TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the reading as given on interpretation of dream of EC, on 10/27/25 [294-44], and you will answer questions regarding same in such a way and manner that will be fully understandable to the conscious mind of EC, for he seeks to know the truth and to abide by same. So please answer them fully and in an understandable manner to this conscious mind. I will quote from this reading and will ask that you explain same in the manner as asked.
2. EC: Yes, we have the interpretation of the dreams as given, as has been transcribed.
3. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) "for the old man with the thin clothing presents that condition that would bring the properties together that would assist many in the ills of the human family."
   (A) This, as has been given, is given in the emblematical manner, and the interpretation of same is clear to one that will read the dream and the interpretation of same. That this may be clarified, as seen, old man meaning one that would prepare the properties as may be given through the sources as needs be exploited - from the physical viewpoint, see? The old presenting one not strong physically, mentally or financially, not an individual but ANY individual who would prepare same, see? for as is seen, the preparation does not come from one skilled in physical manner in the preparing of properties for the ills of human family, but one with the will, the inclination, the desire, to serve mankind through the manifestation of the Universal Forces as are set in motion in earth's plane through these manners, see?
5. (Q) "The seeing of a condition that shows the troubles with the elderly persons and a fish bound on the sore, shows the conditions as are seen in that near a place where many fishes may be caught, being the place from which, such a source, the the work of EC should be expanded."
   (A) This again the same emblematical manner, taking into consideration, ever, all those truths that have been given as to, from where, the work should be sent abroad. Or the place, physically, from which the work should be propagated, for, as is seen, the one in distress, one sick, one maimed, see? in way of progress, in foot, see? The unreasonableness of fish being bound onto heel, see? showing the separation between the two, see? that the fish represents the source from which EC should work, he viewing the condition - not unreasonable to others, unreasonable to EC that fish is bound on it, see?
6. (Q) "The call then as is seen to tell this man, this sufferer, the trouble and giving of the time and the asking of the question, with the answer by both the elderly person and the young lady, there is seen that as to how the conditions may be intercepted or assisted by the injection of young or old into the work as is contemplated."
   (A) In this again there must be considered, then, those conditions as have been set by the work itself, as to that necessary for individuals to obtain, receive, such assistance. In this we find the individual approaching the person, see? not the person seeking for aid - the individual, EC, seeking rather to give out that he has. Thence from that source do we see how the injection of conditions from young or old, as in the manner of the questioning from the man, or man in the manner of action of the lady, see? these show how that improper injection of conditions affect the work as contemplated, whether it's from young or whether from old. For as seen in first place, that done for work to be accomplished is opposite from that as has been given, see? All conditions must be correlated together, if one would understand that attempting to be given for the mind of man to consider the ways of the highest forces with mortal man.
7. (Q) "The telling then of the remedy and that which will relief, and the time set in five - seven - seventeen - twelve - nine - there are seen those correlations again of numbers, in which there is given the key, as it were, to the time, the manner, the way, in which the accomplishment of those contemplated conditions may be carried out." You will please explain this relation of numbers and the key as to how they show the time, the manner and the way.
   (A) In this, then, there must first be the understanding of conditions as relate to numbers, time place and manner, forgetting not any information given as regards to any or all of such conditions, whether related as seen physically or separately, see? First, there being:
   All time is one time - see? That is as a fact, see? All space is one space - see? Another fact. All numbers a one number - see? Their correlation then in numbers: As given, one the whole, see? Two the weakness, see? for we have a division. Three the triune, or the weakness of three ones, see? Four a double weakness. All these have been given, see? Look these over. Then, as is seen in this, we have the vision of first, by man, five years, see? The correction by the young person, approaching that as youth taking advantage over age, see? making seven, addition of two weakness' added to strength, making mystery - seven, see? Following? - Then the added by the recall of past - divided in man's conception of same years, see? nine - ten - twelve, see? seventeen, see? These then, as related to that are the key to conditions of how, the manner, the way, such would be performed. Years were given become weeks, see? Then five weeks. A correction by two weeks - a combination then of seventeen weeks, a manner the combinations again of the nine - twelve - seventeen - double seven and the five, all correlating to then of how, manner, way. These relating to that through which such means would be accumulated, see, to the entity for the accomplishing of those things, as is seen given to these individuals as to how the remedy should work. As each had been a year in doing, in the accomplishing, a week taking place of a year, see? Then, as when the work would be begun, we would find: where seven years to build, seven weeks to accomplish the manner in which same may be perfected or brought to a whole.
8. (Q) "Again we see that multiple of same in five - seven - five - twelve - two - seven - nine. These all show their relations one to another."
   (A) This only the explanation attempting to be made to the conscious mind of the conditions that have been shown in that as given.
9. (Q) "Then this relates, as we see, directly to that condition as has been given in preparing properties to be distributed to people, and the connection of same with the lesson as may be given to others that will help spiritually, mentally, morally and financially."
   (A) This, then, only goes to give that understanding that this may not be applied in any sense, particularly mental, to the physical condition, save to that portion as pertains to those properties that may be given to the ill for specific conditions.
10. We are through with this reading.
