“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

We were in the middle of a Seth session and Seth was giving his impressions of the Gallaghers’ trip. As I sat in my favorite rocker speaking as Seth, suddenly I found myself in the back seat of a cab. The next instant the cab took such a sharp turn to the right that I was shoved over into the corner of the seat. For a minute I was really frightened. I wasn’t used to being comfortably seated in the living room one minute and in the back seat of a swiftly moving cab the next!

When Peg and Bill returned, we found out that these impressions were quite legitimate. They had paid a three-dollar cab fare to go to the motel from the airport. Peg was quite angry about this, since the same ride two years earlier had cost less than two dollars. Their cab took a very sharp turn to the right. Peg and Bill remembered this vividly, not only because of the sudden turn, but also because this happened right after the driver had run through a traffic light. The turn had been so sharp that it upset them considerably. But the cab driver was not “old, rather than young.” Interestingly enough, Peg said, he did look old from the rear, though, because his neck had a peculiar rough, mottled look. It was also thick and stubby.

“A cab ride. Our cat lover laughs [Seth’s nickname for Peg, who dislikes cats]. A three-dollar fare which seems too much. An old, rather than young, cab driver with a stubby neck. A destination that is mainly to the right after one turn.”

I had just enough time to see the cab driver’s neck from the rear—it was thick and stubby. I didn’t see his face. While this was going on, I lost all contact with my body in the living room. My subjective sensations were those of someone suddenly thrown off-balance by the sickening swerve of the car’s turn. Yet while this was happening, my physical body sat upright in the rocker, speaking without pause as Seth:

[...] She cannot offer any information on whatever symbol the cab carried however, but did state the cab was of a “light color.” The cab was also in front of a stone building—Garfinkel’s Department Store.

[...] The cab driver did take a sharp right and go in that direction. This happened after the cab driver ran through a red light and frightened us.”)

Also a cab ride. [...]

An old, rather than a younger cab driver, with a stubby neck.

Also a cab ride. [...] An old, rather than a younger cab driver (pause) with a stubby neck.

[...] If it rains you can stay inside, run naked between the raindrops, wear galoshes and carry an umbrella, take a cab, or be so involved in your own activities that you are not even aware that it is raining at all, and the same applies to inclement psychological climates. [...]

[...] The one that comes to mind right now, though there were others, concerns the three-dollar cab fare, which they considered too high, and the right- hand turn, all of which were given here, and which proved out exactly.

[...] Peg was so curious about this that she even questioned a cab driver on his knowledge of the murder events.
