“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

In larger terms knowledge cannot simply be given. It must be experienced. Although you do not find me as warmly personal as the Seth with whom (staring directly at me) you have been acquainted, I am a personality. The information is not coming to you out of nowhere. Knowledge does not exist in those terms.

He is forced in one way to reach further into inner reality, for I do not come as immediately to you as Seth as you knew him did. Since I am not here that immediately, then Ruburt must go further. Seth is always there between us to help in this procedure.

(Pause.) Your own world, from my perspective, does not exist in the way I am sure it exists for you. Your camouflages are not clear to me, though I understand what they mean to you.

I am not telling you that individuality does not exist, that it is an illusion, and that therefore I do not perceive it. I am telling you that you do not perceive your own individuality as a whole identity.

I can perceive many other systems similar to your own. I cannot with any ease or facility enter into them in any familiar manner however, to experience camouflage as you do. (Pause.) This does not mean of course that I am not aware of you.

(Pause, eyes open, then closed.) I am not always aware of the you that you feel yourself to be, however. (Pause.) Seth has told me that in some future, in your terms, he would help me in this regard; bringing me closer, he said, for a good look. If so, you should probably know it.

I am speaking of my natural position. I can alter my viewpoint in which case your system becomes much clearer to me.

(Humorously:) I am the loudest one—

—and I am the one who looks in on you. (Pause.) I will not keep you. Ruburt is doing well however with this development. Do you have any questions for me? I do not mind answering them.

Indeed. I am not taking the background seat, you see, but we want Ruburt to learn to extend.
