“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At the time I noticed my hand phenomena, our cat Willy began to charge about the premises in a most active display. At the same time, Jane said that she thought she felt Seth stirring about, since all of us had talked about him constantly for some time now. I readied my pens and paper, just in case.

Roarck, in one of his past existences, was concerned with just such problems. However the society with which he was involved was of course seeped in its own ignorance, as your society is seeped in its now.

Now, before poor maligned Joseph’s hand falls off through sheer weariness, I will end our brief session, as always with my own regrets.

The phrases were three and four words long.

There is much more to be said here. Even now until the almost immediate present, Roarck has followed in this life his esthetic leaning.

(I did think to myself: “Well now, she’s having trouble with that window, but I’ll open it for her. Not only that, I’ll do it while I’m standing right here—by mental power. She’ll be surprised.” My actual thoughts would closely parallel this dialogue.
