Not sure if the question was rhetorical or not. I believe such is impossible: in and of themselves, words can't be used to remove the veil. Words are messengers. They represent, or point to; they convey information, feeling, concept, etc., but they are not the feeling/perception/experience/memory themselves.
27.4 Perceptions are not the same as sound vibration complexes.
Words can trigger, awaken, or impart meaning from one entity to another, but it is to the recipient to interpret and use that which the word-symbol represents to discover and meet the self, to do work in consciousness, or to generate understanding.
More often than not words likely obscure the truth, being treated suchly that they become opaque to that which they seek to represent.
But even at their most potent and cogent formulation, I agree with you completely that words cannot directly remove the veil or return an entity's vision to oneness.
Ra echoes that understanding here:
17.2 We cannot offer shortcuts to enlightenment. Enlightenment is of the moment, is an opening to intelligent infinity. It can only be accomplished by the self, for the self. Another self cannot teach/learn enlightenment, but only teach/learn information, inspiration, or a sharing of love, of mystery, of the unknown that makes the other-self reach out and begin the seeking process that ends in a moment, but who can know when an entity will open the gate to the present?
It's a fascinating topic to consider our dance with these symbols. Their full nature and impact on our experience probably won't become clear until we've discarded them in favor of direct mind-to-mind communication.
