“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(In the unscheduled 203rd session of October 28, Seth told us we would shortly get another letter from Dr. Instream “within a few days.” On November 2, four days later, we received a short letter from Dr. Instream in which he asked that Jane and I “simply continue as we are going.” This noon Jane told me she thought Seth might have something to say tonight about the attempts at communication with Dr. Instream.

(John Bradley witnessed the last session. In it Seth mentioned developments to come within John’s family, involving his mother particularly. Jane also felt she blocked some of this data. The next day, yesterday, Jane had a most unusual experience for her. It involved a peculiar heavy sense of premonition of some kind, as of us personally, or our families, but might be related to John’s family. We have not seen him since Monday, and probably will not for at least two weeks. The sense of premonition lasted for about three hours with Jane, then lifted. She has the experience written up elsewhere.

(The session was held in our back room and was a quiet one. Jane began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. Her pace was quite slow at times, her voice quiet.)

(Jane now took a pause lasting at least one minute.)

(Jane took another long pause.)

(Break at 9:21. Jane was dissociated as usual for a first break. She had been smoking when she began this evening, and put out her cigarette without any trouble as she continued to speak. She also sipped wine. I assume her eyes were at least slitted open for her to perform these tasks, but if so I could not tell. Her voice was stronger than usual, her pace quite slow by break time.

(Jane was again smoking when she resumed, and this time I could see that her eyes were narrowly open. Her pace was again slow, her voice fairly strong. Resume at 9:30.)

(Break at 9:44. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her eyes were closed for the most part, her voice subsiding to average, her pace on the slow side. She resumed in the same manner at 10:00.)

(As usual, Jane now sat with her head down, her hands raised to her eyes. She took a pause lasting at least one minute. Her pace while delivering the material on Dr. Instream was the slowest yet, I believe. This is the 14th test.)

(Break at 10:18. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her eyes had remained closed; her voice had been quieter, her pace quite slow. She said she must have been concentrating, because her neck felt stiff at break.

(During break Jane relaxed by laying on the bed. She resumed from this position, her head propped up on one hand, her voice quiet, her eyes closed. She was also smoking as she spoke. Resume at 10:26.)

(End at 10:29. Jane was dissociated as usual. She said Seth could have cheerfully gone on, but she didn’t encourage it.

(Seth also said Jane would have some short-story sales in the 201st session. This is a possibility of course since Jane has material out. See the notes on page 24.)
