There were several such civilizations, some mainly agriculturally oriented, and in those technology was applied, but generally only for that purpose—to increase agricultural yield. Some were religiously oriented. Some were socially oriented, enjoying a kind of comradeship that would find, for example, television’s impersonal communications a mockery of the give-and-take that they enjoyed in personal contacts.

In a way mental organization itself was different—psychic priorities, if you prefer. Religious ideas of course held their own sway then as they do now. The earth was felt to be a more lively participator, it was personified. Some of this is impossible to explain. People felt that the sun and the moon would be offended if electric lights were used, for example, that in retaliation they might refuse to shine.

The poles at one time were reversed. The earth has formed and reformed and reformed. The inner psychic organizations always determine the kind of challenges and civilizations that emerge. There have been civilizations devoted mainly to art, in which all other endeavors were considered subsidiary, and the quality of workmanship was everything, no matter what the product. Mass production was inconceivable, because the originality of each piece of art, or furniture, or bowl, held its value in that manner, and the idea of producing a copy of anything would have been considered ludicrous, or considered an act without reason.

If you could see the body with x-ray eyes, or could perceive its activity, you would observe an almost constant reactivation and revitalization of all those parts devoted to motion and locomotion—increased circulation—precisely the amount required: not too much or too little, and overall adjustments, so that all parts of the body are prepared and exercised, so that the final stages of the pattern will then easily seem to fall into place because of the work being done now.

Someday you may want to leave money to insure that our books continue to be printed after your deaths. If Ruburt seriously gives seminars, you may want more room, or a different kind of establishment. A vacation. There have been many expectations held in abeyance because you did not feel sure that Ruburt would recover, so your mental attitudes will change.

I want to emphasize that Framework 2 keeps track of connections beyond your conscious knowledge, and can make computations in the twinkling of an eye. I would also I like him to give suggestions before sleep that in one way or another during the dream state your knowledge of Framework 2 will be increased. That is the end of our session. You can expect further improvements with Ruburt. My heartiest regards and a fond good evening.
