“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Studies will show that this duality is not a natural state of man, since even today many so-called primitive societies do not experience this duality to anything like the degree with which it affects more civilized communities. This alone should be proof that the condition is not a prerequisite for the species as such. Instead, and to the contrary, this sense of duality besieges man as he becomes more inventive in a purely mechanical fashion.

In many primitive communities, these communications are accepted as reality. In your civilization as a whole, they are not. I know that you will tell me, my dear Joseph, when your hand is tired, and we will break.

Much investigation along the lines of so-called ESP is being carried on in the Western world. The fact is that Western man has not only cut himself off from half of his own ability, and half of his own knowledge because of his insistence upon an artificial dual nature, but he has also cut himself off from the very primitive societies from which he could learn very much about these abilities, which he himself refuses to admit.
