“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I would like to discuss the inner senses in connection with some of the other material that you have been given more recently.

(It was 10:24, and too late for an envelope test in my opinion. In the 197th session, Seth had suggested I give Jane these tests unannounced during the middle of the session. I had forgotten to do so, and when I realized this at last break had assumed it would be better to wait until next session.

(We discussed the test results and made some connections. We did not think Seth would clear up the doubtful points, at least not all of them, because of the lateness of the hour. This I regretted, though thinking the test was a good one. Jane was now tired.

(The “impression of a seesaw... as a children’s game,” is quite interesting to us, and we believe a good example of the way associative memory can work while also being accurate. At the time of the exhibition I participated in at Bill’s gallery last winter, he had not had the gallery open very long. Building was still going on; in the back room were sawhorses he had borrowed from a carpenter, plus many other tools, scraps of wood, etc. Note that the sawhorse shape and the support for a child’s seesaw would be practically the same. Jane is very attached to playground accoutrements; she has especially fond memories of children’s seesaws and swings. Indeed, playgrounds have an almost mystical significance for her and she uses them often in her paintings.

(Jane’s relations with this man became so acerbic that she left his employ in the fall of 1964. At the time Seth said it was a wise move, and that from that point on Jane would do well with her writing. This has been the case. Seth also dealt rather extensively with the conflict between Jane and the director of the Arnot in the following sessions: 74, 75, 77, 79, 82, 84 and 85. All of Seth’s material on the situation has worked out. At the time, we found the psychological information contained in these sessions very helpful. See Volume 2.
