“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(Seth here refers to a large painting I have planned and made a pen-and-ink drawing for in small scale. Tonight I explained to Jane the problem involved in determining the correct relationship between background area, and the prophet, who is in a standing position. In this particular painting the background will play an important role, since it is designed to indicate a play of light and shadow. The prophet looks upward to the left, lips parted in speech.)

(At this moment I then consciously knew what my prophet was saying in the painting; the words came clearly to mind: “My God, my God, what am I?” I was tempted to speak them aloud next chance I had, but did not. I hadn’t tried to conjure up these words; the emotional climate set up in the session by Seth had made their release from the subconscious effortless.

(9:45. Jane was rather slow coming out of trance. She said “Seth really put me out. Like a thunderbolt. He always does put me out strong when I talk about anything to do with you and paintings.”

(“I guess you’d better elaborate a little bit.” This is one of those instances where Seth was speaking rather rapidly; I was so busy writing that I had no real time to think about the content of the material. Later upon reading it over it became clear.)

(“That would be good.” And this too brought many questions to mind. After the session Jane and I speculated about just how this might be done. It would be a new situation, as far as we knew. Would Seth relay my questions to Van Elver, then deliver the answers, or what? There were lots of possibilities.)

(“Good night, Seth, and thank you.”

(Jane said she was “little and tiny inside the voice,” which always means that Seth’s presence is strong and immediate. To Jane while in trance, the voice seemed “to be booming all around, with me inside.”)
