“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At 8:10 our cat Willy behaved in a most peculiar fashion. I was working in the middle room of our apartment; my studio is thus on my left, the living room on my right. Willy was sleeping in the closet. All was quiet when suddenly Willy burst out of the closet in a mad scramble, his nails sliding on the bare floor. His ears were back, his hackles up. Looking back into the empty studio, he raced into the living room, jumped up on a bookcase beneath a window and hid behind a curtain.

(Jane was reading in the living room, and Willy startled her. Both of us then watched him begin to very cautiously stalk back through the apartment toward the studio. Of course none of us saw anything. The studio was dark. Yet Willy spent at least five minutes making a careful survey of the studio; he remained in a very jumpy mood until just before the session began.

(Break at 9:26. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her delivery was very deliberate and quite slow. Willy lay sleeping now on the divan. Jane said she thought Seth would say something to the effect that on this plane we use ideas for protection from a true reality that might be too much for us to handle. Her voice was normal when she resumed at 9:32.)

(End at 11:13. Jane was dissociated as usual. It had been a very peaceful session. Jane also said she was not now as tired as when the session began. And Willy slept through it all, on the divan.)
