The outer ego is more subject to material attributes than the inner self, but can directly experience inner reality by adjusting focus and aligning with the inner self.

外在自我比内在自我更受制于物质属性，但可通过调整焦点、与内在自我对齐，直接体验内在实相。

This program treats the Seth Material as a source of hypotheses, not as doctrine to be validated. Lead dossiers are AI-compiled from the corpus with a book-and-session citation after every statement; literature reviews are AI web-search summaries whose references were all DOI-verified against Crossref; the agenda draft is an AI synthesis. None of it is Seth's original text, and none of it represents scientific consensus. English fields are machine-translated; the Chinese text is authoritative.

Adjudicating experiment

Approximately 180 participants are randomly assigned to inner-self focus training, open monitoring, or expectation-matched relaxation groups, training for 8 weeks with 3-month follow-up; record experience interviews, attention performance, metacognitive accuracy, and fMRI in about 90. If 'inner reality' refers only to subjective experience, use blinded interview coding and reproducibility checks; if it refers to information not obtainable through ordinary senses, add a target identification task generated by computer, unknown to experimenters, with blocked information leakage, and pre-register hit criteria. The two interpretations must be selected before data collection.
