“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(During sessions now, Jane sits in our rocker across from my writing table. She usually faces our big bay window. Beneath the window is a heater, covered by a metal window seat. At times this “seat” becomes too hot to touch. At times also, Jane sits with her feet propped up on this seat while dictating. Checking, she discovered that while in her usual position with her feet up, the burn coincided exactly with the edge of the seat. I had wondered at times about the seat becoming too hot, but had taken it for granted that Jane automatically lowered her feet when it became too warm. Evidently she had neglected to do so, at least once, yet had felt no pain. I would also remember had the session been interrupted by her. Both of us have speculated about whether she is less sensitive to pain while in her trance state.

(There came a knock upon the door. At times I had wondered how Jane would react to an interruption while in her new and deeper state. I now had at least one answer: Her body jumped in her chair, and her eyes popped open as though from shock. For a moment she appeared to be disoriented. Then she answered my query to the effect that she was all right.

(Bill Macdonnel, who has witnessed several sessions, was at the door. He remained for the balance of the session. Jane had thought Seth would continue the interruption as our first break, but shortly she announced he wanted to continue. When she resumed her voice was abruptly quite a bit deeper and stronger, and it remained so for the balance of the session. Resume at 9:17.)
