(Q) [See 900-295, Par. B1] Saturday Morning, January 22,
1927. Saw U.S. Steel sell down to 151 1/2 - 151. The
numbers appeared as lights. I asked the cause of this change
in Steel from the former indicated upgrade to this downward
movement. "The new stock stumped then," came to reply. Then
I saw U.S. Steel New When Issued Stock sell at 110.
(A) In this there is seen that the U.S. Steel Corporation,
with the various changes with the conditions as surround
this particular stock, will sell off near to the 151 1/2 -
152 1/2, coming from the 56, 55, 54, as is seen in the
present indications. With the changes as come about, then,
there will be seen there will be the advance to this to the
164, as is seen, see? selling off, then, through the breaks
as will occur in the changes as will be seen by the much
activity in VARIOUS stocks in this present week - for, as we
see, the big change will occur about the third or fourth of
February, see? As is also indicated by those other
conditions as are seen by the entity in relation to these,
C & O, B & O rail stocks are the ones that will show the
varied change, or the change of sufficient denominations to
be worthwhile to the entities taking on, selling or buying
such, see?
These, then, should be followed out by the entity in the ways
and manners as have been indicated for the entity - for, as
is seen, the entity is gaining, little by little, that
information as has been given to the entity as respecting the
differentiation between a correlation of the body conscious
mind, or of the body mind, or the mentality of the entity,
and that as may be experienced by the full correlation of all
experiences of a cosmic consciousness of the entity through
that of the subconscious forces, and in the full subconscious
forces may be seen the full concentrated effort, action, or
activity of the ENTITY in its entirety - though, as is seen
and experienced by the entity by the study of same, the
subconscious forces of an entity are influenced and directed,
or made a whole of that of the development, or of the body
mental mind's experiences - yet the full truth of EVERY
entity's force is manifested in the cosmic force in its
correlation of all conditions made into one, which becomes
as the truth, and which may be seen in the various
manifestations of the conditions as have been experienced
by this entity, [
900].
So, in these various experiences of the entity as regarding
the physical relation with the various stocks as have been
seen in these that have been given, we find in this - with
the study of same, the entity will find that one - that of
the motor stock, a correlation of body consciousness by the
experience of the mentality of the entity - is wavered, as it
were, by the experience of the subconscious forces of the
entity, and in this manner same is presented to the entity,
that the entity may use same.
As is seen in the experience then of U.S. Steel, that to
which the body conscious has looked to for the correlation of
conditions as heretofore, but - as has been given - those of
other conditions are to be the criterion - yet the body
consciousness, the BODY consciousness, or the mental
consciousness of the entity, wavers in the experience of the
subconscious forces. Hence there is seen the varied
conditions as regarding the various prices, as seen. Selling
off - also there is seen the consternation, or the stumped
condition as experienced by many of the traders, as may be
called - experienced traders as respecting same, and the new
price, the old price - yet the variations are seen by the
correlation of such conditions through the subconscious force
of the entity. Again we find the full subconscious force of
the entity gives to the body conscious mind those experiences
in conditions as respecting two specific stocks, as regarding
those of rails, in which there is seen that there has
occurred in the market - that is, this is the experience of
the conscious mind, and shows how the subconscious forces
have reasoned or built up such conditions - there have been,
and are still existent, specific conditions as regarding
certain combinations, or certain changes as in reference to
these two specific or particular stocks, and the variation as
is seen by the subconscious force gives that these two are
the ones to be followed by the entity to gain, as it were,
the general trend of rails as respecting the market change in
these commodities, or in rail commodities - while, as is
seen, many others are changing also, these, however, in this
particular group, - for, as is seen, there are days, as it
were, in which these stocks - rails - are the active forces
of the conditions during the whole sessions or periods of
change. These, then - these two, acting as the criterion,
and being the ones which the entity should follow to gain the
full concept of how the activity of the mental mind shall
experience those conditions as necessary to be applicable in
the physical activities of the entity, to gain the access, or
to gain that process of gain for self, when applied correctly
in the physical forces of the entity.
Then, do that.
We are through for the present.
BACKGROUND
1/22/27 [Background for 900-295, Par. 4-A]: "You may hear
from me by phone on Sun. a.m. and if you can arrange it a
special stock rdg. Sun. sometime would be very much
appreciated. You will see here a greater balance or power
of control of my subconscious self, for I seemed able to
govern the vision to ask and gain in this wider phase of
consciousness or by virtue of it an answer. It isn't that
intellectual reasoning isn't the operation of the same force
of consciousness, but that subconscious reasoning is the
operation of a kind of consciousness that is wider in scope
than the intellectual kind, even about those matter
pertaining to the intellectual kind's creation, for you see
the intellect is what the subconscious changes to become,
but the subconscious is what it is even as it subsists
within the changed intellectualized form and also what it is
in that form. Thus the intellect may reason from its own
viewpoint only, whereas the subconscious may reason from its
own cosmic viewpoint and also from the intellectual
viewpoint. Then I am both that which I cosmically am and
what I intellectually am, and I need only gain control of my
intellectual self and understand the changed viewpoint of my
cosmic self to fully control the latter, which is the
causation and eternal self of this plane, any other plane -
i.e. of life and its process, namely, creation. Christ
gained such control as to even prevent disintegration or
ramification of the elements of his cosmic self or
organization and thus became able to change them or this
cosmic self back into the intellectualized condition -
thus the resurrection, see? To understand this I must gain
an awareness of how these elements become concentrated into
the one atomic carrier of this plane - and how they may be
maintained or controlled in one organization, rather than in
ramified or split form of the elements of creation, see?
"'This is mine', saith the Lord, and from my lordly self I
seek, according to His will, this knowledge and its
application. Slowly, you see, we are getting on - slowly
the throne is coming closer, for the Father shall fulfill
His promise - or who will?
"I submit the following (dreams):" [See 900-295, Par. 3-A.]
REPORTS
1/25/27 EC's ltr. to [
900]:
Dear [
900]:-
Sometimes when I get a letter, such as yours of the 22nd, I
feel like I am all swelled up with ideas and ideals, for I
realize very clearly that you have gained an insight into
just the thing I have been seeking and have a hazy
understanding of, but am incapable of formulating such an
understanding into words so that others will grasp the full
meaning. But there are so many of the readings that need the
ideas as given properly correlated and put to-gether.
Apparently this thing remains absolutely set! Whenever any
information is given, all that has ever been given is
considered as capable of being understood by the minds of man
- not necessarily the mind of the individual for whom the
information is given, for I think often we find that while I
can't say it is spoken in parables, such as the Master gave,
yet the information is given in such a way and manner that
unless the individuals put forth effort on their part to gain
a correct understanding of same, and to correlate same with
the experiences of their individual life, they will never
gain anything whatever from it - and while a great deal of
information seems to be in a conglomerate or heterogeneous -
or great mass - and is necessarily needed to be classified,
tagged and put in place. Such is the information as has been
given, through the scope of many years, regarding the action
of the mental mind of a body, with its imaginations that are
capable of being builded, and the subconscious mind of a
body, with its superconscious guide, that ever holds it true
to that one directing point - the Universal Creative Energy
from which it originates, and is ever a part and parcel! But
so few people take the trouble to study it out - or, as some
great mind has already said, "Not more than one person in a
thousand ever does his own thinking!" But, as you say, we
are getting somewhere - for little by little we are getting
many of these elements of the mind of man tagged, put in
place, and are able to watch with some accuracy of
understanding the operative energies as create the workings
of the machinery of an individual incased in earthly form,
making its preparation to handle that consciousness it has
attained, whether of a destructive or a constructive nature.
Many following along the line of least resistance being
swept out, as it were, by superior minds, into chaos of
misunderstanding, and they arrive at a conclusion - "We
don't know what its all about and never can know!" Yet,
with this correlation, with this tagging up and checking
up, if I don't miss MY guess, we are becoming capable of
being (as might be said) in that state of where, given
certain elements of information, and the balance of the
mind of the individual, you can tell what the response would
be to any suggestion that would be made to it! And these
conditions apply to every phase of human existence -
so-called civilization, be it mediocre or classic - for that
one dividing or one divining element ever remains the
superconsciousness or the directing faculty of the
subconscious mind, which may be aided or abetted by the
conscious mind of an entity, or warped to such an extent as
to turn that subconsciousness into such an angle, with the
superconscious forces, that they are shut out entirely. Or,
they may be re-awakened by another angle that will again give
that same concentrated effort of the body mental mind, the
incentive to draw out or draw on the subconscious forces to
the extent that the superconscious or the Creative Energy is
awakened to the point of where it may control and bring the
individual portion of the entity into the direct presence,
even, of that Creative Energy. Maybe I'm just rambling along
- but I feel sure you get what I'm driving at - and we can
see how this is applicable in the lives of individuals. Now,
let me see if I can illustrate just in part just what I've
been trying to say: Some months ago we had a request for a
reading from a man [See
33-1, a Physical Rdg., which
indicated at the end that the man had been Nero] who,
possibly from the world's standpoint, is an illiterate day
laborer, possibly digging into the bowels of the earth to
supply heat and warmth to those who are able to pay for the
product of Mother Nature. This man received in his labors
an accident to his physical being, that has made him a
helpless invalid - yet coming in contact with someone who
had the knowledge of the information that might be obtained
through the readings of this nature, he appealed to us for
help. We haven't been able to do any good, from the
physical standpoint - yet the information as was supplied to
that man, illiterate as he may be considered by others, has
been able to awaken in him something of a spiritual
understanding, and though he - that entity - that
subconscious self of his becomes aware of the destructive
forces meted out to him through destruction he wrought on
mankind at another period of his existence in the earth
plane - to his inner being at the present time, or soul, if
we choose to call it so - he now finds himself face to face
with himself, and with that element he has created by the
actions of his physical self, through the literal control of
his body mental consciousness, without respect to his soul
or subconscious force, and now the whole being cries out for
succor and aid! Do you get the idea I'm trying to get over?
It's just the same thing as you have illustrated in Hudson
Motors from an experience in your life, and the experience
in a purely physical bodily condition in that of another.
Am I right or wrong? Oh, if we could just have the
opportunity to go over a whole lot of this stuff to-gether -
I believe we would be able to arrive at the point where we
would have many things that would be worth while to those
who would think at all. The article I'm enclosing you
possibly gives another angle of many of the things we are
studying.
But I must get on - we've got a lot of work to do!
With kindest personal regards from all,
Sincerely,
Edgar Cayce EC:GD
