“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(An unscheduled session was held this evening. It was witnessed by four people, and interrupted by a fifth. This account is written the following morning after a review of the main points with Jane. No notes were taken at the time of the session.

(It will be remembered that during the unscheduled session on last Sunday, February 27, and during Monday’s regular session for February 28, Seth had mentioned the possibility of witnesses for last Wednesday’s session, March 2. Moreover he mentioned the possibility existed for two sets of witnesses, and for four people, perhaps even five. When no witnesses appeared for Wednesday’s session Seth said in answer to my question: “I was being cagey. I merely said their attendance was possible. My time elements were simply off here, unfortunately.” Jane had smiled broadly while giving this answer.

(Two sets of witnesses did attend tonight’s unplanned session, the Gallaghers and Marilyn and Don Wilbur. Jane began speaking as Seth at 11:45 PM, continued until about 12:15 AM, took a break during which the Gallaghers left, then resumed briefly, from about 12:30 to 12:45 AM with the Wilburs present. The session might have continued but was interrupted by the visit of a friend who does not know of them. We do not often get visitors after midnight; this friend has visited us perhaps three times in the last year, so we can say his arrival was unexpected.

(It can be said that since the Gallaghers and the Wilburs both know of the sessions, and that they visit us regularly, an unscheduled session is hardly unusual with these two sets of witnesses. It can also be said however that we do not easily hold unscheduled sessions, although from the record it might seem they are held rather often. Jane and I usually go out of our way to avoid them because of the extra work involved, etc. Hence the late starting hour for this one.

(The Wilburs have witnessed a few unscheduled sessions. Their first experience is mentioned in the notes for the 206th session, of November 8,1965. Their next is mentioned in the notes for the 214th session, of December 6,1965. The unscheduled session was held on November 5,1965; see page 57.

(Seth was going into the relationship between predictions and probabilities when the session came to an end because of the mentioned interruption. As stated, two sets of witnesses had been present. A fifth person had also appeared, causing the end of the session after one set of witnesses had left. See page 326.
