“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Regardless of the field of reality from which the data is received, to a large extent the mechanisms are the same. It is only because so-called mediumship is more unusual than simple perception that it appears so striking. Ruburt, reading from a book, would still have to receive and translate that information without knowing the endless manipulations necessary. The same sort of inner calculations would have been involved by the author of the book.

If it were not creatively transformed into writing however he felt, as a child, threatened, for he would be accused of telling lies.

Changes in the physical structure of the species will always follow inner need, and the inner need is anticipated from the beginning of the seed. Therefore large portions of the brain, now unused, lie latent for these developments. So-called psychics put some of these portions to work. Otherwise information such as ours would not be received clearly enough to be understood.

You remember this from our material on action and the personality. The ego therefore is pleased when information is proven correct. (Long pause.) If the nature of perception were clearly understood then the nature of reality as you know it would also be understood much more clearly. Only half the process of perception, so-called, is even considered, however. Only half of the circle is known. The entire circle consists of those projections outward that form events, as well as the mechanisms by which the events are then physically perceived.
