“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane and I sat for the session at about 9:15. At 9:25 she abruptly told me that she’d just “received” the title of a book I am to write: Through My Eyes. She was very surprised — and so was I. At first, Jane said, she interpreted her information [from Seth?] to mean that I would be writing a chapter with that title for one of her own books. But then she quickly realized that this is to be a work of my own.

(It’s supposed to express my views of the Seth experience, and how it has influenced or changed my ideas on art, life, and so forth. Then, as Jane told me about all of this, she announced that Seth was coming through right away — a most unusual procedure as far as our regular sessions are concerned. She took off her glasses….)

(“Are you?” I tried to bait Seth a little here.)

(9:42. “I’m so surprised I haven’t even put my glasses back on yet,” Jane exclaimed after she’d come out of trance. Neither of us have been thinking of such a project, which isn’t to say the idea of my doing a book involving Seth, at least in part, hasn’t occurred to me occasionally.

(“I’m really surprised when something like this happens to me in a session,” Jane said. “It’s so different from what I’ve been thinking about, or doing. I can see a center section of the book right now, with your illustrations. And I can see Seth’s portrait on the back cover.” She pointed over her right shoulder to where the painting — which is reproduced in The Seth Material — hangs on our living room wall just in back of her rocker.

1. For more extensive material on Seth Two, see Chapter Seventeen of The Seth Material, and Chapter Twenty-two of Seth Speaks. In the latter Seth tells us: “Seth Two stands relatively in the same position to me as I stand to the woman [Jane] through whom I am now speaking.”

2. Jane referred here to the deleted part of tonight’s session, and Seth’s discussion therein of the work we are to do in translating early Speaker material: “The Speaker manuscripts are in your future, and will involve as I told you considerable work — a labor of love.” See the notes following the 623rd session in Chapter Five. Also consult Chapter Seventeen in Seth Speaks.

(10:27. Jane’s pace had been good. This was the end of book work. After break Seth delivered two pages of data for Jane and me, and the session ended at 11:01 p.m.)
