“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The 32nd envelope experiment was held during the session. The object was a black and white Polaroid photo, taken of myself by a coworker in September 1960, at my desk at the Artistic Card Co. in Elmira. The older individual in the left background of the photo, Ezra Havens, figures in the envelope data, also. The friend who took the photo caught me by surprise during a lunch hour; hence my position in the act of stretching, and the startled expression.

(I placed the photo between the usual two pieces of Bristol and then sealed it in the usual double envelope. This photo had laid in my files for several years. Jane had seen it a long time ago, I knew, but certainly not recently. Since it was a photo of me I felt it would have an emotional attraction for her.

Do you have an envelope for me?

(It was 10:15. I handed Jane the envelope for our 32nd experiment. As usual she took it from me without opening her eyes, and held it against her forehead throughout. She spoke with many short pauses.)

(“And with something circular.” to me represented the round bottle of ink showing in the photo on the table beside my drawing board, and to the standard color mixing tray on the drawing board itself; this contains four circular wells.

(“And here also with an unknown element.” referred, in my opinion, to the death of Ezra Havens, shown in the background of the photo. Ezra died of a heart attack in September 1964. Jane of course knew of Ezra’s death although she had never met him; she agreed with me that “an unknown element.” could be a reference to death.

Ruburt was correct. He was not at his best this evening. However he did very well for me. In the past when he was not at his best, we simply could not get this much legitimate information through. He is operating in a more efficient manner, and his attitude of late is of great benefit to us.
