“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] I am digressing here to bring you another issue: the strong responsibility he always felt toward his writing ability, he naturally felt toward the psychic ability—but without the necessary sense of discrimination, since he didn’t realize what such activities involved.

[...] She didn’t get this information in exact words, she said, but felt it and had to translate it:

[...] She said that Seth didn’t care about her position. [...]

[...] I hope they didn’t make me interfere with the material. [...]

[...] The session is much longer than usual, since Seth didn’t have to go slow for my note-taking, but could plunge ahead. [...]

([Ron:] “Since we are talking about nonconceptual things, you made a statement several sessions ago which I didn’t understand.” [...]

[...] She said she didn’t know what kind of a session we would have, yet by 8:58 she reported that she could “feel him.” [...]

[...] I didn’t know how they got in. [...]

(We had but a 5-inch reel, and since the hypnosis material was also on this reel we didn’t think we could record the whole Seth session, even with 4-track technique. [...]

[...] So, although we didn’t pinpoint the exact cause of the error, at least it has been corrected.)

[...] According to her, if man didn’t emerge from the animals, there were certainly close relationships involved — a dance of probabilities between the two, as it were. [...] Although she left Appendix 6 unfinished, it contains many ideas worth more study: “Some of the experiments with man-animals didn’t work out along our historic lines, but the ghost memories of those probabilities still linger in our biological structure … The growth of ego consciousness by itself set up both challenges and limitations … For many centuries there was no clear-cut differentiation between various aspects of man and animal … there were parallel developments in the emergence of physical man … there were innumerable species of man-in-the-making in your terms….” [...]

[...] As I interpret what I’ve read, Darwin didn’t deny the existence of a god of some kind, but he wanted one that would abolish what he saw as the “upward” struggle for existence. [...]

[...] But at least I didn’t let outdated concepts dictate what portions of my own experience I could accept as real, and what portions I must reject. [...]

[...] (Jane gestured with the envelope, which by now she had lowered from her forehead.) Give us time… Mention of building, or implied mention… (Pause, but I didn’t wait long enough.)

[...] Jane wondered why the couple asked her to share a drink if they didn’t mean it. [...]

[...] However, this evening I did not attempt to answer your guest’s two questions, not because I disapproved, merely because at this point the material is the important thing, and I didn’t want to be sidetracked.

[...] I told her I didn’t. We walked around the room. [...]

[...] 6/6, sometime in the AM: I wanted to get a pair of stockings but didn’t know whether the store I had in mind, the Walnut St. Market, carried them. [...]

[...] This I regard as excellent data pertaining to the object, whereas Jane said it had no particular meaning for her because she didn’t know the specifics concerning the way I usually buy Masonite.

[...] But the thing was, Jane mused now, that she didn’t think “Sue’s family” was on the list Seth had just given: “It was something like Gramada, but that wasn’t it….” [...]

12. A note added later: I’m sorry to write that Seth didn’t discuss historical probabilities in the 736th session, or national counterparts either. [...]
