Seth Early Sessions, Vol 8, Session 407
Challenges In Expressing Inner Reality Concepts
You must understand that in a good measure
much of our material is an attempt to put into words concepts and ideas that
are far too vast for any such translation.
The laws of the universe, of the inner
universe, for example, are not laws in some book. Such laws that might be proclaimed in so many
words. They are attempts to explain in
words the nature of the inner reality that forms All That Is. I must disentangle concepts, unravel them, in
order to explain them, and much is necessarily lost in the process.
I do intend to implement this material
whenever possible by helping you both achieve subjective experiences that will
fill out the words for you. These will
vary according to the circumstances and our conditions, but are much more
possible now after the sessions’ latest development.
Each simple law of the inner universe that
I have given you is in actuality a small and inadequate statement in
single-dimensional terms. Yet it is more
than most are given, and the best approximation that can be made of the basic
facts that are beneath any existence, the best statement that can be made under
the circumstances under which we work.
As words would tell little, or give small
hint of the reality of sound or color to someone who did not experience these,
so the words used can only give insight into the nature of reality. I hope through the addition of various
subjective experiences in the sessions to give you the feel of concepts when
this is possible.
The inner senses to some extent will allow
you to perceive the reality of inner existence, and Ruburt incidentally in this
new development is involved with the use of these inner senses in a more
effective manner than before. There are
some changes in the way connections are made.
This gives Ruburt a feeling of strangeness as he makes inner
adjustments.
He is now soaking up energy, so to speak,
within his physical system as a sponge soaks up water. He is using the new energy where he feels he
needs it most, which is quite legitimate.
He has been reading various sections of the
material, including portions having to do with the ego, personality and action,
and you see attempted to set himself aside from the action in which his whole
personality was intimately involved. As
impossible [to do] as the ego’s general attempt to insist upon some sort of
permanent, unchanging, stable identity, since it is composed of action.
One portion of the personality therefore
set itself aside and therefore was unable to use the abilities and energies
inherent in the personality as a whole, constructively; and erecting barriers
in one respect, the barriers were erected in all important regards.
He is warm physically now; again the energy
available during the session is being largely utilized by his psychic and
physical system. It was not possible in
the past. The barriers to the energy
have been let down, the action no longer impeded. The energy is rushing into these areas that
have been hungering for it, you see. The
system filling itself up, so to speak, and replenishing itself.
The task upon which Ruburt will embark will
be performed with zest, for the physical system will be replenished and
adequately supplied. There is a change
in blood count going on, an imbalance corrected, a decrease in white cells, and
a bodybuilding process at work.
Again, this is simply a rushing in of
energy where it was most needed, once the barriers have been removed. This is a natural reaction. Whenever the ego gains over-control, or sets
itself up to oppose the deep and basic action within the whole personality,
then in doing so it also blocks to some considerable extent the passage or use
of the whole personality’s vital energy.
The physical system suffers. It is impossible for the ego to block off
specific connections with the whole personality, therefore any barriers
effectively impede whole blocks of active and necessary vitality. In Ruburt’s case now, the floodgates to the
inner self are opened, so that the vitality rushes into those areas that have
been to some extent denied.
The Seth Personality
The Seth personality has been an intermediary,
and a legitimate one. The information
already given to you regarding the nature of personality gestalts should make
this development seem indeed a fitting one.
Seth is what I am, and yet I am more than
Seth is. Seth is however independent and
continues to develop as I continue to develop also. In the spacious present you see, we both
exist.
Some material he can present to you more
clearly than I. This was particularly
true up to this present point. He is
closer to you in personality makeup and closer to your reality, therefore he
could transmit ideas to Ruburt in more understandable terms than I.
There was a point, you see, of
interpretation and translation as Seth interpreted material from me in such a
way that Ruburt could then receive it. At our last session, with the greater
efficiency and the development on Ruburt’s part, the material was more direct,
and the translation at this end automatic and smoothly performed.
While I was the source of the material,
Seth as you think of him was at times a silent partner, helping Ruburt make the
proper translations while standing aside in a personal manner. There are various mechanics that still must
be worked out, that will develop naturally as the sessions continue. Perhaps a brief adjustment period as various
methods are tried. Seth will always be
an element in the sessions as you know him.
He is the connective between us, and he has been a part of me that I
have sent out to you. He has gone
willingly.
All divisions are to some extent arbitrary. The source of this material is the
same as it has always been.
I, who am the source, sent a portion of
myself, an independent portion, to you.
Seth as you then thought of him, was far more than a delivery boy
however, for it was his peculiar personality, and his particular qualities,
which gave the material life for you.
He transmitted it in personal terms, made
it understandable through the transmutation of himself.
You have always been then in contact with
me, but you were only able to see a portion of me. Keep in mind that all names are arbitrary,
and we use them merely for your convenience, as we use words. Basically, Seth’s name or mine isn’t
important. Individuality is important,
and continues in ways you barely suspect.
In one way, in the most important way, and
in the only basic way, I am Seth, dispensing with certain characteristics which
are mine which I used to contact you.
The Seth personality again, as you
understand it, is legitimate and independent, a legitimate and independent personality
which is a part of my identity. Seth is
also learning and developing, as I am.
Simply, as an analogy, and only as
an analogy, I am what you would refer to as a future Seth, as Seth in a quote
“higher” stage of development. This is
not to be taken literally however, since both of us are fully independent, and
exist simultaneously.
You have already been told that connections
exist between you and Seth as you have known him. Therefore it is apparent that connections
exist between us also, and that this development is a natural one. The apex point in Ruburt’s personality is an
extremely fortunate and unusual one, and the reason that such communications
can take place.
You (to
me), are also necessary however, and as I intend to develop a discussion
concerning such communications, you will be able to see your own position more
clearly.
Regardless of the apex point however,
attraction operates, and there are reasons why these particular
connections have been made rather than others.
There are events that unite us and that have served as turning points in
the development of our various personalities.
In some strange manner, what I am, now, is linked to what you are.
There are points of contact having nothing
to do with time as you know it, that are extremely significant to all
personalities, origins of new energy that are sometimes suddenly brought into
existence because of the strong, latent psychic capacities within
individual selves.
At these particular points whole
conglomerations of new self units come into being, their origin sparked as
given in the last sentence. They then
disperse and go their own ways, but the mutual origin and the strength of that
initial psychic birth remain.
They may develop in entirely different
fashions and in various dimensions, but a strong sympathetic attraction exists
between them. There is a point of
contact where knowledge can be communicated from these various dimensions; and
for too many reasons to give you now, Ruburt is precisely in proper coordinates
for such communication to take place.
This communication, while taking place in
your time, and in your present, is nevertheless partially responsible in other
dimensions for what you would call future developments in your own
personalities, which you can now in turn contact. This is partially what I am, far more than
you are, or that Seth is as you thought of him.
I look back on you as the selves from which
I sprang, and yet I am more than the sum of what you will be when you are
finished with the other dimensions and times that I have known. For I have sprung entirely away from you, and
would be alien in your terms. That you
can even contact me, is a most remarkable development. Yet had you not been able to contact me I
would not be what I am.
I am far more however than this portion of
me that you contact, for it is only one portion of me that experienced that
reality. It is highly important that the
material not be distorted then, for most communications take place on far
different levels than this, so closely connected with your own system that even
the most undistorted material is highly distorted, because the communicators
themselves are so closely involved with camouflages, and do not realize that
they create the realities which they then describe.
I have done my best to give you an understanding
as a basis for our future sessions. Seth
as you knew him will also be Seth as you know him; for whether or not I speak as
myself or through him, as you think of him, he is still the intermediary and the
connection between us, and he will help transmit energy; but more, he will also
appear as himself as you have known him. There are necessary emotional elements that are
uniquely his own. My personality structure
is far different – very rewarding to me, but very unfamiliar to you. You will understand him better emotionally, and
need, I believe, that strong connection.
I do not want you to feel I have taken away
a friend. I am also a friend. In many ways I am the same friend. Still, only a small portion of what I am speaks
to you now. Other portions of me are concerned
elsewhere, for I am aware of my own existence in other dimensions, and keep track
of them, and direct my many selves.
