“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

It is because you have yourselves reached a certain point in your own development that I speak to you tonight, and when I do so I am between systems. I am neither here nor there, you see. I am using Ruburt’s nervous system, for example, but I am not Ruburt. I come to you from a long way and yet the distance is not in terms of space. I am separated from you in a way that has nothing to do with space. May I say that I do indeed enjoy this situation, now being indeed the only gentleman present. I am endeavoring, you see, to let more of my personality show itself this evening [so] that you can know me by my characteristics as well as my words. If you do not like the one you may prefer the other.

But when I speak to you of death, know that I myself have died and been reborn many times before. Yet I speak to you and I speak in a lively manner, for one dead. Therefore, when you are tempted to think of it as an end of all, then remember that you know a rather lively spirit and when you hear my voice speaking through Ruburt this evening then remember how hoarse it was before I began to speak, and know indeed that were I not such a gentleman, I could add considerably to its volume. The hour is late however and Ruburt would not thank me for my troubles. He would worry about the neighbors.
