“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Here is a summary of our free-association material for Monday afternoon, May 7, 1984:

(This is important to note: after we’d had our talk, I suddenly realized that my gums had stopped bothering me. I told Jane I’d forgotten about the situation. The lesson is obvious, as I wrote when I got home: Sharing the challenge with those others who are involved helps a great deal, and may be vital. The others can, it seems, help minimize the negative aspects of a situation while enhancing the positive. Have I helped Jane in this manner, or hindered her by reinforcing joint negative beliefs? But the event helped me get first-hand experience with the therapeutic benefits that can stem from simple communication. It reminded me of the therapist’s classic couch. I want to discuss this more with Jane.)

(This is a summary of our free-association material for Tuesday, May 8, 1984 — Jane’s 55th birthday:

(Jane tried using the pendulum I carry in my wallet; this followed from our discussions about my using the pendulum of late. Since I’ve been achieving considerable relief with my gum challenges the last few days, Jane has become increasingly interested. She’s also somewhat intimidated, saying that I get better results than she does — whereas I think her own attitude gets in her way and that comparisons shouldn’t be made. We also had trouble with it today because, it being her birthday, several extra interruptions took place as various staff members came in to sing to us, and so forth. They brought cards and foil toys. I gave Jane a card and candy, and brought in forsythia, which moved her to tears. The yellow-flowered shrubs grow in the front yard of the hill house.

(The aftereffects from the “form” lingered as we talked about it and I made these notes. Jane hadn’t been consciously thinking about psychic matters. Earlier I’d read her the verse from the birthday card I’d bought her yesterday, and she had enjoyed that as much as she had yesterday, when I’d read it to her for the first time. Both of us had felt emotion at the reading, both times. She didn’t know if that might have triggered her experience. But our feelings engendered by the reading of the card were valuable events in themselves.
