid, and even think that it was another example that he could do nothing right.

[...] The person may take great precautions to see that the plane is not missed. [...]

Any material, to exist on your plane, must to some extent don the attire of your plane, and in the very entry to your plane it must be somewhat distorted. [...]

[...] This material is more valid than any material possible on your plane, but it is nevertheless to some degree conditioned by the camouflage attributes of the plane.

Truth contains no distortions, and this material with all my best efforts, and with yours, of necessity must contain distortions merely in order to make itself exist at all on your plane. [...]

—laughing, I must say, in overwhelming mirth at this esthetic nature of its own personalities, that so often closes out joy and freedom, and the pleasures of nature on your plane.

[...] It is as you deduced a waiting plane for personalities at certain stages of development. [...] In other words they do not belong as yet, or are not committed to the next plane of their advancement.

I know you are rather concerned with the differentiation between planets and planes. [...] Dreams, yours and Ruburt’s, your flying saucers, some of your visions, planes, planets and radio stars. [...]

[...] Your artistic ability does not belong to your ego, dear Joseph, though I understand as I speak that anyone on your plane identifies himself with his ego, and when he says “I am,” he means he is his ego, or his ego is.

[...] The ego enables you to use or focus your artistic ability along the lines necessary to make it effective on your plane. [...]

Mental enzymes, by the way, have a chemical effect or reaction on your plane, but the effect itself is, of course, distortion. On the other planes, the distortion effect may not be chemical at all. [...]

Your scientists are correct in supposing that the universe is composed of the same elements that can be found in your plane. [...]

[...] You approach a transmigration of plane.

The brain deals exclusively with camouflage patterns, while the mind deals with basic principles inherent on all planes. [...]

[...] Violence only ur plane. [...]

Sex has meaning in those terms only on your plane.

On your plane the law is such. [...]

Again, now think in terms of your plane, bounded by its small spindly set of wires, and my plane on the other side. [...] You cannot see through, but the two planes move through each other constantly.

[...] 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.

Again, if you will consider our maze of wires, I will ask you to imagine them filling up everything that is, with your plane and my plane like two small birds nests in the netlike fabric of some gigantic tree … Consider, for example, that these wires are also mobile, constantly trembling and also alive, in that they not only carry the stuff of the universe but are themselves projections of this stuff, and you will see how difficult it is to explain. [...]

[...] And if you consider the wires as forming cubes … then the cubes could also fit one within the other, without disturbing the inhabitants of either cube one iota — and these cubes are also within cubes, which are themselves within cubes, and I am speaking now only of the small particle of space taken up by your plane and mine.

[...] … Chlorophyll is a mental enzyme, however, and it is one of the moving forces in your plane. A variant exists in all other planes. [...]

As mental genes are behind the physical genes, so to speak, so are mental enzymes behind the physical stuff you can examine on your plane. [...]

[...] You both understand now that your plane is composed of solidified thought. [...]

[...] I must still respect many like frameworks in my own plane, but my understanding of them renders them less … opaque. [...]

On this plane you must work within certain limits. Man simply cannot use all his abilities on the earthly plane indiscriminately. [...]

[...] These powers to project realities of this sort, or pseudorealities of this sort, are meant to be suspended for all intents and purposes during the earth plane. [...]
