“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] After the experiment was over, Jane opened the envelopes containing the test object; then I went back to the studio, and from the hidden section I picked out the page from which the object had been torn. It turned out to be pages 11—12 of Section One of the Times for Sunday, November 6, 1966.

Refer to the illustrated section for reproductions of the test item and the page from which it was torn. Both sides of the test item contained portions of advertisements that were tied in with election day, yet the words “Election Day” didn’t appear on the object itself at all—only on the whole newspaper page that had lain on a high shelf of Rob’s studio bookcase.

The date of the paper was at the top of the page, of course. [...] These same models are also the figures Seth mentions, and as you can see from the photograph of the page, the women’s faces give a skull-like impression, with their hair pulled back. [...]

Please note that in a few instances, page numbers are mentioned in the text for the purpose of cross-referencing material. These page numbers apply only to the page numbers in the trade paperback version.

Now even when Jane delivers an answer via Seth that may be five typewritten pages long, she never repeats herself, loses track of what she is saying, uses the words “uh,” “er,” etc., or changes in any way what she had said. [...]

(A note: as of now my original single and/or double spaced typewritten record of the Seth material is 4,636 pages long. Sessions 449 and 450 take up the last 18 pages— hence Roger’s references to numbers in the 4,000 category.)

[...] See the 46th session, page 30.

Pretend that your life’s experience is a page of a book that you write, read, and experience from top to bottom, left to right, sentence by sentence, paragraph by paragraph. [...] But other quite as legitimate “yous” may write, read, and experience the same page backwards, or read each letter downward and back up again, as you would a column of figures. [...] Still another, vaster you might be aware of all the different methods of experiencing that particular page, which is your life as you understand it.

(Long pause.) You read yourselves from the top of the page to the bottom, or from what you think of as the beginning to the end. [...]
