“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

There is a point I want to make, however. Now in my book, my own book, there are two chapters in particular. One is called “Death Conditions in Life”’ and in it I make several points that will somewhat answer your questions. First of all, when you sleep, in your terms, you are as dead as you will ever be. You are operating in out-of-body conditions. You are experiencing other dimensions of reality. You are quite as busy as you are in your daily life but because you do not remember in the morning, it seems to you that you are largely unconscious. In this state, therefore, you are learning. You have every opportunity to study, to look upon your past lives, in your terms, and benefit from them.

(To Sue.) There was not a close—this is a PS to a PS—not a close, but a definite relationship between us in the past and it is for that reason that you were brought to Ruburt, to the classes. And it was because you knew me in one particular past life and had empathy toward me then that you are so aware of me in the dream state.
