(Q) Sunday Morning, Oct. 24, 1926. "Study to get the
settings of your reincarnation periods."
(A) In this there is given that injunction from the
subconscious to the body conscious mind, that of the
warning or the injunction as to how the entity may make
those of the truths given in the writing more in keeping
with those conditions that will better present to those
whom would study same conditions as may be studied - for, as
is seen, in gaining truth man must consider those of these
conditions, as how the man may gather the import: To whom
the word is spoken, from whom the word comes, how, when,
where, and under what circumstance. As is seen in these,
as the reference given, in that of the Grecian may be found
in the description of Trojan Wars by Iliad, and of the
Israelite or the Jewish in that of Hezekiah, Nehemiah,
Ezekiel, from the Biblical writings, or from the return of
Israel from Assyria, or that portion as has been described
by the various writers of ancient Persia, ancient Palestine,
see? Josephus - picking portions. These give descriptions
of the period, the labors, the mode of warfare, of
communication, and much of the trend of thought.
In the Egyptian, most will be gained through those sources
as supply the first information, for only the exact records
have not yet been made public, or in such manner as will give
the correct condition or position of the peoples during that
period - for this period we find following the conquering of
the Egyptian country by the peoples of the north or hill
country, and the entity then among those who were the learned
of the conquered people. The people coming in, or the hills
people, using the ways of warfare in that of the sling, and
of those projections as were fastened to beasts and turning
beasts loose on the people, who were TRAINED ANIMALS to
destroy the foes or enemies of the invaders - and, as is
later seen, there becomes much of this same training in the
Egyptian hill country, in which animals - bulls, bear, and
the leopard, and the hawk, are trained to give the warfare
against peoples that would give war to these groups.
The modes of transportation were the end of the
lighter-than-air crafts, the floating of wood or timbers in
rafts and forms of boats, and of beasts of burden, and of
afoot - being the war channels, see? and modes of
transportation. Little of carriages, or wagons, or slides,
had then been introduced by the invaders. The Egyptian
presenting a different standard. These were then, when
conquered, not a warlike people - one not prepared for
defense or of a way of defending self. Weapons only used in
agriculture and in building, and these presenting the only
modes of defense by the peoples during that period. Those of
transportation being by that of the wheel and of the ox, and
the beasts that were trained as domestic for the service of
agriculture and of building, see? Hence we see from this
condition the OUTGROWTH of the conditions presenting
themselves in this land when the hill or SOUTH country of
Egyptian peoples again came to power. This rather as proofs
or conditions to be drawn upon, than of conditions as
presented at the period the entity sojourned there.
(Q) What were their amusements, chief occupation, and
national, family and individual interests?
(A) As has been given. This as has been given outlines
those conditions of the now Egyptian country - agriculture
and the buildings. That, as is seen, represented the whole
of conditions to the people at the period when they were
conquered, see? AFTERWARDS these show, as has been
presented, this great change as comes, as the conqueror
dies and the younger ruler comes to the position as
sovereign. Then the change comes in presenting the various
forms of conditions as brought in from the foreign - or the
conquerors bring - and a combination of conditions of the
peoples of the period. The unearthing of the various
tablets, various conditions, or as would be termed
archeology, was to the people of that period as much of a
science as it is to-day - 1926, see? and the buildings and
the various conditions represented more of the national life
than these conditions represent to-day.
In the Israel, or the return, this is laid out very
emphatically, very distinctly, in references as are seen in
that of the Nehemiah, Ezra, Hezekiah, and the various
writers of that period, see? Just as those are seen in the
Grecian when the various developments of the athletic
conditions enter in, see?
These only as are seen in the references in the book may be
given as references, but not too much dwelling upon the
periods of the day, also the lesson or truth as would be
given would be lost sight of. Just sufficient references
made that one may know the entity speaks in the manner of one
knowing the conditions, see?
We are through for the present.
