“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At 4:45 PM, while talking to Jane in the kitchen as she prepared supper, I experienced the now familiar feeling of enlargement in my right hand. It centered in my palm, and my index and second fingers. I immediately thought it might be an inner sense telling me that Seth was around.

(At 8:30 Jane and I tried psychological time. Jane did not notice anything; I obtained the results detailed on page 48.

(By 8:50 Jane was nervous as usual. Willy slept on the couch. I had paper tapes ready to check Jane’s finger circumferences if the occasion arose. Jane began dictating at 9 PM in a soft and low voice. her eyes darkened as usual and her pace was slow.)

(Break at 9:27. Jane was fairly dissociated. The above material now made us wonder whether my vision of the girl and the dog was also a journeying. See page 39. We made mental notes to ask Seth about it if he did not bring up the subject himself.

(Jane resumed dictating in her quiet voice at 9:31.)

(Break at 10:00. Jane was dissociated as usual. Usually it take her until second break to reach full dissociation, she said.

(Jane laughed. She was still rocking back and forth, her eyes closed, her hands crossed at her waist.)

(Jane was still peacefully rocking.)

(Again Jane laughed. She was still rocking.)

(Now Jane’s eyes opened. She appeared to be fully alert. She remained seated as she ended the session.)

(“Good night, Seth.” End at 10:23. Jane said she had been dissociated to a greater degree than ever before while in the rocker, but that it still was not a state of deep trance. She had not been worried. Her thought at the time had been that she wasn’t sure how far Seth would go with the trance state.

(The voice was not Jane’s, although it was similar in range. Yet it was also higher, and somehow formal too. I do not know anyone, male or female, who calls me Robert, (least of all in that manner), nor did the voice remind me of anyone I might know, no matter how slightly.

(Shirley White, in the summer of 1964, corner of Walnut & Water. She called to me from a car making a left turn off the Walnut Street bridge, by Water St. Jane & I were standing on the lawn by our apartment house. When I heard Shirley call me I had my thrilling sensation. Yet, because the setting was different I was not sure this was it, & doubted the connection. Did not ask Seth. Still not sure, Dec. 1964, but note this down to retain it. This is the only time that I know of, so far, when someone has called me Robert. The manner of the call was very much like my psy-time experience.
