The Dream-Art Scientist
By Mary Barton
"I came to the Seth material, as many of you probably did, skeptical, disillusioned, and feeling powerless. Seth changed all of those emotions by gently opening my eyes to reality and how it is formed. One key component to reality creation, surprisingly, was dream recall and learning to function consciously in the dream state. Once I overcame my reluctance to accept that unique, practically sacrilegious concept, I began recording my dreams to see if Seth really knew what he was talking about. I discovered that he did.
Seth describes a Dream-Art Scientist as a person who learns how to become conscious in the sleep state; someone who can distinguish the different stages of dream events; someone who familiarizes herself with dream symbols and how they correlate to physical symbols; someone who can recognize interior meeting places where communications between various forms of consciousness occur; and someone who learns to separate the various types of dream realities and the laws which govern them.
In this article, we will explore what Seth has to say regarding these concepts and the insights you and I have discovered in our personal dream and out-of-body-experiences (a.k.a. projections of consciousness). Please mail to me in care of Reality Change any comments, questions, unique experiences, or revelations concerning dream/OOB explorations you wish to share . I will try to make this a truly cooperative venture in dream/OOB wisdom.
But why are dreams so important? Why did Seth place such emphasis on the benefits of remembering our dreams and learning to manipulate them? As many of you know, one reason Seth recommended we become Dream-Art Scientists was because the dream state is the state in which man fully experiences all of the unique characteristics of consciousness. Because we have been literally blinded by our beliefs of what constitutes reality and have been erroneously taught the origin of life is based either on Darwin's theory of evolution or some vengeful creator-God, we have not realized the true nature of consciousness. Dream reality is one place we can discover what we truly are. This is where consciousness and its abilities are so unmistakably apparent. This is where we learn how mobile, creative, and powerful man is.
Seth tells us that the dream state is one of the focuses of consciousness from which probabilities are consciously chosen for manifestation as physical reality. As you know, conscious creation is also a direct consequence of our thoughts, beliefs, and intentions; but dream/OOB reality openly demonstrates the truth of these concepts. We learn it is the source of physical reality as we know it. Once you become conscious in the dream state, there is no doubt that you create your own reality. When idle thoughts or emotions spring into form around you while out-of-body, you discover how powerful consciousness is. You discover how powerful you are and how unique, wonderful, and special life is.
Another important reason for becoming a Dream-Art Scientist is that Seth tells us it is in the dream/OOB state that we can encounter our ideal blueprints for physical manifestation. He said our blueprints lie beneath electron activity and are the actual seeds from which physical reality is created. Blueprints cannot be found in the exterior universe but only in the "withinness" of consciousness. These inner patterns are converted into mental images which are meant to give us conscious direction to meet our earthly goals. Blueprints serve as stimulators of development and show us our potentials and how they can best be fulfilled in physical reality.
Seth was a Dream-Art Scientist. He gave us some evocative hints on communicating and reality creation when he said that in order to visit us, he moves through psychic and mental events which we would interpret as space and time. In order to communicate with us, he translated himself into an event we could understand. For us to develop such abilities, we need to learn some "ancient arts" which our society for the most part has deemed useless or non-existent. But as we each learn to manipulate in dream reality, we learn that these tools are not useless or mere fantasies but are some of the most beneficial abilities we may ever possess. Through our dreams we can easily reach other focuses of consciousness. We can reach founts of wisdom and creativity and use that knowledge to make our physical world a happier place. We can learn to heal and travel through space and time. Furthermore, Seth says we can change and influence our history. It appears to me that we can all benefit from becoming Dream-Art Scientists.
Seth suggested we develop our Dream-Art Scientist skills by joyfully building an inner city. This city will exist in fact and can be used by man now in the out-of-body state. This inner city is one where we can communicate with each other and other forms of consciousness, despite apparent separations in time and space. Seth said that this is, in effect, the way all civilizations are built.
The benefits of dream recall and manipulation? They seem apparent to me."
