“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(As quickly as she could once she became aware of what was happening that Sunday morning, Jane typed a 3-page summary or outline of the contents for The Way Toward Health, including chapter headings, then wrote a very condensed statement about how the whole thing came to her. We’re presenting the statement below, and a few examples from the outline, in order to show some of her other activities while producing “Unknown” Reality. Thus, everything she’s received so far on the health book is on file, ready to be used should she choose to follow this new idea any further.

(Jane had some other insights into Seth’s multiple channels as she continued dictating Personal Reality after that session,¹ yet we continued to think of the new development as one of mostly theoretical interest. Close to 18 months passed. Then on the morning of March 10 — the Sunday before last — we learned that we may have to rethink the idea of Seth-Jane producing more than one major work at a time; for on that day Jane received the outline for another book, along with the knowledge that she’d need Seth’s help in producing it. The book’s title is The Way Toward Health. Jane wrote at the time, then told me, that she almost felt “the book could be Personal Reality Number Two.” She added that her experience in “getting it” was related not only to her ability to sense that sometimes more than one stream of material was available from Seth, but to the way that she herself had tuned into the information on neurological speeds late last month. That episode had taken place just before she delivered the 686th session for this volume of “Unknown” Reality, and is described in Appendix 5.

(As of now, however, I’d say that she doesn’t have much inclination to do so. Nor do I. Perhaps, even knowing Jane’s unique creative abilities as well as we do, we’re each somewhat daunted by the thought that consciously we might not be able to concentrate enough on two such projects at once. I do believe it possible for Jane to deliver “Unknown” Reality and The Way Toward Health concurrently through Seth, and to carry on her “regular” writing, for I think we have yet to learn the limits of her abilities [although as she continues to develop them she increases our knowledge of human potential]. Right now she’s working on the final draft of Chapter 5 of her own theoretical work on psychic matters, Adventures in Consciousness.

(See Appendix 7 for an account of Jane’s accomplishment of a week ago Sunday, when, in an altered state of consciousness, she received the outline for a potential new book, The Way Toward Health.

(We held just one session last week, and it did not involve work on either “Unknown” Reality or the book on health. [...]
