“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Later I wondered whether Seth had been trying to get at the idea of string crossing itself around a package. A package of course is mentioned on Jane’s list, page 190. The cross effect can be easily found in the way I habitually wrap packages with strings and in the way I specifically wrapped the package to be mailed to the Bernards, thus:

(One of Jane’s chores Tuesday, not on the list but performed along with the listed items, was to mail a package to Sarah Bernard, who along with her husband visited us from North Carolina over last weekend. See the last session. The package contained a sweater Sarah forgot. The Bernards had visited Florida a few weeks ago. Jane had made her own list of errands to run Tuesday, and this included a visit to the post office to buy stamps, as well as mail the package. See Jane’s list, page 190 also.

(The two lists were linked in Jane’s mind of course by images, common goals, etc, of many kinds. One item of similarity showing up on both lists is the “cash check" data, referring to a check I had received for a painting recently….The mail package data on Jane’s list refers to the errand package discussed on page 195 under the Florida data. I had forgotten to add this item to my list.

(My next quick sketch as Jane continued speaking for Seth: Is this sign, +, a reference to the string wrapped around the Bernard package? Thus: )

Then, really astonished, I see some packages that simply were not there a moment earlier. [...] The other package I’ve forgotten. Then again I realize this is a dream and am determined to take my packages back with me, will not let them go. [...]

7) another package involved.
* correct—The smaller watch package was slipped inside of a larger package.

[...] The gorgeous flowers are part of a package of flowers wired to us from a reader in Holland. Neighbor John Bumbalo took delivery of the package yesterday afternoon while I was at the hospital, and brought it over as soon as he saw me drive into the garage. There were so many flowers in the package that I ended up dividing them among three vases I found here at the house. [...]

[...] I favor the first one: that the data refers to the large flat package in which Bill Ward mailed me the artwork to be finished. [...] The package of course contained writing both inside and outside. [...] This may refer to the package in a somewhat distorted manner. [...]

[...] Bill Ward’s artwork arrived in a large rectangular package, but contained no tissue paper and bore no ribbons or string; it was instead sealed with tape. [...] Jane thinks she may have received accurate-enough data from Seth about a package, and constructed perhaps the ribbons herself because that is symbolic of packages. [...]

(“A rectangular package, covered with white tissue paper, and divided in fours by a slim blue ribbon.” Jane had an image here. She saw mentally the four divisions, and had the feeling of blue—of a white package with blue lines or ribbons dividing it.

[...] A rectangular package, covered with white tissue paper, and divided in fours by a slim blue ribbon.

(The package data, concerning a package arriving for Buff after his demise, is correct. C B told Jane a package did arrive; it contained something Buff had ordered for a nephew.

[...] There was a package of something he ordered that came after his death, connected with the initials N A R or the letters. [...]

(Callista could not offer any connections however with N A R and the package in any way. [...]

[...] Jane’s birthday is May 8, but she received the package sometime after this; we located a letter from Jane’s mother dated May 10, in which she discusses mailing the sweater to Jane soon. [...]

(Seth confirms after break that the object was linked to the sweater package. [...]

[...] The ribbon which served as envelope object of course helped wrap a package coming from Jane’s mother. [...]

[...] We think the above block of data is a good example of his attempts to have Jane talk about the delivery of a package to our door. [...]

[...] Last Saturday afternoon she lost a package downtown while shopping. [...] At home that evening she questioned her subconscious with the old pendulum technique, and learned she had left the package in the dressing room of a certain store—one which had already said no package had been found.

(Jane called the store Monday, and was told the package had been found. [...]

[...] Ruburt thinks of the package that his mother sent him, containing a sweater, and the stamp on the package.

(The rest of the test data applies to the Christmas package Jane’s mother sent her early this week. The package was wrapped with twine, contained a blue knitted sweater, etc. [...]

[...] Jane’s mother and a Christmas present also entered the test data, for reasons we do understand; here Seth tells us that Ruburt thinks of the package that his mother sent him.

(“A package.” A package was mailed to F. Fell on February 10. [...] Also, the tape was mailed to F. Fell on February 10 in a separate package.

[...] We did not use twine on the package, incidentally, but did use it on the package containing the tape recording Jane made of some of the poems in the poetry book. [...]

[...] A package. [...]

The package of experience that you can focus upon and make sense of, is indeed composed of many small packages, but the whole package of reality is actually much larger than this. [...]

[...] In what voices and what languages do truths come and in what packages and in what forms? And what the heart knows needs no translation, and the universe does indeed speak without words and so the truths that come to you do indeed, to some extent, come packaged or you would not perceive them. [...] But let you remember that the language and the sound and the noise are packages that have been parceled for you, but for you personally, tailored for you exactly according to your own purposes and needs. [...]

[...] You always recognize one package of psychological reality as “you.” In basic terms you are always arriving by a kind of instantaneous mail into that package, however. [...]

[...] Long pause.) For Boston, a dinner for five, and a package will arrive.

[...] A package did arrive for Pat Norelli, containing her new glasses, however. [...]

(Without going into details her predictions involved a lost package and other pertinent forecasts having to do with delays. [...] Finally when Jane went to the post office just before closing time today to claim the package, it proved to be lost again, this time on the premises. [...]

(Previous to obtaining the package, Jane spent several hours in a strong state of worry and anticipation, and feels this state was a clairvoyant/telepathic attempt to give her conscious self information concerning the package. [...]

[...] The drawing was for a gummed sticker to be applied to a line of packaged cards of various kinds—religious, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, etc., and was for a large old department store in Philadelphia, PA, that goes under the cavalier name of John’s Bargain Store. [...]

[...] Some part of you feels that when such blatant distortions occur, as sometimes occur in the packaging of the books, that far greater invisible lacks of integrity lie buried within. [...]

[...] You cannot expect Prentice to understand the nature of your own idealism, or Ruburt’s, in such a way that Prentice as an entity can apply that idealism to its packaging. [...]

[...] “The initials or the letters seem to be connected with a square item, or package.” [...] This would connect such initials with the fact that the envelope object is a square item, [although not a package]. [...]

The initials or the letters seem to be connected with a square item, or package.

“The package of experience upon which you can focus is indeed composed of many small packages, but the whole package of reality is much larger than this. [...]

Structured beliefs collect and hold your experience, packaging it, so to speak; and so when you look at a given experience that seems like another, you put it into the same structured package, often without examination. [...]
