“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

This is not meant as a slur upon Jane’s own excellent abilities. On Jane’s part this would instead be an extension of her personality into areas far beyond the personality’s own capabilities at her time and in her space.

(Last week in one of her ESP classes, Jane found herself speaking as Ruburt, knowing she was doing so. There was evidently strong telepathic/clairvoyant communication with another student when this occurred, for as Ruburt, Jane, while conscious, described a certain ancient scene set about a campfire; Jane and her student, also female, described the same scene. Jane saw the scene clearly, and among other facts realized that in this ancient time both she and the student were existing as males in that life. Jane has been giving this episode much thought.)

These selves are each completely independent from the other, making their own decisions as individuals, as in the most precise meaning you can apply to that term. Following our analogy, Jane’s self 2 is in another position where contact is not possible at this time.

(I seemed to have the ability to shift my focus so as to see more of the scene. I became aware that another figure was seated at a table just in front of the robed figure, with its head, also shadowed, turned toward the robed one. While Jane spoke and as I made my notes, I found time to do a little sketch in the margin. The sketch merely recorded the idea of what I had seen, and noted the composition, for I thought it would make a good painting. I saw all this in color: browns, reds and yellows.

(I did not have time to speculate about who I was seeing. In perhaps a minute the experience had passed. Jane was still speaking as Seth. )

There is something here I am trying to get through to Ruburt, but we are meeting with some blockage and so I shall tell him another time.

Now this information should be highly useful to Jane. Ruburt has at times for that matter passed information from me to Jane. Now it is Jane’s (underlined) responsibility as a present physically oriented creature, to use the psychic and creative abilities that she has to their fullest, and as a legacy to help others.

(My brother William, who lives in Rochester, New York, is driving down to take mother back home with him for a week or two, on November 9. We received a letter from him to this effect yesterday. At first the date had been November 2. The idea of mother spending some time with Dick is not new of course, and this particular visit, postponed several times because of a bus strike, has been in the wind for a long time.)
