“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane and I sat for the session as usual on Monday, May 5, but it was not held. Jane at session time was in an extremely relaxed state, and she could not bring Seth through, although we waited until 10 PM.

(Tam Mossman and his fiancée Eve had been our guests over the past weekend, May 2—4; he had heartily approved the work Jane has completed on the Seth book and we thought that this belief might have something to do with Jane’s very relaxed state. Jane said no conscious suggestions, that she was aware of, had been involved today or this evening. Tam is Jane’s editor at Prentice-Hall, Inc.

(Jane said the sensations were “like a loss of tension,” and I thought it was a general release from her symptoms, at least temporarily, plus a dissociated state. While sitting in the usual rocking chair she uses during sessions, Jane said that at times she felt as though she were outside the house, enjoying the spring air, grass, flowers, etc. She told me that at various times Seth was around during the evening while we waited, but never did come through.

(The session on Wednesday was held as usual, and of course we asked Seth for an explanation of Monday’s events.)

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(More irritation on my part. I felt, and still do as this is written, that Seth gave only a partial answer to the original question, concerning the purposes and awarenesses of the inner self; I intend to press for a more complete answer.)

(When Jane’s symptoms were intensified following the exceptionally relaxed state of Monday night. No matter what improvements may have taken place, as Seth states, during such times it is very difficult to be aware of anything but the present.)
