“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Before the session began I asked Jane to comment on two points made in the last session: The 442nd session was held on Monday, October 14. On Thursday, October 17, Jane unexpectedly received a royalty check from F. Fell re her ESP book; this after Seth had stated on page 107 that Jane would soon receive unexpected word regarding a book. The royalty check was expected later in the year. I wanted to know if this check represented the word referred to by Seth.

(I also wanted the latest word on the status of the auto accident probability data, involving Jane, and given on page 111 of the last session. Seth did not comment on either of these questions, as will be seen.

(Jane began speaking as Seth in a rather slow manner.)

([John and I:] “Good evening, Seth.”)

(Note that on page 107 of the 442nd session, Seth also predicted a considerable improvement soon in Jane’s physical condition. Jane has received her expected note from Harry Edwards in England, concerning absent healing, and in answer to Jane’s monthly report; therefore another letter soon from Edwards would be unusual.)

(This was a surprise, and it took me a moment to realize that Seth was referring to his own larger personality, his entity as we call it, and for whom Jane has occasionally spoken in a much different voice. See Jane’s notes at the end of this session.

(I found myself wondering how it was possible for Jane to be speaking for Seth, while at the same time being aware of Seth’s entity. I was not sure if this is quite the same situation that has prevailed in the past when Jane has spoken for both Seth and his entity during the same session.)

(Again a surprise, since we hadn’t thought of asking Seth for any data re the astronauts due for reentry tomorrow morning. This is for the Apollo 7, our first three-man spacecraft, in orbit for 11 days—a highly successful flight. We haven’t read of any experiments the crew might have conducted involving the ionosphere; or any other experiments, actually.)

(9:35. Jane’s trance was a good one but she came out of it easily enough after I spoke to her. She now told us that the other personality was about, and that she felt the pyramid effect to a mild degree. She whispered: “The other one is around here.” She began to sense the pyramid at break, after Seth had finished. We now explained something to John about the other personality, since he didn’t know anything about it.

(John and I waited. Two minutes passed. Jane sat with her head back, eyes closed, head nodding a little back and forth—an effect often noticed since last break. Jane coughed finally, and I began to speak to her. Then Seth came through, loud and clear; the suddenness startled us. The contrast between the two voices, the mannerisms, was marked.

(Seth:) Now that big brother has had his say, I will bring our Ruburt back to you, and let you take a break. He will be quite here, very shortly.

(Jane said that with the new personality she was still not sure how to leave. In this instance she merely waited, then felt Seth, warm and emotional, sweep in to help her back. She said that some sounds could bother her while speaking for the other personality, and that if I touched her without preparation she’d feel as though she’d fall through space, yell out, etc.

(When she could finally talk Jane revealed that she had been experiencing a concept to accompany the personality’s words; this she has done before when speaking for Seth’s entity, and we have been told before that this is one of the reasons or purposes for her speaking for this new personality. But this one was a rough trip, Jane said. This experience, Jane said, “wasn’t great.”

(“I’m on my way to the other guy,” she said. “I just passed Seth and he joked with me—something about a massive encounter.”

(11:02. Jane paused, and I spoke to her again. She said to me in a whisper: “Get me out of it.” I touched her shoulder and called her name a few times, as Seth once suggested I do, and she came out of the trance easily enough. This was the end of the session.
