Session 581

Seth Speaks, Session 581

(“…Are these faster-than-light particles (tachyons) the same as, or like, the electromagnetic energy or EE units Seth discusses in the Appendix of The Seth Material?”)

I told you some time ago that there are man gradations of matte, of form, that you did not perceive.  In your terms many of these particles making up such constructions do move faster than the speed of your light.

Your light, again, represents only a portion of an even larger spectrum than that of which you know; and when your scientists study its properties, they can only investigate light as it intrudes into the three-dimensional system.  The same of course applies to a study of the structure of matter or form.

There are indeed universes composed of such faster-than-light particles.  Some of these in your terms share the same space as your own universe.  You simply would not perceive such particles as mass.  When these particles are slowed down sufficiently, you do experience them as matter.

Some of these particles drastically alter their velocity, appearing sometimes at you slower rate, usually in cyclic fashion.  The inner vortex of some such particles has a much greater velocity than the orbiting portions.  EE units are formed spontaneously from the electromagnetic reality of feelings emitted from each consciousness, as, for example, breath automatically goes out from the physical body.

EE units are, then, emanations from consciousness.  The intensity of the thought or emotion determines the characteristics of the units themselves.  As certain ranges are reached, they are propelled into physical actualization.  Whether or not this occurs in your terms, they will exit as small matter particles – as, say, latent matter or pseudomatter.

Some of these will fall into the faster-than-light groupings, and have a perceivable vitality within that framework.  These faster-than-light particles of course exist in their own kind of form then.  There are many ranges and great varieties of such units, all existing beyond your perceivable reach.  To lump them together in such a way, however, is misleading, for within all of this there is great order.

You are not utterly unaware of the existence of some of these units, though you do not experience them as mass.  You interpret some of them as events, dream events, so-called hallucinations; and sometimes certain ranges of these units are interpreted by you as movement-through-time.

All of them cast certain “atmospheric conditions” or reflections that color physical events as you know them.  Some of your own feelings are propelled into a reality within such systems, adopting within that framework their own mass and form.  In the creation and maintenance of your normal reality, you focus your daily waking consciousness so that it becomes effective within the ranges necessary.  Ideas and feeling that you want made physical carry within them the mechanisms that will put them in the proper range, well within the electromagnetic field necessary for physical development.

Your consciousness, however, is equipped to create realities in other fields as well.  Now in certain dreams and out-of-body experiences, your own consciousness moves faster than the speed of light, and under such conditions you are able to perceive some of these other forms of “mass or matter”.

The EE units are quite simply incipient forms of reality: seeds automatically given birth, suited for different environments, some appearing within the physical framework, and some not conforming at all to its prerequisites.  Now some systems of reality are “bounded” with centers of faster-than-light particles.  These begin to slow down at a rhythmic rate toward the peripheries, in your terms over great distances, until actually the outside slower particles to some extent imprison the center of masses even though they move much more quickly, but within a confined area.

The behaviors of such units, as you can now see, form the particular camouflage within any given system, while the peripheral activities effectively set up inner identities and outer boundaries.  These are all variations, generally speaking and very simply put, on matter as you think of it.  The same applies to negative or antimatter however, which you do not perceive in any case.  But the gradations of activity within such systems are as diverse.

Basically, however, no system is closed.  Energy flows freely from one to another, or rather permeates each.  It is only the camouflage structure that gives the impression of closed systems, and the law of inertia does not apply.  It appears to be a reality only within your own framework and because of your limited focus.

Now the duration and relative stability of such “matter” within other systems varies considerably, with intensity determining the strength of all such manifestations.  The invisible EE units form your physical matter and represent the essential and basic units from which any physical particle appears.

It will not be physically perceived.  You see only its results.  Since consciousness can travel faster than the speed of light, then when it is not imprisoned by the slower particles of the body it can become aware of some of these other realities.  Without training, however, it will not know how to interpret what it sees.  The physical brain is the mechanism by which thoughts or emotion is automatically formed into EE units of the proper range and intensity to be used by the physical organism.

These EE units, then, are the psychic building blocks of matter.

(“Are you in contact with, or speaking through any other humans as you are with Jane?”)

No.  As mentioned earlier in this book, I do contact some in other levels of reality, however.

("Is experiencing inner vibrational touch akin to reading an aura?")

No.  Inner vibrational touch is a much more personal experience, more like “becoming a part of” that which your perceive, rather than for example reading of an aura.

(“Does Jane ever prevent your coming through when you want to?”)

On several occasions I have communicated my willingness in particular circumstances.  I knew more about those circumstances than Ruburt.  Some of these occasions occurred fairly early in our sessions, when Ruburt was worried about spontaneous trances, so after making my presence known to him I acquiesced to his decision at the time.  On a few occasions certain conditions have been poor.  Usually Ruburt reacted to these adversely at his end – that is, the interference was such that it would bother his situation rather than mine.

(Many sessions ago, Seth told us he had a dog fragment personality still here on Earth.  He wouldn’t tell us where it was, though.  “Do you have any physical fragments of any kind still here on earth?”)

I do not now.  My dog is gone.

(“Are animals fragments of human beings?”)

It is a good question, and you had better give me a moment to explain it clearly.

In one manner of speaking, you are fragments of your entities.  Yet you consider yourselves quite independent, and not thrust-off second-handed selves; so dogs and other animals are not simply the manifestation of stray psychic energy on the part of human beings.

Animals have varying degrees of self-consciousness, as indeed people do.  The consciousness that is within them is as valid and eternal as your own, however.  There is nothing to prevent a personality from investing a portion of his own energy into an animal form.  This is not transmigration of souls.  It does not mean that a man can be reincarnated in an animal.  It does mean that personalities can send a portion of their energy into various kinds of form.

Perhaps reincarnations are over for a given individual, for example, yet within him is still some sense of yearning for the natural earth with which he has so often been involved.  So he may project a fragment of his consciousness in such a way into an animal form.  A man is not an animal, then, nor does he invade, say, the body of one.

He simply adds some of his energy to that present in the animal, mixing his vitality with the animal’s own.  This does not mean that all animals are fragments in this manner, however.  Animals, as any pet owner knows, have their own personalities and characteristics, and individual ways of perceiving the reality available to them.  Some gobble experience.  Their consciousness can be immeasurably quickened by contact with friendly humans, and emotional involvement with life is strongly developed.

The mechanics of consciousness remain the same.  They do not change for animals or men.  Therefore there are no limitations set upon the development of any individual consciousness, or growth of any identity.  Consciousness both in the body and without finds its own range, its own level.  A dog, then, is not limited to being a dog in other existences.

A certain level, again, of consciousness is necessary, a certain kind of knowledge, a certain understanding of energy organization before an identity can manipulate a complicated physical organism.

As you know, consciousness has a great tendency to maintain individuality, and yet to join in gestalts at the same time.  An animal consciousness after death may form such a gestalt with other such consciousnesses, in which abilities are pooled and the combined cooperation makes possible, for example, a change of species.

In these and other cases, however, the innate individuality is not lost but remains indelibly imprinted.  Consciousness must by its nature change, and so identities must also change – not one blotting out the other, but building upon it while each succeeding step is maintained and not discarded, you see.

In such interrelationships, the steps or identities are each immeasurably enriched by the added perception of the others.  As mentioned earlier, thoughts, containing their own electromagnetic reality, have form whether or not you perceive it.  With each thought, then, you send out from yourself shapes and images that can be quite legitimate realities to those within the system of reality into which they are propelled.

In the same way, personalities from other systems can send energy to yours.  Since such events do not originate within your system, you do not understand their import.
