“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The first part of this session was held for John Pitre, who telephoned Jane about a week ago from Franklin, LA, on behalf of his ill wife, Peggy.

She does indeed sense it, and she is not afraid. (Pause; one of many.) There seems to be some other important event that will intervene or happen first. (Eyes closed; Jane gestured as though attempting to understand.) I believe to someone else beside the man and his wife—the man, or his wife.

We must be very careful here. The event may involve the wife’s mother…. (See page 185. Pause.) There is no basic contradiction between the man’s ideas and those orthodox ones followed by his wife. The difference is only an apparent one. A difference of interpretation. She has clothed a basic idea of reality in certain garments, and he has chosen other garments. Both are necessarily distortive, but beneath both is the same reality.

I will not give him any date, or approximate date, for his wife’s death. The knowledge would not be to his advantage, nor in some ways would it be to her advantage, for his attitude toward her would change.

The other event of which I spoke will occur first, but this does not mean that the wife’s death will immediately follow. She is indeed receiving instruction when she is in the dream state, and she has already on several occasions had a preview of things to come.

There is still determination and vitality on the wife’s part however in regard to this life. Still strongly on my part the feeling that she waits for some event, or that some large event will occur, and that she will not die before it happens.

Now. I believe that the wife’s mother will die first, but I do not want this sent to the son-in-law. If it is not the mother, then the aunt. A woman very close to the wife, I believe, now, will die before her and be waiting for her.

(Pause, one of many here.) This woman has made that decision. The woman is one for whom the wife feels strong emotional attachment. Since I am not sure which of the two women, the mother or aunt, is involved, this information from my statement to you, should remain private. The earlier data mentioning an event only may be sent.

Now. For your private information, middle or late March… I do not know whether this is the woman’s death (open eyes, pointing at me), but it is an event involving death of a woman (gestures) close to the wife, you see?

(Pause)… Or a severe and rather sudden illness or accident. This is not Ruburt’s overcaution (as we had speculated at break). The picture is not clear. If this is the wife’s death, then it is caused by something other than this long lingering illness of hers. A sudden attack of another sort, or accident.
