“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.

This instability isn’t noticeable here, even after the 9th power, but it exists. The unpredictability seems to result in the dissolution of quadrants under certain conditions. The value of the integers would seem to dissolve (pause) at the speed of light, but it is precisely here that the minus numbers take over and become, or take on, the value of the positive numbers.

(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.

(We hoped that after this rest Seth would come through and explain what was going on, but instead Jane resumed as before. She spoke in her own voice, rapidly and slowly by turn, eyes open often and with many a pause and puzzled expression. Resume at 10:00.)

Now, with him the date 1936. And unless I’m balled up I think 1936 is the year he published or initiated some of his theories. Correctly interpreted, they would lead as mentioned earlier to an unsuspected unpredictability of integers under certain conditions, and the unpredictability is the clue that would lead to the thus-far hidden values. (Pause.)

(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.
