“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane surprised me at supper time by saying she felt Seth around and wanted to have a session. “Sometimes when we’re supposed to have a session I don’t feel him at all,” she said. “Other times, like now, I do, so....”

(We thought her desire has been triggered by a book a reader had mailed so that we received it yesterday—Magical Child, by Joseph Chilton Pierce, copyright 1977. Jane has scanned portions of it and found it excellent; we’re surprised that we haven’t heard of it before, especially in light of Pierce’s two bestsellers on The Crack in the Cosmic Egg. Jane said she thought Magical Child contained ideas reminiscent of her own and Seth’s ideas, and was also remindful of a book idea she’s considering at the moment, on the magical self. She had me dig out her notes for this idea yesterday —I believe before the mail, but am not sure.

(The same reader also sent us a copy of a chapter out of a book by a Dr. Ariola, who I think writes for New Realities magazine also on health foods and related topics. The chapter deals with the negative effects and aspects of inoculations, and certainly reinforces Seth’s own material in Mass Events on the harmful effects of many inoculations. Again, we hadn’t heard of Dr. Ariola’s book either. I am filing all of the information discussed here. Jane feels good that “independent sources” have verified Seth’s own material. Indeed, the reader response to Mass Events has been excellent, and possibly already heavier than on any of her previous books.

(Jane has felt fairly well today. She still sleeps pretty good most of the time. We had the Weissenbuehlers visit last night; this afternoon Eve Longwell and daughter Jeanie visited, and we played on the VTR quite a bit of footage from the tapes we’ve made. Jane still has walking difficulties getting from her chairs to the john or bed, and her arms continue to be very uncomfortable.)

(Here Seth referred to several examples of “synchronicity,” involving especially a dream of Ellspeth Weissenbuehler’s, and several events involving herself, Jane. She intends to write up this material for possible future use. “It’s not all that great,” she said, “but that Ellspeth seems able to tune in on us.”)

(A one-minute pause at 8:38. Jane had been speaking quite emphatically between long pauses. Seth’s use of “matrix” above reminded me that before the session Jane had mentioned that he wanted to discuss her Sinful Self material in a new sort of matrix.)

(9:20 PM. Jane had done well. It was almost dark. From the valley south of our hill house intermittent barrages of fireworks had sounded during the session, and even now crackled anew. The situation was reminiscent, I thought, of other sessions we’d held on warm summer nights with the doors and windows open, and listened to the distant sound of fireworks....)
