“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Because of illness on my part this is our first session since March 22; thus we missed the regularly scheduled sessions of March 24, March 29 and March 31. This is the longest gap in the flow of the material since the sessions began on December 2, 1963. Both of us were eager to resume. Jane remarked last night that the enforced layoff was making her rather nervous. It was, she said, the same kind of nervousness she used to experience before each session, during the early months.

(Once again the session was held in our secluded back room. Jane spoke while sitting down, and with her eyes closed. She does not wear her glasses at all during sessions now. Her voice was quiet, her initial pace rather slow. Her delivery speeded up as the session progressed, and her voice became somewhat louder.)

(For some other examples of the psychic power of negative expectations, see the 9th, 15th and 17th sessions, involving Jane and me at York Beach, Maine. Also see the 17th and 66th sessions for material on the death of our dog, Mischa.

The conditions of our sessions allow us, on the one hand, more freedom, and on the other hand more control. Also they add to the value of the sessions themselves. We will have much more to say concerning the limitless self, in connection with action.

The material, our material, will indeed be published. A firm but not too impatient attitude is the most beneficial on your parts.

(This information came through, I presume, because earlier I had been joking with Jane about making up the sessions we had missed. I doubt if it is possible; our daily routine is busy enough now.

(Our host of visitors during my illness was another subject we’d hoped Seth would discuss this evening. From March 24 to April 2, Jane and I received a total of 21 visits from 16 different individuals. Of these 16, 7 had witnessed sessions. Some of the visits lasted for hours and left Jane very tired.

(Since the visitors began to appear on the first day I was in bed and within a matter of hours, Jane and I soon thought it more than coincidence. We had 4 visitors the first day, 3 the second day, 5 the third day, 4 the fourth day, etc. Moreover two of our first four visitors, Sonja Carlson and Louis D’Andreano, were from out of town.

And now my best regards to you both. I am glad that we resume our sessions once again. Ruburt had a vacation of sorts, but I will see that there is action enough for him now.
