“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

With our methods the ego is taken into confidence, you see. (Long pause.) Insanity, as it is labeled, is sometimes merely the result of a strange situation, in which certain individuals use the ordinarily dormant portions of the brain as well as, or sometimes largely in place of, the recognized portions. The perception of reality is therefore largely alien to society.

It is possible (underlined) that the psychedelic experience for these individuals would involve consciousness expansion directed toward (underlined) usual physical reality, and bring about a more unified personality structure from society’s standpoint. Insanity as a term means nothing. All mental life is characterized by divergent perceptions of any given set of sense data that is recognized as Reality, with a capital R.

Those who perceive this set of data in such a way that agreement is reached are called sane. But none of you perceives the same reality. Those whose ideas and perceptions of reality are completely out of line with the general agreement are called insane. The terms only show that reality as you know it is the result of private perceptions. Reality is built up as a result of these private perceptions.
