“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

My field is indeed education, and my particular interest is that these abilities of human personality be understood and investigated. For these are not, dear Doctor, these are not sudden unnatural occurrences.

(At 2:03 Jane came out of the trance state and opened her eyes. A discussion followed involving the sessions in general, the field of psychic investigation, proofs, etc. Jane went back into trance and resumed as Seth at 2:25.)

Irregardless of our particular interests, I look forward to long conversations with you on less formal topics... like yourself, I am independent. We have many fields of common interests... the personality should always be considered in an elemental way as patterns of action. It is never stable. When you attempt to tamper with various levels you change it. When you crack an egg to discover what is inside you ruin the egg. There are other ways to get inside the egg, and they are not too difficult to do... you have the sort of mind, Dr. Instream, that will be of great benefit to us here. We do not need a hammer to crack the eggshell. I am an egghead, but I do not need a hammer to be cracked.

(Dr. Instream said it was best to pursue a policy of denying nothing, to ignore the criticisms and go our own way. We should avoid personal polemics in the field and not get involved; just as he has always gone his own way. Jane, as Seth, sat listening intently. She nodded.)
