(Q) Dream regarding dark ball - earth and coming and going
therefrom. What in the way and manner of the Entity
prevented the body from gaining a clearer understanding of
this vision? Correlate this vision with the study this
entity is making of the book "Tertium Organum." [
4/21/25 He
referred Miss [
2717] for a Life Rdg., saying that she
introduced him to the book 'Tertium Organum' by Ouspensky:
"All along I have been trying to understand this phase of
your criticism of my manuscript (based on [
3744] series)...
[See
900-59 on
4/13/25, etc.] Now, why did she just show me
this book?"]
(A) To give the full and complete relation and co-relation
[correlation] of this, with the information and theses as
given in book, would be to give a full synopsis of the
information and the co-relation of impressions as given on
the mind and body of [
900]. The difficulty in obtaining the
full impression and bringing same again to consciousness was
and is the lack of being in that position to digest all as
given in book, for the various sketches as have impressed the
mental forces of the body, [
900], are those that are nearer
co-related with information as has been gained through
psychic forces. As the book is the theories of Ouspensky on
the psychic force manifested in the material world, then the
co-relation of same becomes a matter of digesting or
understanding from the various conditions, experiences of
body, mind, [
900], as related to that which has become in
part a part and parcel, or portion of the mind, and able of
digesting. Then the passing to and from the earth's plane,
as seen, signifying the changes and developments that come
from time to time. These and that explanation, with that as
given, will be understood and able of digesting as
developments come to the mental forces of the body [
900], for
the experience, the conditions through which this information
is available, one must be in that position to feel, know and
understand, without, as it were, being able to know from what
sources the understanding has come.
(Q) Explain the information or knowledge of creation, or
fourth dimension life, this vision seemed to try to bring the
entity.
(A) As the illustration is given in the book of the snail's
vision being that of the two-dimension, then the same to man
when man, with the flexible mind of the body, becomes to that
state wherein the body takes on the vision of the fourth
dimension. Fourth dimension then being that condition as is
reached wherein physical objects are spiritually understood,
spiritual objects are physically understood, and able of
experience. These become hard questions to the single track
mind, or two track mind, but to the full rounded out
individual become understandable conditions, to the mental
processes of the well rounded mind. In this condition then
does the individual reach its abilities of development in the
planes as experienced in the advances from the earth's plane,
coming then in that position of being able to have height,
breadth, depth, thickness, and with all without space.
(Q) Vision of my grandmother in distress. Did this vision
imply that the Entity had in some manner of study or
otherwise caused distress to the Spiritual Forces of the
Grandmother? How and why?
(A) Rather to the spiritual forces of the entity, [
900], for
the spiritual forces only give manifestation to that plane in
which the same plane may be manifested. Rather that
awakening in the mental forces, of the extenuation as it
was of the fourth dimension in the physical plane, and as
the body, [
900] awakens, and does awaken to the elements of
such conditions, the attractions become in such a nature as
the physical conditions may be made manifest in the life and
mind of the entity, for as is seen in how that the forces as
is manifested to the entity in the spiritual guide, in
father, may be again through certain laws made manifest in
the physical world, so the same conditions relating to all
that come under the trend of the superconscious forces of
the individual. Hence, as we see in that study as is given
from Confuscius [Confucius] in the spiritual law of the
ancestor may be made manifest in the spiritual environment
and the physical forces of the generations as they pass, so
as in this vision the entity gains the insight into that
which brings the depression to the spiritual forces of the
physical beings, the spiritual entities.
(Q) Were the Spirit Forces or mental forces of the Spirit
Entity seen in this vision making an effort to send some
message to the body [
900]?
(A) This is given in that just given. The spiritual force
as is given here is merely the manifestation, as has been
outlined, in how the change is made.
(Q) The words she said were: "You do not want ME to live.
Your mother doesn't want me to live." What thought or
message do these words mean to imply?
(A) That there are conditions that are felt in the material
world that would make under existing physical conditions
detrimental forces in the body, yet the spiritual forces and
environs seek to have the opportunity, under the trail as it
were of existent conditions, the ability to manifest again in
the material forces. These are well understood by the mind
of [
900].
(Q) The body [
900] has received guidance from his Spiritual
Guide, his Father. May he also receive guidance or
communication with other Spirit Entities, such as that of his
Grandmother?
(A) May receive from all whom the entity would seek
guidance, when placing self in that position wherein he may
gain access to that knowledge that may be implied, given or
meted out from those sources.
(Q) To what does the STILL SMALL VOICE answer "All's Well."?
Does this refer to the Spiritual Entity or to the body [
900]?
(A) To the spiritual entity that must answer within to the
physical entity, [
900], for the entity must wake to the
realization that "the spirit beareth witness with my spirit"
and the answer comes from within, and must ever come from
within. Not in the thunder, not in the whirlwind, not in the
storm, nor any of the mighty ravings, as it were, of nature,
whether of the material forces or of the mental ravings that
may shadow or be over shadowed, but ever the still small
voice that answers to self, as was given.
(Q) As is before you, the mind of [
900] now understands a
little better the process and means of thought communications
between a spiritual Entity and an Entity on earth's plane.
Explain this further in the light of the third and fourth
dimension. Is every thought - say in prayer, for example,
directed to or of a loved one who has passed from earth's
plane by the body [
900] received and understood by that
Entity in the Spirit plane?
(A) This must not be answered from here, for these reach to
the realms of the superconscious forces, and each individual
awakens to these developments in their individual self and
should not be hampered, tied, wedged in by the thoughts and
expressions of those through a material force.
(Q) To What extent does a fourth and fifth dimension Entity
guide, control, or influence affairs of the earth?
(A) Just as much as the individual will allow same,
depending upon the individual having reached the plane
wherein they may attain, gain or see, understand the plane
wherein such an entity having reached that plane may
communicate, give force, give enlightenment, give
understanding to the one of a lower dimension, for as has
been given, hard for one of one faith to understand the
feelings, the intent, of one of another faith, for while each
intent may be in the manner to the best of their knowledge
and belief, it does not affect the real status of conditions
as they really exist in the various spheres, save as their
co-relation [they have correlation?] have one with the other.
(Q) Dream of Market will rally for 3 days. As given, Market
rallied for 3 days, but continued to rally - to group in
constructive bull market fashion. Explain this in
correlation to this dream of just "3 days".
(A) In the "3 days" we have the rallying from individual
sources. After three days the general trend of all. As
would be illustrated in this: We have individual
commodities, individual stocks, rallying in the period, with
the general trend after three days. Hence the upward trend
for three days before the general trend begins.
(Q) Conclusion - The entity [
900] as you see before you, is
struggling to gain the knowledge of the Universal Forces and
to properly apply that knowledge. Tell the Entity how he may
better act to tread in that righteous path that will bring to
him, the Entity, the wisdom he seeks. The entity now alludes
to the definite in his present life.
(A) In the definite manner, keep in that way as has been
set, for as has been given, there be no individual conditions
to debar from the thought or action, save in the intent and
purpose, and the entity only needs to keep in that straight
and narrow way as the entity has set for self. There be only
those specifics of knowing to make self right, not crowd same
on other individuals, for "By their fruits ye shall know
them."
(Q) The Entity, [
900], for example feels he understands and
can explain many teachings and parables given in the Bible,
which were given by Jesus. However, many who claim to follow
Jesus wave his interpretations aside as ridiculous or claim
he is giving a Jewish interpretation. Is the Entity properly
interpreting the New Testament, which he is now studying, or
are his critics correct in their criticism? As an example,
the difference in opinion between the Entity [
900] and [
2717]
on divorce as regards: "He who puts aside his wife, save for
fornication, commits adultery." This question relates to the
last line of the reading as given: "If thou love me, keep my
commandments, for I go unto the Father and I dwell in Him and
He in me." Those commandments to-day are subject to various
and all sorts of interpretations. For this reason this
question is asked.
(A) The interpretations and the understandings as have
[been] and are given of the teachings of Jesus are in that
way and manner acceptable unto the mind of [
900]. Hence they
become to the individual the law, for so far as the
individual makes those teachings one in life, manner and way
of living, they become a part of the individual. The
criticism may be from the standpoint of another condition,
for each entity stands in that position as it has attained
through environment, teaching and application in its
individual life. In the special question as given, these
stand in the same manner as is carried farther in the
teachings of the Master, in that as has been given, and the
law of the land wherein these are exercised and understood
become the manner and light in which the individual
understands same. Hence the individual interpretation of
same may be taken advantage of through the civil conditions.
Hence civil laws, spiritual law, material law, are of an
entire different condition, for the individual only gains
that to which it has developed. Then the interpretation as
given by the body, [
900], to the body law. To others as they
view same.
We are through for the present.
