“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

However, the personality as it is manifested can never be understood if it is taken alone. There are sufficient hints and signs that do appear, to give evidence of these other portions of the self. Now there is one important point in particular in all this that should be emphasized, and I will repeat it: Certain portions of the self do not manifest themselves directly within physical reality. They do not operate directly within physical reality, and the word directly is significant.

A distant connection with the country. The word seisograph comes to mind. Or marks like earthquake marks on a graph. (Eyes still closed, envelope still to forehead. Pace good.)

Printing I believe at the lower center, outside of a margin, or implied margin. Very small, the printing very small, perhaps d e l. Part of the word delivered, I do not know. Perhaps a connection with some item delivered. (Envelope lowered to lap.) And with music, or marks that suggest notes. A note, you see.

This was to lead us to the word note. An assembly connected here. 7  3  0; perhaps 4,  4  1  0. (Each number pronounced separately.)

We think the above block of data is a good example of his attempts to have Jane talk about the delivery of a package to our door. Seth and Jane here seem to permit the use of such association in a much freer manner than in the past.

(We think the above data also leads into the next: “And with music, or marks that suggest notes. A note, you see.” Again the use of free association… “This was to lead us to the word note.” As stated, Jane remembers a note being enclosed with the sweater sent to her by her mother. We could not find the note however. Jane believes the note was actually written on the back of a birthday card. We located the letter of May 10 from Jane’s mother, concerning the mailing of the sweater to Jane, but do not believe the above data refers to that letter exclusively, although there is evidently some connection.
