Hi All,
To me, one of the most incredible concepts that Seth shared with the world is his explanation of how reality creation actually works. Along with this, there are some pretty interesting implications having to do with how this reality creation can impact us. Below, I’ve captured some interesting comments made by Seth along these lines. Then at the end of this page, I have a question for you about this topic.
Reality Creation:
As far as reality creation, (see The Early Sessions, Book 2, Session 68) basically, Seth says that it works like this; if Jane, Rob and their cat Willie, were in room with a chair, then there would be 3 rooms, one created by Jane, one created by Rob and one created by Willie. Furthermore, each one of these 3 rooms would contain Jane, Rob, Willie the cat, and the chair. I know this is incredible, right.
Seth also talks about reality creation in TES2: S63 (The Early Sessions, Book 2, Session 63). Here’s what Seth says in TES2: S63:
“I told you that without telepathy language would be meaningless and ineffective. It is true that each of you constructs his own physical universe, and responds to it. It is also true however, that through continuous telepathy you are acquainted with the ideas of others concerning their approximate physical universes; and while you construct and see your own, you also construct any given material object taking into consideration its approximate size, width, thickness and location, as received through telepathy from others.
Nevertheless, the objects are simply not the same objects. You do not see, feel, smell or touch the same object. I will shock you further by stating that, in your terms, the objects do not even exist in the same space, but in the personal self-perspective space, formed and created by any given individual.”
Objects like Chairs:
TES:2, S63:
“Almost every child suspects that at one time or another when his eyes are closed his immediate surroundings have disappeared. He supposes that when he does not see a chair the chair does not exist; and my dear friends, the boy in this case is smarter than the man.”
TES:2, S64:
“The chair, as constructed by Ruburt, is constructed constantly when he is in the room. It is partially constructed by him when he is in another room in your apartment.
When he is not at all concerned with the chair, he does not bother to construct it. He could be miles away, suddenly imagine this room, and instantly construct the chair. If he did, and someone else were present in the room, they would not see it, for you are only aware of your own constructions.”
So, I guess just like the child with his eyes closed, when we are somewhere else, like at a movie theatre, and we’re not thinking about it, what Seth is saying here is that we apparently don’t construct our place of residence. This is interesting.
Bumping into a Chair:
TES:2, S64:
“That same chair, so to speak, is constructed differently by everyone who enters your home. The question of its location in space is not difficult. Inner telepathic ground communication covers this very nicely. There are rather amusing slip-ups here that do occur, as when you bunk into a chair, for example. The fault here not being forgetful. It is remembering that causes the trouble.
(Here Jane smiled broadly.)
“You forget” (in quotes); that is, you forget to construct the chair in its correct location. If you continued to ignore the lapse of construction, you would not suffer the bruise. But you remember just in time, construct your chair where your knee is.”
I accidently shut the door on my finger yesterday. Ouch. Now, did I shut the door on my finger, or did I remember just in time and construct the door where my finger was.
The First Person to see an Object Creates the Initial Construction:
TES:2, S64:
“I was concerned at the time with other data. However we will go into this now. First, you and Philip and Ruburt, when you are all present in the room, each construct from energy your own physical materialization of the idea, television set.”
TES:2, S64:
“This needs brief explanation. If the three of you turn your attention to the set, the first one to consider it will form the so-called initial construction.”
The Hose or Snake:
TES:2, S64:
“Now, due to variations existing in the capacity of various individuals to receive, perceive, and act upon such information, no constructions are exactly the same, though generally they appear the same; and for utility’s sake they are effective enough.
Slip-ups can occur along any of the above mentioned lines. A thick black rubber hose in a backyard after dark for a moment actually becomes, or could become, to a timid soul a particularly vicious, ridiculously long and fat black snake.
This is not a case of a hose looking like a snake. This is a failure of a different sort, according to whether or not the constructor of the hose is present or still constructing his object. There is something here that I will explain. I have briefly mentioned before, I believe, what I will term an afterimage. When you cease active construction of an object, the pattern begins to fade but remains inactive.
Weak vibrations are present and can be perceived. Here we will imagine the weak pattern—form of the hose, and an individual perceiving the generalized pattern. There is a lack of further data, no telepathic message being perceived perhaps.
Going upon the little information at hand, given the darkness, fears come to the foreground. The individual actually constructs a snake, but a faulty impossible one, from the weak hose pattern. The snake, for reasons that we will discuss later, under these conditions could not exist in your universe.
If our individual calls for help, and if per chance the constructor of the hose answers the appeal, his hose construction would take precedence, filling its old pattern.”
Question:
Do you believe that this is how we actually create reality?
If not, what do you think occurs?
