I intend to go into Ruburt’s peculiarities at my leisure, and I will. Nevertheless it is still you, Joseph, with whom I will be concerned for a while. The fact remains that Ruburt’s intuitions have been of fairly high quality. It is true that your particular talents can give variety and reason to many of Ruburt’s ideas. In many cases you could for example accept Ruburt’s basic intuitive impulse, and then make your own changes. For example you could have left your position at a much earlier time and then made your own plans accordingly. When you both are intuitively attracted to the same proposed move then in most cases it would be wise to make it. Because you are so—is the word wobbly?—after your exercises I suggest a short break.

Your own experience with creativity should serve you well as far as this discussion goes. When you paint a picture, my dear egotistical Joseph, you are dealing with a transformation of energy and a transformation of camouflage pattern. There is a moment, a brief but vital moment in such an act of creation, when you are dealing with the underlying vitality of which I have spoken. You are forced because of your earthly physical situation to transform this creative energy into another camouflage pattern. There is nothing else you can do. But for this moment you pluck this vitality from the inner senses, you grab ahold of this fuel with both hands. You have it. You transform it into a somewhat different more evocative new camouflage pattern that is nevertheless more fluent, more fluid, than the usual pattern, and which gives greater freedom and mobility to the basic fuel or vitality itself. You approach a transmigration of planes.

(Break at 11:39. By now both of us were very tired yet reluctant to quit. Jane resumed dictating at 11:50.)
