[...] But none of this could have been done, or begun, without clearing the debris that had gathered about you both, emotionally and practically. [...]

Ruburt will learn very quickly through such practice. [...] This sort of practice will be most beneficial, and though he may not think so consciously it will build his confidence.

Your idea Joseph was a good one basically, for practice. [...]

(Its very difficult for the practical world—for people who aren’t primarily “artists or creators” to deal with that sort of thing; they don’t know where to place it and ideas alone make them uncomfortable—they aren’t real or unreal according to their way of looking at reality.

[...] I do get glimpses of that condition of inner and outer freedom; just enough to understand some of the many practical benefits that can flow from it. [...]
