“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We will not involve ourselves with any deep and weighty matters this evening, and you may slow me down, Joseph, when you prefer. You will find, incidentally, that within a fairly short time that the stock of which we have spoken will take a quite severe drop, after which it will slowly rise.

I was speaking of those questions which our guest asks herself, and these are the questions that she subconsciously would like me to answer. We will go into these matters again upon another occasion.

I am as you know a rather humorous gentleman. But someday we will have jokes that are not on me. You have not heard me laugh yet.

The inquiring mind of our Jesuit member is indeed refreshing, and the very inquiry does him good. He hit upon several excellent points, and he will discover more.

I knew that Ruburt would recognize me, and the word fate is pronounced fate.

(I recalled, also, that as I was drifting off to sleep upon retiring that evening, I had been aware of a slight sensation of tingling or thrilling in my hands. This mild sensation has been a rather standard one for me during psychological time, when presumably I was in a light state of dissociation. This was by far the most pronounced feeling of enlargement that I have experienced, and is separate from the other strong bodily sensations of thrilling, or the feeling of sound as Seth describes it, that I have known upon a few occasions.
