“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now, I do indeed have a few words to say, concerning this last episode.

It was of course an upsetting one. This does not mean that it was not a rather important occasion. Ruburt did not use his abilities in precisely the same manner in the past, simply because he was unable to do so had he been willing.

The first such episode is bound to be somewhat upsetting. I would have intruded despite the fact that I was not welcome, but then I feared that to do so would confuse the issue for you.

And I can tell you, though neither of you may be pleased, that the incident taught the cat lover and the Jesuit much, and through direct experience. You might call it a visual aid. (Smile, forceful manner, eyes open wide.) You only learn emotionally. If you do not learn emotionally, you do not learn.

This does not mean, again, that such demonstrations are overly emphasized, or a regular occurrence. It does not mean they should be indiscriminately adopted. But when they do occur they will in most instances have occurred for a reason, and will affect witnesses in a most direct manner.

I will explain more clearly the differences in perception that are involved in various trance procedures. You will find this most interesting… Do you want another break?

Do you have an envelope for me?

A circumstance involving a policeman. (Pause.) To do with a fall, or a seeing something through—passing through it completely you see.

Do you have any questions?

(“To do with a fall, or a seeing something through—passing through it completely, you see.” We saw no connections.) Later note by Rob: The Garden of Eden-the “Fall?”

(First Question: Is this old hand male or female? “I am not sure, though I suspect male. The hand is not a typically male hand however, but more delicate perhaps.” Seth is correct, in that the old reference here does concern Bill Gallagher and his subjective feelings [the male], on the evening of his birthday party, for which the envelope object was written. Jane and I do not especially see any connection with the delicate hand reference however.
