(Q) The dream as follows: [
136] and I out with a crowd
who were more or less riotous, although they were the right
people socially and wealthy. The girls pretty and nice but
boisterous from liquor. Then it seemed I should go to Temple
and I made up my mind to go. We, [
136] and I, were sitting
at a table and Horace Block, a wealthy young broker and
member of our set, passed us and said, 'See him, he is
heir to a million.' I seemed disgusted, yet flattered.
We could have been in a restaurant at the time, or in Temple
or Church. Either one or both at the same time. The whole
crowd decided to go to Temple and we started. They,
particularly the girls, still carrying on. I said, to be
funny, yet with something of seriousness, 'Look how they're
going into Temple.' Laughingly they went into the back
entrance. I saw a golf club strike a golf ball into muddy
water. [
136] and I rushed for the front entrance of the
Temple, entered through the large arched gateway, I pulled
her by the hand, and once in looked for my mother. We
thought we saw her but on approach to the pew found we were
mistaken. Then we sat down in another pew and found my
mother next to us. The organ was playing, there was peace,
and we were contented." Please explain in detail every phase
of this; that is, golf club, ball, going into Temple
backward, at the back entrance, by others, mistaken
identity of my mother, etc.
(A) In this we find many emblematical conditions that exist
in the mental development of the entity and those surrounding
same at the present time, and with the light and insight
as has already been seen and given in those leading up to
these conditions, one should well be able to understand the
conditions as are made manifest through this approach of the
training of the mental forces toward the action of the
physical body, as relating to individuals, individual action,
individual's approach to the various phases of the phenomena
of life's existence and the manifestation of same through the
various spheres of activity as are shown and manifested at
this time. In this, do not separate the two, for we find the
physical forces, and that of the mate, joined in their search
for that which is right, and with the surrounding elements we
find each partaking, in a manner, of those conditions, yet
adverse in the way the others, though of the correct in
social way peoples, yet their manner of approach and of
acceptance of conditions seems adverse to the individuals.
Hence the aloofness as is felt towards the conditions
existent. In the approach then, the necessity of the
physical having that spiritual insight and training necessary
for the development of the mind, and the desire to approach
same, even though there is light made as to how those who
have acted in the boisterous manner, and in the manner that
is not acceptable in the mind of the individual towards those
precepts. This would be given forth from same, yet we find
these come into this, as is shown in, as it might be, food
for the spiritual, as the restaurant might represent the food
for the physical conditions existent in the body. One as
necessary to the well-being of the physical, spiritual and
mental forces of the body as the other for the physical
conditions of the body. As is seen in the club and golf,
as given before, these necessary in a manner to the physical
well being of the physical body, in that form of exercise
necessary, and with the knocking of same into muddy water,
showing how that these exercises would prevent that muddling,
as it were, or that condition that would make aggravating
conditions existent in the life become as naught, same as
the approach to the Temple would give to each and every
condition, showing conditions necessary to assist in the
understanding of spiritual welfare of the entity. The
entering in and again the approach and seeking of the mother,
and the mother's company in same, showing how that how oft
has the well-being of the spiritual side of life been drawn
through those channels from the mother, and the desire of
same that the entity approach same. Hence the seeking out,
as is seen in this, and the approach to other position in
same, and lo, the mother, the companion, the one that is
given often the position necessary for the individual and
to the well-being of spiritual, mental and physical
conditions, is there, ready, awaiting.
Weigh, then, all these well, in the light of those conditions
as have been given in others, for this we see the opening
of a grand, broader, greater, larger field of vision of all
conditions as pertain to the well-being in the physical,
mental, spiritual and financial conditions as existent in a
physical life. Follow close in those precepts as have been
given, seeking first the Kingdom that lies within, and all
things shall be added unto you.
