“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(On December 13 Jane came up with her best title yet for the book of poetry she’s putting together: If We Live Again: Love’s Lives and Probable Selves. She’s writing some excellent new poems for the book, besides working on God of Jane. My wife is also doing some poetry as a Christmas present for me—though she’s very secretive about this activity; I’m not supposed to know what she’s up to.

Jane called me at 8:30 to say that she was ready for the session. “I’d better get started,” she said. “Otherwise I might put it off, I’m getting so relaxed. I’ve been picking up some great stuff from Seth on the book, too….” And that’s why we missed the regularly scheduled session for last Wednesday evening: She became so relaxed she didn’t care to focus on going into trance.)

(Pause at 9:17. Once again, as it often has since she began dictating this book, Jane’s delivery for Seth had taken on a charged and inspired cast. The words in paragraphs like the one above rolled out of her in a strong and almost grand manner. It was easy to tell that she enjoyed working on Dreams—that she gave permission to be carried away if need be. Perhaps her method of presentation was in keeping with Seth’s own pronouncement at the beginning of his Preface, almost three months ago: “This book will be my most ambitious project thus far. Period.”)

(Jane delivered that whole paragraph with great flowing intensity, and I’ve punctuated it to the best of my ability just as it came through her. I don’t think I’ve ever heard her speak more eloquently for Seth, and with more certainty. This book has turned her on.)
