Now, we shall indeed mention the book Ruburt is reading.

It should be remembered that the intellect, in the light of this book, is as perfect then as any other manifestation of what is termed divine spirit. The intellect has been trained unfortunately to deal almost exclusively with the results of sense data. This does not mean that it cannot and should not do more.

I have given it a whacking many times. Nevertheless I have always maintained its beauty and necessity. I will tell you that in the most important respects, that woman’s book is legitimate. This is her last reincarnation in your terms, and she is making her final contribution in your system. But there are many who will need a more intellectual approach, and I hope we shall supply it.

I will tell you the book, in what Ruburt thinks of as its somewhat inane simplicity, is very profound. Nevertheless for others there are steps that must be followed through, and following these steps through brings the whole personality, including the intellect, to a more balanced understanding, which is my goal. The author, while basically correct, ignores for example the reality of reincarnation; and Ruburt’s protests to the contrary, reincarnation belongs both with metaphysics and psychology, and cannot be ignored.

There are points in that book which we have not yet discussed, for the ground has not been prepared sufficiently. Reincarnation and projection are as real and as difficult for the ego to grasp, as the nature of dreams. You can begin to understand the effect of dreams at least upon your daily life. Reincarnations and projections of which you are not consciously aware have an equal effect, a stronger effect, upon your daily existence.
