“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The session did begin in a new way. At 9 PM Jane was sitting opposite me at our living room table, where I take my notes. She took off her glasses as usual, but instead of rising to begin pacing about the room she remained seated. Her eyes were closed, and remained closed whenever she delivered material throughout the evening. Her voice was normal, her delivery rather rapid but with pauses. For the most part she sat with one leg drawn up, an arm resting upon the knee, her hand to her head as though propping it up. She held a lighted cigarette in the other hand.

(Jane’s delivery of the above material had been somewhat slow and hesitant, but clear. It gave me the feeling of being uneven, but I note that the typewritten copy reads as well as any of the other material. Her head was down much of the time, as though she might fall asleep. Her voice did not lose volume. She appeared to be restless now, shifting about on her chair. Some of the pauses between phrases were indeed quite long.)

(Jane used several long pauses delivering the above paragraph. One of them was so long I thought she had fallen asleep. She sat motionless on her chair, her head resting upon one hand. Yet her diction was very clear.)

(Break at 9:45. Jane’s eyes immediately opened as her head came up. She looked sleepy, and reached for her glasses. She did not smoke or drink during delivery. She said her state of dissociation was deeper, that she was “way out.” She heard her voice however, and my answers. She was surprised at the amount of time that had passed. She remembered the pauses, but had thought they were “nothing.”
