They even have a complete record of where, when and what transmissions and teachings He gave. So if you were fortunate to be somewhere/someday and receive a transmission from Him, but didn't know what it was, as long as you know the day, you can still find out what you received.
Hey Asocka, great to see you again. Good piece of information to.

"The direct, hard to understand, subtle field of knowing, the Great Path, is non-conceptual (akalpana), and entirely beyond the grasp of intellectual thought. Divorced from verbal ideation, it is difficult to point out and as difficult to enquire into. It cannot be communicated through words and [therefore] is not within the scope of the neophyte (adikarmika). Nevertheless the path is to be approached through studying scriptures (sutra) of the World-Teacher and following the personal instructions (upadesa) of one's Guru-ji."
