[...] Jane doesn’t have much of a scientific vocabulary.”

(Pause, one of many.) With Ruburt’s limited vocabulary, this is rather difficult to explain, but it would be as if the positions of your north and south poles changed constantly while maintaining the same relative distance from each other, and by their change in polarity upsetting the stability (pause) of the planet—except that because of the greater comparative strength (pause) at the poles of the units (gestures, attempts to draw diagrams in the air), a newer stability is almost immediately achieved after each shifting.

[...] And we will give you an idea of the vocabulary used... [...]

[...] We will get you used to the idea of foreign lands and then we will teach you to travel into lands that are really foreign—and we will give you an idea of the vocabulary used—and it will not be as simple as “good morning” and “good evening” or “where can I find a can of beans?”

[...] I couldn’t tell you what that was about, and yet I have an idea … I think Seth wishes I had a better vocabulary for body things.”

(Smile again.) The word is in your vocabulary and Ruburt’s, not mine.

[...] They had songs of great beauty, and a most extensive vocabulary. [...]

That note makes a handy reference for related concepts, for in it I also briefly discussed subatomic “particles”; the components of atoms; molecules; supposed faster-than-light particles (tachyons); Seth’s CU’s, or units of consciousness; his assertion that consciousness can travel faster than light in out-of-body states; Jane’s scientific vocabulary; and Einstein’s special theory of relativity.

The difficulties over the word have to do with Ruburt’s vocabulary. [...]

[...] The scientists have their own vocabulary, which is used to reinforce the exclusive nature of science. [...]

If all men could learn to love, in terms of which I have spoken, then there would be no need for any kind of punishment within your field, and the word would vanish from your vocabulary. [...]

[...] This is more difficult because of Ruburt’s lack of mathematical vocabulary, and the fact that conceptual patterns were given in intuitive mathematical language—not in a precise narrow range at all, and answering deeper questions than those asked. [...]

[...] These personalities will explain the nature of reality to her in vocabulary that will make sense to her. [...]

[...] A child can think coherently before he learns vocabulary — but he cannot impress the physical universe in its terms. [...]

[...] Very often specific meanings are given to certain words, so that you have what amounts to a professional vocabulary. [...]

Because of Ruburt’s limited scientific vocabulary, this is somewhat difficult to explain. [...]

[...] Perhaps I was merely afraid the experience wasn’t clairvoyant, I said, yet I felt our vocabulary was limited in some indefinable way in such cases. [...]

[...] It is useless, therefore, to attempt any description of it through usual vocabulary, for your language primarily allows you to identify physical rather than nonphysical experience.

(To Joel) We have a fine vocabulary. [...]

I remind the reader of a remark Seth made in the 702nd session for Volume 1, when Jane was delivering material for him on electron spin and related concepts: “Ruburt’s vocabulary is not an official scientific one. Nor, for our purposes should it be — for that vocabulary is limiting.” [...]
