Dictation. In his own mind, Ruburt calls these ideas, taken together, “The New Way.”

In other words, these concepts, so natural to all of creation, have not been practiced by humanity in anything like their pure form. To that extent they do indeed represent a new way. They run directly counter to much of your official knowledge and contemporary thought as far as the mainstream of world culture is concerned.

Jake also represented any beliefs of your own dealing with work in general that can carry you so far and no further. You correctly interpreted the affair between Ruburt and his mother — an excellent omen, by the way.
