Your Sumari statement. This is, in English, the memory of a covenant—and that should be the word in Ruburt’s first line, instead of regulations.

It is indeed an ancient covenant. It is a translation of many manuscripts that have appeared and disappeared throughout the ages. In your terms the initial statement was a physical reminder of a covenant already made before spirit was made flesh.

It was because of this that you decided beforehand on the development of the sessions. There are rites (spelled) that were used in various civilizations to stand as ceremonial reminders of this covenant. The Incas knew some of these. Christ knew them, but they were thrown away by his followers. The Hebrews knew but distorted the information. The Lumanians knew, but tried to override the body.

Now the covenants are appearing again. No man can be a fanatic who truly follows this covenant, for the soul nor the body is exploited for the seeming benefit of the others. The covenant is written in your genes.

(“How could I write this covenant in Sumari when I didn’t know what I was writing? I’ve wondered about this before. It’s so easy, yet I couldn’t do it in English.”)

—yet the question itself limits the answer I can give you. It does not have to be an either-or proposition, for example. There is no contradiction between the two alternatives you gave me. The covenant exists quite vitally within the depths of your being.

(Humorously:) Truth often appears hidden in the most exquisite of nonsense. It often disappears in the most weighty of tomes. It is not an imaginary covenant, yet with the aid of the imagination you can approach what it is.
