113 Mental Enclosures Turn Energy Into Matter

Session 113, recorded December 7, 1964, a mix of high-level metaphysical physics and a personality that describes itself as a "windbag,"

The Cosmic Vacation Notice

Even a multi-dimensional personality knows when it’s time to take a breather. Seth opened the session by surprisingly granting Jane and Rob a short "vacation." Despite his own eagerness to keep the information flowing, he recognized the need for a rest period, proving that even spiritual teachers care about burnout.

• The Reluctant Break: Seth admitted he gets "quite carried away" and forgot that a rest period was due. He humorously noted his own attachment to the sessions, stating: "Even though such a period is due, I find myself jealous of missing any sessions, as you might guess, knowing me by now."
• A Self-Aware "Windbag": Showing his lighter side, Seth acknowledged his tendency to ramble. He noted: "I have told you myself that I would close now, yet still find it difficult. I am such a windbag. I may say this, you may not."
• Holiday Spirit: With Christmas approaching, Seth joked about gifts, wondering what the couple would give him and teasing: "I will not come loaded with lights like a Christmas tree, but you can never tell. I may come decked out in some other manner."

The Core Insight: How Energy Materializes

Beneath the banter, Seth dropped a significant piece of information regarding the mechanics of reality. He introduced the concept of "mental enclosures" as the bridge between pure energy and the physical world.

• Entry Points: Seth explained that individualized energy enters and manipulates a given field (like our physical reality) through specific "mental enclosures."
• Pure Energy vs. Camouflage: These entry points are not made of the "camouflage" (physical matter) they eventually inhabit; rather, they are formed of pure energy.
• Simplicity to Complexity: Seth emphasized that these initial projections of energy are simple but contain the inherent potential for all the complexity we see in the universe.
• The Foundation: This data was intended to be the basis for future discussions regarding the three close universal fields.

Psychological Time: The "Off-Week" Experiments

While there were no formal sessions during the break, both Jane and Rob kept busy with their "psychological time" (Psy-Time) notebooks. Their experiences during this rest period were anything but quiet.

• Jane’s Experiences: Jane reported seeing a brass doorknob and hearing voices through closed eyelids, achieving "excellent states" of dissociation even without Seth’s active presence.
• Rob’s Visionary Glimpses: Rob had a busy week in the inner realms, reporting:
  • A full-figure glimpse of an acquaintance, Lois Williams, making a comical gesture.
  • An encounter with a "short, dark-haired man... who seemed to be an Oriental" carrying a notepad and asking for permission to proceed.
  • Physical sensations of his body pivoting headfirst or feeling "lighter" and "stunted" while lying on the bed.
• The Inverted Cent Sign: Rob also saw a specific symbol suspended in the air—a half arc with a diagonal cross line—which Seth had previously described as being on a rowboat in Provincetown.
