赛斯二：知识不是死的法则，而是改变人格和伪装结构的行动

四十不惑的春风

这段原文是赛斯二所说的，很有启发。受此启发，我想出了几个问题，用于自问自答：

1、什么样的状态，可以说是知识和学习者融为了一体？

2、学习赛斯资料后，我有哪些改变？这些改变是持久性的、根本性的吗？

3、知识和学习者融为一体后，是如何使用知识的？



赛斯二说：
【你自己的人格结构会因为流经你的讯息而改变，这些讯息也会成为你们尘世生命遗产的一部分（a part of your earth life heritage）。当你开始过目前这一生时，这些讯息就是属于你的......

无论是知识、美、还是真理，没有任何东西能够独立于意识或人格而存在。我的人格就是这样，使你们感觉不亲密或觉得无法理解，只因为这个人格是奠基在与你们不同的基础假设上，而且我的人格在那些那些维度的主要存在，是由截然不同的心理活动为基础的人格结构和集成整体所组成......

无论如何，我现在给你们的不是你某种无形的知识。知识本身（微笑）是有意识的，不是用来传播的死东西，因为如果没有了人格和实现（personality and realization），知识就毫无意义，因为知识会改变它似乎流动经过的那些人格。在改变这些人格的过程中，这知识必须成为所要改变的每个细胞中觉知的一部分（part of the awareness of the very cells it alters）。

知识不像液体流过碗一样，而是会成为容纳它的容器的一部分，因此，就你而言，知识会成为你们细胞和所有结构的意识的一部分。举例来说，印在页面上的文字并不是死的，也不是无生命的符号，这些文字分享了印刷材料的意识，而各个字母本身，根据它们的位置和实相，让每一张纸都是独一无二的，上面写着的信息也是原创性的，和其他所有的纸都不同。

在这方面，新闻纸张也具有意识。即使是一丁点儿的讯息也不是死的，因此所有象征符号本身都具有意识，除了它们所要显示的信息之外，也都具有某个实相，你们可以很容易看到这一点，树的画作，虽然是树的象征，也有自己的意识和实相。

这种意识是由构成画作材料的个别意识所组成，但同时也包含出艺术家整体构思所产生的集成整体意识。观赏者从观赏画作中学到的任何东西，永远都是活的知识，都会改变观赏者自己的构造。

你们的赛斯（赛斯一）在这里帮助了我。你可以说你只是自己更大实相的象征，因为你自己更大的实相存在于许多其他维度中，就像树的存在来自于（绘画的）渲染一样。然而，你是有意识和觉知的人。因此，在各维度的每个现实背后，总是会有其他的现实和维度。
意识在程度上如此不同，使得你们对于意识的基本的统一性和无穷的多样性，还没有真正地概念。】

英文原文：

In that case your own personality structure was altered by the information that flowed through you, and it became a part of your earth life heritage. It was yours when you began this present lifetime.....

There is nothing, neither knowledge nor beauty nor truth, that exists independently of consciousness or personality. My personality is such that it is not intimate or understandable to you, now, simply because it is a personality based upon different root assumptions than your own, and has its prime existence in dimensions that are composed of personality structures and gestalts based on alien psychological activities.

I am not giving you some kind of disembodied knowledge, however. Knowledge itself (Pause, smile) is conscious. It is not a dead thing transmitted, since it has no meaning without personality and realization, and since it changes the personalities through whom it seems to flow. In changing them it of necessity is part of the awareness of the very cells it alters.

It is not like a liquid that flows through a bowl. It becomes a part of that which contains it, and therefore a part of the consciousness, in your case, of the cells and all of your structures. Words on a printed page for example are not dead, nor are they merely inert symbols. They share the consciousness of the material upon which they are printed and the various individual letters themselves, by their position and reality, make each unique piece of paper upon which they are written original from all others.

The newsprint to this degree, you see, has a consciousness, even in this regard. The least information is not inert. All symbols have a meaning therefore in themselves also, and a reality apart from that which they are meant to display. You can see this easily. The painting of a tree, while a symbol for the tree, nevertheless has its own consciousness and reality.

The consciousness is composed of the individual consciousness that make up the material that is within the painting, and yet there is also a gestalt consciousness that is the result of the artist's overall conception. Anything that an observer learns from looking at the painting is always living knowledge, that alters his own makeup.

Your Seth has helped me out here. You could say that you are merely symbols of your own greater reality, since your own greater reality exists in as many other dimensions as the tree exists from a rendering of it. Yet you are conscious and aware. Therefore behind every actuality in each dimension there are always other actualities and dimensions.

Consciousness so varies in degree that as yet you have little real idea of its basic unity and of its endless diversity.
