“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

It is as if each number represents not only the number itself, not only a unit to be added, subtracted, multiplied or divided, but also as if each number had infinite varieties of intensities that you do not perceive. I am not talking of smaller units within that number, but of the nature of the unit itself.

These multidimensional intensities would be considered as inherent qualities belonging to each number. (One minute pause.) They would represent other dimensional realities inherent in the number itself, and since numbers are only symbols they would therefore represent other dimensional realities inherent in the unit for which the number stood.

As one number quite simply can be added to another without denying the validity of either number, nor the individuality of either number, so a different kind of grouping also takes place (pause), involving (pause), mathematical manipulations of these other intensities that reside within the number units.

[...] (When I said I didn’t know how to write down what she was telling me, Jane said:)Just put: the minus numbers represent negative charges, and mark the activity of ions’ negative flow. The minus numbers mask integers that have a positive meaning or action (pause), and take on the tasks ordinarily assigned in this dimension to the positive ones.

[...] The value of the integers would seem to dissolve (pause) at the speed of light, but it is precisely here that the minus numbers take over and become, or take on, the value of the positive numbers.

If you consider the positive and negative numbers like a spectrum, then, the spectrum shifts. The inner values of the minus numbers have not been, I think, suspected.

The number 202, perhaps an address or room number.

[...] Hotel room number was 916.”)

The number 12, 14 steps and a circular clock, very large, above a stairway, with spokes out from it in gold, of wood, of nautical design.

[...] For example, there have been a far smaller number of truly prominent Speakers than the number given.

[...] Here’s question number one: You said you’d tell us about the third Christ. [...]

(“All right, question number two: Was the statement given by Jane, while speaking for you, correct, that there have been millions of Speakers? [...]

[...] For later reference now add this: along these lines a number can be more than itself, and be duplicated invisibly as an equation, changing the nature of the equation and of the results, while never showing itself. A number can also parade as another number, over-weighing an equation. Some numbers have (in quotes) “silent partners.” They attract certain other numbers more than others.

Certain numbers carry a greater burden than others, and other numbers ride upon their back. [...] The numbers that you know (pause at 10:59) by their existence imply the intrusion of other invisible numbers, and multidimensional numerical systems. [...]

[...] It consists of three pages of rather closely spaced lettering with numbers incorporated in a few of the paragraphs, a couple of diagrams and a symmetrical symbol representing a mandala. [...]

[...] A small rectangular object, perhaps of metal, with numbers upon it. Such as, for example, a small license plate, that would carry numbers and notations, and be metallic and connected with travel. [...]

(“Four numbers. [...] There are many numbers on the object, but we don’t know what is meant by this data.

(“Numbers or mathematics.” The object contains many numbers. [...]

Now, the numbers referred to a number on the card. I do not know if this was a catalog number, but some identifying number.

(I think both numbers in the data, 1942 and 1963, are year numbers. [...] Catalog numbers are not usually year numbers.

[...] Perhaps the passage was on the page number three one five. Perhaps this is the time of the disagreement, or an address number, I do not know.

[...] For Chapter 19 of Politics (which is to be published in 1976) Jane transcribed from her library, in part: “If you imagine the official numbers 1 to 10 in a row, then there would be an infinite number of unofficial 1’s hidden in the 1 you saw, and an infinite number of spaces between the official 1 and 2. The position of the 1 on the paper would represent our sense-data world, while the invisible 1’s behind the official 1 would represent the official 1’s hidden values and infinite probabilities.”

10. In mathematical terms: A prime number is a whole number (not a fraction, for instance) that cannot be exactly divided by any other whole number except itself and 1.

And: “It’s significant that we apply numbers to time, but as there are unrecognized spaces between numbers, there are unrecognized spaces (psychologically invisible) between or within moments, and some of the events of our bodies are ‘too small’ for us to follow, focused as we are in our prime series. [...]

The number 12.

([Bill Gallagher:] “My room number 552 adds up to 12.”)

The number impression again, the series of numbers, perhaps with two initials. [...]

(“The number impression again…initials.” [...] The address also contained a series of numbers.

[...] On the partial copy attached to page 104 I penned in the row of numbers representing the date after the session. [...]

(“I get the numbers one eight eight eight, in connection with this.” My own idea here is that Seth/Jane picked up the three-ring design shown on each of the three glasses depicted on the coaster, and translated or converted this data into the number 8, three times. [...] The numeral 1 appears in the code number, in small type, next to the bottom border.

[...] The number, as a beginning number, was chosen because it does appear, though minutely, on the item itself. [...]

(The number 4 does appear in the small code number printed on the envelope object, inside the bottom border. [...]

[...] This is separate and the woman here…a strong school connection again…3 o’clock or late afternoon…number 414…now this could be the hour 4:14 or month…I do not know…Green room…202 or 213..whether this is a month or year or house number I don’t know…a grip…a strong grip…in the afternoon…in a room…a woman, gray hair, buck teeth…yellow teeth…She yells out and calls and a young boy comes in blue clothes & bicycle…I think he rides….It’s 1943 or 1947…Room is green…yellow…Room is green…no, cream…yellow…it’s afternoon…..

[...] Episode in 6th grade very important… very important year… See 5 years or number 5…I do not understand… A complete change of opinion in family group that did not work to your advantage… Perhaps 1947 or 1943…a disturbance…a connection with another child…initial F & perhaps M…something on an occasion beneath pine trees…& water… CM (?) the M. in Greenwich…1937 or 1938, another child, a male….

This was simply to lead me up, or to lead Ruburt up, to the number six. I saw the number six twice, which led me to think it was significant. With numbers I use this device, and have in the past, counting aloud to the number that I want.

[...] Four, the number four. [...]

[...] The numbers three, four, five, six. [...]

(The object also contains the number 5 twice, in the serial number and the price. I didn’t ask Seth about this, but perhaps the number 5 at the beginning of the above data was used to lead to the rest of it involving the gathering, etc.

[...] It is printed in black on card stock, with the serial number in a light blue ink. [...]

A connection with the number 5. This could refer to a date or to five people. [...]

(The numbers “Four seven” are on the pass, and also “four numbers, I believe in a row,” if you want to isolate this many from longer groups. On the last line of the data on Miss Bunn some numbers are barely legible; we can see the impression of four numbers in a row here also.

(“A miscellany of objects, designs that appear like numbers,” is we think a reference to the words and numbers on the pass. [...] The visitor’s pass contains a number code referring to Miss Bunn’s hospital record, Lorraine tells us; and the pass is like a page from a book, in that such passes are kept in spiral books at the hospital.

A miscellany of objects, designs that appear like numbers. [...]

[...] If you have an unlisted number, then your only contact with the people will be by mail. [...]

[...] I suggest now, however, that you have an unlisted number—but also follow the recommendations concerning mail.

Now I would be number six self, so to speak, according to Dunne. [...] Nevertheless I would be a number six self. [...] For as a number six self I have complete knowledge of all the other selves.

Now I could indeed be Ruburt’s number six self, you see. [...] It is entirely possible however, using Ruburt as an example, for Ruburt’s number six self, to communicate with Ruburt’s number one self; these communications sifting through the intervening selves however, and unfortunately. [...]

[...] But these strains, and this data, to some extent lift the number one self from the limitations of the number one time, and lends an advancement ordinarily not possible. For the number one time has changed for both of you since our sessions began, and it no longer seems the prison that it did earlier.

[...] The course of the ego is a precarious one, and any number of potential egos exist within any identity. [...]

[...] It is true that the personality is a gestalt, and that every identity has any number of potential egos. [...]

The energy that composes personality therefore consists of an inconceivable number of separate identities. [...]

(“A string of numbers. Either four numbers, the number four many times, or four separate indications on the item or object.” The only connection we see with the object here is that a number on it is repeated—1 cent is shown twice. [...] There is a string of symbols across the bottom of the object, but mainly of letters, rather than numbers.

[...] A string of numbers. Either four numbers, the number four many times, or four separate indications on the item or object.

[...] April is the fourth month; the number four also shows; and the number 1 in 1966. A 2 also shows in the serial number on the right back edge of the object. [...]

(“and with objects in a row, or a series, perhaps of numbers.” The date on the object can be thought of as a series of numbers; we think however that here Seth refers to the six-digit serial number on the back of the object, along the right-hand edge: M507832.

(“A distant connection here incidentally with a birthday, and the number seven.” [...] There is a number 7 in the upper left hand corner of the object, on the back. [...]
