Saturday afternoon, February 3, 1934, 3:45 to 5:05 o'clock,
at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest W. Zentgraf, 400 St.
Paul's Avenue, Stapleton, S.I., N.Y., message received
through Mrs. Eileen Garrett.
PRESENT: Eileen Garrett; Hugh Lynn Cayce, Conductor;
Gladys Davis, Steno.; Edgar Cayce, Margaret Naumberg,
Helene, Ernest, Robert, Margret and Lilian Zentgraf,
Eleanor and Adolph Ostwald; Also T. Mitchell Hastings.
EG: It is I, Uvani, I give you greeting, friends. Peace
be with you and in your life, and in your work, and in your
household. I give you greeting, my friends. What is it you
would have of me, please?
1.
(Q) What can you tell us regarding Mr. Cayce's - Edgar
Cayce's - psychic work?
(A) What I can tell you regarding his psychic work is very
little more than you yourselves know. I find him, as I come
in contact with the emanations that come from him into this
room, peculiarly intuitive, supersensitive, and yet not using
all the power that is within him. I find that there is a
great passivity of consciousness which permits him the
amazing reflective value which I am sure he is capable of
using. I am seeing that the vibrations give to him much in
the method of chemical formation, and I do not know at all
if he has ever laid ON the hands on the sick, but I am sure
that he possesses a great deal of magnetic force within the
hands, and I do feel that sometime it would relieve him -
and very much relieve in the cases of congestion such as the
nervous conditions that assail the human race - if he did
just break up the auric emanations about the sick one and
laid his own STRONG condition of healing about him. To do
this, of course, it would always be well for him to wet the
hands and to immediately get into contact with the force
that is there, and when he is finished - this would take him
from five to seven minutes, to give his help - then again
wash the hands, so there would be no danger of the contacts
of the illness getting into his own etheric state. However,
if he does not do this, it is probably because his own
subconscious mind has said to him that he is a passive
personality who will easily accept these things. If you
forgive me that I make - and it is not a criticism - this I
am certain I also feel that it would be helpful for him to
stimulate his clairvoyant vision, so that he might become
aware of the strength of the people who do work with him. I
am certain that whatever his own reflective qualities are,
there are still centers within that can be used to greater
clarification. I feel so certain that at a moment in his
passive quantity he comes into contact with MANY universal
laws, but if he became acquiescent to the use of the control
he could become a greater factor, inasmuch as he would not
only say this IS what I see and hear but it would also be so
much more emphatic in the emphasis of these who would help
him. Nevertheless, I offer this not as a criticism but as
something that I know would be valuable to him. On the other
hand, my friends, if he is happy in his own state it is also
good, for what IS good for him, as HE knows and understands,
it is probably the right interpretation. I hope that answers
your question.
2.
(Q) What do you find is the source of his information
when he goes into trance?
(A) The source of his information, my friends, is achieved
in this way. To understand at all the mechanism of the
individual you have got to examine that how is the body
mechanical. There is the etheric body by which we contact
with the soul, for the soul is external to man, and the soul
is - shall we say - that that we develop in the later stages
to its own understanding, but IS - as it were - the rapping
of the spirit, which is at all times perfect and at all times
aware, at all times understanding. What, therefore, happens
when he goes into - or how shall we say, returns, is this:
That he passes into the etheric state. He, therefore, as it
were, is outside of his body. In this state he is aware of
the bodily contacts that can come to him, and also is his
vision exhilarated by all that may be happening in your area.
But he can do more than this. He can see within the
reflection of his own life that that is fundamental, not only
to himself but also to the people he may work with, IF he is
in strong sympathy with them. It makes a great drain,
however, that he does not admit of help in this. Did he
admit of help at all, as some one who would interpret for
him, it would give him so much more ability to accomplish
more. By that I mean he would not himself feel the inner
exhaustion, not only is he coming out of the body mechanical
drawing way from it but he is using his full etheric leverage
and is also drawing upon his own spiritual light for your
assistance. While it may be said, therefore, that ever did
he use this without help, he is giving you something of his
own life. That is what happens.
3.
(Q) Does his psychic power depend upon previous
incarnations?
(A) In his case very definitely so, yes. Unless he had
indeed understood in the past the laws of passivity, the
laws of withdrawal, and the inner law of knowing, he would
not be able to get this reflection through himself. There
is no doubt at all that I feel, as I come more and more into
contact with the emanations, that he is capable of so much
more from within himself than he actually even now responds
to. That may be due, as I have said, to the fact that he
uses his own spirit refection to see, to hear and to
understand, but definitely in his case he has had previous
understanding, and indeed I would say to you that any
philosopher, any teacher, any instructor, any great genius
- for it is after all genius of the spirit - any great
artist, has had previous understanding of the law - as this
one, to be able in this state to express ANYTHING of the law
clearly. I think that answers the questions.
4.
(Q) Can you describe any of this previous development
of his for us?
(A) I have a very, very strong feeling about his previous
development. I am not going into it at very great length
with you, but there is no doubt at all that he has had a
very, very strong tie-up with northern India, as also he
has in two instances with Egypt. It is his northern Indian
experience that rather he is in conflict with at this moment.
It is that in a sense that obscures his vision. I am very
certain that a certain association with that continent will
give to him that the great light of understanding would come
to him, and that he would therefore revivify the power that
is his. He has also obviously had much to do with the Nordic
countries at one time, and I am sure that his very
experiences may have been towards that path of the Celtic
understanding, although not as he knows it now - the
forefathers or forebears - but the great protest that HOLDS
him now in chains to his own being is a protest against
conditions produced in India. His Egyptian experiences were
evidently at peace for him, therefore it may be that he
blurs the vision in the hope to identify himself with that
he was, but the greater - the greater - the greater vision
is of India and of the association. If that can be lifted,
behold a new channel, a new understanding in work can be
accomplished.
5.
(Q) Who are his spiritual guides?
(A) My friend, I think that I never use the word guide.
There is such a humility about it. It is - When you permit
yourself to work for the good of humanity in this way, you
draw to yourself not only in this experience but in many
experiences hosts of sympathetic people. Among these
sympathetic people there may be the one, two, three - or
there may be only one who, I will say, will interpret and -
I would always have you do not fail to know - guide the
principles behind our work. Neither do we control, my
friend. We desire only, if we see you showing a light, to
magnify, to make that light gleam larger in the gloom of
misunderstanding - and have we not ourselves passed through
this stage such a very short time - and is it not therefore
why we now want to help you in sympathy and understanding?
We neither guide, please, nor control, but I have telled
to you, please, that the contact - he has one very strong
Egyptian contact, one very strong, and I would feel that most
of his - the thing that he protests against is the Indian,
which is particularly strong. Now he should be able very
strongly to understand the teachings of Brahma - there is no
doubt of this, but I do feel he may have suffered during this
teaching, and so pushes it away, but the strongest force
behind him is that Indian, please, which he does not yet know
of.
6.
(Q) You spoke of his securing a helper in interpreting
his work. How can he do this?
(A) I will tell you what to do, and do it with great
earnestness and great care. You see, it is a terrific
strain upon him, and if he will permit help there will be
less effort in getting away. Now you deal with your beloved
parent, my son, and I would say to you that all is
cooperation, certainly not without - that you would, in the
moments of susceptibility, ask that one should make himself
better understood, who would - we say - take the fidelity to
himself, the desire to interpret the law. Nevermind what
the law is. We all interpret an understanding, emotion or
conviction, but he himself will bring that personality
through to you, and you know that he has already made the
signs of doing this. Especially with a very, very strong
Grecian condition, that sometimes has essayed to approach
him.
7.
(Q) Would you give the name of the Grecian?
(A) No, I do not think so. That is for him and for his
son to be able to find out for themselves. He has this
within his own understanding, but I am only offering to you
a point of view. I am far too understanding to say to any
man do this or do that. So, if he cares to, with your
cooperation, then ask and insist upon that strength through
someone else who will help you, free you, and give you
greater ability to reach these things - by his help and
sympathy. You see, my boy.
8.
(Q) Can you tell us, do you find that you have any
contact with this entity in the past, my father?
(A) No, but there are those around me who often speak, who
know him well. I am an Arab.
9.
(Q) Will you tell us something about yourself in relation
to your own development? Have you had any contact with the
Zoroastrian faith?
(A) I am a follower of - or if you will let us put it very
mildly, in my earth incarnation - of Mohammed, but in my
understandings - and remember I have to have no faith, but
many channels by which I am understood and so communicate.
I have come into contact with very closely not only the first
Zoroaster but with the later, which is tied up very much with
the Mosaic. I have come into contact with the teachings of
the Persian, as you understand. I understand the elements of
this; its worship of the Whole, of the Sun, of the Moon, if
the kind of life in all its varying forms; because, as you
well know, man has emanated from such suns to such earth,
and gone through all the evolutionary process. Therefore,
this is understood and embraced within the teachings of the
first Zoroaster.
10.
(Q) Regarding the experiment this morning, in which
Mr. Cayce - my father - gave a psychic reading for Mrs.
Garrett, through whom you speak - What can you tell us
regarding that entity who gave his name as giving that
information this morning?
(A) I was not present, my friend, at this experience; also
I have not your father's permission to speak of this.
(EC: "You may speak of it.") Then:
My friend, then I will tell you exactly the contacts with
you, and perhaps they may arouse something within your own
heart. You are very definitely - rather, shall I say, with
an inclination, probably because you remember it much more
eagerly, I use the word eagerly to you because I feel that
you get some release within your Egyptian peace, but while
you get much knowledge in that direction remember also that
you have a greater fundamental understanding with the Hindu
knowledge, if you will permit - and the contacts that I get
in connection with you - one of a greater and lesser - and
mark me, I do not emphasize greater and lesser in the way it
is used, but I use it in the method of knowledge - which you
were connected with the worship not only of Brahma and the
Celtic (?) but of the child god, or the elephant - these two
are in very close contact at all times with your beloved
parent. But I am very certain that he must have suffered
great torture and great sacrifice during this understanding,
with the results that a contact with him is almost, as it
were, blocked out - and that is a pity, because I think they
come back to make something very right for him that has been
a wrong, and I believe that he can use this to his own
greater work. But the one that I have most impression of,
please, and one I can see as being valuable to you, is a man
of strong and ardent physique - you will find that he has
much of the look of the Arab-Hebraic (?) - I do not think he
was of the Hebrew understanding, he is probably of Greece,
but he must have come into the Hebrew contact to understand
it and to stimulate it and revive it with his own
understanding. In such a one a greater humanity bespeaks
than you will find with the Hebraic understanding. He does
at all times come in contact with your beloved parent, and
would help him at all times. He knows therefore much of the
Mosaic law, he knows the law of Chaldea and the law of the
Egyptian understanding of energy and life. So it would seem
to me that he has stood in very, very close contact to you at
all times, and has on more than one occasion revealed
himself. Now why do you not let him come and break down some
of the darkness, you see, of your beloved parent; for your
beloved parent has felt "I am on the verge of something, but
it is as though a blind light is there - and then I lose it."
I am very certain that for his own experiment and greater
good, if you permit him in his next opening, allow this one
to come into being, you will loosen a whole fund of ability
and give to him the greater clarification with all his work,
taking away much of the exhaustion and confusion that
sometimes stands in his method.
Believe me, my friend, I thank you that you permit me to
speak with you for a moment, but if you knew the infinitive
power for good that you have behind you, you would not be
discouraged at this moment. You would really permit this
little experiment of opening up the help of one that may
stand between you and many invasions that hinder your work,
when you are doing this almost unaided. If you open your
arms to the loving help that this one would give to you, it
would renew a virility, an ease, and immediately a greater
peace of mind. That, I assure you, is true. However, I know
the laws you do, and I am not saying to this is RIGHT - I
tell you it is there, and if it seems good to you use it and
if not, it is well as you think. Each one must do what he
feels is right for him, as he feels it. Then everybody would
say, "But what is right?" We are all part of a great
universal God, a great God, greater than the intelligence of
many at this stage can scarcely comprehend. This is how one
first becomes aware of the comprehension within self of the
greatness of the universe, that we desire in our humbleness
to enter into this and face ourselves for the greater
knowledge, and so because we are part of that great
enterprise, if you will, it is within the heart of each of us
to understand what is good and you know very well that we
have only to ask ourselves and be strong enough to obey the
word. If we do that, we are then filling out the pattern, of
course; and therefore I say that I am telling you, my friend,
in all sincerity, that I KNOW that this strength is behind
you - but it is for you ALWAYS to say whether YOU feel that
it is right for you. Absolutely free will to each one, to
fulfill his part of the pattern.
11.
(Q) Do you get the name of this entity that would help?
(A) No, that is for you and your father.
12.
(Q) Can you give us more regarding this Hindu appearance
that you speak of as being very definitely influencing my
father's life in the present?
(A) I speak of a life in India. I speak of his being pulled
apart. I feel that very definitely, maybe for power, maybe
through misunderstanding, rather disobeying the purer Brahman
law; though I don't know that is true, I have a very definite
feeling that he at one time disobeyed this understanding of
the law, for he evidently has suffered, been tortured, been
hurt; and you will find, my friend, that sometime if you like
I would speak with you of these many things that have held
him up in life - the contact almost to choke, the inability
sometimes to be able to get the words clearly - these
associations have been hurried over, and all have been, if
you understand, LEFT as a cloud. Now the moment that an
akinship in this brings out thought of the past, I think
you'll pull down the curtain. That is, however, held up on
account of his own development. Now I know that through this
other entity he can be freed.
13.
(Q) In trance condition, or in an unconscious state as
Dad receives this information, just how do you explain the
process that he goes through in getting the information,
say for another individual, in a Life Reading?
(A) Well now, my child, you know very well that each of us
is as our experience has made us, and you know that your
father - more than anyone else dealing with this work - takes
the very much interest in the body-mechanical. He himself
departs from body-mechanical; that is, the everyday material
body. I have said to you that he enters his own etheric
state, which is the next - what you call trance - after that
I do not find him. It is almost as though he stands in the
door. I have the feeling that he looks at the description
of life in his own experience and by the light of his own
spiritual understanding he immediately sees the spirit
contact of the personality and what has been given to the
soul in experience. After all, there is no example, there is
no judge but your own self; therefore, it is often doing your
father harm and using his strength, because he is able to see
without help except by the very light of the etheric body;
just as if you held a flame and you examined something and
you knew by looking at it that this had happened because of
that. How does he know it? He knows it by his own inner
understanding of life that you cannot GIVE him, only through
experience. No one can take it away from him. You may
certainly stimulate the vitality by asking for help of this
one who would help. But in his experience he SEES the soul
experience of this one or that one in the light of his own.
You see, we are too much inclined to think of ourselves as
the body, and I have never actually met, I have you my
friend, your reality, but you will all say, "You know one
another." It is not true, you do not. You see the
mechanical being propelled, and it is the soul that is
reality and the body the machine. Now if that is so, your
father is not dealing with bodies but is dealing with the
experience that affects the material body. You do see that,
do you not?
14.
(Q) What would you recommend or suggest as the most
important line for my father's psychic work?
(A) The most important line for your father's work? You
will do well to suggest this, my child: He should STAND up
and permit of help; I mean that, because I do feel that he
is not himself ENTIRELY strong enough to carry the load of
these responsibilities any further. Because he is using his
own light, he is dimming his own light. Let him get help to
himself. I am sure you understand how very tired, how
sometimes hopeless it may all seem, how his own clarification
is very often bewildered by the ill judgements of people not
capable of judging. You do know that. You live with him,
so you know a little of the COMPLETE misunderstandings of
most who come into daily contact with him; they come into
his life and proceed to take him to pieces. Is it not so,
that he has suffered? Now if he permits somebody like myself
to come in, who will HELP him clarify that he sees, and when
he is not able to clarify for himself, it will give him
greater light; for I and others like me hold but a light
upon the road for the weary so that they will not make the
same mistakes from the selfsame experience that we have
encountered. True, this is an experience each must go
through; we may not interfere with your experience, but
surely we may hold the light of clarification for you if you
are weary, not when you are strong. And so the first thing
I want to say to you is to STAND UP - "I will not have
interference from anyone, I will be strong to myself, I must
be a strong, fine, worthy channel; that I owe to myself, for
if I am that to myself, then I am that to every man." Then
people have greater respect for the knowledge. You see the
difference? It will strengthen his body, his forces, his
will to see a new strength, his will to see youth; so that
he will not say "I do not know if I can get anything." As
long as he does that he is open to the conflicts of mankind.
But when he does this much for himself, my son, then he can
go and give of that marvelous understanding to all. You do
see that? You know how tired, you know the difficulties,
you know that at times he has felt that he would just like
to drop dead in the face of it all. Now I am very sure that
he does not live as he should, in quiet, in PEACE, and in
understanding.
15.
(Q) Do you find that his Physical Readings, Life
Readings or the Mental and Spiritual Readings would be the
most beneficial in peoples' lives?
(A) I think, my friend, that the real development is the
Life Reading. I tell you why it is important. I don't
believe in heading off any situation for anybody, but after
all don't we come back through this veil [vale?] again and
again that we may share our responsibilities, pass our tests
through experience, in the being and doing that with freedom
which we should do without these associations with other
lives such as he has coming up and had been avoiding and
therefore making it difficult to give his best to his fellow
man? The knowledge and understanding of past lives is giving
a man a map of his body, so that he may know his territory
and knowing his territory use it to the best advantage.
Therefore, I see the importance of the Life Readings. When
he gets the understanding of his past, I am sure all these
clarifications will come to him. It is so often shown in the
Life Readings that an illness is caused by a past life and is
there to be met by the individual. So, I think his healing
and Life Readings are important.
16.
(Q) Do you get anything in relation to his development
with the name Uhjltd?
(A) Now we would get that going back to the pre-Celtic area,
everything connected with that would suggest a period of
before any of your what you call civilizations (forgive these
terms in connection with some of them, but it is the language
I know to express what we have called that name). Uhjltd, as
you know, means exaltation. He who would be named by such a
name would probably have evidently had to hold hands to the
God, and in his day the gods of the elements would be
represented in great force - that you will find among the
Celtic peoples and among some of the others later, but the
Uhjltd itself is as one acceptable, as you know, in the sight
of God, in humanity. So the Uhjltd is almost the war song
of exaltation, and would definitely therefore bring to a
personality, outside of animate things, these ranges we have
been speaking of. It commands sacrifice, it commands prayer.
The nearest you will come to the name, I think, you will find
it in the old Aryan and you will find it in the Hindu - you
see how that carries forward and probably was connected with
some of these people whose understanding of the law is lost
to us.
17.
(Q) In relation to this Uhjltd, can you get any further
connection with the entity Edgar Cayce, with my father, with
a previous experience?
(A) I tell you what I would do for you; it would be far off
experience, that is very definite. It would be that
experience - I tell you you have little that would convey
anything to what I mean. There was a land of people - the
only connection we have is in some of the Mongolian
buildings, and I think you will see it again in some of the
old islands that have been left by the great period of
destruction or the floods. The only vestige of it left in
anything connected with it would probably be the isles in the
Celt and the Indian. Really it is the word of sacrifice. If
you will remember most of these people of the isles builded
great monuments to the magnificence of God and made
sacrifices, and I am very definitely of the impression that
to do any justice to this - if you will give me something
upon which your father has written a name, a number, I could
see this definitely. (Not now - within a month.) Write any
number that comes to him. I will be very happy to give you
this. I only know that it is a great name, the meaning of
sacrifice, and to give this with any degree of rightfulness,
you see my point, it would be to give you more energy - and
I am incapable now just to give that to you. But just with
the number that comes to him, just so the keynote will give
to me the key by which I can take hold of this; for, as you
know, number is the creation of the universe and all its
understandings of religion and formula given to man.
I would be happy to follow it up, but remember - Dr. Cayce -
it is a very strong, particularly strong contact.
18.
(Q) In trance condition my father sometimes visions a
passing through planes to obtain the necessary records of
individuals' lives.
(A) I would not be at all surprised that your father, your
beloved parent, like all of us, is related to cosmic law.
There's no doubt that in his passage into the etheric state
it is possible for him to feel the stimulation and movement
of his own universe, but it is slow - passing through many
dangers, as you see, because these are the stages of
universal knowledge are enclosing surely the earth of which
you are a part. Many people refer to them, I think the
Theosophical, as the Akashic records, and some say that they
are in the heavens. These records are there certainly for
the visioning of any who will throw himself into the state
of exaltation. It is quite probable he is not alone there,
but when he does not see any figure waiting it is probably
because there is always that desire to obtain knowledge which
he sets out to get for himself.
19.
(Q) He has seen a figure. Is this the same, perhaps,
that you have mentioned as trying to help him?
(A) Yes, sometimes showing to him - or trying to show to
him the hall of wisdom, showing to him the records of the
Creative Forces, but it is always the presentation of the
one figure. Now if only he will ask, and stop a moment to
receive the help, he shall be activated - so that the
thoughts will be more to his own understandings.
20.
(Q) Why is it that he hasn't been able to get the
Indian incarnation as you speak of in his own Life Reading?
(A) Because, my son, the things that have hurt are the
things that we protest against, and I have the feeling that
if he knows his Indian incarnation and all connected with it
he will see that it is because he was badly hurt, tortured,
and it was a period of much misery, and I think he has pulled
away from it as we always retreat from things that we do not
like. This is the shadow that has stood between him and his
greater understanding, fighting against this greatest period
of soul achievement.
21.
(Q) Could this Indian incarnation be the same as the
Persian?
(A) Very definitely, yes, because it would be connected with
both. Remember that there is the understanding of the
Brahman which does not belong to the Indian but rather to the
Aryan people, who rightly had their beginnings in the great
Teutonic countries. They spread over these various planes,
they moved across the Indian and up to the north and south;
but it is definitely his knowledge and suffering among these
peoples that he is keeping in the background.
22.
(Q) You find that this actually took place in India?
(A) India.
23.
(Q) Can you give the period?
(A) Now one thing that is very clear, the suffering here was
a much later date, you know please, than the Egyptian, which
of course makes it quite obvious that he would not see it -
it would seem to be almost as if he stepped out of it, you
see, as though you pull a blind down. If he would only open
and look at the beauty of this Indian incarnation, which
stands very close to him but he has turned his back on it,
desiring to look into the realms where there was peace, but
I am sure he will remember this himself - if you will give
him the stimulation that he needs.
24.
(Q) How would you advise that we go about doing this?
(A) I tell you exactly what to do. You see, he has himself
got a little fear of suspended animation; sometimes it is
difficult for him to formulate words, and the tendency to
speak too quickly and at others his slowness of speech, and
the desire almost to learn to speak again, which suggests to
me he has been tortured to the throat and tongue. This may
bring to him pictures, by the stimulation towards the
sacrifice and the records. It is almost as though at the
moment he becomes aware he will turn his back upon things,
and that is the protest within him, "I do not want to mix up
any more with sacrifice to myself," and I am sure these
contacts are the things that have so often crept up in his
life and are the things that he could not get past. But
there is very definitely danger to himself until he sees it
more definitely in this whole channel.
25.
(Q) In relation to his work we sometimes find that
entities do speak through him. How is this the case?
(A) You see, at times when he is mightily exhausted,
somebody comes to him for - how you call - analysis reading.
He is very ill, he may not be consciously tired, but
nevertheless there may be in the state of unconsciousness
that another person may bring to him or keep him in sympathy
with that contact. Nevertheless, his desire is to do it
himself. But such a person may help at times, who may
manifest for a moment, that your father may know nothing
about him, may have no relation, but it may be an entity will
come in to help - as he will stimulate something in the
person who needs the analysis, probably not related either
in importance or understanding to your parent, but if they
come again - where they see a channel to come back and forth
- it is a dangerous experimentation. I do not care for that
so much, that is why I feel that he needs this one to help
him, for he does exhaust his greater strength in his own
activity, and with such help he may give greater knowledge
with less exhaustion to himself.
26.
(Q) Do you connect in any way with his work the name
Halaliel?
(A) We do know the meaning of the name, my friend. It is
connected so definitely over a period of time that we just
spoke of. You see after all the meaning of it, you are not
getting it in its correctness, but let him give to you that
the very significance of it is as one who has responded, one
who has been scorched, one who has overcome, one who has
survived.
I rather hope, my friend, you will permit this dweller to
come very close to you. I believe in the heart of me you
you are trying to do a very sincere and beautiful work, and
I hope wherever our roads may meet we may take the time to
take each other's hand and give each other the blessing of
the universe. But because of the fact that you do not always
know how to use that illimitable fund that is yours, I would
say to you it would be so well worth while to permit help,
that there may be much beauty and understanding, much more
humility and much more healing, from your experience in the
Indian incarnation. There is so much more strength if you
if you give yourself in all. That I would say to you. Is
there anything more you would like to say to me before I
leave?
27.
(Q) Can you tell us anything regarding this crystal sent
my father from India? Do you know who sent it to him? We
have the crystal ball here.
(A) But I am very certain there is a definite connection
between that and his own experience, and I feel very
definitely certain that it is after all what you call the
looking glass. Look within it, my friend, and see the thing
that has been troubling your life. If you would only
understand, see that the whole thing has within it the
significance. I do not think that your father desires to
look within the crystal at all, but I'm sure that if he does
he will see this experience that he is avoiding. It is given
to him as a symbol.
28.
(Q) Which one of us could help him most? (Ques. by
Mrs. Zentgraf)
(A) I am certain that he needs help. I am sure that in the
understanding and response to him that you would always be
able to help him greatly. For we are lights on a weary road.
29.
(Q) Can you tell me in what way your work and Edgar
Cayce's work can be of help one to the other?
(A) Inasmuch as they have met and spoken with spiritual
ease, recognizing each in the other a center-point of light,
so let them hold this to themselves and I am very certain,
my friend, that if in the various meetings there is something
to do that could help the other it will be done; for so
surely is our work based upon that. Let the spirit of
tolerance and good humor speak one for the other, for they
are but the channels of a greater light.
30.
(Q) There was an entity last night who desired to speak,
who said he would speak through you. Is that permissible for
that entity at this time?
(A) Did he make himself wholly and completely clear to you?
I see none such. I only tell you of the one I have seen, the
loving one who desires to help more than anything else in the
world. Because of his help the whole stream changes, a new
life, a new force comes in. It is only that what I would
leave you is that his humility and understanding is greater
than any other I have come to contact.
31.
(Q) Is there any advice or guidance for those who are
to assist and direct and help to expand my father's psychic
work?
(A) Do what you can to be that instrument through which his
strength may be directed. I would say very definitely, if
you want to help him, make it possible for him to have peace
of mind during this new change that comes upon him. Let him,
for mercy's sake, live without the feeling that he owes to
you all anything in this way and that. If you are interested
in his sincerity and your own sincerity is good and
sufficiently right for him, then you will infuse the spirit
of understanding to those whom he has been helpful to.
Help him to gain a STRENGTH; he needs a bodily strength; he
needs a physical strength; he needs a little peace of mind,
that he may go out and come back and better possess himself;
and give him your trust, and if some new life come in do not
run away from the old understanding that has helped you but
on to the new light, and let it make the knowledge more
valuable to you. But SHOW your appreciation. That is all
I have to say to you. But give to him the rock of security;
that is, do not seek help for your own ego always; follow his
example, and do not seek for yourself alone; let it be in
love and security for him, for all he has done for you along
the road to God-Consciousness. That is the only way you can
help.
32.
(Q) What can you tell us of the future possibilities in
the organization work?
(A) Excellent, excellent! but the first needs are to find
out the interested ones, and let them be interested from the
UNIVERSAL viewpoint - not for self. Do not come to him, nor
let others come to him, seeking for themselves expression of
their own ego, for in this way you would destroy him. From
a small growth great things can be built up, but first let
him feel the security. It is beautiful, this undemanding
work of his; let each of you be likewise. With the security
within his heart, this man can speak the fundamental truths
with a new force. So help him, do not hinder him. Give to
him sincerity, by being sincere yourself.
33.
(Q) Is there a special significance to this meeting
between you and my father?
(A) My child, have you not lived long enough to know that
there is day and there is night, because there was day? And
there is nothing you do today that does not throw the shadow
on yesterday and cause the reactions of tomorrow! Do you
think there is anything in the universe that is not moving
in association around and about you? You have met that that
a greater good may be done.
34.
(Q) Is there a message to anyone present to help them?
(A) What more can I say that I have said? What more is
there anyone can say? Be to yourself a law of security, so
that you will be a law of security in the face of your
universal God, so that the children coming into your life
can be born without fear. Be to your daily hour yourself.
DARE to be yourself. Dare, my friend, to speak the truth
and be yourself. And if you be true to yourself and work
out your own pattern, you will not have time to find flaws
in your neighbor's pattern, for you will see yourself with
true vision. And when you call children into being, call
them into being without fear, and to those who are coming
towards that moment when the great awakening is coming.
Glorify God every moment, for you are all a part of His
great will and understanding, and within each is that voice
- that eternal voice that calls to you in every moment, "Do
that that is true," and if you do that then all that happens
happens right.
And I thank you, my friend, for this opportunity to speak
with you. May the good Lord in His infinite mercy, Lord of
all the universe, inspire and bless you and keep you.
So be it.
