“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, generally. (Pause.) Some kind of misrepresentation. Dr. Instream feels that something has been misrepresented to him professionally, I believe, on the part of the university or in connection with his work there. (Pause.)

Near him now, a miscellany of objects, small ones, some of them white, that look like marble. Perhaps figurines, but they are not marble. (Pause.) A knock on the door. (Pause at 10:20.) This is at his home, and a caller, a male, younger than he, a fairly young male, perhaps a student. (Pause.)

(“Some connection with a magistrate of some sort.” When Jane and I went to the Elmira Bureau of Motor Vehicles to inquire as to why I hadn’t received the license plates I had ordered several weeks prior to mid-January, we found the office very crowded. We stood in line for perhaps fifteen minutes. Then a man I thought to be a policeman entered. I succeeded in talking to him, and saw by his shoulder patch that he was a sheriff.

(Jane was pleased with the test results. As stated, the envelope object had good emotional connections for both of us, with the added connection of the dream material mentioned on page 260. The dream material was not specifically mentioned by Seth, however. It will be noted that his data moved between the fact of our being strongly concerned about the license plates, and the experimental object itself, which was picked up as the focal point of our concern.

Now, Ruburt’s subconscious simply got in our way at last evening’s session. Now and then it is to be expected, but I regret the particular circumstances deeply. He was subconsciously but never consciously aware that next month marked the time of his grandfather’s death, and subconsciously he knew his grandfather’s age at death.

When I gave my material it was meant to be reassuring. This was my intent. But when I tried to give information regarding Ruburt, the subconscious activity interrupted. We had his identification with his grandfather momentarily, and the subsequent distortion.

I would apologize to Ruburt, but the distortion was not my own. I do deeply regret it however. I also think that you will find his attitude from now on an improvement over his past attitude, as far as our experiments are concerned, and this will be of benefit to all of us.

Ruburt should trust and rely upon his intuitional nature, for it is sturdier and more reliable than he knows.
