“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

([Joel:] “I guess in the beginning Jane and Rob were a little ambivalent as to whether they wanted to go and check the Frank Withers thing, and we have not made any attempt to check the stuff that Bill gave the first time—That I, in the ‘40s and having been a lawyer and went to Northwestern law school, practiced law in the Loop, that kind of thing. And Hazel last week stopped in Chicago on the way across country and got the address of the Bar Association and some other people, and we’re finally going to check this stuff. But I wondered if you could give us any information as to how we might go about it, or if the initial information was accurate, or if you can tell us anything that we ought to check into in particular?”)

Your problem is this. It is not important in the beginning whether or not the information checked for you were involved in the opening of new channels. To insist, therefore, that all the information be perfect, or your material has no value, is of course, a predicament that I hope you will not fall into. Do you follow me? Therefore, check the material for you will not feel happy unless you do, and then apply what I have told you. As you continue, your information will prove more and more checkable in the physical reality to which you presently ascribe, and if you are interested in that area then, indeed, it must to some extent bear a strong relationship to the reality that you know if you request it. If you demand that as part of the validity of what you are getting, then you will receive it, but do not rush. Allow yourself freedom and time. Do you follow me?

([Joel:] “Yes, I just wondered if you had any additional information perhaps that we might want to look into as we proceeded. I don’t think it’s the kind of thing, for example, if it doesn’t check out we are not going to say, ‘Well, Bill, you’re a fake, go away.”)
