Ruburt would not be familiar with a good many of the words and phrases used, even if translation from the original languages was made. There is a difference even in some basic concepts. To maintain any purity of translation, training in different kinds of inner perception would be necessary. Some of these languages dealt with pictures rather than words. In some the symbols had multidimensional meanings. To deliver such information through Ruburt would be an immense task, but it is possible. Oftentimes words were hidden within pictures, and pictures within words. We speak of manuscripts, yet most of these were not written down.

To a large extent the methods of communication may vary. A personality based within physical reality, between lives for example, would find entry in many ways easier.

Using Ruburt’s mechanism is of great help here also. At times I see the room and the people as he, or rather his perceptive mechanisms, do.
