“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] Just as we’re ready to begin some sort of working activity, Wade Alexander visited. [...] Afterward Jane and I agreed that his visit was hardly accidental. [...] I told Jane his decision to visit might save us a lot of time later. [...]

It is possible to pick the places you will visit. Whether or not you can achieve such purposeful visits at this time, I do not know. [...] You are further along than even I had imagined, and so it is possible that such purposeful visits are within your abilities now. [...]

(“Is it possible to pick the places I will visit?”)

In such experiments, when you attempt purposeful visits, then choose of course people with whom you are familiar and in rapport, so that if you materialize fully they will recognize you as a friend, and follow whatever instructions you are able to give them. [...]

[...] However, an accurate description of a foreign city which you have never visited before, would be of course invaluable.

[...] The longer visit, with the cheesecake woman, was meant to give you a closer look at the kind of person who gives lectures about us, and so forth—so she was symbolic of others. The young girl was helped by her visit here, and symbolizes many others who are helped by the books alone.

These were interruptions, and because of your attitudes you thought of them as troublesome interruptions: surely you would have sailed through your work otherwise, or performed chores that you wanted to accomplish; and so because you still do not really understand the effectiveness of Framework 2, those visits added to your sense of concern and hassles with time. [...]

Neither of you really, however, took full advantage of the reassurances those visits were intended to give each of you. [...]

[...] A visit to a third or second floor. [...]

(Pat is due to visit us briefly on her way to her home in Pittsburgh, PA, on Saturday, April 15. [...]

[...] Pat did visit us on the 15th, and confirmed much of Seth’s data given here. [...]

(Jeff Karder, Jane’s doctor, visited her this morning. [...]

[...] Jane took the visit well indeed this morning, and I congratulate her for doing so. [...]

I am aware of Karder’s visit, and your own conversations about Ruburt’s walking, and so forth — and I intend to answer your questions, but I wanted to give you the preceding material as a necessary preliminary. [...]

I can say that overall I agree with your decisions, and with Ruburt’s interpretation of Karder’s visit. [...]

[...] When Bill visited us early this evening I thought of using the clipping as object.

[...] Jane visited with Marian one morning early last week, and for the next day or two remarked that she felt quite like Marian’s description of her own symptoms. [...]

[...] Certainly the pressure applied to Bill Macdonnel by three police visits or calls, in an effort to get him to remove the painting from the window. [...]

[...] Bill told Jane and me this on his visit earlier this evening, although we had heard this from other friends several days ago.

(On Sunday afternoon and evening we were visited by Andrija Puharich and Joyce Petschek. [...] Tonight I asked that Seth at least comment upon the visit, since I had the feeling it marked a turning point for us as far as our attitudes went; about meeting others, etc.

[...] I was curious after the call to see how we’d react to the visit.

I have little to say otherwise, except that your own attitudes have changed for the better, for you took your strengths for granted, for once (re AP’s visit), and did not concentrate upon those areas that you once felt were so shameful. [...]

While they were obviously noticeable, they were an unimportant issue in the visit—an important footnote in Andrija’s experience—but not a part of the main page or message, if you understand me.

[...] From March 24 to April 2, Jane and I received a total of 21 visits from 16 different individuals. [...] Some of the visits lasted for hours and left Jane very tired.

The others did not come for the same reason, although your illness was the cause of their visits. [...]

[...] While visiting us on the second day of my illness, John said that events transpiring within the drug firm he represents, Searle, appear to bear out predictions made by Seth some time ago. [...]

[...] On file I have a complete record of the 21 visits Jane and I received.

[...] They began before the visit, you remember. Your visit served as a check to Midge, for though you were friendly she saw that she could only go so far. [...]

The visit however was for the best in the overall. [...]

[...] The new personality, in its small astral body, does visit with other portions of the entire identity. [...]

It is often practical that entities or their various personalities visit one plane before another. This does not mean that one plane must necessarily be visited before another. … You could say also that an entity visits all planes simultaneously, as it is possible for you to visit one particular state, county and city at one time. Also, you might visit the state of sorrow and joy almost simultaneously and experience both emotions in heightened form because of the almost immediate contrast. [...]

[...] At such times it is very possible for your present personalities to be visited by others such as myself, but only on the bidding of the entity.

[...] … When science progresses on various planes, then such visitations become less accidental and more planned. [...]

(Friday evening Jane and I were visited by a psychologist [Ed Ostrander] from Cornell, after an exchange of letters over a period of several months. [...] It wasn’t until the next day that we realized the visit had upset us more than we knew, because of the various connotations aroused. [...]

[...] It fit in so well with the visit last Friday evening, concerning authority versus our interests, that I asked if Seth would comment on both the visit and that four-year-old session this evening.)

(Wade Alexander and his son Brian visited us for 3/4 of an hour at supper time. [...] The visit was very pleasant but it disrupted our schedule enough so that we ate an hour later than usual. [...]

[...] Sometimes it seems that you are bothered by visitors when you do not want them, but those visitors are also a part of that spontaneous order, whether or not at any given time you recognize the purpose of such a visit, or its place in your lives. [...]

Finally, then: I was working on this introduction late in October 2002 when Laurel and I were visited by five members of the Houston, Texas, Seth group: Winter Calvert, Theresa Smith, Jim and Debbie Serra, and Yvette Silva. I had corresponded with a few members of the group, and Jim and his wife had visited me some time ago. [...] Richie had also visited Laurel and me twice last summer with Mary Dillman from his new residence in Westport, Connecticut.

Shortly before they were to leave Yale, Jim Serra had e-mailed Laurel and me from New Haven to confirm his and his friends’ visit. The members also had plans for visits in upper New York State and in Maine before heading back to Texas. [...]

[...] The youngest, John, who visited his parents occasionally, was attracted by the ideas in Jane’s work. [...] When he crossed the road to visit I would encourage him to sing a bit for us a cappella. [...]

[...] I sometimes think I’m almost cowardly about visiting it, as though I fear my emotions could still erupt if I weren’t careful. [...] And today my feelings about visiting 458 with our guests were also fresh in my psyche.

In the same way, others can visit your planet with the same results. [...] Theoretically, you can visit them with some vast improvements in your technology, but great amounts of time would be involved. Others have visited your own planet in that particular fashion. [...] Some intelligent beings have visited your planet, finding not the world you know but a probable one.⁴ There are always feedbacks between probable systems. [...]

[...] You may physically visit the “very same planet” on which they reside, but to you the planet will appear barren, or not able to support life.

(10:09.) If Ruburt had tried to visit the woman by plane he would have followed the curve of the earth, but in those terms the energy went through in the “straightest” way.⁷

[...] You can visit other planets only in your present (underlined). [...]

[...] His mother visited chiropractors, osteopaths, and he knows it. This gives rise to a suggestibility that should be taken into consideration in any visits of his own.

[...] He is afraid, literally, walking the streets of Saratoga, sneaking in and out when he visits. [...]

(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. [...] 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. [...]

[...] Jane did visit the art shop where I buy my paints. [...]

[...] There are links with the Bernards and transportation also of course, since they visited us over the weekend from North Carolina, then headed for a TV program in Philadelphia. [...]

The second island says: “Suppose my spirit visits your island for a while, to discover what it is like to possess palm trees, a few birds, and a tranquil shore. [...]

The spirit of the first island visits the second one, and finds itself amazed. [...]

In the meantime, the spirit of that volcanic island is visiting the first island, and finds itself enchanted by the still waters that lap against the shore, the gentle birds, and the few palm trees. [...]

So the spirit of Island Four journeys to that other reality, where all kinds of life swarm over shore and mountain, and the spirit of the third island visits a world of such peace that all motion seems stilled.

(Intrigued by giving such different and difficult material, Jane checked a few reference books before Pat Norelli’s Thanksgiving visit from Boston. [...]

[...] People often keep track of changes in hometowns that they may not have visited for twenty years except in the dream state, when they familiarize themselves with the alterations that have happened, visit beloved streets and houses, or view old classmates.

[...] We have seldom visited Sayre in recent years. [...]

(This Saturday evening we’re to be visited by Scott and Helen Nearing, who are spending the day at programs for a homecoming festival at Mansfield.

[...] She’s written her own account of the event, so I’ll just note here that at the end of the visit, she spontaneously felt like standing up and walking normally—an impulse that she hasn’t been aware of for a number of years, but is so normal to most people.)

With the interview, Saturday’s planned visit, and even with the connection with Eleanor, you both decided to be a bit more open in that regard. [...]
