“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(It might be added that this evening it had rained, and now the night was very hot and humid. The windows were open; from a neighbor’s house some distance away, we could hear a phonograph playing, the sound carrying clearly on the heavy air. Traffic noise also seemed much louder than usual. Jane, dictating, seemed to carry her head at an unusual angle, as though listening. Her delivery was by now very slow.)

(Jane had picked up a roll of copper tubing that we had not used on the table. Now she touched the left end of the tube as she held it before me.)

Now using the analogy again, in our mental enclosure we attempt to close off this channel of communication with the outer universe. So. This end we leave open.

Now this is what you attempt when you experiment with psychological time, when your communication comes through the inner rather than the outer senses. And all living consciousnesses initially enter your plane of awareness by route of such a mental enclosure.

All psychic energy comes through such a mental enclosure. Now, we are leading up to a point. You remember, I am sure, that I spoke of extension and contraction, along with other discussions on the inner senses. Communication with the inner self, communication with entities on another level can be approached from one or the other of two methods. The approaches are different, and one is more often tried than the other.

Now, it is only the initial approach which varies.

I will now bring the session to a close regretfully, and despite the incense and copper so thoughtfully presented. Indeed, under most circumstances they could prove beneficial, although with all good respects for what you have in mind, you would have to literally line the walls with copper in this room.

(Tonight John told us that on September 2 he was meeting at his home in Williamsport, PA, with his district manager, and that of course business was discussed. John has in the past applied for a transfer to the West. The company to date has not granted his request. Seth has dealt with the upheavals going on beneath the surface of Searle Drug in various sessions, and in some detail; they are continuing, John informs us. It now develops that John’s district manager is not too sure of his own job. Whether any actual plans affecting John were born at the meeting of September 2, time will tell.

(In the 84th session, September 2, Volume 2, pages 329 and 331, Seth stated that Jane was blocking “a picture of Philip,” Philip being Seth’s name for John’s entity. Without much thought Jane and I had taken the data given on this instance to refer also to John’s September 2 date, since by coincidence the 84th session also fell due on September 2. This evening John said that he’d had no “disagreement in a kitchen, involving two women and a man, with a child close by,” on September 2. So now we wonder whether the above incident is precognition, with the actual date being blocked by Jane, or whether Jane is just plain in error.)
