“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Note that the words EASTERN and ROADS appear twice, and that they tally with an answer given us by Frank Watts during the second session, December 4/63. See page 14. This might not be unusual, though the words in this context are a bit out of the ordinary; and Jane and I wonder whether these, repeated twice among what seems to be gibberish and other unrelated words, might not be the first groping attempts of Frank Watts to make contact with us.

(We were a little more hopeful of obtaining results on the board after getting the few jumbled words on November 26/63. Jane and I sat facing each other with the board on our laps, hands on the pointer but asking no questions. We wanted to see what developed, if anything. Slowly the pointer began to move.)

([Jane asked] “Are you there, Edgar Cayce?”)

(To date, this is one of but three answers Jane and I have received that seems to be gibberish. See pages 4 and 8. We did not pursue these questions at the time. All of this was such a novel experience for us that we did not know whether to probe deeper, or continue. We chose to continue.

(Here Jane and I had the feeling the session might be over. The pointer hovered near the word Good-bye on the board. We wanted to continue, of course.

(“Frank Watts, do you, Jane and I have any mutual acquaintances?”)

(“Do Jane and I have any mediumistic ability?”)

(“Jane is writing a book on her theory of the world as idea construction. Do you know about this?”)

(“Frank Watts, is Jane receiving your thoughts now, besides your answers as you spell them out on the board?”)

(Jane had remarked that several times during the session, she appeared to know what the answer to my questions would be, before the board spelled them out.

(“Will Harcourt Brace be the first publisher Jane will show her book to?”)

(The pointer indicated the above message after Jane and I had talked of being very tired. We had also been wondering how successful we would be at resuming this contact when next we tried.
