“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The session was held in our front room. Jane began speaking while sitting down and with her eyes closed. She was smoking, and opened her eyes but the one time to put out her cigarette. Her pace was average, her voice a little more active than usual.)

The ego is not as a rule aware of this broader time experience. The subconscious however is so aware, and the associative processes of the mind can, and do, react to a future event, while the ego is closed off to it. Therefore it is possible for Frederick, this year, to become ill at the smell of a particular perfume because subconsciously he knows that in 1980 his mother will be wearing that perfume when she dies.

(Jane finally resumed, her eyes closed even though she was smoking, at 9:48.)

(Jane now paused. As when giving experimental material, she sat with her head down, a hand raised to her closed eyes.)

(Jane paused at 10:01. She sat with her head down, her hands raised to her closed eyes. She began speaking with many short pauses, but overall her pace could not be called slow. This is the 45th Instream experiment.)

Two other people in the room, I believe a woman and a man, and another man has been present but is now out of the room. There is also another wall adjacent to this one, with a long window now covered by a closed cloth drapery. The drapery is short, that is, it does not reach all the way to the floor.

A desk beneath this window, of dark wood. The floor covered with a light-colored, textured rug. In the light it looks green. Two doorways to the room. There is an office close by in the same dwelling place, that also belongs to the owner, the man who Dr. Instream visits.

This window also covered by a short closed drapery. A photograph on the desk, taken in 1936, of a woman. An earlier party this evening for Dr. Instream. This dwelling I believe is on another level but the first level of a building. The street faces north and south, runs north and south. The numbers 312 connected here.

(Break had again been fairly long. Jane resumed at a comfortable pace; her eyes were closed and she was smoking. After she had been speaking for a while her eyes, very dark, began to open occasionally. Resume at 10:45.)

(Once again Jane bowed her head and raised her hand to her closed eyes.)

(Jane pointed at John, her eyes still closed.)

(Jane now took a pause lasting over a minute. Her eyes had been opening occasionally but they were now closed. Her hands were once again raised to her face.)

(Break at 11:13. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her pace had been good; my hand was feeling some fatigue. Her eyes had remained closed except when she put out her cigarette and took a sip of wine.

(11:59. I thought John wanted more information, but we were tired by now, and this proved to be the end of the session. Jane had been dissociated as usual. Her rapid pace had been broken by some rather long pauses, and her eyes had remained closed.
