SESSION 37

(This afternoon John Bradley, who was our witness for the 26th session, stopped in to ask if he could be a witness for the session tonight. He also wanted to borrow my studio for an hour to make up a chart for one of his medical displays. He thought he might miss the beginning of the session while working in the studio, but the informality of the idea seemed good. Jane agreed when I picked her up after work.

(In a further effort to relax, Jane worked on a painting of her own until 8:30 PM. John arrived at 8:35 with his materials and a bottle of wine. After the glaring distortions of last session Jane had decided that she must relax, witnesses or no, so as the time for the session approached the radio still played, and we played with Willy, our cat, and exchanged banter with John.

(As session time arrived John was still busy in my studio. The doors were open from the living room though, and he could hear plainly. Promptly at 9 PM Jane rose to her feet and began dictating in a voice that was quite firm and clear, and somewhat stronger than her normal one.)

(During this session, Jane spoke with much emphasis. I have underlined a few words and phrases she seemed to pay special attention to. Seth began this session in a very positive manner, as though he would be all business this time, and kept at it hammer and tongs.)

(It will be remembered from the 26th session that Philip is the name of John Bradley’s entity, according to Seth.)

I am sorry that I cannot give him a review. However, I held up much material the past few sessions, as I dealt with fluttery Ruburt’s ego. I trust we have that sort of thing under control. The best thing when you are standing on a diving board is just to plunge in, Ruburt. This teetering back and forth, shall I jump or shan’t I, is done with, I hope. He jumps, so to speak, in the water— but he jumps, no one else. The element is different, and that is all.

(By now Jane’s voice had lost its first scathing tone, and softened somewhat. It will be remembered that in the 26th session Seth also mentioned that a present business acquaintance of John’s had been involved with John in a previous life, in Belgium in 1632.)

I suggest either a brief break of the end of the session, as you prefer.

(On the above date I attended a session, the 37th, with the principals Jane and Robbie Butts.

(During this session, while Seth was advising me he suggested that it would give me a great deal of satisfaction to pursue a hobby in electronics, a ham radio was his choice. He said I had innate ability in this field.

(Unknown to Jane, until I told her after the session, was my mental commitment to build a F. M. tuner and amplifier.
