(Q) Then came a bad quarrel with [
137]. He seemed
interested in some hobby that related to moving pictures,
and changed into the player piano. I joined with him to
help him in his work and hobby, finding the music rolls in
his piano for him. Then we turned to my piano, and the roll
seemed not to work right. [
137], instead of helping me fix
it, purposely unrolled it further, until the whole thing was
broken. This angered me, and I asked him why he did this to
me when I had acted so differently to him. He laughed at
me, and goaded to desperation, I struck him. [
137] laughed
more. My mother entered, and I was miserable and everything
went into the dumps. The scene took place in our old 101
Street home.
(A) In this we see there is presented, in this emblematical
way, conditions that have been going on in the mind of each
entity, in a way and manner. As is seen, each entity has its
individual mind, or mental hobby, and each desire the other
be interested in same. As the entity sees self attempting to
interest self in the hobby of the other, which becomes self's
own hobby in turn, and sees that this then is turned into
that of the condition that brings about dissension and
trouble, through willful condition on [in] regard the other
individual, or brother, then the lesson, as we see, is: Each
individual gains their own intent and purpose through that
of the submission of the will to those laws as have been
gained an understanding of by the entity, and as far as same
interests, or is understood by the other, these may be
brought to a unison of purpose, for as is seen, understood,
by the entity, all is of a oneness of purpose and intent, the
CHANGE being the MANNER or WAY of PRESENTING THAT FORCE AS IS
WAVERED BY THAT THROUGH WHICH THE FORCE IS MANIFESTING.
Then, as is seen, the lesson the entity should gain:
No matter what would be the troubles that would arise, the
entity should be as much interested in the brother's hobby as
the entity expects brother to be interested in own hobby, and
as is seen, because there becomes the mis-understanding by
the condition that would arise from one not understanding the
other, and the entrance of an individual that would bring the
self reproach upon self, then there would be seen as to how
the entity should conduct self. Not as a premonition is this
given, of impending falling out; rather that as how each may
understand the other better. Such a lesson should be gained
from these, for they are for the edification of each.
(Q) Then I saw the picture of a R.R. train at the top of a
funny page of a newspaper. It seemed in connection with
street car lines, etc. Like the lights before Ben Block on
his quotation board it was in many colors. It seemed to have
some reference to Cayce and stocks.
(A) This again the presentation to the mind of that being
attempted to be correlated in the physical forces, and now
being correlated in the subconscious forces, gaining then to
the mind of the mental body that of the reasoning as obtained
in the subconscious and the physical, and a projection again
of those conditions as relate to the valuation of railroad
stocks, of street car stocks, of ANY stocks upon which the
entity may obtain information concerning same, whether of
that from psychic forces, Cayce, or that from physical
forces, Ben Block, the action on same must take place THROUGH
THE INDIVIDUAL'S APPLICATION OF SAME.
(Q) I was visiting Mr. & Mrs. Herrman over on East 95th St.
with my mother. These two are the parents of Gaston Herrman
whom I knew in my college days. He was not at home. I
introduced there a simplified edition of a book on Hudson
Motors. They took it and gave me a more complicated edition
and a longer one, which I started to read. However, they
seemed bored with me, or for some reason asked us to leave,
and we went out.
(A) Again we see, in a more definite manner there is given
in this, as is seen, the recognition of the individual seeing
those persons whom were known in the study days, and whom
they recognized as one of a studious nature. Then, that as
is presented in the study of that stock in which the entity
is to be, and is, interested, on account of physical
conditions, on account of interest in same, there is seen
that the entity, [
900] should study all of the surrounding
elements as is concerned with same, that the conditions as
arise, by being thrown out, cast out, does not cause self to
lose much money in same, for the study of same is as to
understand how to use that information as obtained for self,
whether from subconscious forces or from physical aspects,
for as is seen and understood by entity, the action of same
is the spirit force of any given stock, see? for as is seen
in the connection with the rest of this, the entity, after
being ejected, or asked to leave, upon finding that the
lesson or book is left, returns for same, and as the
conversation turns, it seems there is the desire not only
for self but of many others of the family, socially, to be
associated with these individuals.
Then, the study of this is that as the entity understands how
these may be applied (the lessons concerning the stocks,
see?), then these may be made more acceptable to all, even of
other individuals, and of those directly interested in same.
Then, study to show self able, capable, of making application
of the lesson learned.
We are through.

2/13/26 EC's letter to Mr. [
779]: "It is a wonderful thing
to feel that you have been the means of helping a man, in the
position and with such a mind as [
900], to find Christ. It
isn't a thing you can tell other people. They won't ever
understand you! Oh, some do, I suppose; but I believe,
honestly and truly, it's just as great a work as is being
done by anyone, and I only pray God will give me the health
and strength, and keep me in that purpose of doing good in
trying to help others to find Christ."
