“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Shortly after the session began Seth told us that we would receive another letter from Dr. Instream “within a few days.” Seth also suggested Jane and I write to Dr. Rhine. The Duke physiotherapist had told Peggy that Dr. Rhine answers each letter he receives personally, “even those from crackpots.”

(Seth told Peg and Bill there is constant communication between them telepathically. He said the four of us would embark “on excellent circumstances” this winter but did not elaborate. Seth told Bill that he took his problems with him on vacation, especially the ulcer, and Bill heartily agreed. Seth then repeated some general suggestions concerning the ulcer, given in earlier sessions. Bill showed us his Japanese “tranquilizer,” a small black wooden carving he had bought in Puerto Rico.

You know enough to use the trance state very well... The trance would have helped you concentrate and disintegrated the panic, within seconds... You knew enough, and you had the impetus. You would have had to say only: I am now in a light trance state, and I will deal with the problem at hand.

(Bill now asked Seth if an Indian village had ever been situated over the spot where he had done most of his skin diving in Puerto Rico. He had heard talk while there that this had been the case perhaps two hundred years ago, before that section of land had settled beneath the water. He thought the village there, if there had been any, would have belonged to the Carib Indians.

(Seth remarked that our weather neither excited or concerned him, and that personality affects weather. He then threw out the God concept as a question for general discussion. He was greeted with a large silence momentarily. Seth asked for ideas from Bill and Peg; it will be remembered that in past sessions he said he would go into this question when they witnessed sessions.

(I asked Bill to elaborate on his previous statement. Bill’s answer included the idea that he believed a god would have to appear to the human race in humanoid form so that we could understand it.)
