“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(I read yesterday afternoon’s session to Jane this morning. As we’d discussed last evening, we decided to try for another session this morning, possibly to get more specific material on some of the questions I’d raised in the notes for yesterday’s session. Jane also wanted Seth to comment on her “relaxations” during the day: She sleeps practically all day while sitting in her chair. I hoped these relaxations were signs of a healing process taking place after years of tension. At the same time, I wanted material on why Jane might be perpetuating behavior that might lead her back into the hospital—an experience which she’d found to be so traumatic last time.

(I do seem to be slowly learning that Seth may be avoiding being pinned down to material that’s too specific at this time. Perhaps he feels that it isn’t needed at this time, that it’s simply better to just let Jane’s natural healing abilities do their work, now that that “corner in probabilities” has been turned.... In a strange way, I’ve even become inhibited about asking him the direct questions I think I so much want the answers to. Maybe through the graces of Framework 2, the course we’re following, if reluctantly, isn’t so bad after all at this time.

(On her regular Friday-afternoon visit, Peggy and Jane and I waited for Roe, who was scheduled to visit—but Roe, mysteriously, never showed up. Could she have picked up some sort of message from Jane and me? We don’t know. When Peggy came on Monday afternoon. Roe didn’t show up either, and Peggy didn’t mention it, nor did Peggy dwell on Jane’s bedsores. In some strange way it was as if the whole episode, with its obviously negative implications, never had even been mentioned. I didn’t ask Seth to comment, but should have.

(10:49 AM. Jane’s voice had been quite good. She’d sat with her head down for much of the session. Pauses as usual. Both of us were encouraged. Yes, thank you, Seth. I still felt that surge of expectation and energy, as though we had somehow turned a corner in probabilities. I was keeping the blessings of Framework 2 in mind.

(And in his own way, Seth finally did give us some material on the bedsores. It was much better than I’d dared hope. I feel good about it, and know that Jane will too when she reads the session.)

(“I had something from him [Seth] earlier,” she said, “but you weren’t here....” She struggled to stay awake. “Watch me—I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep. Maybe we better just look stuff over instead.”

(Jane’s delivery had been sporadic in an odd way, her Seth voice subdued, making me feel that she could lose the session at any moment by slipping off into sleep. She put her glasses on, telling me that she’d felt my concern during the session. I said I was hoping she’d be able to continue for at least a little while. I lit a cigarette for her. We waited. “I’ll do what I can,” she said, taking off her glasses. She was still smoking.
