“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The first part of the session is summarized, the notes being made immediately, at 11:28. The balance of the session is verbatim as indicated. Jane first came through as Seth while sitting at ease on the couch. We had been wondering aloud if the bulk of the material would ever be published verbatim. Seth came through to say quite definitely that the material would be published verbatim—not all of it, literally, but certain large areas of it. He did not give a date or year, etc., and I did not ask.

(Seth told us the Seth book which is now at Jane’s publisher would be published, and that her dream book would also. Jane sent the dream book to another publisher last week. After a pause Seth said the verbatim material would be published also, but gave no hint of a date.

[...] Jane spoke rather rapidly and Bill couldn’t keep up verbatim-wise, but did get down most of the gist of what Seth was saying.

(After break I took verbatim notes for the rest of the session.)

(I did not get the first few sentences down, but most of the following is verbatim.)

To obtain this verbatim record: In the first few sessions Jane and I sat facing each other with the board on our laps, and with a desk close beside me on the right. [...]

[...] But from here on I was able to take notes on most of what she said, so the following is pretty close to a verbatim report:)

[...] I have verbatim notes on this; I asked Seth to speak slowly enough for notes on the test and he agreed. [...]

[...] The following material is verbatim until otherwise noted.)

[...] The following material still concerns tonight’s test, and is verbatim because once again I asked Seth to speak slowly. [...]

[...] What follows is not verbatim, since Jane spoke quite rapidly at times, but is close to it, and the correct meaning of what Jane said is always given. [...]

[...] The pace was so fast I didn’t get it down verbatim.

[...] Taking down someone else’s words, verbatim, is to Ruburt, because of his own creative ability an inferior position.

The one exception here would be taking down verbatim the words of someone who Ruburt was convinced had superior creative ability or knowledge.

[...] I made verbatim notes as we went along. [...]

(There are no verbatim quotes here from Seth, since Jane obtained her information from him in a different way. [...]

[...] They are not all verbatim, however. [...]

(Quotes from Seth that follow, in caps as usual, are not verbatim for the most part, but close approximations. [...]

[...] I took verbatim notes here.)

[...] These 510 sessions, then, are exact copies from the verbatim transcripts I made in my homemade shorthand while Jane spoke for Seth; I added notes and comments while typing the material after each session. [...]

[...] I made a few brief notes, not verbatim except for the names, which Seth spelled out.
