“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Break at 10:57. John Bradley reported that Seth as he went along began to answer each question he—John—thought of as soon as it came to mind. Jane and I suggested to John that he write a statement as a witness to the session. Break ended just as John, trying to get entity names versus personality names straightened out, was wondering how to address Seth in his statement. Resume at 11:05.)

I always delight, if you will forgive me, in astounding the present personalities of acquaintances by letting them know that I have known them before. It is a failing of mine but I enjoy it. And you, Philip, were twice a woman and once a Moor of some considerable stature, as well as the personality in Boston which I have already related.

Such inner data makes its impression upon the physical brain and changes the personality as does any experience. In many cases such inner experience is retained in your memory cells. If you would simply for once, and for once Joseph I am not referring to you particularly, if you would for once demonstrate an openness and a willingness to accept such data on its own basis, without insisting upon evidence from the regular senses, then and only then will you have evidence that the outer senses can recognize.

John-Philip is correct, and our schedule should be maintained. Personally I have no objections to an extra session for Ruburt’s publisher, but I will not condone less than two regular sessions a week, except for circumstances beyond your control.

My dear Joseph, one word only: I would not leave you with the impression that I am truly displeased, or that I judge you unjustly. I do not want to hurt Ruburt’s feelings, and I have avoided making this statement thus far; however, for purely personal reasons I have been emotionally more involved with you in past instances. And I know your capabilities so well that when I seem severe it is only because I wish so for your happiness and success.

(In bed finally, Jane received two brief notes from Seth, rather incomplete. The first concerned condensed time; that is, in what may be a split second to the entity, the incarnated personality will experience a time duration of say, 70 years. The second note was a joke of sorts: Just because Seth apologized, I was not to get a big head.
