electromagnetic reality电磁实相

In The Early Sessions Book 4 (dictated in 1965), Seth elaborates in detail on the concept of "electromagnetic reality." Seth emphasizes that he is not speaking symbolically but is discussing the existence of electromagnetic systems from a very practical standpoint. The following are the book's core formulations and distinctive aspects of electromagnetic reality:

1. All things have electromagnetic and chemical reality. Seth points out that all things in the world have electromagnetic and chemical reality. The electromagnetic composition of the air is very important, and in weather with uniform temperature and clear skies, electromagnetic properties tend to be stable ^[1]. No physical matter exists without electromagnetic reality, and no thought exists outside this reality ^[2]. Any action, thought, and dream all jointly build this identity system ^[3].

2. The electromagnetic nature and operating mechanism of emotions and thoughts. Emotional reactions produce electromagnetic forces, and these forces to a large extent form boundaries, constituting the general field or system to which the individual responds ^[4]. Conscious and subconscious emotional attitudes have an efficiently operating electromagnetic reality, and can serve either as an "open system" that attracts new stimuli or as an overloaded "closed electricity" ^[4]. This electromagnetic system operates in both waking and sleeping states, determining which experiences the individual remains open to or shuts out ^[5]. Emotions have their own reality within the electromagnetic system; they do not indirectly affect physical matter but cause specific electromagnetic changes within the physical organism, and their attraction is proportional to the intensity of the emotion itself or the charge it carries ^[2]. Every thought has the same electrical potential, and in essence there is almost no difference among physical images, dream images, apparitions, thoughts, and emotions ^[6].

3. The role of the electromagnetic system in dreams and telepathy. Any dream fits within specific and definite electromagnetic boundaries, while also helping to form the electromagnetic field itself ^[2]. Dream images have electromagnetic reality and are therefore extremely easy to transmit between dreamers ^[6]. When the electromagnetic system is open, telepathic communication can travel through it ^[6]. In telepathic and clairvoyant experiences, what is transmitted is precisely the "electromagnetic reality pattern," which must then be translated into patterns that ego consciousness can recognize ^[3].

4. The electromagnetic skeleton of the human body and the "electromagnetic identity." The electromagnetic framework can be regarded as the skeletal form within physical matter ^[7]. The electromagnetic reality within the human body has considerable mass, but its physical weight is at most only 3 to 6 ounces, and this mass consists entirely of electrical intensity ^[7]. All of the individual's experiences, including unconscious experiences, constitute its unique "electromagnetic identity," which does not depend on the physical field. At physical death, the connections are cut, polarity is reversed, and the personal identity composed of electrically and magnetically coded experiences remains intact ^[7].

5. The influence of electromagnetic reality on health and bodily cells. Intuition, as action, produces chemical and electromagnetic changes ^[8]. The effects of thought are precise and specific, determined by their own electromagnetic identity. The physical system operates best under particular electromagnetic patterns, while other patterns produce adverse effects and can even alter the actual molecular structure of the organism's physical cells ^[8]. Chronic destructive thought patterns, because they lie within a particular range of the electromagnetic system, directly affect the physical system and lead to poor health ^[8]. Conversely, suggestion itself, as action, also has electromagnetic reality, and constructive suggestion can initiate and stimulate healing processes ^[9]. Merging into a large group is often beneficial to the individual, because it makes it easier for the individual to contact a larger range of electromagnetic reality ^[9][10]. The individual's overall health is closely related to the delicate balance of electromagnetic properties, and when the organism is deeply caught in destructive patterns, this imbalance is also reflected in dreams ^[10].

In The Early Sessions Book 5, Seth provides an in-depth exposition of the concept "electromagnetic reality," revealing it as the fundamental basis behind the material world, thought, and the individual self. Its core discussion includes the following dimensions:

1. The nature of the physical system and objects is constituted by the electromagnetic reality behind them. Seth clearly states that the physical system and the physical objects within it are all constituted by the electromagnetic reality behind them ^[1][2]. Not all electromagnetic reality materializes physically, and different things materialize to different degrees. For example, dreams have reality on the physical level, but their solidity is less than that of a chair; planets and stars, by contrast, materialize more fully than ordinary physical objects such as chairs ^[2].

2. All actions and the multiple layers of the self have electromagnetic reality. Seth points out that all actions have electromagnetic reality, although this reality usually cannot be perceived by the physical senses ^[3]. The various layers of the self also possess this electromagnetic reality; they are actions capable of being aware of themselves as identity, whether or not the ego makes such distinctions. These layers are very sensitive to other realities falling within their particular range and will reject actions that do not belong to that range ^[3].

3. The electromagnetic identity of thought and psychic communication. Thought has a specific electromagnetic identity and falls within a specific range of intensity. Therefore, when another individual is simultaneously open to that particular range, the thought can be received indirectly ^[2]. For psychic communication to occur, the communication must fall within the specific range of electromagnetic reality that the receiver can receive, and it must be received by that particular layer of the receiver's self capable of translating it into meaningful terms ^[3].

4. The ego's maintenance of electromagnetic balance and the adjustment of states of consciousness. In a fully ego-oriented state of consciousness, the ego constantly tries to maintain a rigid electromagnetic balance in order to help it maintain a more or less closed perceptual system ^[1]. However, when a certain instability is established electromagnetically, the individual becomes able to handle higher frequencies and ranges ^[1].

5. The electromagnetic connection between the earth's magnetic field and human health. Seth mentions that the human organism can reach its healthiest state if it adopts a north-south orientation during sleep. The reason behind this suggestion is closely related to the earth's magnetic field and electromagnetic reality ^[4][3].

In The Early Sessions Book 6, Seth provides an in-depth exposition of the concept "electromagnetic reality," revealing its nature as the fundamental energy mechanism behind consciousness, body chemistry, and multidimensional projection forms. The following is a summary of the book's core discussion of electromagnetic reality:

1. The nature and attribution of electromagnetic reality

2. It belongs to the inner self: electromagnetic reality belongs to the "inner self" or psychic structure, not to physical matter or the physical structure of the body, although it does manifest in physical form ^[1].

3. The fundamental form of consciousness: all consciousness exists first and foremost in electromagnetic terms. Although consciousness can project itself into many different forms, it is never completely imprisoned within those forms ^[2].

4. Independence from physical existence: the individual's identity does not depend on physical existence. Because electromagnetic reality belongs to the inner self, the projection itself and the continuance of the human personality do not depend on physical life or physical survival ^[1].

5. The relationship between electromagnetic reality and body chemistry and physical structure

6. Chemical properties are a byproduct of electromagnetic changes: the chemical properties of the body are the result of certain electromagnetic changes. Therefore, chemical substances are actually a byproduct of electromagnetic reality ^[1].

7. The physical body's borrowing of electromagnetic properties: in physical survival, a specific portion of the inner self's electromagnetic properties is used by the physical structure of the body ^[2].

8. Electromagnetic and chemical changes during projection: when the individual projects, the normal weight of the physical body undergoes slight changes, and surplus chemicals accumulated during waking life are used to help form the projection image. At such times, there is a slight loss of the individual's electromagnetic and chemical effectiveness ^[3].

9. The return of electromagnetic properties: when the inner self projects, subtle changes occur in the body. Once these electromagnetic properties are no longer needed to construct the physical image, they simply return to their original source with the inner self and are no longer used to maintain the physical image ^[2].

10. The electromagnetic reality characteristics of projection forms

11. The electromagnetic reality of projection forms: both the second and third projection forms have electromagnetic reality ^[1].

12. Nonphysicality and atomic structure: these projection forms are usually not as physical as clouds, but they possess shape, boundaries to a certain degree, and motion. They absolutely have a reality, although it usually cannot be perceived by the physical senses. This diffuse quality is the most important distinction between such apparitions and physical forms. They possess atomic structure, but in some respects their structure is less complete than that of physical forms ^[3].

13. The connection between electromagnetic properties and body orientation (north-south)

14. The necessity of north-south orientation: during sleep or when recording dreams, it is extremely important for the body to maintain a north-south orientation. In this position, when the physical organism is so placed, the rational part of the brain can work most effectively with the intuitive part of the self ^[4].

15. The influence of electromagnetic properties on overall functioning: in the north-south orientation, the entire organism operates more efficiently, and the whole self functions more like a single unit. In other postures, intellectual processes are weakened to a certain degree. This is related to "electromagnetic properties" ^[4].

16. The optimal use of energy: in other orientations, what suffers most is the self and the intellect. In the north-south orientation, energy is most easily utilized, thereby reducing unnecessary limitations to a minimum ^[4].
