“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Ace seemed to like the outline idea for a book on ESP that Jane sent to them. What do you think of that?”)

(“In what year did she die?”)

(“What was the image our friend Bill Macdonnel saw in the rocking chair, in his bedroom in Niagara Falls, in December of 1961?”)

(“All right Seth, what do you think of Jane’s answer?”)

The entity operates its fragments in what you would call a subconscious manner, that is, without conscious direction. (Jane dictates:) The entity gives the fragment independent life, then the entity more or less forgets them. When a momentary lapse of control happens they both come face to face. It’s as impossible for the entity to control fragment personalities as for the conscious mind to be aware, or control its own heartbeat. In this case the image concerned was a past fragment.

Of course. I will try to think of a good analogy to make this point clearer later. Even thoughts, for instance, are fragments, though on a different plane. (Jane dictates:) They have to be translated into physical reality. Fragments of another sort, called personality fragments, operate independently, though under the auspices of the entity.

Is what right?

(“What do you think of that attempt, Seth?”)

(“One what?”)

(“Seth, this morning when I asked Jane what chlorophyll was, she replied that it was a mental enzyme. Is that correct?”)
