“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Bill Gallagher asked Seth about a possible operation for his ulcers, although he has been feeling well. Seth replied that he saw no operation for Bill, should present trends continue, and that Bill should surmount the ulcer problem eventually. Seth has told Bill this before.

(Jane has in her files a family record book going back to the mid 1800’s. Consulting this after the session we found that Seth was correct, that her grandfather had been 67 when he died March 12,1948. Jane was extremely attached to her grandfather; she grew up without a father since her parents separated when she was three years old, and her grandfather did his best to fill in the gap. Seth said the anniversary of his death has been on her mind. Seth dealt with the grandfather rather extensively in the 14th session. This material was the longest at the time, dealing with another personality in such a manner. See Volume 1.

(I tried to question him closely about this and remember what I could. By masses, Seth said he meant the man in the street. I said I though much evidence had been collected already, and that more was certain to be gathered before our deaths forty or so years from now, granting his dates were correct. Seth agreed, but said the evidence might convince scientists and investigators long before it convinced the average man, who knows little about such things now.

(Experiments would be set up in advance of the death of either Jane or I, Seth said, that would furnish this convincing proof once one of us died. I am nine years older than Jane. Seth went on to say that once this proof was made known and accepted, it would change the behavior of every man on earth, for man would have to live his physical life in the face of knowledge of an afterlife.

(A note added 5½ years later: In July 1971 Bill Gallagher did have an operation for his ulcers. It went very well, and he is free of pain.)
