“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(We were visited after supper this evening by Leonard Yaudes and Ann Kraky. As we waited for tonight’s session, Jane said she thought that Seth was organizing material about the four of us, our years together at 458 West Water St., and the flood of 1972—but that when we decided upon the questions listed above, Seth changed his tactics: he began to organize that material instead—“reorganizing what he’d already planned, in order to put it all together,” as Jane put it. She could feel the process. I suggested to Jane that she make some notes about the phenomenon.)

All societies are different. The tenants at 458 at one time formed a kind of family, and to some extent that relationship continues, as far as the two of you are concerned, with Ann and Leonard. You remember past tenants together as people recall distant or dead family members. And in particular you chose the conditions of the flood and took part in a joint history.

To some extent you all have characteristics that are similar, while of course there are differences. In one way or another, however, you have not accepted the traditional social roles. Neither Ann or Leonard married. You married, but not at the usual age—later. You did not have children. Leonard and Ann also have a certain stubborn independence. When they look at your relationship with Ruburt they still assure themselves that it is after all not the traditional marriage.
