Physical matter is continuously constructed and maintained by each individual at the subconscious level; personality, as an energy form, can alter the arrangement of energy components to change form.
物理物质由每个个体在潜意识层面连续构建并维持;人格作为能量形式可改变能量组件排列以改变形式。

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
A full-scale theory of material construction cannot be adjudicated by a single experiment; first test whether remote intention changes physical systems: approximately 100 trained participants, each completing 20 randomized intention/rest blocks over 12 months; the primary endpoint is exclusively membrane potential or pre-specified morphological indicators of a remote closed culture system; experimenters and image analysts are blinded, with parallel controls including no-participant runs, sham targets, and direct electrical stimulation positive controls. Control for temperature, vibration, light, electromagnetic leakage, and batch effects, and replicate in a second laboratory; even if positive, it only indicates a remote effect requiring explanation, and cannot prove that matter depends on personality for existence.

What it would overturn
If an individual's mental state can causally alter matter after excluding known physical pathways, this would revise the assumption that the observable evolution of a closed system is determined by its physical state and physical interactions.

Specificity of Seth's formulation
'Each individual continuously constructs matter' is a strong ontological claim, but it does not specify rules for conflicts among different individuals' construction outcomes, nor does it define observable changes after a personality departs.
Note
The 'contradicted' verdict is rendered under the literal interpretation of external matter: it conflicts with the mainstream physical description that matter persists independently of any specific person's ongoing mental activity; if it only means that perception is constructed by the brain, then it is a weaker claim.
