JJ Dewey:
As [Joseph Smith] examined the Papyri in question the name Abraham came to him as a seed thought and this guided his meditation. During this reflection he was transported back to the consciousness of an ancient prophet and wrote from his mind through the Oneness Principle ...

Was this perhaps what some call reading the "Akashic record"? The reason I ask is because you have written before that the Oneness Principle mostly involves principles vs. facts. For example at the 2002 Gathering you said:
"The Oneness Principle is like a spiritual internet. Through the spiritual internet, through extra-sensory communication, when the door to the soul is open, you can tune in to this spiritual internet and attain any knowledge that's in any of the minds of the Masters and also any of the knowledge that's available to humanity. But because the soul speaks in a little different language than humanity, the soul speaks in the language on principles. So by tuning into the spiritual internet you aren't so likely to get data of facts given to you but will receive principles instead."
JJ:
The most basic use of the Oneness Principle is the bringing down of ideas and principles, but as one tunes more finely into it, impressions can come as if it were packages of memory. When this happens, as it did with Joseph Smith, the impressions are then placed in the disciples own words. This is where the imperfections arise. The only way to read an inspired work without error is for the reader to be tuned into the universal mind.
