“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(In the unscheduled 203rd session of October 28, with the Gallaghers as witnesses, Seth gave some information having to do with the Incas reaching Florida and building small settlements. Whether this is established historically Jane and I do not know. We would merely like to note here the appearance of an article in the New York Times for December 5,1965. This had to do with a team of anthropologists launching a four-year study to assess the culture of a wandering tribe of Indians in South Florida. The Indians came from Central or South America. Some remains have been found. The article did not say these Indians were Inca. Interestingly enough, one of the three anthropologists heading the expedition is Dr. John M. Lonyear 3d, of Colgate. Serious digging begins next month.

Ruburt’s book will do very well. I am not speaking now in terms of riches. Nevertheless your immediate financial worries will definitely be over within a two-year period, when his other books will also begin to show in financial terms. You will be quite comfortably situated.

Ruburt will benefit by our vacation, and also by Sherman’s book. There are some good hints in it. Obviously I cannot tell you everything at once, and the man’s abilities are well developed. We are doing quite well ourselves, considering our circumstances, and we shall do better.

We are not speaking of my part now; for in such cases the connections are becoming specific, you see, and the preliminary connection has been made. The personal associations on his part that do not apply to the test object, do represent the fact that his own abilities have not fully developed.

In actual cash Ruburt will receive approximately $3,500.00 in the following year, though this will not represent all that he will make, and the amount will double in the next two years. From then on you will do very well. Again, you may or may not insert this in the record, as you prefer.

(Since I am nine years older than Bill, it appears that we will both be quite ancient at death. I do not believe that Jane would have allowed such data to come through too many sessions ago, although she did permit Seth to say quite a while ago that she herself would live to old age. That data was also connected to dream analysis and reincarnation.

(The candle flame maintained its unusual height until break, then it began to subside somewhat, and continued to do so through the Dr. Instream material to follow. However it did not reach its earlier 3/4-inch low point. Jane said she had been aware of no feeling of energy thrusting sideways out of her toward the candle, as she had been in the 215th session. This is the 25th Dr. Instream test.

I pick up a connection with cork, but do not know to what this refers. (Pause.) Will you put Ruburt’s cigarette out for him, please.

Do you have a test for me?

A stopwatch, though I do not know to what this refers. An upright composition. A group, but I pick up busts rather than full figures, and a round object. People about a round object, such as a table.

(“A stopwatch” does not ring a bell with us. We think David’s drawing of the dog can be called an “upright composition.” The next statement, about “A group... busts rather than full figures... people about a round object, such as a table,” is quite interesting, and can apply twice, as the number twelve applied four times. My parents’ dining room table is round, and of course we ate Sunday dinner at this table. My parents also have a round mirror-topped coffee table in the living room. It is a low table; often a group of the children would be playing games on the table, and to do this they had to sit on the floor. Thus only their torsos projected above the tabletop, and were reflected in the mirror.
