“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(While taking a nap late this afternoon, Jane had the dream detailed page 139.

(Reading some of the recent sessions on dreams earlier today, Jane got the idea that Seth would talk about dreams this evening.

(Jane did some work on one of her paintings last night. She later told me that while working on it she felt quite uneasy. The feeling lasted for some time. No definite thoughts came to her about the sense of unease, and she had difficulty putting it into words.

(And this certainly seems to fit the mood Jane was in last night.)

(Jane’s voice now became much louder, briefly.)

(Break at 9:30. Jane was dissociated, she said, but not to her usual degree. When she began dictating again she maintained her deliberate and rather determined manner; at the same time she spoke a little faster. Resume at 9:35.)

(Here, I abruptly had a coughing spell as I attempted to swallow a sip of milk. It was rather severe and I had to stop my taking of notes. Jane waited quietly, watching me while I tried to breathe. Perhaps a minute passed.)

(Break at 9:43. Jane was this time more fully dissociated, she said. She felt “funny” when I started to cough, since even though she stopped dictation she still felt suspended between the trance state and the regular state of being. She said she couldn’t pull out of the trance easily until she said we should take a break. She wasn’t able, for instance, to quickly run over to try to help me. As far as I can recall this is the first time an interruption of this kind has occurred during her dictation.

(Again without her glasses, Jane resumed at 9:48.)

(Break at 10:15. Jane was fully dissociated this time. My writing hand was also tiring, since her rate of dictation had continued to be fast.

(Jane had been delivering the material while pacing barefoot around the room. At one point she inadvertently knocked her foot against a metal coffee table leg. The blow made a good noise and I expected her to break off dictation, or at least wince. However she continued on as though nothing had happened. She now told me she felt her foot strike the leg of the table, but that ordinarily it would have bothered her a lot more than it did.

(Jane resumed in a slightly slower fashion, with more pauses. She laughed as she began, and this accompanied her remarks concerning her practice of psychological time. Resume at 10:19.)

(End at 10:32. Jane was dissociated as usual.)
