“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A system of checks and balances exists, however, so that in certain dreams you are made aware of these blueprints. [...]

(A note: Those who are interested in material on the fluctuations of consciousness can refer to the following sessions in Seth Speaks: the 567th session in Chapter Sixteen, on the phasing of atoms in and out of our system; the 576th session in Chapter Nineteen, on alternate presents; and the ESP class session for June 23, 1970, in the Appendix, on organization in our present reality. [...]

1. Seth has some material analogous to this in the 582nd session in Chapter Twenty of Seth Speaks: “What you perceive of time is a portion of other events intruding into your own system, often interpreted as movement in space….” [...]

[...] Now in such a case, often the illness represents a new unifying system. If the old unifying system of personality has broken down, the illness, serving as a makeshift, temporary emergency measure may hold the integrity of the personality intact until a new constructive, unifying principle replaces the original.

[...] The energies appear concentrated and turned inward, affecting the whole system. [...]

[...] It is obvious, then, that less energy is available for actions more beneficial to the personality system as a whole.

[...] It obviously becomes part of the personality’s psychological structure, the physical, electrical and chemical structures, invading to some extent even the dream system.

A closed system could become captured, so to speak, and be used as a building block, still retaining its individuality, by other systems still expanding. In this manner your physical universe, dream universe, and universe of negative matter have come together, while retaining their boundaries as a more or less closed system.

[...] Remember last session’s explanation of mental enclosures, composed of inward, individualized, aware energy, materializing itself in physical form, and at a particular point closing off and becoming more or less a closed system.

You will have to understand that I speak for simplicity’s sake, since no system is completely closed. [...]

For practical reasons for our discussion, we will speak of these universes forming a closed system.

They maintain their inner knowledge and integrity, and are born within any given system. They always use their native abilities and talents to help the system, working very strongly in psychic or creative endeavors.

There were then visits from others in other planetary systems. [...]

[...] It is not a point of them trying to invade a native stock; they simply understood the nature of individual existences, therefore they are able to choose from various physical systems those in which they would like to have experience.

[...] You do this now without knowing that you do so, but a body can be made from the camouflage of any system, constructed easily when you know how to do it.

[...] It is not a closed spiritual or psychic system. [...]

[...] When you think of the soul as a closed system you perceive it as such, and close off from yourself the knowledge of its greater creativity and characteristics.

[...] That point actually represents a warp in dimensions, a place between systems that has far more to do with energy and psychological reality than it has to do with space, for space is meaningless.

[...] These minglings of reality and experience, these messages from one system to another, occur in various ways continually, emerging in your world in one guise or another — as inspiration of many kinds. [...]

Seth has always maintained that there are no closed systems, that energy is constantly exchanged between them, regardless of whether such transfers can be detected. (In Volume 1, see Session 688, plus Note 2 for the same session.) The second law of thermodynamics, on the other hand, tell us that our universe is a closed system — and that it’s fated to eventually run down because the amount of energy available for useful work is always decreasing, even though the supply of that energy is constant. [...]

I think it obvious that by “energy transformation” Seth doesn’t mean that the energy (or consciousness, to my way of thinking) in our system is inevitably decreasing. I can best express it intuitively: In physics, that well-known second law of thermodynamics may usually be so reliable for us, distorted as it is, just because of our limited physical interpretation as mediated by the central nervous system.

[...] Interpretation of old and new together calls for a system of constant correlations, then, and I use that approach as often as I can.

[...] Both are quite handy, and both are methods of telling stories, and both might seem to agree within their own systems, and yet, in larger respects they cannot be realities….

[...] Thus giving the creative inner self the time and opportunity to let the entire physical system accelerate its own healing processes, and to begin again with the initiation of impulses, dreams, and so forth that will help bring a physical improvement about. [...]

[...] And it is the entire system that will clear itself. [...]

(9:10.) A concentration upon painting, or developments about the home, with as many diversions as possible will also help, again, so that the entire personality can activate the entire system for healing processes. [...]

(Long pause.) The more stimuli, thoughts, desires and material of a diverse nature brought into the system—within reason—the greater the amount of material the inner self has to work with and put together in its own creative fashions—but do remember those sessions given that remind Ruburt that his body can indeed recover, that he can indeed trust his body’s processes, and that he should not compare his life with anyone else’s, but trust in the entire fabric of his existence, and you indeed should trust the entire fabric of your own. [...]

[...] The environment, the methods of perception, the reality system within each room is unique.

[...] I mentioned earlier that in one probability system you were a doctor who painted as a hobby. [...]

He will be perfectly able to manipulate in his own system while he is gone. [...]

[...] He should be able to take you there in a projection, and from that point you should be able to look down into your own system, and in a series of flashes to see your life and Ruburt’s with greater clarity. [...]

Communicating with your system in such a manner demands great diligence and greater discrimination, according to the “distance” of the communicator from the physical system. I am not based within the physical system, for example. [...]

The greatest Speakers do not only translate and communicate inner data, but also go much further into these inner realms of reality than others connected with your physical system. [...]

(11:00.) Some of the events that I see connected very clearly with these persons in the future may not, in your physical system, occur. [...]

[...] You must be free enough to explore the nature and experience of each living thing within your own system, knowing that it is yourself, and then leave your system. [...]

“But I can’t leave the system because I am in all systems simultaneously.”

[...] First there must be a period, and then it has passed, when you are completely immersed in a given system as if no other existed; value fulfillment as a rule being achieved in this manner. This does not mean that you are not dwelling in other systems simultaneously. [...]

“I am speaking in your physical terms … but even in those terms, you are still dealing with other systems.”

[...] There is what might be called a residue, or debris energy, “coating” the cell, that stays within this system. None of this can be ascertained from within the system — that is, the initial faster-than-light activity or the deceleration afterward. [...]

[...] Those disturbances are the result of a slowing down of prior effects of faster-than-light activity, and represent the emergence into your space-time system of energy that can then be effectively used and formed into the cellular pattern.

(9:48.) Such a traveling consciousness may journey within physical reality, colon: While not relating to that system in the usual manner, it may still be allied with it. [...]

[...] It becomes probable in your system but seeks its own “level,” and becomes actualized as it falls into place in another reality whose “coded sequence” fits its own. [...]

(Jane and I had a discussion concerning the questions I have compiled to ask Seth, via our new system, before sessions, hence our getting started late. [...]

[...] My original question, which Seth has been discussing ever since, was: “What does the new personality, the larger Seth, think of our time system? [...]

[...] It projects limitations upon other systems of reality that do not exist. [...]

[...] Now to a portion of the personality believing in that system, Ruburt’s position makes hardly a ripple. That system regards the body as highly distracting, disruptive, heir to the lusts of the flesh, and so forth. [...]

When memories come concerning his background, then these can be used to provide a necessary feedback system. [...]

[...] (Pause.) It approves of inspiration, but it is the part of the personality that is also afraid of unofficial information because of the very belief system that gave it birth. [...]

[...] To one extent or another, these three systems of consciousness operate in one way or another in all of the species, and in all particles, in the physical universe. In your terms, this means that the proportions of the three systems might vary, but they are always in operation, whether we are speaking of a man or a woman, a rock or a fly, a star or an atom. [...]

[...] (Pause.) The body consciousness is not “unconscious,” but for working purposes in your terms, [the body] possesses its own system of consciousness that to some extent, now (underlined), is separated from what you think of as your own normal consciousness. [...]

[...] They are like three different systems of consciousness operating together to form the whole. [...]

There seems to be a drug you are taking into your own system that is going against your system. [...]

[...] You should imagine in your spare moments, even driving, that poisonous fluids are disappearing from your system and leaving it free. [...] The fluids are not in themselves poisonous, only their retention that makes them act upon your system.

[...] John Bradley said at first that he knew of nothing he is taking into his system that would encourage fluid retention. [...]

[...] Within your system you activate certain elements... [...]

[...] “In the spontaneous working of your nervous system, what do we find? [...] And yet all of this rests upon the spontaneous workings of the inner self, and the nervous system of which the intellect knows little. [...]

[...] In such a case, the illness actually represents a new unifying system. Now, if the old unifying system of the personality is broken down, the illness serving as a makeshift temporary emergency measure may hold the integrity of the personality intact until a new, constructive unifying principle replaces the original.

[...] Daily life contained all kinds of threats for her, and she kept her nervous system in a constant state of stress. [...]

[...] Your nervous system knows how to react. [...]

“An energy personality who wishes to become a part of your system does so using this sense. [...] Since entry into your plane or system, as a member of it, cannot be made in any other manner, it must be made in the simplest terms, and later built up—sperm, of course, being an entry in this respect. [...]

[...] This inner data is transmitted through the mental genetic system by way of the generalized molecular consciousness to the chromosome system, and the chromosome system then translates data into a physical code for the cells to follow. [...]

However, the mental system that parallels the chromosome system carries in condensed form within the atoms generalized consciousness, data that has been transmitted to it by the entity. [...]

[...] Here it is the purpose of this mental genetic code system to maintain such purpose and data. [...]

[...] At best your scientists will only discover more of these camouflage patterns, but the entire system will simply not be perceived by any one species, and you will never perceive camouflage patterns outside of your own patterns. [...]

Simultaneously all of these inhibited reactions seek release, for the manifestation of aggressive feelings sets up natural balances within the body itself, as well as serving as a communication system with others. When his system has had enough, our friend may then indeed react with violent behavior. [...]

[...] In all cases the clues to your emotional experience and behavior lie in your systems of belief: some more evident to you than others, but all available to you consciously. [...]

[...] Because he is trying to be so understanding our man inhibits the expression of many of the normal irritations that would serve as a natural system of communication between, say, his superior and himself at work, or perhaps with the members of his family at home.

[...] You accept only those ideas and thoughts that fit in with your own system of beliefs, and even then there are various safeguards. [...]

[...] These perceptors operate quite independently from those that might be assumed when a given consciousness adopts a specialized form, such as a physical body, in order to operate in a particular system.

Now, I project a portion of my reality as I dictate this book to an undifferentiated level between systems that is relatively clear of camouflage. [...]

[...] This applies to anything within the physical system that you know.
