TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you members of the healing group, present in this room, who seek counsel and guidance that they may better carry on His work. You will answer the questions which they will ask.
2. EC: Yes, we have those gathered here, as members of a healing group.
3. In carrying on, each should with joy give themselves in prayer, meditation, that His ways may become their ways, His mind, His will their mind, their will, that others may be constrained to glorify Him in their minds, their bodies.
4. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Please give new affirmation.
   (A) FATHER, THY ALL HEALING POWER IS MANIFESTED IN LIFE. GIVE THOU THE AWAKENING THAT THIS POWER MAY BE MANIFEST MORE AND MORE IN ME, IN MY LIFE DAY BY DAY.
6. (Q) Please give affirmation for next two weeks.
   (A) MAY THAT STRENGTH AS WAS MANIFEST IN THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE CHRIST LIFE BE SO MAGNIFIED IN ME AS TO MAKE EVERY ATOM OF MY BODY CONSCIOUS OF HIS PRESENCE WORKING IN AND THROUGH ME, BRINGING THAT TO PASS AS HE SEES I HAVE NEED OF NOW.
7. (Q) Please give affirmation for next two weeks.
   (A) MAY THE ABUNDANCE OF SUPPLY IN THE CHRIST LIFE BE SO MAGNIFIED IN MY OWN AS TO BRING THOSE CONDITIONS IN MY OWN EXPERIENCE THAT WERE BROUGHT TO OTHERS IN THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS OF HIS PRESENCE IN THEIR LIVES, KNOWING THAT IN THE FATHER THE ABUNDANCE OF LIFE BRINGS HEALING IN MY OWN LIFE.
8. (Q) [993]: Please interpret and expand on the dream I had this morning around five o'clock.
   (A) In those visions that came in this period, as those forces were manifest in the lives of the individuals that came to know the activating forces in their lives, so may we - as we magnify through the Christ Consciousness - bring in our own experience that which will lighten the way; even though shadows from those conditions that are of a secular nature overshadow many activities in others.
9. (Q) Please interpret and expand on the dream I had last week regarding the visit of the priest, and the message he came to bring.
   (A) There we find the experience rather of turning back, or - as we may literally interpret - Life is One. In the vision and the experience of the body-mind, that experienced the presenting of the lessons, in the interpreting of those spiritual forces manifested by the material activities of a finite body in a material world, as in the present, in every material act there must be seen that spiritual ideal which prompted same, that there be no misunderstandings, no incomprehensibility in the experience of bringing to self the consciousness that all life and light must have its foundations in Him. As these are presented from time to time there may come the closer knowledge of the walks with Him that guides, leads, directs those that seek to do His biddings day by day.
10. (Q) [560]: What is the significance of the experience during my morning meditation, in which I was asked my name 3 times, and after each I answered [560] very emphatically, the 3rd time so emphatically that it was heard by someone in the room. To whom was I talking?
    (A) As there have oft been the experience of individuals being called by the mentors, or those guards of the various forces as manifest in the material world, so may the call come to one who has set self in body-mind to serve, that is called to service. So, in the experience, the body-con- sciousness was called by Him as would guide, direct, who is the way, the light, that leads to the proper conception of relationships in the various elements and elementals of life itself. A call from Him, who called as "Martha, know ye not she hath chosen the better part?"
11. (Q) [341]: Will you please explain and tell me what is signified by the vibratory sensations which I experience from time to time, especially while in church? Should I make any conscious effort to control or regulate these sensations?
    (A) As there has been given as respecting the entity's development, the entity's activities in various phases or periods of experience being in association with, endowed with, the power of control over those elements or attributes of mental and physical conditions at variance with the life-giving forces in a body; hence the associations bring to the inner consciousness the associations of certain elements or vibrations that make for attunement with conditions, or experiences within self that have found expression in being given out to others. So, when one is so attuned, so endowed, so in accord with those elements, the VIBRATIONS - or those conditions that arise within self - are as the calling of magnet to the steel, calling those kindredships that are attracted by the spirit answering to spirit. As to the control, rather be controlled by that which will enter in THROUGH this association, that there may be received that as the Lord will; for He hast called thee to service. Call thou thy brethren.
12. (Q) If during the healing meditations the name of an individual starts a distinct type of vibration, should one attempt to maintain this vibratory sensation during the whole of the meditation for that particular patient, or should there be some attempt made to raise such a sensation to a higher, as the backward and forward to the circular?
    (A) Raise same to the circular; for, as has been given, this becomes more of the universal type of transmission to those that would become sensitive to those vibrations being sent out.
13. (Q) What vibratory sensation might one expect to follow the circular sensation?
    (A) As of passing into the presence of that which may materialize in voice, feeling, sight, consciousness of presence, and the like. Be not afraid, ever surrounding self with His presence of love; for He hast given His angels charge concerning thee, that they bear thee up, that thou stumblest not when thou wouldst aid.
14. (Q) Should all treatments be made with or through one of the three, three-dimensional vibrations?
    (A) Either through the one or the three, dependent - as has been given by the classifications of same - as to the consciousness necessary to be raised in the individual that seeks; for He took individuals WHERE they were, in their own environ, their own surroundings, and transmitted to their consciousness - either by act, word or deed - that NECESSARY to awaken or allow that necessary to bring healing to those who sought for same.
15. (Q) [288]: Please explain the pumping sensation I experience in the lower part of my spine during meditation, and what I should understand from it?
    (A) As has been given, as to how those forces in the system are the channels through which the activating sensations arise through those forces of the body for transmission to those portions of the physical body from which sensations are sent out for the activating forces IN the physical bodies, then these are but the samples, or the attempts of those forces to rise to their activities in the consciousness of the body. Do not force same, but so conduct the mind's trend, the body's activities, as to leave self a channel for such expression.
16. (Q) [295]: What is the cause of the sensation I feel in my eyes at times during meditation?
    (A) As is manifest by the activities of those that would bring healing to others, the healing of every sort must come first in self that it may be raised in another. This is the healing in self, with that raising of the vision that may heal in others.
17. (Q) Any message for the group as a whole?
    (A) Keep in that way, in patience, in persistence, in sincerity, in truth. Faint not that there are periods when apparently little is seen to be accomplished externally. Know that thou hast set in motion that leaven that worketh all unseen, yet will bring the consciousness of His love, His hope, His presence, into the lives of all. Each should be patient first with self, in honor preferring one another. Sit not in the seat of the scornful. Stand not in the place of the cynic. Be mindful not of things of high estate; rather give place to that that makes for sweetening in the lives of all; for he that wishes his brother well, yet makes no move to aid or supply, or to comfort, or to cheer, is only fooling self. He that would know the way must be oft in prayer, joyous prayer, KNOWING He giveth life to as many as seek in sincerity to be the channel of blessing to someone; for "Inasmuch as ye did a kindness, a holy word, a clothing in act as to one of these the least of my little ones, ye have done it unto me." As He knoweth thee, so may ye know Him, ye who have been chosen for the various channels of activity in spirit, in mind, in body, for the manifesting of His glory in the earth. Be faithful. Do not allow self to be so overcome in ANY manner as to miss that calling in Him; for He is faithful who has promised to be near.
18. We are through.

BACKGROUND

1. Subject of 281-12 - "Glad Helpers".

REPORTS

1. 11/17/32 EC's letter to Mrs. [264]: "The other day a lady told me one of the Prayer Group [281] held her son-in-law in meditation when he was first taken to the hospital with a serious blood poisoning. He recovered very quickly; it was a mystery to the doctors how he was able to go home after only 4 days when the poison had reached his shoulder from an infection in the hand, and to go to work immediately after. God moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform."
