Time and Place: 10:30 A. M. Dayton Time. ..., La.

TEXT

GC: You will have before you the mental, physical and spiritual condition, and environments of same, of [136], ..., La. Give in detail recent mental condition, causes, events last 2 months, correlate with trouble, analyze same and give a definite cure. You will please give this in a manner understandable to the mind of this individual.
EC: Yes, we have the body here, and those conditions of the mental, physical and spiritual of the body, with the environments of same, and in this, while we find the body physically very good, little suggestion to give concerning same, other than that nature applied through its action with a normal balanced individual.
As to the mental status of the individual, these we see weighted by much of the surrounding influences, in many ways and manners, and have to do with other individuals than of self, and with the training of the mental forces, the mental, moral and physical urge, the whole of the earthly urge, with the spiritual urges, have brought, do bring about many of the conflicting emotions through which the mental has been and is passing at the present time, and has passed in the last two to three months. Never will the body succeed in gaining its own mental equilibrium doing any condition or any action as a spite, or disregarding self's conviction in any condition pertaining to self's future, either in mental or physical relation.
As then for the definite conclusion and cure for the condition, the body mentally, physically, spiritually, should enter in that relation with its Creator, as is reached through that injunction, first of all, "May the words of my mouth, the meditations of my heart, be acceptable in Thy sight, my Lord, my Strength, my Redeemer", and when the individual, through its relation to self and Creator, has established that One-ness wherein the inner self or spirit beareth witness with His spirit, that the answer comes from within, then may the individual find that peace, that comfort, that satisfaction of knowing that the Way, the Truth, the Light, will guide, guard and direct the pathway in which the entity should follow, in mind, heart, soul and body, and without this foundation, there is no peace in self, in mind, in body. No answering chord of that "Well done", for upon such foundation alone can the hope, the life, the home be builded in earthly domain, or in mental strain, or in the spiritual elements necessary to bring that good that comes with the injunction as has ever been given, "Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto thee." In Him is Life, and Being, and without that satisfaction of being on the Lord's side, never can one reach that injunction, "No one can be against you when on the Lord's side."
Then let the entity in heart seek that way, and will find Him not far off. "Draw nigh unto Him and He will draw nigh unto thee."
We have finished.
