“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Since I liked him—Michael— as we talked, I sat on the front steps for a few minutes with him. Our neighbor Marian came by, looking for her dog; she stopped to talk to us. By then over half an hour had passed. I gave up on the session. Jane laughed inside the house. We invited our guest in for a beer. He was from Port Arthur, Texas. He was quite intelligent, a musician who had written an “opera,” he told us. Like a number of our other recent callers, he was traveling around the country, seemingly free of all ties, doing odd jobs on occasion, but living on little money. In a way I envied them. Michael had no place to stay, regardless of the weather.

Over the years he developed patterns of behavior to deal with threatful situations. In a large manner, and beneath all, the situations themselves could vary, and are not the main issue.

(We laughed about it. At the same time I was thinking over Seth’s material in this session so far. I remarked to Jane that if we paid attention to that material, then instead of turning away the people who would be influenced by the newspaper notice, we might be able to influence some of them to buy Seth/Jane’s books.
