“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(There was no disturbance at the newspaper through Wednesday of last week, Peggy said, but there was a most definite one, involving the manager and the city editor, on Thursday, March 17. This shook up the whole staff and resulted in a suspension. Since Seth was a day late regarding the change of plan, we wondered if he was a day early regarding the disturbance.

The training involved on Ruburt’s part does result in a utilization of abilities, and for his conscious use. That is, the abilities are not being developed haphazardly, despite his own inclinations, but in answer to his inclinations. The personality therefore is being highly developed.

Sense data therefore may be the result of perception of outer and inner environment. It is simpler to translate information from the outer environment into sense data. It is more difficult to translate inner data in this manner. There are frequent distortions but there are also frequent distortions in more ordinary sense perceptions. Inner data so translated must be built up from scratch, so to speak. There is in the physical world an illusion of continuity, against which sense data can be checked. There is no like sense of continuity, as a rule, against which to check sense perceptions which are translations of inner data.

Now. In the earlier impressions that I gave you this evening, I was trying something new, and we will give you what further information we can, when we can. We were throwing our net of awareness in a large circle, so to speak, to see what we could catch, and the results should prove rather interesting.

(Until otherwise noted, the following data resulted from my second question.

(The personal material we have received in the sessions has been psychologically sound. Jane and I feel this way because whenever we have put Seth’s suggestions to the test through practice, the results have been excellent.)

(Jane and I visited my parents at their home in Sayre, PA, last Sunday, March 20,1966. We got along well. Following Seth’s recent suggestions, usually given in unscheduled sessions, I have been making conscious efforts concerning my reactions to my parents. The results have been very good.)
