As a coding conductor… What is coding? Message elements, vibrations, and sensations emanate from a source. Not in language, but in various forms (symbols, diagrams, pictures, etc.). By grasping with the senses and feelings—rather than with words—one can bring about great changes.
Eco is a specialist at “downloading” such codes.
