“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

For many reasons at various periods in your time there has been particular work to be done requiring numbers, a broad stratum, a physical pool, that would serve as a basis for future generations. In many such instances there is a ferment of activity, a birth of new ideas, and an unstructured psychic activity, that is freewheeling and explosive.

And so in the present circumstance the overcrowded conditions will still be further accelerated, until a new synthesis is formed—and it will be. The psychic activity engendered will finally form the basis for a greater understanding. It will be quite obvious that telepathic thoughts travel quicker than good news or faster than a pestilence. Man will be so shoved together that the impact will literally explode into a new level of consciousness, a new development in those terms.

There have been changes through your ages that have given birth to enlarged or expanded consciousness. The oversaturation of your atmosphere that will be brought about as a result of overpopulation, the increased psychic activity, the greater communications, will have the result further of pressing inward upon the individual until he is forced to find a new way to handle stimuli, and to respond to events.

A concentration will occur. When atoms and molecules are heated certain changes happen. When they are artificially crowded certain changes happen. When they are frozen certain changes happen, and when the psychic atmosphere is saturated there will be a metamorphosis of a kind and a release of abilities that have been latent.
