“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane felt quite tired before the session this evening. She had no idea of the subject matter for it. The weather was much cooler, and Willy napped in his chair. As session time approached Jane was so unenthusiastic that I made her coffee to help pep her up, at her request.

(When 9 PM arrived, Jane did not begin delivering but remained seated. She was not worried, however, and did begin at 9:02. Her voice was normal, her pacing regular, her eyes dark as usual. She did not vary much in her voice or pacing through the session.)

For one thing, Monday’s session hit him in the solar plexus, so to speak; and all joking aside, the session did take quite a bit out of him, simply because he was inclined to block the material, though he did not in most instances.

His initial attempt at kindliness at the gallery the following day took more out of him, although he quickly saw that my diagnosis of the situation there was correct.

(Break at 9:29. Jane was dissociated as usual. She still felt tired at break, she said, but all right while delivering the material. She resumed in the same manner at 9:35.)

(Break at 9:56. Jane was dissociated as usual. She had delivered the last break’s material while not wearing her glasses; she had paced as usual around the room, deftly avoiding furniture and other obstacles, in a way that ordinarily she would have had difficulty doing. She said being without glasses seemed to be no handicap.

(My writing hand felt no fatigue. During break I mentioned that I wondered whether Seth could tell us what Bill Macdonnel was doing on his vacation on Cape Cod., since we’d had but one card from him some time ago. The three of us had made plans to try some telepathic communication at certain times, but not hearing from Bill had sent these plans awry. See the 68th session, page 219.

I am leading up to the part that expectation plays in the construction of your physical environment, but you can see now why it was necessary that I explain the psychological perspective to you beforehand.

(Break at 10:28. Jane was dissociated as usual. She said she felt much better than when the session began. Again without her glasses, she resumed in the same manner at 10:33.)

Your friend has made two friends, one older and one approximately his own age, both male. He is of course, or has been, near water. He has been at a bar with a large keg in it. There are two houses nearby, and a front room across from a beach. There is a boat and dock. I also believe he was in a group with four men, maybe something to do with a string of shells, also.

(End at 11:03. Jane was dissociated as usual, although she said she was coming out of the state by the time she gave this last material on Bill Macdonnel. I had noticed that she spoke very carefully, almost guardedly, and she confirmed that she had done so, not wanting to make any errors.

(Sat. 8/1, 9 PM: I experienced my familiar thrilling sensation in a mild but definite way before and immediately upon lying down. Later, I noted the now familiar feeling of elevation again. First my left foot felt somewhat elevated, then my left hand, and finally the entire left side of my body. This rather pleasant and definite feeling had good duration; at one time I felt as though I was turned to lie upon my right side, so that my left side was raised up. The feeling varied in intensity at times, and along with it I had the thrilling sensation in various limbs.

(Toward the end of the experiment, I saw Jane enter my field of vision from the right side. She was smiling and wearing a white sleeveless blouse, and was followed by a young girl I do not know. Jane was walking on the other side of a long black shiny car hood; she looked at me, smiled and waved a greeting.
