“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(9:42.) Physicists think of atoms as particles. Their wavelike characteristics are not observed. At other levels of reality, atoms behave in a wavelike manner … Give us a moment … Subjectively, you will think of your own thoughts as waves rather than as particles. Yet in the dream level of reality those waves “break” into particles, so to speak. They form pseudo-objects from your viewpoint. While dreaming you accept that reality as real. Only upon awakening do the dream objects seem not-real, or imaginary. The nervous system itself is biologically equipped to perceive various gradations of physical matter, and there are “in-between” impulse passageways that are utilized while dreaming. From your point of view these are alternate passageways, but in the dream state they allow you to perceive as physical matter objects that in the waking state would not be observable.

The unknown self, the “original self,” straddles realities, dipping in and out of them in creative versions of itself, taking on the properties of the system in which it appears, and the characteristics native to that environment. Waves and particles are versions of other kinds of behavior taken by energy. Using that analogy, you flow in wavelike fashion into the physical particleized versions that you call corporal existences.

[...] She said her trance had been “pulsating” or wavelike: she would go “in” good, and then swing up closer to her usual state of consciousness. [...]

At other levels, while each individuality is maintained, it rides the wavelike formations of consciousness. [...]

[...] See Seth’s comments on the patterns of identity formed by consciousness, with their “particleized” and “wavelike” characteristics.

[...] (See notes 5 and 6 for Session 702.) They can operate in a freewheeling fashion as identities in themselves, or as ‘psychological particles.’ They can also operate in a wavelike fashion, flowing through other such particles. [...] Certain portions of these gestalts can then operate as ‘psychological particles’ in time and space, while other portions operate in a wavelike manner outside of time and space. [...]

Although these final paragraphs from the 775th session contain many ideas, I want to stress two of them that I find especially evocative: Seth’s reference to many reincarnations in one accepted lifetime, and the unconscious elements of the species being represented by its wavelike characteristics.
