There may be personalities which have not merely transcended substance, but are rid of it altogether: in all ages the theologian and the mystic have told of such "disembodied spirits," postulated by the one, felt by the other, and now the psychical investigator with his automatic writing and his cross-correspondences is seeking to give us rigorous demonstration of them.

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "There may be personalities which have not merely transcended substance, but are rid of it altogether: in all ages the theologian and the mystic have told of such "disembodied spirits," postulated by the one, felt by the other, and now the psychical investigator with his automatic writing and his cross-correspondences is seeking to give us rigorous demonstration of them." in the context of "Julian Huxley in: The Individual in the Animal Kingdom, Cambridge University Press, 22-Mar-2012, p. 30." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
