“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Today Jane received the galley proofs of her ESP book, along with the original manuscript, from her publisher by special delivery. We noted that most of the typed pages of her script bore handwritten comments in the margins and on the back. They were made evidently either by a psychologist or parapsychologist, probably at the invitation of the publisher before he accepted the book. We had considered this possibility, although the publisher had not mentioned it to us.

(“A small round object, with some inscriptions resembling a postmark.” Jane said she saw within a small round object, with horizontal lines running across it; she thought of a postmark on an envelope, with the cancellation lines, but knew this wasn’t it. When she looked at my tracing-paper drawing, she said this was evidently what she was trying to arrive at subjectively; my drawing is of a round object, although much larger. Jane said the straight-across lettering, Key Value, is in the position of the horizontal lines she saw within. There are also ruled-in horizontal lines on the drawing.

(Jane said that out of all the connections we made, practically all of them referred to my tracing-paper drawing rather than to the actual envelope object itself. My boss made the envelope object. Jane knows him of course, and likes him; yet the fact that I made the tracing-paper drawing evidently exerted a stronger pull emotionally. Perhaps this diverted Seth/Jane’s focus from the envelope object to a closely related object. As stated, Jane didn’t know the two drawings existed.
