electrical field

Electrical Field Clue Archive

1. What specific claims did Seth make about this concept? How many times was it mentioned, in which books, and did the wording change over time?

Definition and Nature of the Concept

• Seth pointed out that to be within a concept is to be within an electrical field formed by various intensities [early-sessions-3 §128].
• All depths and dimensions within this field are measured solely by intensity; although intensity possesses a non-material "mass," it has no concept of size [early-sessions-3 §128].

The Electrical Field as an Actual System of Existence

• Seth stated that there exist actual electrical fields in which the dominant data are electrical, and that electrical force is the primary method by which inner energy expresses itself [early-sessions-3 §122].
• This particular electrical field is extremely closely related to the physical field; if the known physical universe were used as an analogy, it would correspond to a nearby planet within this local galaxy [early-sessions-3 §122].
• The counterpart of the physical body exists in the electrical field in the form of an "electrical body," composed of various electrical systems, in which thoughts and emotions exist as actual entities and as definite charged actions [early-sessions-3 §122].

The Electrical Reality of Thoughts and Emotions

• Thoughts and emotions exist as electrical actualities, independent of their subjective origins; physical weight can also exist in electrical form, and the human system subsequently translates experience from electrical form [early-sessions-3 §123].
• This electrical field contains other dimensions and is furnished with integral existences characterized by intensity, spatial reality, electrical mass, and the like [early-sessions-3 §123].

Wording and Changes over Time

• In the provided Session 525 of Seth Speaks, Seth did not directly use the term "electrical field," but instead employed the wording "electromagnetic energy units" and "intersection points," calling them "natural emanations of consciousness," and described how these units form a web through which particles of matter are formed [seth-speaks §525]. This indicates that the wording of the related discussion changed over time.

2. What mechanism did he provide?

Not covered in the material.

3. Are there observable inferences or explicit predictions (including time, quantity, conditions)?

Thoughts, emotions, and dreams each possess an independent electrical reality and constitute an independent electrical field, rather than the observable weak electrical effects within the brain or nervous system [early-sessions-3 §123]. This electrical field possesses its own dimensions, including intensity, spatial reality, electrical mass, and potential, and the physical system can be viewed as a result produced by this electrical field [early-sessions-3 §123].

• Each individual is continuously "bombarded" by countless external electrical actions, accepting only those with which there is mutual attraction; individuals are generally unable to perceive that the source of these actions may lie outside their own system [early-sessions-3 §123].

• Thoughts and emotions, as electrical realities, can directly influence the physical bodily structure of human beings through this reality [early-sessions-3 §123].

• There is a direct connection between emotional climate and physical health because emotions possess electrical reality; otherwise, this connection could not be clearly understood [early-sessions-3 §123].

• In electrical reality, intensity determines duration, and intensity can project that reality simultaneously into multiple dimensions [early-sessions-3 §125].

• Physical time is a measure of intensity; realities created in the electrical field can manifest as the future in the physical universe [early-sessions-3 §127].

• The success of certain experiments requires specific conditions to be met, otherwise no results will be produced; these conditions involve weather, emotional climate, and the physical and emotional states of participants [early-sessions-3 §125].

• In materialization experiments, energy can be converted into electrical patterns for use by entities, but this conversion requires multiple conditions; the success or failure of such attempts cannot be determined in advance [early-sessions-3 §125].

• Specific experimental conditions include: participants holding hands and touching feet to form a circle; the use of incense (due to negative ions and the electrical reality of odors); semi-darkness; moderate alcohol consumption being helpful while excessive consumption should be avoided; Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday possibly offering a slight advantage, though weather on other days may alter this advantage; dark clothing being helpful, red or purple being preferable under certain conditions, and yellow being avoided [early-sessions-3 §125].

• Regarding prediction: predictive or clairvoyant data originates from initial experiences of an electrical nature, which are decomposed by the mind and then converted by the brain into psychological symbols; for them to be meaningful to the conscious ego, training in interpretive ability is required, typically involving other subconscious interpretive steps [early-sessions-3 §127].

4. Where did he say contemporary science was wrong, and in what direction should it look?

The error of science at the time lay in viewing electrical and chemical systems only as subordinate to the physical system, without recognizing them as systems with their own reality and independent actuality. Seth stated: "Your scientists see or perceive electrical and chemical systems, for example, only in their relation to the physical system. They do not understand that these systems exist as actualities in their own universe." [early-sessions-3 §122] That is, science studied electricity as a phenomenon within the physical system, without recognizing that it itself constitutes an independent, real field, of which the physical universe is instead an effect.

Science had discovered only a crude manifestation of "one" kind of electricity, whereas "regardless of present scientific thought, there are at least three different kinds of electricity that your scientists have not yet discovered" [early-sessions-3 §122]. One of these is closely related to the intensity with which thoughts take form in the formless mind, are transmitted to the material brain, and are transformed into action.

Science's understanding of the spatial dimensions of the electrical field also missed the core point: Seth said that in electrical systems, depth and dimension are all based on intensity, "intensity, though it possesses a certain non-material mass, has no size as you know it" [early-sessions-3 §128]; shapes within electrical systems are constituted by variations in intensity, rather than being measured by volume or shape in physical space.

Regarding the direction of correction: First, it should be recognized that the physical body has a corresponding "electrical body" in the electrical field—a non-material existence with a special mass but no weight, whose characteristics are presented through the aggregation of intensity and electrical force, rather than distinguished by shape [early-sessions-3 §122]. In this understanding, the mind exists in electrical form, and the brain is a part of the mind within the electrical structure; neural impulses continually leap and connect between the two fields [early-sessions-3 §122].

Second, the independent existence of thoughts and emotions in the electrical field should be studied directly. Seth emphasized: "Thoughts and emotions, as electrical actualities, are independent of their subjective point of origin" [early-sessions-3 §123]; they possess continuous electrical action, are not subject to physical laws, and can transcend the dimension of physical time, existing simultaneously in the past and the present [early-sessions-3 §122, §123]. Unless this fact is acknowledged, "the physical structure of the human being will never be understood" [early-sessions-3 §123].

Third, the physical system is fundamentally driven by the electrical field: Seth pointed out that "the physical system is an effect caused by this electrical field" [early-sessions-3 §123]; the existence of the physical system depends on the electrical system, while the electrical system can exist independently of physical matter [early-sessions-3 §122]. Research should therefore reverse the causal direction, proceeding from the electrical field to examine its formative role on physical matter, rather than inferring the electrical side from the physical side.

Fourth, the formation of matter by thoughts and emotions as electromagnetic emanations is a directly researchable direction. Seth said: "Thoughts and emotions form matter through very evident methods and quite definite laws, although these methods and laws may not yet be known at present" [seth-speaks §525]; all consciousness, including cellular consciousness, emits electromagnetic units, and particles of matter are formed on and by this electromagnetic web [seth-speaks §525]. If the manner in which "idea becomes matter" were understood, modern technology would be comprehensively revised [seth-speaks §525].

5. What experiments or exercises did he suggest? What did Jane and Rob actually do and observe?

Seth suggested various experiments or exercises, including telling Jane and Rob to try any experiments they wished, saying this would train their abilities to a certain extent [early-sessions-1 §12]. He also suggested they work regularly with a pendulum [early-sessions-4 §153]. Seth additionally encouraged psychological time experiments, believing these would increase their fluidity within the electrical field and their subconscious manipulative abilities [early-sessions-3 §131]. He emphasized that these experiments should be disciplined and gradual, like laying stone steps that could be traversed back and forth between the self and the inner self [early-sessions-3 §131].

The experiments Jane and Rob actually conducted and observed were as follows: On January 4, 1964, they followed Seth's suggestion to try different content—drawing the curtains, leaving only one red Christmas light on, placing Jane's wedding ring on a wooden table covered with black cloth, and sitting facing each other with hands flat on the cloth, sometimes touching; later in the darkness they switched to a Spanish American military medal. They sat quietly for about an hour with no results, after which Jane said that communication or speaking was needed to achieve an effect. Rob began asking random questions, and Jane spontaneously narrated in a normal voice a passage about Sarah Wellington, a girl in a shoemaker's shop in England in 1748 [early-sessions-1 §12]. In this experiment, Jane observed that her hands often seemed to disappear, and the metal medal exhibited the same phenomenon [early-sessions-1 §12]. On another occasion, in a drowsy early-morning state, Jane heard a male voice whisper "twelve-o-five," and the pendulum answered as random telepathy; she also experienced standing in grayish-white mist and smelling smoke, with the experience ending when she felt panic [early-sessions-4 §153]. In another session, Jane mentioned that while hearing Seth say "dense," she experienced a strong mental image of a field of multiple layers of light points [early-sessions-3 §131]. During a session, Rob felt his right hand "swell" or enlarge, and Jane subsequently felt the same sensation in her hands, though the feeling disappeared before measurement [early-sessions-3 §131].

6. Supplementary or contradictory points provided by other concepts in the corpus related to this concept?

The electrical field is a reality domain in which the dominant data are electrical [early-sessions-3 §122]. External forces entering this domain are converted, through the very act of entry, into the form of data acceptable to the domain [early-sessions-3 §122]. The domain is open, but once data enters, its form is completely different from what it was before entry [early-sessions-3 §122]. The electrical field is one of the "reality domains," possessing a specific identity and operating according to specific intrinsic laws [early-sessions-3 §122].

The electrical field is intimately connected to the physical field and is one of the closest "planets" to the physical system [early-sessions-3 §122]. Personality is constructed in this domain with electrical components, without the need for physical matter [early-sessions-3 §122]. Personality exists simultaneously in the electrical field and the physical field, and the two systems are interdependent because of their openness [early-sessions-3 §122]. Neural impulses continually leap between the electrical and physical fields and establish connections, a relationship far closer than scientists have currently discovered [early-sessions-3 §122]. Only occasionally does the electrical field manifest visibly within the physical field [early-sessions-3 §122]. The electrical field is also involved in the process of "growth" within the physical field [early-sessions-3 §122]. The electrical pulses within atoms and molecules are part of the structure of the physical universe, but the electrical field itself does not directly perceive matter [early-sessions-3 §122]. In the electrical field, energy concentrates to form the concept of "mass," but this is not matter in the physical sense [early-sessions-3 §122]. Such electrical manifestations, measured by intensity per unit mass, are far stronger than anything in the physical field [early-sessions-3 §122].

The physical body not only possesses weak electrical activity internally, but the entire body has a counterpart in the electrical field, namely a non-material electrical body [early-sessions-3 §122]. This electrical body has a unique "mass" but no weight, and is distinguished by intensity and concentration rather than by shape [early-sessions-3 §122]. Thoughts do not exist physically within the material body, but electrically [early-sessions-3 §122]. The brain is physically existent, but in the electrical structure it is part of the thought [early-sessions-3 §122]. Organs exist electrically; the skin does not exist in the electrical counterpart, although physical skin contains electrical force [early-sessions-3 §122]. If the electrical body were seen, its shape would be completely different from the physical shape [early-sessions-3 §122]. The electrical counterpart is an identity composed of various electrical systems that operate within a range [early-sessions-3 §122]. Thoughts and emotions, as independent electrical actions, possess direct, vivid reality within the electrical field [early-sessions-3 §122]. Emotions exist as specific charged actions, not as expressions of feeling [early-sessions-3 §122]. In the electrical field, thoughts, emotions, and feelings are perceived more directly than in the physical field, because they require no translation or intermediate steps [early-sessions-3 §122].

The electrical field has dimensions different from spatial dimensions, defined by variations in intensity [early-sessions-3 §125]. In the electrical field, time is not continuity but is closely tied to intensity, which determines the duration of actual things [early-sessions-3 §125]. The motion of the electrical field is continuous, and this motion makes the motion of the physical field possible [early-sessions-3 §125]. In the electrical field, time is described as an "electrical pulse" that grows through intensity, rather than through moments [early-sessions-3 §125]. Distance in the electrical field is distance in action, not spatial distance; action is independent and discontinuous, and distance occurs within the intensity of action [early-sessions-3 §125]. Dreams possess this kind of distance—for example, traveling a road in a dream involves essential distance without requiring space [early-sessions-3 §125]. The electrical field contains characteristics such as "intensity, spatial reality, electrical mass, potential, and polarity" [early-sessions-3 §123].

Thoughts and emotions, as electrical actions, are independent of their subjective origins [early-sessions-3 §123]. A thought or emotion produced by an individual, even if rejected, retains an independent electrical reality and may be attracted to others with a similar emotional climate [early-sessions-3 §123]. Thoughts, emotions, and dreams are real electrical actions with direct effects on psychological and physical health [early-sessions-3 §123]. Thoughts are real things, as real as chairs, but they possess potent electrical force [early-sessions-3 §123]. Thoughts, as electrical actions, exist at the level of thought (non-physical), and are then translated and sent to the brain, which in turn triggers responses [early-sessions-3 §123]. Thoughts are not limited by barriers such as physical skin; they recognize only electrical systems [early-sessions-3 §123]. Individuals continually receive countless such electrical actions, accepting only those with which there is mutual attraction [early-sessions-3 §123]. If the external reality of thoughts is not acknowledged, the physical structure of humans cannot be understood [early-sessions-3 §123]. The electrical field is independent and unrelated to the weak electrical effects observed in the brain or nervous system [early-sessions-3 §123]. The physical system may be a result of the electrical field; all subjective experience exists electrically first [early-sessions-3 §123].

7. Questions Not Yet Asked

1. Can EEG or MEG be used to measure whole-body electrical field distribution before and after emotional arousal, in order to test whether there are signals of "electrical reality" independent of neural activity?
2. Can a double-blind experiment be designed to compare differences in electromagnetic field parameters (e.g., low-frequency electric field intensity) or physiological indicators (skin conductance, heart rate variability) during focused-intention tasks under different clothing colors (red/purple vs. yellow)?
3. Can ultra-low-frequency electric field sensor arrays be used to record electrical field fluctuations in surrounding space during meditation or specific emotional states, compared with baseline, to analyze whether independent electrical events predictable by intensity thresholds exist?
4. Based on the hypothesis that "intensity determines temporal duration," can laboratory manipulation of emotional intensity (e.g., fear/pleasure stimuli) be used to measure the duration of subsequent related memories or physiological responses, testing the quantitative relationship between intensity and duration?
5. Can a computational model be established that treats thoughts or emotions as sources emitting electromagnetic units (EEUs), simulating the process of forming a "web" and attracting material particles, and compared with analogous structures in existing quantum field theory or plasma physics?
