“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You will have to give us time… (Pause, one of many.) When a man’s consciousness, for example, blended with that of a tree, those data became “visual” for others to perceive. When a man’s consciousness merged with an animal’s, that blending became visual data also.

Language is therefore a substitute for direct communication. The symbols of the words stand for your own or someone else’s experience, while protecting you or them from it at the same time.

(10:50. Jane had “strange feelings” connected with tonight’s session. She felt somewhat disoriented, yet couldn’t explain very well in just what way. She’d taken many long pauses in delivering the material — a few of which I’ve indicated — but hadn’t been at all concerned about them while in trance. She said that at such times she was “waiting for the material to assemble and translate itself:” Originally it wasn’t verbal at all. Resume at 11:13.)

Neurologically he became familiar to some extent with the stuff beneath language, the inner rhythms unexpressed, and felt the odd connections that exist between words and your sense of time. This confused him, for this was material directly felt but verbally inexpressible. He will readjust “in no time.”
