“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I had four questions for Seth. 1. Why does Jane often feel blue when she wakes up from naps? 2. Why does she have trouble typing manuscripts—as with Seven currently? 3. A couple of days ago I wondered aloud if part of Jane’s difficulties might stem from her blocking out impressions that she may be picking up at random from those around her, as well as from the environment. The idea being that she may fear something like invasion, in exaggerated form and so has set up a rigid system of physical, symbolic protection. Such a need wouldn’t have developed, of course, until she became aware of her psychic abilities to begin with. 4. As we discussed those questions before the session, I wondered whether the poor results of her daily predictions concerning the mail might have a similar basis, whether she told herself or not that she wanted such impressions to work out.

Ruburt felt he had to explain to the world, and he began to cut off experiences that he did not intellectually find decisive answers for. This does apply to the predictions and to his attitudes toward the mail—which are highly ambiguous.

(“What do you think of that reading Jane received in the mail today?” I referred to a reading by the medium, Elwood Babbit, given for someone who had written Jane several months ago; the individual subsequently saw Babbitt, and sent Jane a copy of the long, rambling, very generalized material that could have applied to many people. We noted wryly that the correspondent made no mention of what EB had charged for the reading. Jane was scandalized and embarrassed by the reading. I was sorrowful and appalled. She repeated that there must be something wrong with her attitude toward affairs of that kind, but I said I didn’t think so.
