Description

Session 64 from The Early Sessions Book 2 of the Seth Material, recorded on the evening of June 24, 1964.

The Cat, The Bug, and The Cosmic Interruption

Seth, ever the gracious entity, uses this moment as a profound teaching opportunity, explaining that "it is not only wise but advantageous to help any living creature, regardless of its stature in your scheme of things." This small act of compassion becomes the launchpad for one of Seth's most chilling and expansive concepts.

You Don't See What I See: The Reality of Individual Constructions

The core revelation: there is no single, objective physical world that everyone perceives identically. Instead, each conscious being—human, cat, or bug—creates its own unique "construction" of reality from raw energy.

• The Cat's Bug: A construction that was larger and heavier.
• Joseph's (Rob's) Bug: A smaller, more detailed, and precise construction.
• The Bug's Cat: A terrifying "huge... animal-mountain sort of construction" surrounded by solid bands of infrared light that are incomprehensible to humans.

Seth states this with absolute clarity: "You do not—and I repeat: you do not —perceive all constructions into matter. You only perceive your own physical constructions."

The Mechanics of a Shared Illusion

If we're all building our own movie sets, how do we manage to agree on anything or not constantly walk through each other's walls? Seth explains that our separate realities are aligned through a few key mechanisms:

1. Telepathy: Described as "one of the main binders in the world of constructions," this inner communication network allows us to approximate the location, bulk, and durability of objects.
2. Shared Ideas: We are all aided by mass knowledge, like the "current idea of television set," which provides a general template for our personal constructions.
3. Atomic Vibrations: The atoms used in one person's construction emit signals that others subconsciously receive, helping them build a "more or less in faithful replica."

When Constructions Go Wrong

This system, however, can have some amusing and painful glitches. Ever bump into a chair in the dark? According to Seth, you didn't just forget it was there; you literally forgot to construct it in its proper location. The bruise is the result of a last-second correction: "But you remember just in time, construct your chair where your knee is."

Similarly, seeing a snake in a garden hose at night isn't just a trick of the light. A fearful person, perceiving the weak "afterimage" of the hose, can actively construct a "faulty impossible" snake where the hose pattern used to be.

Building Your World, Breaking Your Fences

Ultimately, Seth connects this cosmic framework directly to personal experience. We create our environment based on telepathic conceptions received throughout our entire lives. The danger lies in the limitations we accept from others. "Psychic gates are closed by parents and fences set up around the self," he warns. Breaking these self-adopted barriers is key, because "as man’s conception of himself enlarges so will his actual capabilities and possibilities be extended."
