“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane’s new freedom of motion continues in many ways. Many of those ways are small yet, but show signs of enlarging—and none of them even existed a short time ago. Turning her back on her back went much more easily this noon; she’s also dispensed with the pillow between her legs, and using a doughnut sponge we used to use before the leg break. I massaged Jane’s neck, after she had trouble trying to read yesterday’s session. The massage is supposed to help her eyes, according to Seth.

(“Afternoon, Seth.”)

(3:50. Lorrie came in to take Jane’s blood pressure. She gave no sign that she realized Seth was present. Jane broke off at once to speak in a conversational tone. Lorrie is the gal who, with a student nurse, broke Jane’s leg when turning her, when showing the student how to do it. Lorrie smiles and talks to us, but hurries in and out as quickly as she can. I know the episode affected her. After she left I read the last paragraph to Jane. Resume at 3:53.)

(Now I mentioned the idea I’d had last night, and made a note of. It was simply that I’d bring in one of the Seth books and start reading it to her a page at a time. She liked the idea. I told her to name the book, or more than one, if she wanted. I added that as soon as she could handle pages, I could take the book apart so that she could hold each page up while she read it when she was alone. I could leave a stack of them on her bed. This would give her great freedom to read by herself at any time of the day or night. It would be very liberating, I said, truly. She agreed. I thought that the way she was improving, she’d be able to work up to such a step. Also, I could take apart any book for that matter.

(4:25 PM. Interesting material, I told Jane. Seth hadn’t put it that way before. It certainly seemed to apply in her case, and may be a valuable clue. She agreed, having remembered what Seth had said while she was in trance. I interpreted the information as Seth’s way of telling us that those lagging portions of Jane’s psyche were now embarked on their journey to catching up with those other portions that were way ahead—meaning that the psychic abilities were the leaders in Jane’ case.
