“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

“— and we’re speaking of personality now,” Jane said, coughing again. “As the seed falls, blown by the wind in any environment, so there’s a seed of personality that rides on the wings of itself and falls into the worlds of many times and places. Falling with a sound that is its own true tone, struck in different chords.”

“Seth — or somebody’s saying — maybe it’s just me — relates to the people in our time. I’ve tried to do the same thing, but I suddenly heard my own true tone, which I’m bound to follow … to go beyond the conventionalized postcards … I’m done, Bob.”

(11:03 P.M. “Wow, I’m out, I’m telling you,” Jane said rather groggily after a few moments. “I don’t know how you’re going to put this together with the Seth stuff. It’s like a note that finds its own true tone, and when it does nothing else makes sense. That’s all I can say. But once you strike it, you know that’s it.”

(“I know there’s a universe between my chair here [in the living room] and the kitchen floor,” Jane said as she got up, “but I can walk it okay. When you strike your own true tone, you recognize it and you’ve got it made. You know your own meaning in the universe, even if you can’t verbalize it….”

(Much of Jane’s day had been made up of a series of altered, and at times even near-ecstatic states of consciousness, each one expressing a unique and creative facet of her essentially mystical nature.¹⁰ Even though not at her best, she’d been able to draw upon lavish amounts of energy. I think that her experience with inner sound after the session represented her interpretation of the information Seth gave on feeling-tones, some two years ago; see the 613th session for Chapter 1 of Personal Reality. There are certainly deep connections between Jane’s apprehension of her true tone, and Seth’s statement in that session that each of us possesses certain qualities of feeling uniquely our own, “… that are like deep musical chords.” He went on to say at 10:06: “These feeling-tones, then, pervade your being They are the form your spirit takes when combined with flesh.” I also think that Jane’s sensing of her true path reflects her understanding of Seth’s subsequent remark at 10:16 [in that 613th session]: “The feeling-tone is the motion and fiber — and timbre — of your energy devoted to your physical experience.¹¹

“Each frequency, so to speak, functions as a messenger, triggering body response before an actual reaction is apparent … In any body difficulty, the light and sound frequencies become out of tune, you might say. The overall ‘true tone’ is muddied. When Ruburt began Politics he experienced his ‘true tone’ mentally and psychically. Though he did not realize it, this gave him something to go by, so that now … he is unconsciously [still] bringing about the physical equivalent of that true tone.”
