“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He has himself built up psychic energies that allow this to be done. The delays themselves are normal ones, indeed a part of the trade. Were he better known he would be informed of them, or if he lived nearby for example. It is his reactions rather than the delays which are important.

Your original inspiration is captured in your painting. It is there. (Smile.) The desire for creative accomplishment brings forth the opposite fear of accomplishment. One does not exist without the other. At the point of highest accomplishment, often, you fear that nothing has been accomplished.

Vertical objects close together, as a woods. (Jane was now gesturing often with the envelope, though still mainly holding it horizontally.) Five plus one. A small circular object with something on top of it, perhaps like a stem.

I am not clear here. This, perhaps: To a completed plan, as distinct from the incomplete one. A coming together.

(“Five plus one.” There are two combinations of numbers containing five and one on the back of the object: M-1065 in the upper left corner, and 14905, the ZIP code on the lower right.

(It can also be said that five plus one makes six. There are, thus, 6 sixes on the back of the object. And as stated earlier there are 6 personal names there also.

(“Grass.” We don’t know. Grass of course is implied through the object in many ways: Campgrounds for one; also, before leaving for Maine Leonard had his new tent set up on the grass in the backyard of the apartment house for several days, checking it out. He lives in the apartment across the hall from us, on the second floor.

(Although this interpretation seems obvious, Jane said that J B also reminded her of our friend John Bradley, who had witnessed some sessions. Note that the name John, although crossed out, appears on the object. Jane thinks she could have also thought of John Bradley as well as Jane Butts, and not wanting to commit herself spoke aloud the initials instead of one or the other full name.

(Leonard does have a brother, Ken, who also lives here in Elmira, but as far as we know Ken was not involved in the Maine trip, which inspired the envelope object. Leonard’s girl, who went to Maine with him, is also dark-haired. Leonard and Ken look much alike; there is little resemblance between Leonard and John, and I do not look like either one of them.

(Question: “What’s that about the oval shape?” “I am not clear here. This, perhaps: To a completed plan, as distinct from the incomplete one. A coming together.” Once again, Seth appears to be still considering the previous question, although as before I had waited until Jane had taken a definite pause before asking the next question. Even so, this data did not help us.
