“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We cannot give you all this in one afternoon, for I wander like a minstrel through your own past. In a life just previous to that one however, you were a woman with a bitter tongue, who spoke too often and too harshly, and so you set yourself among other things the task, in the Irish life, of speaking only to music. This is highly simplified of course, there were other reasons, but in singing you were not harsh, and in singing you communicated in a way that you could not in the earlier life, and in the singing also you gave of yourself in a way you did not earlier.

You were also highly involved with what was going on in the country at the time, where in the life immediately previous you cared little for any but your immediate family, and rarely moved beyond your house. In the Irish life therefore you chose to roam freely and to inform others as to the happenings of the time.

Now here you became involved in teamwork, learning how to work cooperatively, closely, with another individual. In the immediately previous life you see you were quite different, and thought only of yourself. The two of you then worked together.
