“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(On page 177 of the last session Seth mentioned a recent vision of mine, and promised to discuss it further this evening. Since he does so I will now describe it in some detail. It took place in December, as I lay in bed suspended in that pleasant interlude between waking and sleeping; I’ve had other visions while in this state, incidentally.

(I saw the reddish rims of these eyes, and their black lashes with the utmost clarity. The skin about them was a light brown. At the fringes of my field of vision I saw that the face containing these magnificent eyes was quite hairy, covered by long black shining hair almost as though I was visualizing a throwback to more primitive man. But there was no sense of primitiveness here; these limpid brown eyes regarded me impassively; there was no intrinsic threat. These eyes merely stared back at me from beneath heavy black brows.

(As soon as I fully, consciously, realized what was taking place, I reacted violently in the manner described below by Seth. Within a very brief period after this unfortunate reaction, I began to regret it, for I knew I had terminated something much too soon. I thought my reaction was a normal one, yet was angry at myself for reacting so strongly. My outcry, my thrashing about in bed and waving my arms, of course startled Jane; I believe she had not yet fallen asleep. I blamed myself for not knowing enough to suspend any conscious judgment; I felt I had enough background knowledge to go along with this vision, to see what developed, yet I had reacted in what I thought a foolish way.

(Strange to say, I did not come fully awake as one does when arising in the morning for example. I achieved a state close to waking only, in spite of my momentary panic. Jane began to question me; she told me the next morning that I described the vision to her while speaking in a sleepy monotone. I was conscious of doing this, and that it took some little time, yet felt no urge to prod myself wide awake. I recall that I felt it urgent that I tell her what had taken place as soon as possible. I thought of getting up to make a drawing of what I had seen, but decided I would not forget. This is certainly true; this vision is as vivid and clear in memory today as it was a second after it ended. I do intend making a drawing, in color, for those who may be interested.

(In addition, Seth has given enough information upon these visions so that I thought I had probably distorted quite valid and alien data into a form I could understand.

(The last vision of mine that Seth discussed took place on August 30,1965, during waking hours, and was mentioned in the 183rd session of that evening.
