“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The session was held in our front room, and was free from interruptions. Once again Jane spoke at a fast rate; several times I had to ask her to slow down. As is often the case with witnesses, her delivery was much more active. Although her eyes remained closed for the whole session, her voice was loud and at times quite a bit deeper than usual. She was very restless in her chair, changing position often. It will be remembered that John’s entity name is Philip.)

(Seth dealt with one of John’s past lives and his connection with medicine in an amusing way during the 21st session, of February 3,1964. John knocked on our door during the session, but since we had not yet begun having witnesses, we asked him to return later. As soon as the door closed behind John, Seth went into a rather lengthy rundown on him, much to our surprise. At that time, neither Jane or I had seen John very many times.)

The matter of the surveys will be in due time discussed, Philip. I will be glad to tell you the little that I know. I now suggest your break.

(Break at 9:20. Jane was well dissociated, far-out, she said. Her delivery had been very active, her voice loud at times, her pace fast, her eyes closed.

It is nevertheless the physical materialization of this lack of communication. Its purpose is basically a good one. The results are obviously poor. The ulcer is an attempt to force a recognition of unity from the various levels of the self. It is, literally, a physical bridge. At this time it is an impeding action, but it can be dissolved and resolved, according to our previous discussions.

(Break at 10:00. Jane was again well dissociated. Her pace had been fast, and my writing hand was tiring. I had already asked Seth to slow down several times, and now at break asked Jane, as Jane, to see what she could do about the problem. In recent sessions her rate of speaking has pushed my writing ability to the limit, even with the rather elaborate system of symbols and abbreviations I have evolved for taking down the sessions.

The reorganization however will occur before this time, and there will be talk of changes for him, as there have been, and some minor changes will occur. But the main change in Philip’s condition with the company will not occur until after the inevitable reorganization.

It will occur within six months to one year after the reorganization. My idea of time is obviously not your own, and I cannot at this moment pinpoint the particular date. Also, there are some variables which cannot be adequately predicted because of conditions that will change drastically the attitudes of two men within the organization, and also a death which will occur in the higher organizational realm.

At the time of the reorganization those who have spoken out will be sought out, and those who did not speak out will be on the firing line. Again, I am not sure of the date of the death that will be involved here. It will occur within a year and a half, and perhaps within six months. The repercussions will not be immediately felt, but they will be one of the basic causes that will lead officials to decide upon such a reorganization.

(It might be noted that I again detected traces of what I call a brogue in Jane’s manner of speaking this evening, and thought it more pronounced as the session wore on. She does not have this characteristic usually. This brogue had been quite pronounced at times during the 162nd session, witnessed by Lorraine Shafer and Bill and Peggy Gallagher, and I have noted traces of it during subsequent sessions.

(This accent has been apparent in other sessions in a minor way at times. Perhaps I am more conscious of it recently because of the two Father Trainor episodes. See the 131st and the 158th sessions. During these readings Jane’s brogue was unmistakable. Jane grew up in an Irish neighborhood in Saratoga Springs, NY, and is a quarter Irish. She had no father at home, growing up as a child, but Father Trainor, a frequent visitor, was Irish.

It is situated in the Midwest, perhaps in Minneapolis. It is presently a small firm, comparatively speaking, but it will expand drastically within a short time. He will become involved with this company I believe irregardless, either as a competitor or as a member of the organization.

I will not give any further information this evening concerning these matters, but he may check with me from time to time if he so desires. There is a short man of whom he should beware. I will now conclude our session.

(John agreed with Seth. He said that as far back as last January his suspicions had become aroused, when one of his superiors had mentioned John’s involvement with a political organization. John had not told anyone in the company about his activities in politics at that time. From what Seth said in the above delivery, John now believes he knows who the individual is who might be passing along information about him.)
