“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At 8:55 PM Jane was still sitting out on the front steps; it had been a very hot day, and a busy one for us. By this time I was getting my papers together for the session. I took my usual place at our living room table, wondering whether Jane would appear on time. Just as I became comfortably seated she entered, saying that although she did not know the exact time she felt she should come upstairs.

(Earlier this evening the pendulum had told Jane we would have a witness for the session, but none had appeared. Jane was somewhat nervous by 8:59, though not anything like she used to be. She began dictating on time in a normal voice, and at a rather brisk pace. Her eyes darkened and she paced back and forth as usual. None of these attributes changed to any degree during the session.)

(Jane and I have been waiting without effort, yet with anticipation, for Seth to get to our personal experiments with psychological time. We have kept detailed records, and I have made at least a sketch of most of mine. Many of mine have been visual, while Jane seems to produce more audio effects. We have been aware, without making any detailed analysis of our own, due to lack of time for the study necessary, that our experiences with psy-time would probably fall into certain categories.)

(For the record, let it be known that our landlord, James Spaziani, has already looked at the house in question. He did so Sunday night, yesterday, unknown to Jane and me. Yesterday afternoon I had told Jimmy that Jane and I would value his opinion of the property, but no arrangements had been made as to when the three of us might get together to look the property over. Jimmy told me this afternoon that he had already seen the house.)

Ruburt’s emotional charge this evening is truly astounding. If I were at the other end of it I would duck for cover. In the past he was not as honest as he is now with himself, and in his younger years as an adolescent he would never allow himself to know exactly what he was angry at.

I would give you some more information on Ruburt’s position at the gallery. However, when he blocks me he really blocks me.

There can be no division here, even in our discussion, for simplicity’s sake; for such division would lead you far astray. You can see this more easily perhaps in terms of, say, gallstones or kidney stones, which are adverse constructions, projected by the individual because of psychological imbalance; that is, a confusion of inner purpose.

We should most probably here substitute brain for mind, since I believe that is the terminology upon which I decided to settle. Using again the arbitrary divisions, brain for the physical construction, and mind as the intangible, then to set the record straight brain would not sense the inner planes, while mind would deal with them.

I am truly amazed that Ruburt allowed me to come through on this last material so well, because of his mood this evening. I would also like to mention that our communication itself involves my use of such an overlapping point.

You might find our glass discussion, Joseph, evocative for your painting. I would like to add a personal note in the way of a suggestion only, that camping some weekends if you can manage it, will be most beneficial to you both, and should even refresh your abilities in your own particular art fields.
