“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Pause at 10:26. I couldn’t distinguish words or meanings here. I concentrated merely on trying to convert the sounds into letters:) “Wwwwhhhheeeeeeeuuuuuuunnnnn……Aaaahhhhhhmmmmmmnn……Wwwwhhhheeeeeeee……Baaaayyyyyyeeeeeeeuuuuu……Sssseeeeeeeuuuuuuugggghhhheeeee.”

(10:28. Jane’s head vibrated quickly from side to side on a small scale, not at all disruptive, as she continued:) “Wwwweeeeeeee……Cooooooommmmmmmmeeeee……Wwwweeeeeeeeee……Aaaahhhrrrrrrr……Thhhheeeeeeee……Iiiiinnnnneeeeerrrrr……Mmmmooooossssshhhhhiiiiiooooonnnnnnnn……Ssssoooooooooot.” (“We come. We are the inner motion —” I couldn’t decipher the last syllable or word.)

(10:38. Jane slumped in her rocker, eyes closed. She had trouble getting them open. She remembered giving the variations on the sounds and methods of speech. She told me that “something” wanted to manifest through her so slowly that it was almost inexpressible; she’d felt deep rolling sounds going through her, yearning to be translated, yearning to make sense in our terms. “It would have taken me three hours to do it right.” The slow material simply came out that way when she tried to express it. She couldn’t really understand what “they” wanted her to do, if anything.

(The day after this session, Jane greatly enlarged upon her original estimate — three hours — of the time she’d need to interpret the long or slow sounds. Now she felt that “to do proper justice to them would take years — centuries perhaps.” Because of our ordinary time sense the sounds were actually so slow to us that they appeared to be motionless, or “dead,” she told me, leading us to speculate that this may be one of the reasons why in usual terms we call inanimate matter — rocks, for instance — “dead.” But Jane couldn’t really define any sources behind last night’s material, beyond calling them “consciousnesses, or beings — but maybe not personalities as we think of that term.” Then, again increasing her estimate, she said that if “they” tried to communicate with us through sound, through our sensual equipment, “it would take forever.”

5. I was surprised to hear Jane’s somewhat embarrassed references to the third eye, since I couldn’t remember her mentioning it before in the sessions. The third eye (sometimes called the “back eye”) is the legendary organ of psychic perception, supposedly located behind the forehead. In occult science it’s been connected with the pineal body, or gland, that mysterious member of the endocrine system is buried deep within the brain, and through the centuries has been considered by many — including the French philosopher and mathematician, René Descartes (1596–1650) — to be the seat of the soul.
