In the experience the entity faltered, yet - as the entity
experienced through the application of lessons in the mental
and the spiritual forces applied in practicality in the
experience of others - brought rather the understandings.
Yet the entity saw many that were persecuted for their
activities in their communications with outside influences,
or of the souls of those that have the more often sought that
there be the comprehending of the continuity of life. And,
oh that all would gain - as this entity may - the under-
standing that the more often do those that have passed on
seek counsel and aid for their abilities to journey on,
rather than to confuse themselves with the material forces
in the earth. Only those that are of the higher forces as
teachers, as ministers, may aid those that seek to build in
their own experience that which will better fit them for the
understanding as the veil is pulled aside. For, life is of
the Creator - and it may only be changed, it CANNOT be ended
or destroyed. It can ONLY return from whence it came. As
to how soon it prepares its soul, that is of the influences
that may be carried to the Maker, depends upon what that soul
in its environs, in its experiences, does concerning that it
knows about that He, the Father, would have it do.
There is not more required than can be fulfilled in the
experience of any soul. It is true that others, and
individuals, may make for influences that may make for
changes in the activities, but if the ideal and the soul's
longing is set in Him - only self may separate that soul
from its Maker.
Before this we find the entity in that land when there were
changes coming into the land that then ruled the greater
portion of the civilized, now called, land - or in the Roman
periods when there was the returning of the soldiers that
were given to tell their own peoples first of what was taking
place in Judea, how the activities there of the individual
that had come of lowly birth had brought life, hope and
understanding to many, and how that it was being said by
those in power that He was turning the world upside down.
Indeed did the knowledge then, and does the knowledge today
of the consciousness of that life lived in the earth,
conscious in thine own heart, turn the world upside down -
when considered from a commercial or a commonplace
experience.
For, the entity then was among those - and the wife of one
of the soldiers, in the name Solonika, and among those that
had seen those of the bearing of the Cross to the hill. And
as this experience was told the entity, and later through
the teachings of those that had come and did come to the
land to spread these teachings, the entity then came to know
in the own experience those blessings that might come by the
practical application of "Love thy neighbor as thyself - Do
unto others as ye would have others do unto you." For, this
being the whole law as applied to man in his relations to
his fellow man, makes for the abilities in the experience
of every soul to know His ways, to be guided by His that have
been washed in the blood of that Lamb, and that have sat down
on the right hand until that day when they may in their own
experience - through the seekers of those that would know His
face - again journey to aid, to guide, to direct those in
their steps day by day.
From the experience the entity gained, and in the present
are those seekings as applied to the more material things
in the experience, as in its dealings with its fellow man,
may bring more and more into the understandings of self as
to why, as to when one may know that the Redeemer liveth,
and that we shall see Him as He IS.
Before this we find in that sojourn in the land now known
as Egypt, during those experiences when many were being
taught in the ways of those peoples that had gathered there,
and the Priest and his aids were sending out the emissaries
to the varied lands.
The entity was among the princesses of India that came to
that land of Ra, there gaining much in the activities with
those in the temples of service, as to how the bodies might
be purged from the wayward forces and influences in their
experience. In the Temple of Sacrifice and in the Temple
Beautiful did the entity gain. Then gaining from those
applications also where there were meted to the bodies of
men those applications in adding to, in the daily life, the
things that pertain to the bodily needs.
Then in the name Susi-set, the entity went again to her own
lands, and began to give to her OWN peoples in that land what
had been gained in the experiences in Egypt. And there was
kept for the whole period of the entity's sojourn those
relations with those that aided in adding to the young
peoples in that land the lessons of life as applied to the
material body, and in giving out their influence to others.
Gaining throughout that sojourn.
In the present the applications of those experiences may
be seen in the mental abilities, the ability to know detail
activities that are the more oft necessary in the experience
of others to bring results, physical or mental, in the lives
or activities of others.
Before this we find in the Atlantean sojourn when there were
those turmoils from the second period of the separations in
the land, and there began the first of the leavings of the
peoples to other lands that were being prepared or were
arising in their activities. And the entity was among
those that were persuaded, through the relationships and
through the activities, to leave the law of One to join
rather in the mysteries of that as might be accomplished
among a strange people. And hence came into the land of
Mayra (?) [Maya?], or that now called - in America Nevada
and Colorado.
In the sojourn there, both developments and retardments came
to the entity's experience, until there were the meetings
of those that were journeying again into the land from the
activities, and then the entity began to build in self and
to give to others the laws of One - that apply even in the
experiences of every soul in the present. For, ever has
been, ever will be, the law of One the same. "Love ye in
your daily experience. Apply ye in your daily activities
the love that ye would have the Father show thee, in thy
relationships to thy fellows, do ye know the law of One."
As to the abilities of the entity in the present, and that
to which it may attain, and how:
In the application of self to that it knows day by day.
For, there is given to each that it may use in its
relationships to others. For, as ye apply does there come
the understanding in the activities.
As to the fields of the material relationships, the entity
is given in counseling to others, given in meeting the needs
of the experiences from day to day, being rather mindful of
the spiritual forces than the needs of the body - and in so
doing the entity will bring the understandings, of, "As ye
would that men should do unto you, do ye even so to them."
Ready for questions.
(Q) When did I meet my husband - in what life before?
(A) In the activities in Salem, and in the Providence Town
area; as a teacher, what would be called a master in the
schools then.
(Q) Did I meet C. F. Loomis before?
(A) In Rome.
(Q) Will you explain for the entity just how the abilities
in the writing may be developed?
(A) By applying self in first opening self for those
influences that may aid in guiding that as may be put into
expression. For, as given, seek beyond that veil that is
also seeking aid, rather to the realm where teachers,
ministers, advisors would come, surrounding self with that
influence where there is the consciousness of the Christ -
whether ye call Him by some other name, it must be from the
Throne of Grace.
(Q) How can the entity be sure when such contacts are
established?
(A) Is the entity sure when it's hungry, or when it's
thirsty? When it's satisfied, or when it hurts, or when
there is any influence in its experience? Such a foolish
question!
We are through.
