(Q) Of recent date. Voice: "The pleasure I get from that
baby!" Exactly so. I do get a great deal of pleasure from
him. What meant by this then?
(A) More and more there is seen that - were the body, [
900],
in the way and manner of applying that which comes to the
entity through the intuitiveness of the body conscious,
or the mental body and the physical body, the subconscious
body correlating the truths, lessons - the application of
same will mean more and more to the entity in the way of
development.
Here we find these conditions existent: Study these, my man,
from this viewpoint:
The conscious mind studying the various phases of development
of the child, the baby, and with this there comes - when
there is the least consciousness of some condition arising,
or the POSSIBILITY of condition arising that might not be
entirely satisfactory - the expression then comes as from
from within OUT, that of the actions of the good, the joy,
the peace, the understanding that comes to the body with
the study of this development as is seen in the child.
Study from the viewpoint, keeping feet firm and mind aright,
discriminating between the action of the mental mind or
mental body, the subconscious or soul body, and that to which
the two developing. Remembering that this lesson may be
gained in truth: God the Spirit, and seeks spirit to worship
same. The Son the manifestation of that Spirit in the
earth's plane and, as given of old, the answer from within
through the soul - that spirit beareth witness with that
spirit - that ye be the sons of God, or not. For, as was
given - "I go away, that I may prepare a place, that where
I am there ye may be also. If I go NOT away, the COMFORTER
will not come" - Did my spirit not bear witness with His
Spirit, it would not be possible then for the God within
thine self to bear witness with thyself that ye may be
brought to the oneness with the Father. See? This
construction, this understanding then, may be gained also
in that as seen respecting the son [
142], in this study of
the baby life of the developing soul, or the relationship -
as it were - again of the son with the father, the soldier
with the soldier, the action of the financier [
142] with the
theologian [
900].
(Q) Morning of August 15th. I was in some sort of business
establishment, seemingly Block, Maloney's new office. It was
a spacious place, but that which interested me were the
examinations I had to take in the morning. It seemed that
I had to go up to college during the following morning. It
seemed that I had to go up to college during the following
morning and take exams in chemistry, history, philosophy and
english, etc. I drove [
137] up to Boston and showed him the
old narrow English streets. "Note how old and narrow they
are," I said. Then back in the office - the largest room of
all - and said, "This is your room, isn't it Mr. Burnett?"
He said yes. I was pointing it out to Edwin, showing him
that the blinds were drawn and room darkened now, but would
be lighted later. Then I noted an office with a large brass
plate.
(A) In this here (we will interrupt here, for this should
be given in this way and manner to the entity), it has often
been given study thyself and study those interpretations
that thyself may obtain. This - as is seen - in an
emblematical way and manner, and each figure as is shown
may be drawn by the entity - and with the application of
that as was given concerning the son, the boy, the baby, and
that as is shown as to what is meant by the Master's
interpretation of "I go away", and the entity applying same
in the changes that each position, each street, each light,
each plate, each study, each exam, each figure represents -
study thyself. Then, understandest thou not in toto, ask
and ye shall receive.
