“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(See page 277 for a tracing of the money order used in tonight’s 9th envelope test. This was returned to me a few days ago; I had written a paper company requesting samples. They sent the samples but returned the 25¢ money order. On the spur of the moment today I decided to use it for the test, and enclosed it in the usual double envelopes. I also enclosed the money order itself between two pieces of thin Bristol, to make it difficult for Jane to unwittingly pick up anything by feeling the shape of the object within the envelopes.

When others are present there is simply more energy available. Yet again, such use of energy does not imply a depletion. I am not stealing energy from others. In actuality Ruburt uses the energy, for it is in a form which is more accessible to him than to me. There is a pooling of energy in such cases, and in such a pooling of energy telepathic communications are facilitated; for the many selves present, in pooling their energy, extend themselves.

(Since it was close to 10 PM, the hour suggested by Dr. Instream for clairvoyant contact with Seth, Jane told me she felt some nervousness, as she had the first time this experiment had been tried in the 189th session.

Do you have a test for me?

Give me a moment and we will see what we can do.

(The large numeral TWO is stamped in red on the money order, as the upper limit of its worth. Since it is for 25¢, there is ample room there for “something two times, in duplicate, or as twins.” Two people involved could be Jane and me; she purchased it, filled it out and mailed it for me, along with a note to the paper company that I wrote. “It’s a duplicate [mentioned in test] of a money order,” Jane wrote later. The paper company is located in New York City. Both of us have been to New York City, and felt that it contained too many people for comfort. The money order has no border. Multiplicity of design, a very general appellation, could refer to the many numbers on the money order I suppose. Jane wrote my name on the order, but it does not bear my handwriting on either side.

(I regard the test as quite good at this stage, especially the reference to me via initials, and the note, something two times, and a landscape of a landscape. Jane as usual was disappointed.

(Now Jane opened her eyes and looked at me. But they did not stay open for more than a sentence or two.)

(The loud voice during the unscheduled session last night did embarrass me at times.
