What is necessary is for the reader to closely review Volume 1 before digging into Volume 2. There isn’t any better way to grasp the complex themes of that first book. However, I can help initiate that process by presenting short blocks of material from Seth-Jane and myself. Then I’ll add a few later comments of my own.

“Seth used Session 909 as a bridge between chapters 6 and 7 in Dreams. This means that now the session serves as a connective—a very effective lure, say—between volumes 1 and 2. Indeed, in retrospect it almost seems as though Seth, that ‘energy personality essence,’ planned it that way! And Jane and I look forward with intense interest to the final version of Dreams, for as always this work will be as revealing and educational for us as it will be for anybody else. I thank each reader for his or her patience in accepting the publication of Dreams in two volumes.”

Some of my descriptive passages in Dreams as I deal with Jane’s personal challenges are harrowing; they strike at the very heart of our fears of illness and disability, and even death, leading us to consciously face those possibilities while at the same time they perfectly mirror our equally profound inner needs and drives. In Dreams I’m presenting the account of Jane’s struggles with her “physical symptoms” in the clearest light I can manage. I’m also demanding the very best insight, an excellence of understanding, from each reader, even though it may not be easy to summon those qualities. But in my opinion they’re vital for understanding what the Seth material is all about.
