“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A pun. It is as you know an extremely difficult topic because of the limits of your own conceptions. Philip may not be able to follow me too well, since he has not heard, nor read, any previous discussions on matter. But this again will not matter.

Your senses do not perceive this. They are far too slow. At some time your instruments may discover this interval. Nevertheless, for all the appearance of permanence and rigidity, your chair is only a chair by virtue of your own concept—gestalt, that is in itself severely limited due to the limitations of outer senses. I have mentioned that your cause and effect theory is in itself antiquated and distorted. Matter in itself does not decay, since it does not exist as one object long enough.

I am going to give you another short session. Incidentally Joseph, you were correct: I have been teaching Ruburt to feel concepts, rather than delivering them to him word by word, even though that is how he must deliver them to you.

I have been giving you the same sort of training. However this takes more out of Ruburt, since he must then, with my help, translate direct experience-concepts into a succession of meaningful words.
