“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This afternoon Jane told me that in her sleep last night she’d had bleed-throughs from Seth about the material to come next in his book. She described it to me — and tonight Seth followed that subject matter very closely in the first part of the session. I suggest the reader review the 711th session in connection with this evening’s data to 11:26.)

(Jane commented here on something I’d also become aware of in recent sessions. For whatever reasons since holding the 709th session, she hasn’t had to wait for that certain, more “difficult” kind of trance to develop before launching into Seth’s book material; see the note at 10:55 for that session. In some fashion she can’t describe, Jane is now able to reach the “right” trance state, or to arrive at it, much more easily. For other contrasting examples, in Volume 1 see the notes closing out sessions 688 and 703, as well as related material in Appendix 4, wherein I wrote about the translation challenges she’s often faced since beginning “Unknown” Reality: “— hence her talk before many of these sessions … about attaining that ‘certain clear focus,’ or ‘the one clearest place in consciousness,’ before she began speaking for Seth.”

(“I get the strangest feeling of ‘folded time’ during the sessions,” Jane continued “I’m caught. I can get more on the book or some on me. I don’t know what to do. I know the book stuff is all right there — but it takes time to get it. It’s too bad I can’t get it instantaneously.⁸ I really want both sets of material, so I guess I’ll wait and see what happens….”

(End at 12:23 A.M. At the breakfast table some hours later, Jane told me that once again she’d “worked on Seth’s book all night.”

2. A note added six months later: These lines are from a personal session Seth delivered on April 29, 1975, just five days after finishing dictation on “Unknown” Reality (in the 744th session): “Our books, and I am including Ruburt’s, fall into no neat category … In the beginning, particularly, and for that matter now, Ruburt had no accepted credentials. He is not a doctor of anything, for there is no one alive who could give him a degree in his particular line of research, or in yours … He hides behind no credentials, or social system, or dogma….”

8. Jane has had strong yearnings before to instantaneously receive book material that was “immediately available.” See the closing notes for Appendix 7 in Volume 1, in which are described her feelings of intense frustration at her inability to speak all at once the contents of a potential book, The Way Toward Health.
