“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I have mentioned a test and I will go into this in a moment, also to me the rather obvious cause of the glaring distortion. However, and I have emphasized this at times, because of our materials and methods of communication such distortions will almost of necessity occur now and then. We can only hope for their gradual disappearance, but we cannot force their disappearance. That is, you cannot. Outside of putting Ruburt in a deep trance, there is nothing that I can do along this line. And there you have it.

As for the test I mentioned. If there is any doubt in the future, for one thing check the portion of the material in which the doubtful statement is made. If this occurs in the very beginning of a session or at the very end, then do not panic. I truly have never seen such panic in such an instance as I saw on your face, dear Joseph.

There are other methods also, but they are lesser in importance and not relied upon generally. Someday we will have to have some tests, and for my pride among my associates I hope you come through. My method does involve the strong possibility of some distortions and the active cooperation of my students, but this presents a challenge to me rather than a detriment. I imagine that I myself will be the brunt of a few jokes because of tonight’s little misfortune.
