“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(It wasn’t until after the Canadian couple had left us, actually, that the implications of what had happened began to sink in. I thought the odds alone staggering that it had happened at all. During their visit the woman, Carol, several times expressed the thought that she returned the second time, to see if we were home, because “it was meant to be,” or words to that effect. She also said that if we hadn’t been home, that was meant to be also. Carol had met an individual named Ron who had visited us here at 1730 two years or so ago—not long after we’d moved in, incidentally. Jane and I haven’t seen Miss Dineen except once soon after Miss Callahan’s death at least 10 years ago. Personally, I do not think I would know her if we met.

In its own way, the James connection happened in the same fashion, for your desires and beliefs go out in all directions in time. Your context outlive your deaths. The particular connections here are too complicated to try to explain, but they do involve James’s intense interest during his life in the future of his own work, and in the state of the psychic field of the future.

I am sometimes at a loss for words, believe it or not, for often explanations make things sound more difficult than they are. All of this happens quite naturally. To some extent or another after death you retain psychic connections with anyone you have ever met during a lifetime. The connections can be strong or weak, some important some trivial, but they form a psychic network, so to speak.

The living people, so involved in this network, will have their own other encounters, of course, but again through a psychological selectivity. You can be aware after death of those encounters also. There are implications I am not expressing adequately, and it may be impossible to do so.

In a manner of speaking, the gentleman’s (Hal) visit, while Ruburt is doing the James book, completes an intent on James’s part that he had in life. The event, again, in a way is even separate from Ruburt’s present connection with James, but followed as a result of James’s living curiosity regarding highly gifted mediums that might exist after his death.
