“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This is good data also. Jane knew my father had belonged to the Lions Club. She did not know Dr. Martin was also a member, or that my father had been secretary of the club, and consequently handled money in the form of dues. I remember the big book my father used to keep the record of the club members’ dues, etc. In fact, my father and Dr. Martin were charter members of the Sayre Lions Club, initiated many years ago.

(The material given above, aside from the specific points verified by me, is typical of possible situations involving my parents and the Martins, who were good friends in those days. I saw many similar situations evolve and resolve themselves, involving my parents, the Martins, and a few other couples who moved in the same circle.

(“No,” Jane said, “it’s not Gale, it’s something windy, it’s that Dr. Martin. I always think of him as a windbag. He was going to the meeting with your father.”

[...] A negative response dealing with Dr. Martin. Some, to me, indistinct connection between the strange young woman here with your friends, and Emma Martin. [...] Dr. Martin and his wife visited your parents. You cried, and you clearly heard Emma Martin tell your mother that she should not go to you, and then you would be quiet.

(Dr. and Emma Martin are old friends of my parents, and their age—early seventies, or nearly so. [...] As soon as Seth mentioned it, I immediately saw a distinct resemblance between Emma Martin, as she had been, and the young girl Pat. [...]

[...] The girl reminded you, through some association, with Emma Martin of that time.

[...] I do not want our friend here (Martin Crocker) to feel as he feels that he is cramping your style. [...]

Now as Ruburt said earlier, he (Martin) is a good man and besides that I like him. [...]

(To Martin) Now what I said to you earlier did not refer to the meeting. [...]

(The name of Father Martin came up in the conversation. [...]

Your acquaintance, Father Martin, will work out well if arrangements can be made. [...]

I would definitely speak to this Father Martin before approaching anyone else, simply because his attitude would enable him to work well with us, I believe that he may be available, though not for any long period. [...]

[...] This lead Ruburt to think of a note he wrote but did not send, to Father Martin. [...] Father Martin is a monk in a nearby monastery close to Elmira, and the author of letter #2, possibly enclosed by the envelope object, is Rhoda Monks.

(Jane did write Father Martin a letter on December 2,1965 that she never mailed. [...] Father Martin was a doctor before entering the religious life; he knows of the sessions but has not witnessed any or read the material. [...]

[...] This leads Ruburt to think of a note he wrote but did not send, to Father Martin. [...]

(Reverend Crosson has met many of the leading figures in parapsychology, including Eileen Garrett, Arthur Ford, Martin Ebon, etc. [...]

4. Martin Luther, the German theologian and translator of the Bible, lived from 1483 to 1546. [...]

[...] Those who stood in the positions of King (Martin Luther) and of both Kennedys bring the inner psychic problems to a head. [...]

After the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., my students in class were quite upset, and like many people throughout the country and probably the world, we began to discuss the meaning of violence. [...]

(The monk mentioned by Seth refers to our friend Father Martin, who is mentioned in the 212th session. Apropos of this, Jane now said she remembered that Seth’s use of the word missionary did set up her own chain of association involving Father Martin. [...]
