I always enjoy these pre-discussions. Ruburt’s character analysis never ceases to amaze me. My welcome to Philip. My memory fortunately is much better than Ruburt’s.

A V comes to mind. Whether this is the person directly involved, or a person causing the difficulty I do not know. Ruburt is so preciously guarding me, and so afraid that what I say may not prove true at all, that he does a beautiful job of blocking me when he gets the chance.

Incidentally, I always—at least recently—preferred a good cigar, and if Ruburt ever follows my advice and gives up cigarettes, a good cigar would suit my fancy.

You have read, or Ruburt has read, a scientific article having to do with biological, electrical, or magnetic man. Hogwash. Some validity definitely, but the conclusions drawn are hogwash. Nevertheless, energy enters your plane which is not materialized into mass, and I am energy which is not transformed into mass.

My connection with you is obvious from our previous discussions. Ruburt and I were once intimately connected, being offshoots so to speak of the same entity. We developed according to our own abilities. I am not his subconscious nor is he mine.

Man will learn yet that the outer universe can only be discovered in terms of inner knowledge. You have an acquaintance, from Ruburt I believe the name is Gallagher, who should prove a good influence. You have not known her before. However, her subconscious abilities are well developed.

I certainly admire your enthusiastic discussions, and upon some occasion I will go into matters that are rather close to Ruburt, as far as the innate ability that is not being utilized to full degree by the females in general. However, now I am still concerned with matter.

I am going to give you another short session. Incidentally Joseph, you were correct: I have been teaching Ruburt to feel concepts, rather than delivering them to him word by word, even though that is how he must deliver them to you.

I have been giving you the same sort of training. However this takes more out of Ruburt, since he must then, with my help, translate direct experience-concepts into a succession of meaningful words.
