“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] I remembered Seth’s material on why the stomach acts up, and ascribed my upset last night to further worry over Jane. [...] The mere suggestion and information from Seth himself has already helped a great deal. [...]

[...] I reminded her that yesterday Seth had said the right leg discomfort was only temporary. [...]

(“Good afternoon, Seth.”)

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(While walking downtown this afternoon Jane received several messages from Seth.)

(Several times in recent sessions Seth has told us that Jane is to hear from someone in Wisconsin, relative to a publishing venture and/or her ESP book, but nothing has developed yet.)

(“Good evening, Seth.”

[...] Now at my request Seth gave over a few paragraphs to what I think is a very perceptive interpretation of a dream I had had last night. I’d told Jane this morning that I knew the dream was quite significant in connection with the work we’re doing with the Seth material, but that I was unable to adequately decipher it. [...]

(Jane has really made an effort to recognize, study, and follow her impulses since Seth began emphasizing them two sessions ago in Mass Events. [...]

[...] “Seth’s been telling us to be alert for negative Freudian and Darwinian beliefs — and suddenly I’m surrounded by my own. [...]

[...] Jane had no idea of most of the material in the session — that is, she hadn’t known Seth was going to deliver it. Now, however, she remembered that just before the session she’d picked up the idea that Seth would mention effortlessness in connection with her own situation.)

[...] Now she waited impatiently for Seth to come through: At first I’d thought she would pass up the session. [...]

(“Thank you, Seth.”

[...] “Yet I feel as though I’ve been doing things there — perceiving in a different way while Seth was giving the session.” She also felt that Seth had translated some of those now-forgotten experiences into the session’s material.

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(“Thank you, Seth.”

[...] I’ve also developed the habit of repeating Seth’s quote from my own body, as he gave it in the deleted session for April 18: “You worry too much. [...]

(“Thank you, Seth. [...]

[...] Jane has had many welcome signs of improvement within the last week or two; I thought it best that she continue doing her own thing that way, with help from Seth at the end of the regular sessions.)

(“Thank you, Seth. [...]

(“Good afternoon, Seth.”)

[...] When I turned her on her side at about 4:50, and massaged her with Oil of Olay, I did as Seth had suggested—gently working her right leg back and forth several times. [...]

(I appreciated Seth’s comments on my use of the pendulum. [...]

(Previous to the material given below, Seth delivered five pages of personal data for Jane and me. [...]

[...] Now Seth-Jane leaned forward, smiling with mock emphasis.)

(“The same to you, Seth. [...]

(We did not press Seth for an item-by-item interpretation of the rest of the impressions. I had prepared this test envelope for last Wednesday’s session but did not use it then; the session was witnessed by the Gallaghers and the test was shoved aside by other developments, notably the impromptu discussion between Seth, Bill and Peg. [...]

[...] Seth referred to this in the last session briefly. [...]

[...] We talked of illustrating Jane’s book on the Seth material, which she is now writing.

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(I wasn’t at all sure, but I wondered whether Seth’s second delivery might have been in response to the talk Jane and I had had recently, in which I’d tried to explain my own ideas about the extent to which one could go with personal challenges like illness, say, or work, or whatever. Some of it had been based upon bits of Seth material that had come through lately, along with my own long-standing ideas. [...]

[...] Her Seth voice was surprisingly strong, with the usual pauses.)

[...] She had been aware throughout the session of Seth’s stronger voice and more forceful delivery. [...]

(“Your readers certainly don’t expect that of you,” I said, explaining that I was keeping in mind Seth’s recent statement that both of us had decided upon our joint experiences, wanting and not wanting the symptoms at the same time. [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Jane, as Seth, took a lengthy pause as a fire engine passed the house, its siren screaming.)

(In the ESP class session of February 9, 1971, Seth gave an excellent account of the particular aspect of his perceptions that I was referring to now. [...]

[...] I am familiar with the inner portions of your selves that you also know, however, but that the egotistical self has hidden from you, and so I must think constantly to myself: ‘Oh, yes, our Lady of Venice [Seth’s affectionate term for a class member] thinks that she sits in this specific room at this specific hour, and is wearing a blue outfit.’

(At the supper table tonight Jane and I discussed our painting and writing, and said we hoped Seth would discuss several problems that had arisen in these fields. [...]

(Jane began speaking for Seth in her usual manner; voice on the quiet side, a few pauses, eyes open often, etc.)

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Jane came out trance easily, but said that once again it had been a deep one as has been the rule lately, and that even now at break she could feel Seth’s energy.

[...] She said she almost didn’t bother to tell me about it, that she wasn’t sure it was from Seth. She didn’t hear it clearly within as she ordinarily would if it was a message from Seth before a session was to begin. [...]

[...] She said Seth had been trying to get the above paragraph in all evening. Jane was obviously tired now, so I told Seth we’d hear from him next Monday as usual. [...]

(The letter Seth referred to was one from Jane’s publisher, received today, concerning her book on ESP. [...]

[...] Recovering my wits by now and realizing that the name Mark referred to Bill’s entity name, given to us by Seth at our seance, I went to the door and opened it. [...]

(Jane, as Seth, smiled as she referred to Dr. Instream. [...] Many sessions ago, as many as a hundred or more, Seth told us that animal pets would reflect the psychic health and concerns of their owners.

(Many sessions ago also, Seth told me that my Christmas doldrums stemmed from something that happened to me many years ago. [...] Seth promised to go into it but we became sidetracked on other matters last year. [...]

(It will be remembered that in the 194th session Seth promised to discuss in the 195th session our cat’s rather frequent if brief bouts of illness. [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Seth had given us on the condition of Miss Callahan. [...] To me this implied that Miss Callahan was in better condition, but Jane said she felt otherwise, that Seth’s material here was not distorted.

(Miss Dineen gave Jane information evidently confirming Seth’s prediction that April 15 would be a day of crisis for Miss Callahan. Without going into all the details about Seth, Jane learned from Miss Dineen that in the middle of that week, which would be on April 15, Miss Callahan’s condition became so bad that hospital officials insisted she be moved to a rest home as soon as possible. [...]

[...] By 8:50 this evening Jane was nervous, as usual, having no idea of Seth’s subject matter for the session.

(“Good evening, Seth.”

(At 9:30 she told me Seth might go into my dream of May 27—yesterday—in which I drove an automobile down West Water St. at 90 miles per hour, without harm. [...]

(Our dream discussion before the session led me to voice a question about dreams that I don’t think Seth has covered in just that way. [...]

[...] “What good does it do for Seth to go into me? [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

[...] Once again Jane’s delivery for Seth had been steady and forceful. [...] Even as limited as we are as human beings, I think we’ve latched onto some ideas, through Seth, that are vitally important….”

[...] It’s interesting to note that Seth completed Chapter Eighteen, concerning our psychic creation of the environment [including earthquakes, of course] a week before our guest’s arrival. [...]

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(“Good night, Seth. [...]

(By 8:55 PM Jane was uncomfortable and nervous because she didn’t know what Seth was going to talk about. [...] She reminded me of Seth’s suggested phrase to bring her out of the trance state every half-hour, should she show signs of remaining in it for longer periods.

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(“Good night, Seth.”

[...] She said Seth’s bravo referred to the fact that she is acquiescing in the new developments during the sessions; namely, delivering the material while sitting down and with her eyes closed.)

[...] If memory serves, Seth said a long time ago that Jane did not have arthritis, but for her own reasons was mimicking her mother’s disease. Jane is really bothered, though, and we trust that Seth was correct in the last session when he said this phase of Jane’s symptoms would soon pass. [...]

(I showed Jane a copy again of my dream of April 23, and asked that Seth discuss it this evening, since I was sure it contained at least some positive omens for her.

(“Thank you, Seth. [...]

[...] I mentioned in a fairly mild way some of the questions I had for Seth, saying I didn’t want to pass judgment too quickly on a given concept or idea like the Sinful Self. [...]
