“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Neither Jane or I felt well, but we also didn’t want to dispense with the session unless we had to, or Seth decided to.

(Break at 10:09. Jane was dissociated as usual. She did not remember the material, and delivered it with many pauses intermingled, some of them quite long. Both of us felt much better than when the session began.

(End at 10:45. Jane was well dissociated. This last delivery was much more rapid. Jane said she felt carried away, as she had been in the Father Trainor episode. See pages 261-63. This took place on February 11, 1965. During this experiment, while reading some poetry aloud that the now-dead Father Trainor had often read to her when she was in high school, Jane’s voice had taken on an enormous male volume and strength. To me it had sounded alien. Jane said it was Father Trainor’s voice, at times, or a close approximation. I can only say it was not the Seth voice; I had never known Father Trainor.

(Jane said that tonight her voice felt as though it was being projected out of her as she dictated, that she was swept along by energy other than her own, “like a sail filled with wind.” The voice was all around her, she said, yet she had no sense of invasion. She was very pleased at recognizing the feeling of the Father Trainor episode. She felt supported, like flying, yet not disembodied.

(Jane said that as soon as she resumed her seat she felt carried away. She entered the state more rapidly than she would like. Also, the end came so quickly that she found herself groping briefly, in an effort to “put herself together again.” The experience made her uneasy.
