“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Some now made perfect sense. I circled numbers 1, 5 and 8 (see prediction listing) which read: “Snow ball machine, snowshoes, detective.” Surely they all applied to Ed’s letter in which he mentioned his Alaskan ski trip, and friends he had when he and Rob did the detective comic strip.

So as I listened to our visitor (I’ll call him Larry) talk, I browsed through the letter. My thoughts went back to the years when Ed and Rob produced the detective comic strip Mike Hammer together with Micky Spillane. Then I thought of Ed’s first letter of two years ago, breaking a twenty-year-old silence, mailed from Alaska where Ed was skiing. In fact, the letter before me mentioned the Alaskan ski trip. That might have been the reference that suddenly gave me small shivers.

The predictions weren’t the greatest, but they had a satisfying feel. I figured that “snow ball machine” and “snow shoes” were my interpretations to describe any snow equipment. Besides skiing Ed probably used a snowmobile and snowshoes. So I granted them as fair-enough predictions, particularly in summertime when normal associations didn’t usually involve snow. I also granted a “fair” prediction to “detective.”

[...] In the meantime, they might have hired detectives, and all objective avenues may have yielded no results, until by chance they meet at the corner grocery.

Before that meeting, while consciously doing what they thought should be done—hiring detectives, searching down clues—they each followed inner directions without knowing it, because you are not taught to think of such things.

[...] They hired detectives to find each other—a clear-cut motive that seemingly had little to do with their own separate personal lives, their jobs, or their families. [...]

[...] They had no idea of faith in the terms of which we are speaking, yet in Framework 2 their desires came about—and not as a result of detective work.

[...] I had no doubt that when Seth resumed dictation, it would be impossible to detect any sign of a break in continuity.

[...] Thus sound, even though detected by ear, would act also as a stimulus to the body’s detection of the same sound via feeling.

(Seth proceeded to name three currently famous television detectives.)

In their own ways, these are heroes representing the detective who is out to protect good against evil, to set things right. [...]

[...] Christ is one of these: in some respects the most ideal detective — in a different context, however — out to save the good and to protect the world from harm. [...]

[...] He might then come on himself in the guise of [the hero detective], but enlarging upon the characterization, adding more dimension to the plot. [...]

They are smaller than small, to be sure, but soon your scientific instruments will detect them; though I do not believe their significance will be understood. But many such units cannot by any stretch of the imagination be considered as particles in these terms; and while certain of their effects are detectable both chemically and electrically within your system, they cannot be examined directly with instruments.

[...] She didn’t want to do such psychic detective work, she said, because it reminded her of her own difficulties—an obvious point we both mentioned. [...]

The person interested in the psychic pursuit of the wicked, for example, certainly has as much in common basically with the policeman or detective as he or she has with other psychics, regardless of the differences that seem to exist. [...]

[...] The dream involving Magnum showed that like a detective you are making a search—only your search is in the larger area of creativity. [...]

[...] I’d detected a distinctly childlike feeling in her singing, of a woman who is over 90 years old. [...]

[...] Like detectives, these search the world, looking in a completely different way than a physical sleuth. [...]

(“Will we ever be able to detect such constructions by instruments?”)

In the far future instruments may detect them completely. [...]

Seth didn’t mention it in the session tonight, but Jane and I find it extremely interesting that just last week much national publicity was given to the ongoing two-year-old controversy among cancer specialists over whether women — especially those under 50 years of age — should be given routine mammograms (X-ray examinations) in efforts to detect breast cancer in its early stages.

[...] Involved here are recent diagnostic procedures: the study of the “patient’s” family history, the study of the “density” and structure of her breast tissues as determined by mammogram patterns, and the detection of possibly premalignant cellular changes. [...]

[...] She seems to have no heart trouble, but must wear a harness at home for 24 hours, to detect any heart abnormalities — a monitoring device that, I believe, somehow records electrical heart activity.

It is almost impossible to detect an individual unit, for in its dance of activity it constantly becomes a part of other such units, expanding and contracting, pulsating and changing in intensity, in force, and changing polarity. [...]

[...] When she began speaking the voice was high and distant, with little inflection, and as usual ended on a peculiar upbeat so that at times it was hard to detect the ending of a sentence, etc, Jane moved very little as she spoke; her glasses remained on. [...]

It goes without saying that telepathy is one method by which events are formed as well as perceived, but telepathy hides so far beneath physical perception that it is hardly detected.

It is almost impossible to detect an individual unit, for in its dance of activity it constantly becomes a part of other such units, expanding and contracting, pulsating and changing in intensity, in force, and changing polarity. [...]

[...] The “time out” itself, however, will not be detected in any way, the tracings showing only whatever characteristic pattern was being given immediately before departure.

[...] Until I’d first read the piece a couple of days ago, I hadn’t realized that much progress had been made scientifically in the detection of psychic metal-binding on a micro scale. [...]

[...] You only perceive it as continuous; your perceptive mechanisms are not equipped to detect the pulsations. [...]
