Priestley’s concept here becomes more limiting than he realized. At this point Dunne overtakes him precisely where he and Dunne disagree. For once having hypothesized times one, two and three, Dunne continues onward as is the case, and Priestley simply stops here in this particular respect.
Having read Priestley’s ideas about Dunne, Ruburt now wonders if I am not a future self of his own, according to Dunne’s ideas; that is, if I am not one of those future selves of which Dunne speaks, or if I am not consciousness number two, or three even, of Priestley’s concept.
Ruburt has not been reading Dunne, incidentally, but Priestley’s interpretation of Dunne, which is something else again, but fairly accurate.
In concept, again on this particular point, Dunne went further. But in doing so he ended up in a frenzy, losing sight of where he was. And no wonder. It is simply because I am outside of these times that I can see through them more clearly, and there is no particular reason why I should be considered wiser in this respect than they. I am simply in a better position to observe. If Dunne were able to write another book now, on his time theories, he would be able to correct several of his well-intentioned errors.
[...] Our friend Dunne was quite correct here.
[...] Some will not, and this is where, again, our friends Priestley and Dunne fall short.
[...] These probabilities do occur somewhere, but they will occur to a self that Priestley nor Dunne ever imagined—a self who exists simultaneously with any given individual, and who is a part of him; but a self that he will never know while he is within your particular system.
[...] Now this dimension exists in a reality which Priestley nor Dunne even began to examine.
[...] However, these selves are not limited as is the ego to one main field of perception only, in the manner which Dunne believes. Dunne does leave intervening areas between dimensions which may be perceived by an observer from a neighboring dimension, but all in all his serial selves are to some large degree prisoners of those dimensions in which they exist.
My greeting to Marleno, and my sympathy to Ruburt as he struggles to plow through his Dunne.
[...] Jane has obtained three of Dunne’s book through the state library at Albany, and we are in the midst of reading them.)
[...] If you are thinking in terms of Dunne’s theories, then start out with this moment point as it is seen in time one by self one.
