“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The sort of things with which we are involved then often imply an interruption of action of this kind, and a translation or transformation of data from one range of electromagnetic energy to another. On those occasions when Ruburt has heard me more or less directly in his psychological time experiments, there has always been on his part a sound quite independent of himself, from outside of himself, of static. If you recall, on several occasions he was so certain of the static that he checked to see if he had left the radio on by mistake.

This was the result of my attempt to give the voice an independence, to form sound within your physical system without working through Ruburt’s vocal cords, but to impress your physical system kinetically.

In the particular instances when Ruburt heard me, I simply do not know whether or not you would have heard me, and there are several reasons for this. I impressed or affected Ruburt’s ear rather directly because this was the easiest procedure. In other words the actual sound effects, had you been listening, might have appeared as a loud whisper.

The volume in Ruburt’s case was caused by proximity, among other things, and if I set up a small sound very close to him, so that it has an explosive and loud effect; but it was directed in such a manner that it was in a large measure closed off. That is, I affected the physical system but only a small portion of it, but then directed the effect purposefully in one direction.

(Jane now remembered that as Seth had spoken about her being able to hear the sound of his voice, the left side of her head and scalp, from the top of her head down to her neck, had tingled very strongly for several minutes. She had never had the sensation before, and found it difficult to put into words.
