“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Strictly speaking, we do not believe Seth as we known him and are used to him, gave the material tonight. Jane spoke while in a trance state, but in her usual voice, and received the data from “another source.” Our questions will have to do with the nature of this source, why this particular data came through in this fashion, etc. Jane is used to giving impressions on her own as well as through Seth, but there seemed to be an intriguing difference this evening. Jane would find herself speaking a few lines, then waiting for more to come, which she would then dutifully recite. She felt no other personality’s presence, etc; whatever the source, it appeared to be blocked off from her emotionally and subjectively in the usual sense; yet the material was given.

(9:49. Another break. Jane said she wasn’t aware of any particular source for the data—she was “trancey” and the words just came in. It wasn’t Seth, she said. She didn’t know if she got all the words right, but did as well as she could. As far as she knows, she doesn’t have “the slightest mathematical vocabulary.”

(Jane doesn’t know what Bainbridge means, whether it is Roger’s mother’s maiden name, a place, or what. When the data stopped flowing Jane would just relax and wait for things to come through again. The “have fun” and the use of the word “I” made it seem as though a specific source was responsible for the data.

(10:45. Again the flow of information stopped. Jane said her focus of attention was intense while speaking for whatever the source of data was. She doesn’t recall hearing about psi factors, but I had, and thought she had also at various times, without knowing what the term applied to; the same with cohesives, conciliatory fashion, etc., although these would be much less common to us.

(Jane was really bewildered by this data tonight. To her numbers have no emotional meaning. For this reason any subconscious dramatization would seem to be ruled out; we will investigate the source however.
