“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane had no idea of what Seth would talk about during the session, although both of us hoped he would discuss the events of last Friday evening, September 23, at home. Present were Bill and Peggy Gallagher, Barbara Ingold, Jane and myself. Jane has written up an account of her experience, and Peggy took partial notes. Copies of both accounts will be attached to this session. I will also add notes as the session unfolds.

(Seth desired to come through Friday evening, since we had obviously set the stage through our conversation. Jane and Barbara had also helped because of their talk before the arrival of the Gallaghers. Jane denied Seth permission to speak, and he agreed. Later Jane began to give impressions on her own, in trance. All of the data concerned Barbara, who verified several striking points.

(Jane resumed after a break, and her trance deepened considerably. Later she said it was her deepest trance ever. Jane began to speak in a halting manner, her voice dwindled, and she called my name as if in supplication. She lay on the floor on her back. She called me once again; as I went to her she burst into tears; her crying was strong and highly charged; it seemed obvious she was responding emotionally to an experience of Barbara’s of an early age; Jane seemed to have attained a state beyond words. It took some time for her to come out of the trance, with what little help I could offer.

(Indeed, Jane slipped back into it several times, at brief intervals. Barbara could verify none of this experience, which would be the case were it buried in the subconscious. Bill Gallagher took us on a ride in the hopes the cold night air would help Jane snap out of it; so at 1:00 in the morning we were bouncing through Elmira, Elmira Heights, and Horseheads. The therapy worked however.

(Jane said she couldn’t help contrasting this more mundane and quiet and safe approach with the events of the trance of last Friday evening, involving Barbara Ingold, and the quite specific data, including dates and place names, physical descriptions, etc., that manifested itself then.
