“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I am speaking of these matters since I have intended to do so personally to you, and also because they tie in very well, as you will see, with some of our own discussions. For emotional contacts are what we are working with, and when you block off the contact from your end, then I would not presume, you see, to attempt to break it. My own code of ethics would not allow it.

I do think that these sessions have helped you, generally speaking. The very fact of their existence has been an advantage to you, though you may not know it, and I have hinted at this before. You are wishing for many answers from me, and I have always felt the pull of your inquiries. However at the same time you do set up these blocks; for you are not afraid of the answers, but you are afraid basically that they could be given in this manner.

There is much preparation necessary for such work. Various kinds of conditions must be exactly met, between those such as myself, and those through whom we speak. Not only general conditions but personal conditions. I meant, very simply, that since you have not been able to be emotionally open, you have often closed up tightly in the sessions. It is not that I could not reach you through Ruburt, and answer some of your questions. In any case it is simply that the answers would do you no good under such circumstances.

Definite electromagnetic actions will therefore occur between the two dreamers, and there may be a spilling over of data, or dream information, before the circuit is closed. You must realize that I am not speaking symbolically. I am speaking in very practical terms. The electromagnetic systems do indeed exist, and when they are open telepathic communications can travel through.

I am keeping our 10 o’clock date in mind, so I will suggest a very brief break. Incidentally, I depend upon you, Joseph , now, to watch the volume of the voice. Do not wait until it becomes too loud. Watch for tendencies, and then we can control it better.

There are voices from another room. Whether they are mechanically produced or not I do not know.

There is a litter of papers, however, that are not in sight in a drawer. He has forgotten about us until very late. He lies down. (Pause at 10:10.) He seems to be in a dissociated state, but whether or not it was produced purposely I do not know.

He thinks of a ring, and a peel. He had a phone call at 3 PM today, from a colleague, having to do with something discussed in a letter; though I am not sure that the letter was written to, or by, the individual on the other end of the phone.

The conversation may have had to do with a letter written to another individual. My only other impressions are of a framework and experiment.

Now. Ruburt was upset because of the failure of our last test. Nevertheless, if you have a test for us this evening then we shall do what we can, since it is not good particularly for him to refrain through fear. The tests in the overall will take care of themselves in any case. We shall have too many successes to worry. Therefore, if you have a test for us we shall see what we can do.

This is perfectly legitimate. We will try something else. A situation occurred when Marleno was 15 or thereabouts, that had much to do with her later choices and actions. Her mother was partially involved, although as a consequence. She did not initiate the circumstance.

The word maple comes to mind. I do not know to what this refers... An address, I do not know. I believe another person was connected with the event, and that it occurred in afternoon, late, or evening. Perhaps in winter or autumn.

I give my impressions as I receive them, sometimes with connections, and sometimes the impressions are solitary. A mailbox. Black. A rear entry. Something to do with a party, and one child listens, a boy.
