TEXT

1. [900]: You will have before you the body, the mind, and associations, financial, of [900], present in this room. In the first part of the reading you will give a financial reading, answering the questions asked, and giving advice as to the financial procedure of this entity. In the second part of the reading you will give the interpretation and the lessons to be gained from the dreams which I will give you, and you will answer questions regarding these dreams that I will give you, and their dates.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [900]. This we have had here before. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) It has been given that this body at the age of thirty-five would have much of this world's goods, and the means by which this would be obtained would be of a watery nature. Is this body operating along those lines as to bring fulfillment?
   (A) In this connection we have many various conditions as respecting the entity to be considered. The giving of the information as respecting much finance in the hands of the entity, the individual, is as in respect to those conditions as have been builded in the entity's environs, as the entity; in the present plane there has been set those conditions in motion, and the study, the mental development of the entity has furthered those conditions to bring this to pass. There are those elements, those conditions, as are in the mental faculties of the entity that, set in motion, will bring the influence from peoples associated, and across large bodies of water, about large bodies of water. When these are in motion, there will be much of this world's goods brought to the entity through this channel, as well as there will be those dealings in conditions as have to do with water and those elements as go to make up physical conditions respecting large bodies of water. The entity is, then, in that line, that endeavor, to bring these conditions to pass.
4. (Q) Will you advise how I may set these faculties in motion, and what these faculties are, such that I may seek to bring it about?
   (A) In the writings of the entity, and the people whom this will influence, for the influence in the lives of those that have to do with conditions respecting shipping, respecting ports, respecting foreign governments, and through this channel both conditions will arise that bring large volumes of money to the hands of the entity, [900]. This, as we see, should begin in its action (under present conditions) in 27 and 28, see?
5. (Q) The writing I understand, the shipping - not yet.
   (A) Those individuals who will be most interested in that written will be those who are interested in shipping, and in ships and ports and exchange. The association thus brought in the physical manner will bring to the entity those opportunities for the gaining of large quantities of money. See?
6. (Q) In other words, press onward in the writing now engaged in.
   (A) Press onward.
7. (Q) The dreams, last night in the Pinewood Hotel, Room 104. The first one about Lauer putting [137] and I out of the ship's cabin, and it seemed I might have some trouble in present association.
   (A) This, as is seen, that Lauer will approach the body and the brother as respecting certain conditions regarding ships, see? Business relations as respecting the valuation on certain stocks and the handling of same. Giving, then, the individual an opportunity to accept or reject a proposition. Study it before acceptance or rejection.
8. (Q) Some relationship to my brother and sister-in-law, in which I seemed trying to pull myself from the bottom of a tangle, using a rope to pull myself up.
   (A) This as the indication of some discussion in which there will be, as it were, the brother and self pitted against the intent in purpose or mind of the sister-in-law. These, we see, will adjust themselves through the action of the brother.
9. (Q) Saw the names of customers on six sides of the shaving brush. Also the margin book. The Voice: "Spend two afternoons a week visiting personal customers and soliciting business."
   (A) This as a direct challenge to the individual as respecting the intent and purpose as has been voiced within self as concerning this very condition, see? This, then, coming as the answer to same. Act on, then.
10. (Q) Saw Edgar Cayce writing, or sitting at a desk, and advising me, prophesying to me that I was about to face a crisis in my life.
    (A) In this there is seen again that presentation of those forces through which many VARIOUS crises may be met, by the information as is gained through such sources, for, as is seen in desk, in writing, in the premonitions as are given, the at-oneness of the purposes in the entity, and the oneness in the all powerful forces in the Universal Force.
11. (Q) The Voice: "I will help you."
    (A) The answer, as is seen.
12. (Q) Will you advise me about this condition to come with my sister-in-law?
    (A) In this condition the answer should be: It is up to [137], and if he is to allow this condition to prevent his gaining his whole strength and the greater purpose in life, then let the responsibility be upon them who would hinder.
13. (Q) In regards to Lauer, how am I to act?
    (A) As is given, study the offer well. As to what the answer should be will depend upon circumstances and conditions at that time. Not given from here at present.
14. (Q) Advice and counsel as respects to my present and future conditions, including the crisis.
    (A) As has been given, "I will help you." When one has the Lord on HIS side, who should be afraid?
15. (Q) As regards a dream had on the train. Here is a lesson that takes in what people call purely practical side of life. Shortly before the Belaney-Berlenbach fight I dreamed as follows: "Something wrong here. We will have to see Berlenbach about this."
    (A) In every condition wherein there enters that manifested force wherein people call the super-natural (which is super-HUMAN, but the very natural condition), there is ever sought the sign, or the practical application of the condition existent. In this illustration there is seen that as may be termed the practical application in the material conditions as were to come about. A condition in which there is seen some fault in an individual's action towards the right, and, as was seen by the termination of the conditions, this was set, see? for, as is seen, also in this, in the practical application, the purpose of the usage of same enters into how this may be applied to the individuals life, or the individual's actions towards same, for, as seen in this, this may be used directly, and should this be applied in that as a practical condition, usage or good may be obtained, but the purpose is that to which the individual must answer, for should one abuse the gifts of the gods -
16. We are through.
