Ruburt’s father, to Ruburt, meant laxness, relaxation to the extreme, without drive or fire, responsibility or control. Ruburt’s mother meant will, drive, power, for she had power over the household and over Ruburt. But that power went nowhere, for Ruburt’s father was physically free while his mother was not. Ruburt thought he had to make a choice (louder). If will and power meant relative immobility but purpose—and purpose was what he had—then in the past he chose that above what he thought of as laxness, relaxation, and physical freedom that might mean frittering away ability, a relaxation in which nothing was accomplished.
His parents represented two extremes. His mother represented will untempered by spontaneity or relaxation, quite frankly a will for power over others. She made other people supply her wants, and was a despot. She was filled with energy however, and purpose.

For the week, take this session and the remarks given, then the point of power as given in my book, done by each of you daily without fail. Ruburt is to read more of my book this week. The understanding from this session will be of great benefit. I bid you then a fond good evening.
(10:40 PM. “Thank you, Seth. Good night.” As I type this the next evening—while class is in progress—Jane is enjoying another lengthy relaxation.... Both of us have done the point of power. Loren and Dick are my young brothers.)
