About The Book Set

SETH SPEAKS

The Eternal Validity Of The Soul

Synopsis

One of the most powerful of the Seth Books, this essential guide to conscious living clearly and powerfully articulates the furthest reaches of human potential, and the concept that we all create our own reality according to our individual beliefs. Having withstood the test of time, it is still considered one of the most dynamic and brilliant maps of inner reality.

Chapter 1 excerpt

I DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL BODY,

YET I AM WRITING THIS BOOK


You have heard of ghost hunters. I can quite literally be called a ghost writer, though I do not approve of the term ''ghost.'' It is true that I am usually not seen in physical terms. I do not like the word ''spirit,'' either; and yet if your definition of that word implies the idea of a personality without a physical body, then I would have to agree that the description fits me.

I address an unseen audience. However, I know that my readers exist, and therefore I shall ask each of them, now, to grant me the same Privilege.

I write this book through the auspices of a woman of whom I have become quite fond. To others it seems strange that I address her as ''Ruburt,'' and ''him,'' but the fact is that I have known her in other times and places, by other names. She has been both a man and a woman, and the entire identity who has lived these separate lives can be designated by the name of Ruburt.

Names are not important, however. My name is Seth. Names are simply designations, symbols; and yet since you must use them, I shall also. I write this book with the cooperation of Ruburt, who speaks the words for me. In this life Ruburt is called Jane, and her husband, Robert Butts, takes down the words that Jane speaks. I call him Joseph.

My readers may suppose that they are physical creatures, bound within physical bodies, imprisoned within bone, flesh, and skin. If you believe that your existence is dependent upon this corporeal image, then you feel in danger of extinction, for no physical form lasts, and no body, however beautiful in youth, retains the same vigor and enchantment in old age. If you identify with your own youth, or beauty, or intellect, or accomplishments, then there is the constant gnawing knowledge that these attributes can and will vanish.

I am writing this book to assure you that this is not the case. Basically you are no more of a physical being than I am, and I have donned and discarded more bodies than I care to tell. Personalities who do not exist do not write books. I am quite independent of a physical image, and so are you.

THE NATURE OF PERSONAL REALITY

Synopsis

In this perennial bestseller, Seth challenges our assumptions about the nature of reality. He explains how the conscious mind directs unconscious activity and has at its command all the powers of the inner self. Included are excellent exercises for applying these theories to any life situation.

An excerpt from the book

I

'm proud to publish this book under my own name, though I don't fully understand the mechanics of its production or the nature of the personality I assume in delivering it. I had no conscious work to do on the book at all. I simply went into trance twice a week, spoke in a ''mediumistic'' capacity for Seth, or as Seth, and dictated the words to my husband, Robert Butts, who wrote them down.

I consider the book ''mine'' in that I don't believe it could have been written without me and my particular abilities. On the other hand, I realize that far more is involved. I had to read the manuscript to find out what was in it, for example; and to that extent the book doesn't seem mine. But what does that mean?

My idea briefly is this: Our usual orientation is focused pretty exclusively in what we think of as the ''real'' world, but there are many realities. By shifting our consciousness, we can glimpse these alternate realities, and all of them are the appearance that Reality takes under certain conditions. I don't believe that we can necessarily describe one in terms of another.

For years I've been confused, trying to define Seth in the usual trueand-false world of facts. There he's accepted as an independent spirit — a spirit guide by those with spiritualistic beliefs — or as some displaced portion of my own personality by the scientific community

DREAMS

EVOLUTION AND VALUE FULFILLMENT

Synopsis

Taken from the introductory.

August 12, 1982. Originally I'd planned to write the standard kind of introduction for Dreams, ''Evolution,'' and Value Fulfillment. However, as I became involved in describing the complicated, emotionally charged series of events surrounding the hospitalization earlier this year of my wife, Jane Roberts, the material automatically began organizing itself into a series of dated essays. I was more than happy to follow this intuition from my creative self, for it answered many questions I'd started to consciously worry about.

THE INDIVIDUAL AND THE NATURE OF MASS EVENTS

Synopsis

Taken from the introduction

County would have been used to house refugees. Many spectacular national events have happened, of course, since our first sessions took place late in 1963, but Seth seldom mentioned such issues, and then only in answer to our own questions. In this current book, however, he discusses in depth how our private realities merge into mass experience. For that reason he examines the public arena, and devotes a good deal of material to Three Mile Island and to the Jonestown mass suicides as well. Both situations occurred as Seth was dictating this book, and while they are contemporary, both cases are classic in their implications.

''You form the camouflage world or appearances with the same part of you that breathes.'' Session 23, p.167 , The Early Sessions, Book 1 ''The physical world that you recognize is made up of invisible patterns. These patterns are ''plastic,'' in that while they exist, their final form is a matter of probabilities directed by consciousness.

Your senses perceive these patterns in their own ways.'' Session 803, p.29 , The
