“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Seth had some interesting things to say about using suggestion. The kernel of thought here is that it is important to use whatever suggestions we want to, daily; he stressed the importance of not missing a day. He explained that in a given period of say, thirty days, the suggestions on perhaps but three or four days within that period would be really effective, and that as of now we have no way of knowing the best days. So if we miss a day, we run a chance of missing out on a particularly effective day for suggestion. Seth said that on occasion suggestion will reach all levels of the personality, that our voice will be heard throughout the personality, and that effective action will follow. There was more here but the above is the main point made.

(There follows the account from my notebook describing my adventure in hearing music while almost asleep: “February 27, Sunday night, actually 12:30 AM: As I lay in bed half asleep I heard very clearly music in chords, played by an electric guitar. The sound was very harmonious, neither too fast or slow, and quite beautiful, almost with an echoing quality. I realized I had been listening to it for some little time, perhaps a minute, before I consciously realized what was happening. I then came awake and described the effect to Jane, who had not yet fallen asleep.”

(“A little later, while in the same state, I heard the music again to a reduced degree, for a few seconds. I then fell asleep. It is interesting that the evening before this experience, Saturday, February 26, Jane and I had an excellent time dancing to a new band at our favorite dancing establishment in town. I believe the guitar music I heard in bed was very much like one of the guitars in the band. I had watched this particular musician often during the evening, admiring his playing. The band plays until 1 AM each evening, when the establishment closes. Since I had my experience at 12:30 AM, when presumably the band would still be playing, did I perhaps tune in on it there?”

(Break at 9:59. Jane was dissociated as usual. Earlier in the evening we had noted a similarity in some of the comments on her manuscript with J.B. Priestley’s ideas on time. Jane had the idea that Priestley and our unknown commentator were contemporaries. Priestley we believe to be 70. Jane said she had the personal association of Norway when she heard herself giving the data on ice, regarding the name.
