(Q) "Tuesday morning, June 9, 1925. It seems I was married
to [
4353] [former gentile girl friend] and my family was
shocked. Then certain friends at first congratulated me and
were glad, then became angry at something. It seemed to be
Margaret R. Then later that passed and was adjusted. Then
I was in a store, my store, or of which I was buyer. Ladies
were in buying coats and we were doing a good business.
Myron, my cousin, came in to buy. Told me he wanted to spend
about forty-five dollars and I showed him a coat for that.
Walking along the floor I remarked at the fine business I
certainly had, but was going home to another business, now
that I was married. Then I started to play croquet and a
professor played with me. I went first and failed to put
the ball through the first two wickets. It seemed I had
to put two balls through, one through the first, then both
through the second, all in one shot. I failed and tried
again, failed and tried again. The third time the shot
remained and the professor coming for his turn said, 'I'm
going to have a cinch on you now.'"
(A) In this we find there entering some new phases of the
development of the mental forces as co-relate [correlate]
with the conscious mind and conditions and thoughts are
co-related in the conditions seen. As we find, this then
emblematical in points and in the different phases as are
seen in the dream. Many are to be interpreted by the
individual, rather than through the channels, yet the
application may be made through either.
In the first portion then, we find that of the purely
conscious condition, co-relating with results that would
have gone with such conditions. This, then, reasoning of
a physical condition from the subconscious or psychological
viewpoint.
In the second portion, we find the store and the business
representing the change of thought along certain given lines,
as will [be] and is developing in the entity. Hence a
projection from subconscious to the conscious forces in
dream.
In the next we find, with numbers and dollars and cents
showing the improvement as is to come, and does come, is
coming, now, to the individual through personal efforts along
the various channels as do present, are presenting and will
be presented to the body.
In the latter portion we find a projection of conditions
existing from one conscious mind to another conscious mind.
The action of an individual in action giving thought to the
individual, and those conditions under which the individual
labors being projected to the mind and the subconscious
forces of the body, [
900]. Then, we have the change or the
approach to that of telepathic forces being exemplified in
the body. Study these well, for there is a great field and
channel through which these may work.
The lessons then are as these: Nothing to be given, save as
is the interpretation and application of individual's self
through these conditions as may arise. Rather the study of
the phenomena than of results, for the results will speak for
themselves. The phenomena a manifestation to be studied and
how to approach same will come in others, as we shall see.
Ready for the next.
(Q) "Tuesday morning, June 11, I saw a string of pearls,
then words, "Why throw pearls?"
(A) Pearls the emblematical condition of tears as has been
seen by the entity, and the representation of sorrow in
someone whom the entity has contacted. This has already
passed. The "Why throw pearls," why give out that that will
cause the condition to arise (it is of tears, see?) when the
strongest, ennobling forces are not found in tears, yet ever
remembering, weep with those who weep, rejoice with those who
do rejoice.
(Q) "Friday morning, June 12, on train from White Sulphur
Springs to New York, was riding with [
136] and other girls
on train. A blonde and a brunette were discussing affairs
of which I used to be familiar with, now sort of an outsider.
I sort of smiled, half interestedly; as we detrained they
sang in my ear some sort of song about getting children by
the score. Then I went into a pool room where four men were
playing. A stout dictatorial player was showing his partner,
who had a bandaged hand, how to make his shot. The man made
his play and missed the pocket. 'You hit the ball too low,'
said the stout man tersely. 'How do you hit a ball if not
low?' retorted the other. I left the room."
(A) This again we find co-relating of the physical
conditions as are being acted upon by the subconscious
forces, giving then rather again this lesson: That the
development of mental and of the ability to co-relate
conditions becomes a portion of the living, and that with
the touch of any condition that surrounds certain
environments, that line of thought and endeavor comes to be
acted upon by the subconscious forces, for the conscious
mind feeds that which the subconscious digests in the
sleeping or unconscious condition. Hence the necessity of
the body, mind, keeping in that line wherein the highest,
the noblest, the greater, thoughts will control, rule, both
waking and sleeping state, for should the mind, as is heard
in conversation, gain those conditions and follow those
channels, then the same is digested or made a portion of the
inner being of entity in digesting of same. In the same as
is seen in the pool room. These then again emblematical
conditions to be studied and pondered, and through such
phenomena the entity gains that knowledge necessary for the
highest and noblest development for the entity, for as the
entity sees in weighing these conditions as have been
projected in the subconscious forces through Urim, with
those when the mind dwelt on other subjects, the relations
then and the lessons are drawn to a more definite line. As
these are seen then, follow in those injunctions as have
been given for the body. Do that. Ready for the next.
(Q) "Saturday morning in bed at home ..., Deal, N.J., [
136],
Ma and I were in the woods or field. [
136] squatted on the
ground, when suddenly an old man called to her. As we all
looked his way, saw him grinning and pointing to an ugly
snake, with outstretched head. Ma, [
136] and I started to
run madly, panic stricken. We leaped to other side of hill.
I saw my mother zigzag, advising me to do the same. I
started to and turned to also advise [
136]. She was behind.
It seemed we arrived safe."
(A) Again that injunction to follow in the advice as would
be and is given through the mother. As is seen in
emblematical condition of snake, those who would harm do so
in the underhand manner, and the tact as is given through
advice of mother shows the manner in which the subconscious
forces gathers that higher condition of those who would
protect under whatever condition that may arise. Then the
advice and counsel as would be given in this: There has
come the time when there should be the close counsel with
the mother [Mrs. [
106]] as regarding conditions that are to
arise. As to when these shall be, will be seen, we see,
after someone's (an old man's) visit to the woods. Will
occur on sixteenth (16th) day of August.
Then let the counsel be before that time and heed well the
advice as would be given.
We are through.
