“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The cells are also aware of probabilities in a more familiar fashion than you are, as they manipulate the past and future history of the body. Ruburt now, again, is experiencing massiveness, as in your idea of probabilities the cellular structure feels its vast endurance. Working with events not even real to you, it produces a physical structure that maintains identity and predictability out of a vastly creative network. That network is unpredictable, yet from it Ruburt can predictably put ashes into that shell. (Jane held up her favorite ashtray, the abalone shell we’d found in Baja California in 1958, and tapped some ashes into it from her cigarette.) The predictability of that gesture rests upon the basis of an unpredictability, in which multitudinous other actions could have occurred, and in other realities do occur.

“Now: Often precognitive information will appear to be wrong. In some cases this is because a self has chosen a different probable event for physical materialization [than the one predicted]. I have access to the field of probabilities and you do not, egotistically…. To me, your past, present, and future merge into one.

“On the other hand, as I have told you, you change your past continually. It does not appear to change to you, for you change with it … You alter your future in the same manner. In such cases it is necessary that the correct channel of probable events be perceived — correct meaning the channel which shall be ultimately chosen [for actualization by the subject] .

“I can, therefore, perceive far more than you can of your own future. I am hardly omnipotent, however. Nor, strictly speaking, is such omnipotence possible.”
