“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The 20th envelope test was held during this session. See the tracing on page 107. For the test object I used part of one of the paper napkins Jane and I were given when we varied our routine prior to the 213th session, and visited a local discotheque for a beer. See the notes on this on page 102. The results of tonight’s test were very interesting. While we were in the discotheque ultraviolet lights were turned on when the entertainment began; this means the test object was viewed by us in this unusual light, and this fact shows in tonight’s test data.

(See the tracing of the test object, the napkin from the discotheque, on page 107.

(The design on the napkin covers one quarter of the surface area, and it was this quarter which was “turned up” to us when the waitress placed the folded napkins on the table before us. There was of course no photo involved, or a house or any connection with my parents, or the past.

(Jane felt that “white, snow white,” was valid data, even though she was thinking of a certain photo of my parent’s house, taken when there was deep snow. She saw this white as very bright. See my notes on page 109. When the ultraviolet lights were turned on in the discotheque, some colors were activated more than others. The light was actually quite dim, but the ultraviolet made anything white appear to be blinding white-paper, socks, white shirts, etc. The effect was very striking. The napkin was of white paper.

(Jane felt good about “Purple. Large letters.” See the tracing. The word discotheque on the napkin was printed in a blue that was strongly on the red side, although actually short of being an outright purple. The letters are of course large. “Something fairly important... the following day” did not ring a bell with us. “automobile” could refer to our driving to the discotheque, though there could be other meanings here, we think.

(“a gathering” can refer to the crowded discotheque, or bar. I wouldn’t say the napkin was an “item strongly connected” to me, although it was my napkin rather than Jane’s that I used for the test. Nor were my initials on it.

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.
