“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane said that as she began giving the data, the association she made with Seth’s data, “white, snow white,” led her to consider the particular photo of my parents’ house taken after a deep snowfall. She said that at this stage of her development it is very difficult for her to tell when such personal associations enter in, unless Seth himself notes it by saying “Ruburt here thinks of a photograph,” etc. Jane said she saw the photo in her mind’s eye, but that as she continued to speak, she eventually received a hazy picture, a “nebulous impression,” of a bar. She did not mention the bar in the test data, and indeed had forgotten it until our discussion of the test brought it back to her mind.

(Jane finished her comments by noting that there isn’t much she can do at the moment about being sidetracked by such personal associations, except to keep it in mind. She does believe that this knowledge has in itself prevented her from being led astray from Seth’s data a few times in the past, and that her ability in separating Seth’s data from her own will grow.

The snow white referred to the colors, or to the color, rather, of the napkin in the light. The snow I used merely because the white was so blinding, and this led Ruburt to his own associations, concerning your parents’ house, and a particular photograph which was taken in the wintertime. But we managed to continue on after this, to deliver some fairly decent impressions. He is still learning, and it is quite all right.
