His development began in your terms in such ancient times that for all intents and purposes you could say that in terms of value fulfillment he was so far advanced as to be alien entirely.

Now some personalities from one system aid other personalities within other systems, but highly developed personalities, those in your terms so far advanced, will set for themselves the task of aiding an entire civilization; of assisting the development of a new system, and sometimes initiating the existence of that system.

Now it is quite possible for the advanced personalities of which I have spoken to take upon themselves the camouflage of a particular system, enter it, become for, in quotes “a time” dependent upon its rules in order to help those who dwell within it; and this has been done on occasions too countless to mention.

[...] Long before the time of the Egyptians, now, there were sophisticated societies, utilizing some technologies and advanced in the arts of writing. But these civilizations were not organized around technology, so that the technological advances, while highly sophisticated, were not pursued with the same diligence as in your time, and they were considered novelties—playthings for the wealthy, advanced toys, but not considered in a serious light.

[...] As people lose the kind of ancestral roots that exist in “less advanced” societies, so many sophisticated civilizations, with rapid overturn of goods and products, with printing presses and writing upon fragile paper, are lost to history.

[...] Beside all of that, there were cultures advanced enough for space travel, before the numbering of your geological ages. [...]

[...] Advanced training with the inner senses can lead to such explorations however. Your friend is more advanced—his system is more advanced than yours in this respect. [...]

[...] (With my probable self and Dr. Pietra in another more advanced reality.) What happened was a very momentary merging on deeper-than-conscious levels.

[...] This particular, more advanced telepathy could not and did not occur in its most complicated form until the development within your plane of psychically developed personalities. [...] This development was an advancement, yet this advancement led also to a separation and objectifying of consciousness, into dual segments of subject and object.

([Tom:] “...Choice or advancement ... and advancement maybe.

[...] advances an occupation, I guess is the closest.

([Theodore:]“...Choice or advancement—and advancement maybe.”

[...] Taking it over into occupations, then, I don’t know how it would be—advances an occupation, I guess, is the closest.”

[...] One of Jane’s previous experiences in obtaining book material in advance — that on bridge beliefs — is described in the 644th session in Chapter Eleven. [...]

You are paying in advance for illness that you are certain will come your way. [...]

[...] Even more unfortunate are the special policies for the elderly that detail in advance all of the most stereotyped and distorted concepts about health and age. [...]

[...] When your training is further advanced, much further advanced, we may be able to take certain short cuts. [...]

As for another advancement you have made, beside dispensing with the material board—and this advancement has to do with the so-called flashes that Ruburt has received between sessions—he has achieved a state in which he can receive inner data from me more readily. [...]

There are many things I want to tell you tonight, and I wish to let you know that you have made certain advancements. [...]

[...] As science advances on various planes the inhabitants learn to travel between planes occasionally, while carrying with them the [camouflage] manifestations of their home stations …

[Many of] the flying saucer appearances come from [such] a plane, [one] that is much more advanced in technological sciences than earth at this time. [...]

First of all, the advances, the physical advances, and I will come to Ruburt’s physical condition, have come about because he is making certain advances psychologically.

[...] You have made some excellent advances. [...]

You are making enough advances so that I expect some more. [...]

[...] I should add here that the 105th session dealt with the death of Jane’s mother, as well as Jane living to an advanced age. [...]

(Experiments would be set up in advance of the death of either Jane or I, Seth said, that would furnish this convincing proof once one of us died. [...]

[...] For in a very dim manner, the psychedelic experience can give you some glimmerings as to the nature of these more advanced psychological structures.

[...] The personality structures of which I am speaking are far more advanced than this example. [...]

[...] I say here “of itself" because certain personalities will be advanced enough to use such an experience as a springboard into precisely these discoveries. [...]

[...] Usually we’re notified well in advance of a book’s publication, but not this time — if the event has actually taken place. [...]

[...] We will hope to show man’s origin as existing in an inner environment, and emphasize the importance of dreams in “evolutionary advancement,” and as the main origin of man’s most creative achievements.

[...] When you are having regular sessions, an occasional visitor will not annoy you, but such visits should be known in advance.

[...] Let it be known that anyone who wants to attend private sessions must then arrange so in advance. [...]

[...] Instead he is moving through those stances rather quickly, not feeling at rest in any of them as the body now advances toward an ordinary posture.

[...] I’m starting these notes in advance of tonight’s session without being really sure that Jane will hold one—although I think she plans to. [...]

[...] Once more, I know I’m on to something here, while agreeing in advance that I’ve expressed the insight in simplistic terms.”

(“The insight also reminds me of one of my questions for Seth: I plan to ask him for hints about what sort of ideas he would advance if he’s given the freedom to do so by Jane. [...]

This evening’s explosion on his part did represent an advance. [...]

I use the mechanism as I find it, and do not tamper with it, for any tampering would be reflected either in advancements that he was not prepared for, or in alterations for which he was not ready.

[...] You understand the nature of the entity, and you are advised by other portions of that entity, more “advanced” than yourself.
