“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Bill and Peggy Gallagher were witnesses to the session. As usual the presence of witnesses fired Seth up. His delivery was more active and quite fast from the beginning. Jane’s eyes however remained closed. For much of the session she sat on the edge of her chair, leaning forward with her hands clasped together. She began at 8:58.)

Now, I would suggest that two main categories in particular be given special notice. These as you know will have to do with primary and secondary reality. And each dream should be scrutinized first of all with these main points in mind. You must look out for pitfalls, and use your critical faculties. Ruburt uses his critical faculties supremely well in scrutinizing my activities and nature, so I have no doubt that he can also apply them to the job at hand.

(This is the 20th Dr. Instream test. As usual Jane now began to speak at a much slower pace. She sat with her head down, a hand raised to her closed eyes. Resume at 9:58.)

(Here Jane began to describe the shape of the clock in the air with her hands, as she spoke with her eyes closed. Since she was so definite about the clock’s shape, I made a quick drawing of my version of her description. This of course caused me to miss out on a few words of her verbal account, so I took the chance and asked her to repeat her description. This is the first time I have asked her a question during a test. She responded without a sign of bother or irritation, and her second description was the same as the first, as near as I could tell.

([Bill G:] “What significance do you attach to the fact that you seem to be right-handed, but left-handed in sessions?”)

(At an earlier break, Bill had mentioned to me, while Jane was out of the room, that he believed Jane was right-handed but that Seth used predominantly left-handed movements. I hadn’t noticed this, but told Bill Jane had talked at times of being left-handed as a child; I told him I remembered Jane saying something about being made to write right-handed in school.)

Ruburt, indeed, should give his own answers. Far be it from me to answer for him. I use one hand, and he uses the other, primarily.

I always used one hand, and he used the other.

It does indeed, though the face does not fully adopt my own expression. First of all, as far as the hands are concerned, to be left or right-handed has to do with inner mechanisms and brain patterns that come first, before the motions of the hands. Characteristically, I operated in certain manners that resulted in the primary use of my left hand, when I was focused within physical matter.
