“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

My condolences to Ruburt, in his attempt to win out over natural forces, and to upset those balances which are so necessary. We shall have more to say about this bird episode. There are connections here that we shall use in another discussion.

(Again I seemed to interrupt. Seth now went into something new as far as the envelope data is concerned. The Wilburs and I agreed later that Seth evidently decided to insert the following material just on his own, and because the time, and Jane’s trance state, seemed right to him. There is also a general idea connection with what follows and the envelope object.)

I believe your brother Loren is one present. (Pause.) The number 17, a date in July which will be significant to him, or his close family—not necessarily to him, you see. (Pause.)

(“And perhaps with an older man. That is, perhaps a connection with an older man.” Roy Fox, whose name appears on page three of the envelope object, is in his early 60s.

(“I believe your brother Loren is one present. The number 17, a date in July which will be significant to him, or his close family—not necessarily to him, you see.” We did not ask for this data; it came through spontaneously. We saw one reason why Seth could have chosen to insert it here in the envelope data, and Seth confirms our speculation later. Our idea was that Seth sought to use the idea of a relative connection with the object. Ruth Gridley, listed on page 3 of the object as one of the Art Shop’s new management, is my first cousin; Loren of course is my brother. But we still think the Loren data is separate in the main from the envelope data.

It is not too late this evening for me to set him straight on his birds and bees. (Seth was very active, smiling, vociferous.) It is however too late, I fear, for you.

Someone in this household walked in their sleep, and opened the door. The cat is not good at projection. Our friend Ruburt does not remember his nocturnal walk. Since we are with friends, I will tell you that he remembered his womanly modesty even in his sleep, and he once more donned the clothes that he donned earlier, you see, when he let the cat in.

The dear little pussies annoyed him. He was too lazy, you see, to rise from bed. He wanted to sleep. He had his cake and ate it too.

4) a connection with someone else beside Don with the watch.
* correct—the watch was a gift from his wife.

5) small stupid incident immediately before or after the purchase.
* correct—It was a Christmas gift and he had bought the same item, a watch for his wife. They both knew what the other had bought and decided to open them Xmas eve because they knew.

14) something about the 6TH grade—another watch perhaps.
* The 6th grade was significant in the mind of Don although it is not likely he received another watch then. He has owned several other watches in his life though.
