Hi BNofG...
This has been a truly amazing find for me - has anyone any feedback on the seth material and obe in context of parallel worlds?
Ok here's some feedback, just for fun:
I think a good way to grasp the subject of parallel worlds and such (since it's such a tremendous jump from conventional think anyway) is to just go ahead and assume that you and I are Gods - creators of worlds and universes... literally.
And from there, if you can think it, you can create it.
And this is because ultimately it's that simple to create anything and everything. Just "considered it is so" and it is.
So by the very fact that you have considered the possibility of parallel worlds - you got 'em! You could assume that on some level you have created them.
Now, can you experience them from this consciousness that you currently consider yourself to be?
Well that's where oobes can help in a big way (I know you know that, I'm just saying...)
So, anyway, you have the opportunity to merge with other selves in parallel or alternate realities, when you shift or phase into other aspects of Self in other dimensions and planes of existence.
On several occasions while out of body or phased into other worlds, I have noticed that I must be merged with another self that's been living there as a "local" of that realty system. I could tell form various little experiments I've done on this subject.
Like one time I am talking to a girlfriend, and she's asking me if I love her. "Well of course I love you... and I want to marry you and have children with you." It just sort of came out my mouth as I am sitting there on sofa with this pretty little thing in some other world, I know not where. And I was actually saying what I felt at the time. But at the same time I was aware that i was "out of body" with a primary focus in this physical plane.
On a couple of occasions while in other planes of existence, it occurred to me wonder if I had a "past" there, and memory of it. So I considered what I did "yesterday", or some in it's past. And on more than one occasion I remember my "other world" past.
Once I was apparently coming "home" to visit a sweetheart and her family, in a parallel or alternate reality of earth circa turn of the millennium. She lived in a devastated area of the southwest with her family who owned an outpost there. At first, though I seemed to recognize everyone I didn't really know who they were. And then this pretty girl comes over to me and wraps her arms around me and kisses me in front of mom and dad. Then we go off by ourselves away from the canteen they own and we start talking intimately. And I swear, I started wondering if THAT place was my primary focus, or if not, should it be. But definitely, this appeared to be a very real alternate United States, circa 2000.
Anyway from my experiences I'd go with the parallel or alternate realities definitely do exist. And when I experience them first hand, what's happening (I suppose) is that I am merging with an other aspect of Self, a ME that's living there "full time" as it were, like I am living here "full time" with the occasional excursion into parallel or alternate realities.... as feedback goes

I enjoyed "Seth Speaks" a lot (when I read it in 1984). Then in 1987 I read Monroe's 3 books. Then also in 1987 starting having oobes (using Monroe's techniques and stuff) - at first anyway). I tried lots of different techniques and stuff since then and have had some doozies.
