“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

You have read of so-called mediums—and I detest the term—speaking gibberish, the explanation being given that the so-called spirit could not come through. Nevertheless so-called gibberish in such an instance merely represents, when it is legitimate, the fact that no new comprehensions or knowledge can be so transmitted entirely by the means of an entity speaking from another plane.

The individuals receiving such knowledge already are capable of understanding it, and their own inner ego helps them in this comprehension. I have been against the deep trance for this reason, in that I prefer to work with you in such a manner that you are able to use this knowledge consciously, and also feel that you have a part in its delivery.

(Intrigued by Jane’s delivery of the word extral, I checked Webster’s Unabridged for 1951. The prefix extral was not listed, nor was extralvalue; but extralimitary, meaning outside the limit or boundary, was. It might be said that the overtones of the two words, extralvalue and extralimitary, were the same. Jane speculated that since she had studied Latin in high school Seth might have used her own subconscious knowledge to coin a new word.
