TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the entity, the enquiring mind, [877]; this we have had before.
2. In the general physical forces of the body we find there is at times a reverting to former disturbances, that have made for those conditions as described in physical portions of the body related to the head, the shoulders and the digestive forces.
3. Much of this arises from an anxiety that produces fear in a nature in the activities of the body.
4. Those conditions surrounding, or the necessary arrangements concerning the Sands Point property, are a portion of same.
5. Then, that there may be a clarifying of these situations, this AS a problem presents itself at this time.
6. There have been those injections or those fears at times upon the body, such that there were interferences in the activities of individuals that the entity felt or feared were delaying or putting off activities in the present. These are not wholly unfounded.
7. But if the body (mentally) allows these conditions to grow within self, then they become as hindrances to a consummation of the activities themselves.
8. Then, as there have been and are those rules, regulations, laws, influences that govern the activities of individuals in their relationships with their fellow man, know these:
9. Do all that thou KNOWEST to do in thine own association of ideals with thine OWN ideal, and leave the results, the effects, the ways, the manners of consummation, with those influences or forces that are the means, the ends of thine own individual activity for progressing toward that ideal within thine own activities.
10. These, as we find, then, as related to these individual conditions that surround this sale:
11. Urge those that have been and are in command of the PRESENTING of same to an individual or individual groups concerning same. And that these are needs be, and ONLY in this way and manner - as we find - may these be carried forward in a most satisfactory way and manner.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) Is the North Shore Realty Agency at Flushing, L.I., the one indicated through the readings as a possible agency for the sale?
    (A) As indicated, the North Shore Realty Agency, Flushing, Long Island, is a means, a channel, through which this may be urged or carried through.
14. (Q) What other suggestions or help can I offer Mr. Joseph Rubenfeld of the North Shore Realty Agency that will assist him in making contacts for this sale?
    (A) Not so much that there is the necessity of the material nature, but that there are the emergencies. This would be the thought. Then those that are in the position, those that are drawn to same by the manner in which these are presented - not only as to the location but the surroundings, the environments, and all that goes with same.
15. (Q) I seek any spiritual and mental guidance that may be given me at this time.
    (A) Hold fast to that thou hast purposed in thine inner self. Know, even as that which is facing thine own associations and activities, no emergency in a material way or manner may arise that may not find its counterpart in a spiritual inspiration.
    For his promises are sure. And while offences come, yet with each and every fear there IS that from within, by thine associations of self in thine mental self, that may quiet the troubled mind - even as He quelled the tempest of the sea.
    And as we seek, we find. As we knock, we are heard. If we are timid, if we are fearful, if we are overcautious in our giving out that hope which has sustained our own selves, then we grow weaker and more fearful ourselves. This is a spiritual law. For in Him is STRENGTH, is MIGHT! Not of ourselves, but strength in Him, through Him.
    Fear not! For He will guide, direct those that seek at all times to do His biddings. KNOW, ever, "Not my way but Thine, O Lord." Then not continually, "Do this for me, for that strength I may have." HE knoweth thy needs! He knoweth thy weaknesses and thy shortcomings! Do ALL thou knowest to do, in body, in mind; leave the increase with Him. For in Him we live, we move and have our being. Then, we should not attempt to direct, other than "Love the Lord, keep His ways; for He will abide with thee."
16. We are through.
    [After Mrs. Cayce had started giving the suggestion for him to wake up, this came:]
17. Well, because of the association of the body, that this message - as from George the 5th (George V) be given to many of those of his beloved peoples at this troublesome period:
18. Rely more upon those counsels of those in the position of overlord over the South African land, for those settlements with those that make for turmoils in Egypt.
19. We are through.
