“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane achieved partial success with Bill on two attempts. The first try was the best. Bill was unable to open his eyes and developed good amnesia in his left hand, these being the tests Jane used to show him something about the trance state. However he was not able to speak during either session, and came out of the state both times when Jane asked him to answer questions. He did succeed in relaxing very well. This is difficult for him to do; he has ulcers.

(Seth had the interesting comment to make that he had looked out at us from Jane’s eyes during the evening, along with Jane, and that he saw us as individuals instead of composite electromagnetic images embodying our pasts, presents, and futures. On two very brief occasions Seth let his voice blast out to some extent, though not at full volume by any means. The hour was late and I was quite aware of possible reactions from neighbors in the house.

Now. These probabilities, these events that may or may not occur, are extremely interesting. Let us consider our self one and time one. As a rule our self two can indeed view what may happen in self one’s future. However, our self two views probabilities, and some of these probabilities will indeed occur to self one. Some will not, and this is where, again, our friends Priestley and Dunne fall short.

The number 4, and 8 o’clock. At least I believe the number 8 refers to time. A stuffy place. Also an apartment. Three alternate plans. Two were not followed, and there is a question over the third.

A hilltop address. Two women live together, this is a separate impression. One woman wears a string of beads, and Philip knows her. 1652.

(“A hilltop address. Two women...” one of which John knows, and “1652.” meant nothing in particular to John, at the moment.

The two women referred—I am not sure so we shall go slowly—the two women live together and they had reference to one of the two gentlemen I have mentioned in connection with Philip.

I will here end our session, with a gentle note to Ruburt, that I have asked him not to smoke when we are dealing with such material. Also a supper engagement, two men, and a paper is shown.

(John said he could offer little help, still, on the two women mentioned by Seth. He said that one of his friends sees a woman friend whenever he goes to Cleveland, and that perhaps this woman has a companion, or a roommate.

(During my efforts to get as much data written down as possible, I forgot to ask John whether “a supper engagement, two men, and a paper is shown.” meant anything to him.
