“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane nodded, eyes closed.) For many reasons, most of which you have both discussed. He is somewhat in a state of shock, having been brought up short. He will quickly readjust however, for he now has faith in the new direction of his work. Now give us a moment.

Give us a moment. (Pause, eyes closed. Jane’s trance was now deeper, her delivery more emphatic and a little stronger.) We will want to deal overall with the nature of reality as it exists within your camouflage system, as it exists in other systems, and with the overall characteristics that pertain to it, regardless of any given manifestation. That is, certain characteristics belong to reality, regardless of the methods by which it brings itself forth.

(9:57. Jane’s eyes stayed closed while she shook her head from side to side. Slowly her eyes cracked open. “He’s still going on,” she said. “The next line was to be: your current scientific and religious ideas of reality are like children’s tales.” This receiving of more data as she comes out of trance is a sign, a recent one, that Jane’s trance was deep.

These experiments will run along with and closely follow the vocalized expression of the concepts involved. The experiences will give you some small glimmering of unfortunate but necessary loss of meaning that occurs when any concept must be communicated in physical ways.

There was no point in my mentioning this before. The Seth portion of me has been intimately connected with you both, and so in that respect have I. (Pause.) This is all closely related to the definition of a personality energy essence, from which of course all individuals spring.

(10:33. Jane’s eyes were open and dark, and I had visions of her continuing to speak in trance while I competed in trying to bring her out of it. Nothing like this developed. As Seth recently suggested, I spoke her name aloud three times. Her eyes closed and her head began to nod. I repeated the procedure and thought I saw signs that Jane was leaving trance.

(As Seth also suggested, I touched her leg at the ankle, since she sat across from me at the coffee table with her feet upon it. This too helped. I continued speaking to her and touched her other ankle. This time Jane jumped, very nearly violently, her eyes closed. In a few moments she said the mere touch caused her reaction. By now she was consciously aware that something definitely unusual had been taking place, and the second touch conflicted here.

(Jane said, eyes closed, “I don’t know what to do now.” Her feeling was related, she now said, to the feeling she’d had all day, the lethargy, in a way she couldn’t explain. Yet apprehension wasn’t a part of it. She now felt chilly. I got her a glass of water.

(Jane said she knew that if I hadn’t closed her off she’d still be going; she still felt the energy surging within her. “It’s wild.” She found herself breathing deeply. She had an odd feeling of elephantiasis in her head, she said: “My ears feel like they’re out to here” —and she held up her hands a foot away from her ears. This is an effect both of us have noted occasionally before.
