“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(It was 10:15. Jane took the usual double envelope from me without opening her eyes. Reading over the last session, she had been surprised to learn that she had held the test envelope to her forehead for a few minutes, since she didn’t remember doing this. Now, she once again pressed the test envelope to her forehead, this time more deliberately, and with both hands. She continued to hold it there. Her eyes were closed, her voice very quiet. This is the 23rd envelope test.)

(The monk mentioned by Seth refers to our friend Father Martin, who is mentioned in the 212th session. Apropos of this, Jane now said she remembered that Seth’s use of the word missionary did set up her own chain of association involving Father Martin. She said Seth put her back on the right track by mentioning this.

I must stress that individuality is never lost. But this is too complicated a subject to cover this evening. We have explained it rather adequately in terms of action however, and gestalts of selves do not imply a giving-up of individuality at all. It should be remembered here that reincarnation is simply a fact, and one which is not accepted by Priestley or Dunne.

(“Yes to both. Bill clearly remembers a white man, at least 60 years old by his estimate, who stood next to him at the roulette table at the casino. Bill noticed that the man wore three rings on his fingers; he thought this quite unusual.”)

(“We don’t know. We don’t remember such a couple.”)

(Peggy remembers one cameraman, out of several present, who carried his camera slung on a strap over his shoulder.)

(Peggy quite clearly recalls a man with such a handkerchief in his breast pocket. She remembers this because the handkerchief had four sharp points showing, which she considered unusual, very much out of the ordinary. She cannot recall however whether this man was also the cameraman. She does not remember any initials.”

(In the unscheduled session for December 3 Seth said Peggy would meet a woman dressed in green. Peggy met no such woman. After the cocktail party however, Peggy found she couldn’t remember the color of Mrs. Carlyle’s dress. She checked by phone; Mrs. Carlyle had worn a red dress. Later note by RFB: Red and green are opposites on the artisit’s color wheel.)

(Yes, in that Peggy was in the small separate gathering that visited Camp Kilmer, northeast of Washington, on Wednesday. See page 165. Peggy remembered that the bus taking them to Camp Kilmer was far from full; her notes later confirmed that 12 reporters and 2 aides made the trip.)

(At first Peggy saw no connection here. Then she remembered that when she arrived in Newark, NJ from Elmira, she transferred to Kennedy Airport on Long Island by helicopter. During the trip, at an altitude of no more than 600 feet, she thus flew over many of the docks, piers and shipyards lining the Brooklyn waterfront. She thought at the time that Bill would have enjoyed the sight, since he likes ships. The helicopter flight traveled past the Statue of Liberty.)
