He (Ruburt) was bound and determined to explore the nature of reality.1 … He wanted to protect himself until he had enough knowledge to know what he was doing. He fears for the gullibility of people, and is rightly appalled at their superstitions — as you are, Joseph (as Seth calls me). Indeed, as Ruburt became aware of the little that is known, he wondered at his own daring. There was no one he could turn to for instruction. I could have helped him further, but I was [part of what he was investigating] …

(Seth continued:) He also began to see two poles in society one highly conventional and closed, in which he would appear as a charlatan; and another, yearning but gullible, willing to believe anything if only it offered hope, in which his activities would be misinterpreted, and to him [would be] fraudulent … There was a middle ground that he would have to make for himself … to make a bridge to those intellectuals who doubted, and yet maintain some freedom and spontaneity in order to reach those at the other end. This required manipulations most difficult for any personality, and a constant system of checks and balances.
