“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Break at 9:40. As she had done during the 274th session, Jane remained in trance at break. This didn’t mean she confined herself to her chair, sitting with her eyes closed. Instead she too paced about the room, her eyes open and very dark, and spoke to me as I stretched. We discussed briefly the similarity between projections and my paintings. She lit a cigarette and said she’d let me tell her when I was ready to resume.

(One of our cats now scratched at the hall door for admittance, as is customary. Without pausing, her eyes open and dark, Jane rose and went to the door and let the cat in. She resumed her seat in the rocker without interruption.)

(Break at 10:25. Jane said she was “way-out.” Seth hadn’t wanted to take a break at the regular time, and had wanted to keep her under for the experiment also. He also had Jane let the cat in so she wouldn’t get upset by the animal’s scratching at the door. Her eyes had remained closed during the experiment and her pace had been quite rapid except where indicated.

(Of course the emotional involvement and reaction between us and my parents is strong, and would tend to override more specific details of the envelope object itself, once Jane had picked up the idea of my mother. Jane had the idea of Mother’s greeting card in mind from the start of the envelope data, she said. She tried not to let this color the data. She mentally dropped it, deciding to let Seth speak in his own way. But the card plays a large part in the data nevertheless.
