“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Rich was half embarrassed and half serious; at the height of the exchange between the two, Seth’s addresses to Rich were so fast I couldn’t hope to record them. After pictures were over, Seth also returned several times to answer some of Rich’s questions. The session itself, between parries at Rich, Seth addressed to Rich and to Diane, answering questions they had asked before its beginning.

(Rich asked some good questions. Seth told us that he had been a Catholic in two past lives. In another past life, Seth said he had been a member of a religion that no longer existed in our terms; that he would tell Jane and me about it some time, and that we would find it very interesting.

Now. If it makes Ruburt nervous to have his picture taken, it does not bother me, and I welcome you (Rich and Diane) to our session. I have a few remarks to make to our friend Ruburt in opening the session. It seems to me that by now he could learn to trust his impulses. He did not feel that he wanted to lecture or to be connected with the group as yet, and indeed the time has not yet come. He will be involved with that organization. Tell him that I told him not to intellectualize in such instances, but to follow his original impulses.

Now. Give us a moment. I want to clear up some points regarding your portrait of the old woman, that you are using in the book. It is a past life portrait, though the clothing is interpretive on your part. This was an existence in which you were the mother of five, as I have told you. The existence however was some time ago, BC, hence you see the clothing itself does not apply. Now this was a Near East life. There are also other portraits that you will do involving your family at that time. Give us a moment, for some other data...

I would like the book, mine, to run approximately the same length as the one which he has just finished. There will be 20 chapters, and I will write the headings for them. I will also see that all the proper information is given in time, and I will try to see to it that Ruburt has the experiences that he should have in order to write his own next book.

(During break both Rich and Diane asked questions that Seth undertook to answer to some extent. However the pace soon became too fast for my notes; because of this and the funny goings-on between Rich and Seth, I soon gave up note-taking. The session itself lasted perhaps until 10:15. But with Seth returning several times to speak to Rich and Diane, it was close to midnight before the affair was wound up.

This is not the hope of the individual.... But it represents the hope of the race at this time—that you need to use these abilities...
