The entity then was among those of the venturesome type, as
may be called in the present. For, in the name Guelliespi,
the entity was among those of the group that with Colombo
made the second of the voyages to the new land, or to the
settlings in the land in which the entity now finds the
greater activities; making for, throughout the experience,
that of a journeying here, journeying there, and making for
that of being among the first of the drawings with Vespucii.
The entity acted in what is NOW the southern portions of the
land of the present sojourn, during the experience making for
mental and material gains. For, as may be seen in the
present, though making for associations and conditions that
may be questioned in some directions, it makes for the
satisfying of desires, relationships with others that become
the more active in the experiences of those about the entity.
These, as indicated from those sojourns in the Uranian
influence, may be termed or turned to very good or very bad;
dependent upon the purposes, the desires, the basis for which
the entity in its inner self makes for such activity in the
material experience. Not as burning or burying or disdaining
the inner conscience or the promptings of self, but as the
fulfilling of that as would be in associations with its
greater ideals in the experiences of relationships with the
individuals, the fellow man, the Maker, the Creative Forces
within the earth.
Before this we find the entity was in that land now known
as the Egyptian, during those periods when there were the
turmoils and strifes that had arisen from the rebelling
forces after the banishment of the Priest and with the
beginnings of the entering in of those from the isles of
the sea, or those from the Atlantean land. It was when
those changes came about through the activities with the
correlating of those in the Indian, the Mongolian, the
Caucasian, the Incan, and even in what may be called the
descendants from Mu or Lemuria. These the entity aided in
gathering those tenets in the various forms as to the
activities and associations; and the entity's interests then
were in the means of communications with those of many lands
and those activities that made it not only possible for the
spiritual upbuild but the mental and commercial associations.
The entity made for advancement in the material associations
in that experience, and brought for many of those through
such activities the closer relationships in same.
And in the present from that experience the entity's
associations or directions with, or investments in, airways,
air lines, will make for the experience that may bring to the
entity the greater satisfaction, the greater endeavors and
activities in the present experience.
Before that we find the entity was in that called the
Atlantean land, in those periods when there were the
beginnings of the activities of the sons of Belial and
those of the Law of One.
The entity then was among those peoples that were of the Law
of One, yet it was set upon because of being in the position
of power - being the SON of the ruler, or Ajax, and in the
name then Elmeur. The entity, as the Prince of the Poseidian
land, was set upon by the sons of Belial to make for those
activities that would bring the desecrating of the Temple of
the Law of One; through those influences of the daughters of
the sons of Belial.
And these made for activities that brought to the experience
of the entity that as would be called in the present of
making relationships and activities that brought dissensions,
discouragements, and the attempts first to destroy the own
self, the own life.
And the experiences in the present with those of the opposite
sex have brought much of like experiences where attempts in
this or that direction have been made. For the alterations,
the phases of experiences of individuals have made for
distresses; yet at times enlightenment and helpful
experiences when the real activities were meted out.
As to the abilities of the entity in the present, then, and
that to which it may attain, and how:
Many are the abilities, as indicated from the experiences
and the positions of the entity in its relationships to its
fellow man. For ever is it written that many individuals,
of groups, of masses, of all status of the relationships in
the material world WILL be influenced, ARE influenced, by the
words and the activities of the entity. And this the entity
must answer in self; thou ART thy brother's keeper.
As to the abilities, those things that pertain to the
relationships of exchange between the groups and of masses in
lands that are adjacent and are to the material aspects far
apart in their activities are of interest; especially those
that will deal with communicating lines, as either in the
areoplane or communicative lines or ship lines. Any of the
communications that have to do with groups that the entity is
associated with will bring the greater material returns,
giving the OPPORTUNITY for the mental abilities of the entity
to express itself in those directions as indicated that must
be met by every soul in its sojourn through materiality. For
again and again one must meet self, and be able more and more
to stand aside and watch self and its relations and its
dealings with its fellow man pass by. For we meet ourselves.
And in these activities may the entity make for the greater
material and mental and spiritual development, that of meting
to its fellow man in such relationships that as it would have
done unto it.
Ready for questions.
(Q) What do you suggest would be best for me to do regarding
my family relations?
(A) These, as has been indicated, are those things that you
are meeting in thine own self and thine own dealings with thy
fellow man and thy relationships with thy fellow man. As to
others, and those that have that position where there are
obligations, duties to self and to others, meet same. As ye
would have them do to you, do ye even so to them.
(Q) How long will this present situation last?
(A) That depends upon some phases and what the self does
about it. It is not a condition, not a position that makes a
change; it's what individuals do ABOUT it!
(Q) I plan to undertake the establishment of a cabaret. Do
you find this would be advantageous?
(A) Be very good; provided this has to do - or the greater
portion - with many of the associations that are the
abilities of the entity; that will be the greater in those
of communication relations. As for the cabaret and its
activities, if these are kept in accord with the proper
activities so that they are not questioned, well. If these
bring those things that are questionable in thine own
experience, or in the experience of thy fellow man, then not
so well. For remember, there have been questionings on the
part of others as concerning thy activities. Let not thy
words of mouth nor thy activities bespeak other than in
accordance with that which is CONSTRUCTIVE in the experience
of others.
(Q) May I expect financial assistance from my friend who has
offered me help in the past?
(A) You may.
(Q) What specific connections would you suggest regarding
communications?
(A) American Airways, or those of the Italian lines. Either
of these.
(Q) In what capacity?
(A) As an investor, or as one that would - well, he would
eventually be a director!
(Q) Is my son in the right environment, and am I having the
proper influence on him?
(A) This is rather a large order of a question! The
environment in which he finds himself, the son, is a part of
thine own making, is it not? Then, that which thou doest
towards making for these to become or to be the molding
forces in the experience of the entity, may be much of thine
own doing or undoing. Each soul must meet its own self. Let
thy words as counsel, as advice, be in keeping with that
which will be constructive in the experience of thy son, and
ye will see he will not bring that which will be questioned
by others.
Very good environment!
(Q) Would you advise that the entity enter some relation
with the communications in preference to the cabaret
enterprise, or both?
(A) It may be a means through which there may eventually
come growth. Begin with the investments in the
communications and let this be the latter portion of thy
material activity.
Keep first, as indicated, in the position of knowing thine
ideal within thyself. Be thou sincere. Be thou true to
thine own inner self. KNOW ye must meet yourself. For the
manifestations in the earth of man's activity are the inner
man's concept of its Creator, as it deals with its fellow
man. And each soul must meet these, materially, mentally,
spiritually.
We are through for the present.
