“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At 8:15 PM John Bradley arrived to be a witness. John has witnessed several sessions; with him he brought the first carbon of Volume 1 of the Seth material, which he has been reading. This consists of the first 38 sessions. John now had for us questions on beginnings and endings, inner reality, the inner senses, etc. John is also an indefatigable worker at finding people who are willing to devote free time to typing up extra copies of the material, and he had news for us on this score also. Needless to say Jane and I have been lax in this field, and we are most grateful to John for his efforts.

(The arrival of two unexpected witnesses made Jane a little nervous, but the mood passed rather quickly, she told me later. At 8:59 she was in the kitchen making coffee. She began delivery on time in a voice pitched little lower than usual, and rather strong. Her pacing was slow. Once again her glasses were off, her eyes very dark.)

(See the 81st session and the material on the God concept. By now, Jane’s voice had strengthened, although it was not any lower. But she spoke with much expressive determination, using many gestures and smiling often.)

(Seth’s next amused remark refers to Jane.)

(Break at 9:31. Jane was dissociated as usual. As soon as she sat down she put her glasses on. She resumed in the same strong and energetic manner at 9:36.)

(Break at 10:02. Jane was dissociated as usual. Again she put her glasses on at break, having delivered the above material without wearing them. My writing hand felt some fatigue.

(John and Bill, Jane and I engaged in a discussion of free will, and in an effort to make some points I was sure the material covered I again became aware of something that was becoming more obvious all the time: namely, that the material has now reached such a length, and has gone into so many subjects, some lightly and others deeply, that I for one can no longer keep all of it on prompt recall.

(Jane resumed in the same good voice, again without her glasses, at 10:17.)

(Break at 10:46. Jane was dissociated as usual, really out, she said, as she has been all night. Bill Macdonnel left for home because his cold had tired him out. Jane resumed in about the same energetic manner at 10:50.)

(End at 10:58. Jane was dissociated as usual. See page 58 for a brief resume of the material involving John Bradley’s neighborhood in Williamsport, PA. Again, John said the initial V meant nothing in particular to him, but when he returned home he planned to do what he could to ascertain just what did take place three doors from his own place, to a woman with at least two children, or who is connected somehow with children. I suggested that a visit to his local newspaper back-issue file might be the easiest way to check.
