“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

SESSION 862, JUNE 25, 1979
8:37 P.M. MONDAY

(Jane and I have had two most pleasant surprises since Seth gave the 860th session on June 13. We’d expected both events, but not so soon. On the 14th we received from Prentice-Hall our complimentary copies, just off the press, of Seth’s Psyche; then on the 18th we received Volume 2 of “Unknown” Reality.

(Last Wednesday night’s regularly scheduled book session wasn’t held because we had unexpected visitors after supper. They left late enough so that Jane decided to skip the session, even though earlier in the day she’d written notes on material that Seth had mentally informed her he’d cover.

(Tonight, Jane repeated an idea she’d started talking about before holding the 861st nonbook session just a week ago: She thinks Seth is in the process of finishing Mass Events. “Not in the next couple of sessions, but he’s heading that way. He’s given all he can — or wants to — on the negative beliefs we hold as individuals and societies; he wants to start his next book [my emphasis] on how to positively work our way out of our challenges and create a much better world…. You know — that material I’ve been telling you about, on therapy and value fulfillment. I was even messing around with book titles today, though I know I shouldn’t do that.”¹

(Jane felt like beginning the session earlier than usual. A good portion of it is deleted, however, since Seth discussed other subjects before coming through with material for Mass Events at 9:09.)

End of session. A fond good evening — and my hurrahs to Ruburt (Jane).

(9:40 P.M. Jane said that in his dictation this evening, Seth covered some of the information she’d picked up from him nonverbally, then written about prior to the session that wasn’t held last Wednesday night. “But there’s also more there he didn’t get into yet.”)

NOTES: SESSION 862

1. Just before giving the 861st session last week, Jane received from Seth some intriguing material on the idea that in psychological therapy, the good intents and impulses beneath the client’s emotional and physical hassles should be searched out by the analyst. She made some notes about the information. It was very promising material, she told me, and could help change conventional ideas of therapy. A book could actually be involved — Seth’s next — on “the therapy of value fulfillment.” She was quite excited by the new ideas she’d presented herself with.

Then in the 861st session itself — which was not for Mass Events, as stated — Seth briefly mentioned the material on ideals and impulses he’s been giving in recent book sessions. This in turn led him to comment on the notes Jane had just written. He certainly sounded as though he’d decided upon his next book:
