- 0:06you
- 0:12Seth speaks the eternal validity of the
- 0:16soul by Jane Roberts read by Martin John
- 0:22continuation part 1 chapter 5
- 0:26how thoughts form matter coordination
- 0:30points give us a moment
- 0:34chapter 5 as you read the words upon
- 0:38this page you realize that the
- 0:41information that you are receiving is
- 0:44not an attribute of the letters of the
- 0:47words themselves the printed line does
- 0:51not contain information it transmits
- 0:55information where is the information
- 0:59that is being transmitted then if it is
- 1:03not upon the page the same question of
- 1:08course applies when you read a newspaper
- 1:10and when you speak to another person
- 1:14your actual words convey information
- 1:17feelings or thoughts
- 1:20obviously the thoughts or the feelings
- 1:23and the words are not the same thing the
- 1:27letters upon the page are symbols and
- 1:30you have agreed upon various meanings
- 1:33connected with them
- 1:35you take it for granted without even
- 1:38thinking of it that the symbols the
- 1:41letters are not the reality the
- 1:43information or thoughts which they
- 1:46attempt to convey now in the same way I
- 1:51am telling you that objects are also
- 1:54symbols that stand for reality whose
- 1:57meaning the objects like the letters
- 2:00transmit the true information is not in
- 2:04the objects anymore then the thought is
- 2:08in the letters or in words words are
- 2:13methods of expression so are physical
- 2:17objects in a different kind of medium
- 2:20you are used to the idea that you
- 2:23express yourselves direct
- 2:25léa through words you can hear yourself
- 2:29speak them you can feel the muscles in
- 2:33your throat move and if you are aware
- 2:36you can perceive multitudinous reactions
- 2:40within your own body actions that all
- 2:44accompany your speech physical objects
- 2:49are the result of another kind of
- 2:52expression you create them as surely as
- 2:56you create words I do not mean that you
- 3:00create them with your hands alone or
- 3:05through manufacture I mean that objects
- 3:09are natural byproducts of the evolution
- 3:13of your species even as words are
- 3:17examine for a moment your knowledge of
- 3:21your own speech however though you hear
- 3:25the words and recognize their
- 3:29appropriateness and though they may more
- 3:32or less approximate an expression of
- 3:35your feeling they are not your feeling
- 3:38and there must be a gap between your
- 3:42thought and your expression of it the
- 3:46familiarity of speech begins to vanish
- 3:49when you realize that you yourself when
- 3:53you begin a sentence do not know
- 3:55precisely how you will end it or even
- 3:59how you form the words you do not
- 4:03consciously know how you manipulate a
- 4:06staggering pyramid of symbols picking
- 4:09from them precisely those you need to
- 4:13express a given thought for that matter
- 4:16you do not know how you think you do not
- 4:20know how you translate these symbols
- 4:23upon this page into thoughts and then
- 4:26store them or make them your own
- 4:29since the mechanisms of normal speech
- 4:31are so little known to you on a
- 4:34conscious level then it is not
- 4:36surprising that you are equal
- 4:38unaware of more complicated tasks that
- 4:42you also perform such as the constant
- 4:45creation of your physical environment as
- 4:48a method of communication and expression
- 4:51it is only from this viewpoint that the
- 4:55true nature of physical matter can be
- 4:57understood it is only by comprehending
- 5:01the nature of this constant translation
- 5:04of thoughts and desires not into words
- 5:08now but into physical objects that you
- 5:12can realize your true independence from
- 5:16circumstance time and environment
- 5:19now you may take a break smile a note I
- 5:26am very pleased I am pleased with the
- 5:30beginning of my chapter for I think I
- 5:33have hit upon an analogy and a true one
- 5:36that will release the reader from the
- 5:39artificial bondage of physical form when
- 5:43he sees it as a method of his own
- 5:46expression he will realize his own
- 5:49creative Annis now it is easy to see
- 5:57that you translate feelings into words
- 6:00or bodily expressions and gestures but
- 6:04not quite as easy to realize that you
- 6:07form your physical body as effortlessly
- 6:11and unselfish self-consciously
- 6:15as you translate feelings into symbols
- 6:18that become words you have heard the
- 6:23expression before I am sure that the
- 6:26environment expresses a particular
- 6:29individual personality I'm telling you
- 6:32that this is a literal and not symbolic
- 6:37truth the letters upon the page have the
- 6:42reality only of ink and paper the
- 6:45information they convey is invisible as
- 6:49an object this book itself is on
- 6:52paper and ink it is a carrier of
- 6:56information you may perhaps argue that
- 7:00the book was manufactured physically and
- 7:03did not suddenly erupt through Rupert's
- 7:06skull already printed and bound you in
- 7:10turn had to borrow or purchase the book
- 7:13so you may think surely I did not create
- 7:17the book as I created my words but
- 7:21before we are finished we will see that
- 7:24basically speaking each of you create
- 7:27the book you hold in your hands and that
- 7:31your entire physical environment comes
- 7:34as naturally out of your inner mind as
- 7:37words come out of your mouths and that
- 7:42man forms physical objects as
- 7:45unselfconsciously and as automatically
- 7:49as he forms his own breath end of
- 7:53dictation for this evening
- 7:55smile session 524 April 20 1979 18 p.m.
- 8:05Monday the peculiar particular aspects
- 8:10of your physical world are dependent
- 8:13upon your existence and focus within it
- 8:16the physical universe does not contain
- 8:20physical objects of solidity width and
- 8:23depth for example to those who existence
- 8:27is not within it other kinds of
- 8:30consciousness coexist within the same
- 8:33space that your world inhabits they do
- 8:38not perceive your physical objects for
- 8:41their reality is composed of a different
- 8:44camouflage structure you do not perceive
- 8:48them and generally speaking they do not
- 8:51perceive you this is a general statement
- 8:55however for various points of your
- 8:59realities can and do coincide so to
- 9:03speak these points are
- 9:06recognized as such but they are points
- 9:10of what you would call double reality
- 9:14containing great energy potential
- 9:17coordinate points indeed where realities
- 9:20merge there are main coordinate points
- 9:25peer mathematically sources of fantastic
- 9:29energy and subordinate coordinate points
- 9:33vast in number there are four absolute
- 9:39coordinate points that intersect all
- 9:41realities these coordinate points also
- 9:45act as channels through which energy
- 9:48flows and as warps or invisible paths
- 9:53from one reality to another they also
- 9:57act as transformers and provide much of
- 10:01the generating energy that makes
- 10:04creation continuous in your terms your
- 10:09space is filled with these sub ordinate
- 10:13points and as you will see later these
- 10:16are important in allowing you to
- 10:19transform thoughts and emotions into
- 10:22physical matter when a thought or
- 10:25emotion attains a certain intensity it
- 10:28automatically attracts the power of one
- 10:32of these subordinate points and is
- 10:35therefore highly charged and in one way
- 10:38magnified though not in size these
- 10:43points impinge upon what you call time
- 10:46as well as space there are certain
- 10:50points in time and space therefore again
- 10:54in your terms that are more conductive
- 10:58than others where both ideas and matters
- 11:01will be more highly charged practically
- 11:05speaking this means that buildings will
- 11:09last longer in your context that ideas
- 11:13wedded to form will be relatively
- 11:16eternal the pyramids for
- 11:19example are a case in point these
- 11:22coordinate points absolute main or
- 11:25subordinate represent accumulations or
- 11:29traces of pure energy my newt to an
- 11:33extreme if you are thinking in terms of
- 11:35size smaller than any particle of which
- 11:39your scientists know for example but
- 11:42composed of pure energy and yet this
- 11:45energy must be activated it is dormant
- 11:49until then and it cannot be activated
- 11:52physically a few clues here that might
- 11:57help you or mathematicians there is an
- 12:02ever so minut alteration of gravity
- 12:06forces in the neighborhood of all these
- 12:09points even of the subordinate ones and
- 12:13all the so-called physical laws to some
- 12:17extent or another will be found to have
- 12:20a wavering effect in these neighborhoods
- 12:24the subordinate points also serve in a
- 12:28way as supports as structural
- 12:32intensification x' within the unseen
- 12:36fabric of energy that forms all
- 12:39realities and manifestations while they
- 12:43are traces or accumulations of pure
- 12:46energy there is a great difference
- 12:48between the amount of energy available
- 12:50in the various subordinate points and
- 12:53between the main and the absolute points
- 12:56you may take your break these are points
- 13:04therefore of concentrated energy the
- 13:08subordinate points are far more common
- 13:11and practically as speaking affect your
- 13:14daily concerns there are better places
- 13:17and others to build houses or structures
- 13:22points where health and vitality are
- 13:26strengthened where other things being
- 13:29equal plants will
- 13:31grow and flourish and we're all
- 13:34beneficial conditions seem to meet some
- 13:38people can sense such neighborhoods
- 13:41instinctively
- 13:42they occur within certain angles made by
- 13:45coordinate points the points obviously
- 13:49are not themselves physical that is they
- 13:53are not visible though they may be
- 13:56mathematically deduced they are felt
- 14:00however as intensified energy in a given
- 14:05room plants will grow more effectively
- 14:09in a particular area than in other areas
- 14:12providing that both areas contain such
- 14:15necessary requirements as light all of
- 14:18your space is permeated by these
- 14:21coordination points so that certain
- 14:24invisible angles are formed this is
- 14:29highly simplified but some angles will
- 14:32be more on the outskirts than others and
- 14:37will be less favorable for all
- 14:39conditions of growth and activity in
- 14:42speaking of these angles we will treat
- 14:45them as three-dimensional though they
- 14:48are of course multi-dimensional since
- 14:51the nature of these angles is not the
- 14:53main topic of my book it is not possible
- 14:56to explain them thoroughly here they
- 15:00will seem to be stronger during certain
- 15:02times than other times though these
- 15:06differences have nothing to do with
- 15:09either the nature of coordinate points
- 15:12or with the nature of time other
- 15:15elements affect them but we need not be
- 15:18concerned with fees now the concentrated
- 15:23energy points are activated by emotional
- 15:26intensities that are well within your
- 15:29normal range your own emotions or
- 15:32feelings will activate these coordinates
- 15:36whether you know of them or not greater
- 15:40energy will therefore be added to the
- 15:42original thought or fee
- 15:44and it's projection into physical matter
- 15:48accelerated now this applies regardless
- 15:51of the nature of the feeling only its
- 15:55intensity is involved here these points
- 15:59are like invisible power plants in other
- 16:03words activated when any emotional
- 16:06feeling or thought of sufficient
- 16:08intensity comes into contact the points
- 16:11themselves intensify whatever activates
- 16:14them in a quite neutral manner we are
- 16:19rather slow with this material since it
- 16:22is new but mainly because I would like
- 16:25it translated into as precise terms as
- 16:29possible and without a scientific
- 16:32background on Rupert's part I must use
- 16:35ingenuity you may take a break this is
- 16:42highly simplified but the subjective
- 16:44experience of any consciousness is
- 16:47automatically expressed as
- 16:49electromagnetic energy units these exist
- 16:53beneath the range of physical matter
- 16:56they are if you prefer incident
- 17:00particles that have not yet emerged into
- 17:04matter these units are natural
- 17:06emanations from all kinds of
- 17:09consciousness they are the invisible
- 17:12formations resulting from reaction to
- 17:16any kind of stimuli they very seldom
- 17:19exists in isolation but unite under
- 17:23certain laws they change both their form
- 17:28and their pulsation their relative
- 17:31duration depends upon the original
- 17:34intensity behind them that is behind the
- 17:37original thought emotion stimuli or
- 17:41reaction that brought them into being
- 17:45again highly simplified here under
- 17:48certain conditions those coagulate into
- 17:51matter those electromagnetic units of
- 17:56high enough
- 17:58intensity automatically activate the
- 18:00subordinate coordinate points of which I
- 18:03have spoken they are therefore
- 18:06accelerating and propelled into matter
- 18:09far more quickly in your terms than
- 18:13units of lesser intensity molecules
- 18:17would appear as large as planets to
- 18:21these units atoms and molecules and
- 18:25planets and these electromagnetic energy
- 18:27units are simply different
- 18:30manifestations of the same principles
- 18:33that bring the units themselves into
- 18:36being it is only your relative position
- 18:39your focus within an apparent space and
- 18:43time that makes this seem so unlikely
- 18:47each thought or motion therefore exists
- 18:51as an electromagnetic energy unit or as
- 18:55a combination of these under certain
- 18:58conditions and often with the help of
- 19:02coordinate points they emerge into the
- 19:05building blocks of physical matter this
- 19:08emergence into matter occurs as a
- 19:11neutral result regardless of the nature
- 19:15of any given thought or motion mental
- 19:19images accompanied by strong emotion are
- 19:23blueprints therefore upon which a
- 19:26corresponding physical object or
- 19:29condition or event will in your terms
- 19:33appear end of dictation do you have any
- 19:37questions we are doing very well with
- 19:40our chapter 5 my heartiest regards and a
- 19:44fond good evening session 525 April 22
- 19:511979 14 p.m. Wednesday the intensity of
- 19:57a feeling or thought or mental image is
- 20:00therefore the important element in
- 20:03determining its subsequent physical
- 20:07materialization the intensity is the
- 20:10core
- 20:11about which the electromagnetic energy
- 20:13units form in your terms the more
- 20:17intense the core the sooner the physical
- 20:21materialization this would apply whether
- 20:24in the mental image was a fearful one or
- 20:27a joyful one now there is a very
- 20:30important problem here if your turn of
- 20:33mind is highly intense and you think in
- 20:37vivid mental emotional images these will
- 20:41be swiftly formed into physical events
- 20:44if you are also of a highly pessimistic
- 20:49nature given two thoughts and feelings
- 20:53of potential disaster then these
- 20:56thoughts will be quite faithfully
- 20:58reproduced in experience the more
- 21:03intense your imagination and inner
- 21:06experience therefore the more important
- 21:09it is that you realize the methods by
- 21:12which this inner experience becomes
- 21:15physically real your thoughts and
- 21:18emotions begin their journey into
- 21:21physical actualization at the moment of
- 21:25conception if you happen to live in an
- 21:28area where the coordinate environment is
- 21:31strong one of those areas have spoken of
- 21:34as usually conductive then it will seem
- 21:38that you are deluged by illnesses or
- 21:41disasters if these are the nature of
- 21:45your thoughts because all thought is so
- 21:48fertile in this environment if on the
- 21:52other hand your feelings and subjective
- 21:55experience are fairly well balanced
- 21:57fairly optimistic and creative in a
- 22:01constructive manner then it will seem to
- 22:04you that you have been blessed with
- 22:06unusual luck for your pleasant
- 22:10suppositions will come to pass so
- 22:13quickly briefly in your own country the
- 22:18West Coast portions of the East Coast
- 22:21Utah the Great Lakes
- 22:24the Chicago area Minneapolis area and
- 22:28some other southwestern areas are in
- 22:32those neighborhoods of excellent
- 22:34coordinate activity for the reasons
- 22:37given materialisation will quickly
- 22:41appear and potentials
- 22:43therefore for both constructive and
- 22:46destructive elements are high give us a
- 22:51moment these coordinate points
- 22:55themselves activate the behavior of
- 22:58atoms and molecules as say for example
- 23:03the Sun aids the growth of plants the
- 23:08coordinates activate the generating
- 23:10behaviour of atoms and molecules and
- 23:13greatly encourage their cooperative
- 23:16abilities their tendency to swarm so to
- 23:21speak into organizations and structural
- 23:25groupings the coordinate points magnify
- 23:30or intensify the behavior the latent
- 23:34spontaneity inherent within the
- 23:38properties of physical matter
- 23:41they act as psychic generators
- 23:45propelling what is not yet physical into
- 23:49physical form
- 23:51now you may take your break this is not
- 23:55to be a technical book so this is not
- 23:59the time nor place to discuss thoroughly
- 24:02the action behavior or effects of these
- 24:06coordinate points nor of the
- 24:10electromagnetic energy units those
- 24:13natural man CA shion's of consciousness
- 24:17with which I spoke I wanted known
- 24:20however that thoughts and emotions are
- 24:24formed into physical matter by very
- 24:26definite methods and through laws quite
- 24:30valid though they may be presently
- 24:34unknown
- 24:35in other portions of the Seth material
- 24:39these processes will be made very clear
- 24:42for those of you who desire to pursue
- 24:45the question further or those who may be
- 24:49interested from a scientific point of
- 24:52view here we are discussing such issues
- 24:56only because they touch upon the
- 24:59multi-dimensional aspect of personality
- 25:02they allow you to materialize certain
- 25:05subjective experiences into
- 25:08three-dimensional reality before I leave
- 25:11the subject however let me remind you
- 25:15that these immense ations in varying
- 25:18degrees rise from all consciousness not
- 25:23simply around this includes cellular
- 25:26consciousness as well so that an
- 25:29invisible network of electromagnetic
- 25:32units pervades your entire atmosphere
- 25:35and upon this WebWork and from it the
- 25:40particles of physical matter are then
- 25:42formed a whole book could easily be
- 25:47written upon this subject information
- 25:50regarding the locations of main and
- 25:54absolute coordinate points could be
- 25:57highly advantageous for example you
- 26:00pride yourself on your technology and
- 26:03the production of durable goods
- 26:06buildings and roads yet many of these
- 26:09are insignificant when compared to other
- 26:13structures within the past a true
- 26:18understanding of the wind which an idea
- 26:21becomes physical matter would result in
- 26:24a complete revamping of your so-called
- 26:27modern technology and in buildings roads
- 26:32and other structures that would far
- 26:34outlast those you now have while the
- 26:39psychic reality behind physical matter
- 26:42is ignored then you cannot use those
- 26:46methods effectively
- 26:48do exist nor can you take advantage of
- 26:51them you cannot understand the psychic
- 26:55reality that is the true impetus of your
- 26:59physical existence unless you first
- 27:03realize your own psychic reality and
- 27:06independence from physical laws my first
- 27:11purpose therefore is to make you aware
- 27:14of the inner identity of which you are
- 27:17part and to clear away some of the
- 27:21intellectual and superstitious Tabriz
- 27:25that prevents you from recognizing your
- 27:28own potentialities and freedom then
- 27:32perhaps you can begin to learn the many
- 27:34ways in which that freedom can be used
- 27:38that is the end of dictation it may well
- 27:42be the end of chapter 5 peace light and
- 27:46love alone
