(Q) Something about my driving over country roads with two
figures in a carriage. I was afraid but got over alright.
Then [
257] did likewise. Something happened to the figures
as he drew the horses up sharp and [
257] ran away. "I had
some job there," I said laughing. "Oh," said [
257], "What
a time I had," and laughingly he told me of it.
(A) Again - as the entity sees this - as the message, or as
the lesson, that while one may gain and apply lessons by and
through the figures that are given, the other may run away
from same, and shall feel (or apparently feel) they have had
as hard time as the other - these are as literal, see?
Interpretation and lesson then being, as is seen by the
entity, and gained - and should be gained, through the study
of those conditions as have been presented for the entity -
that same lesson as was given Peter of old: Be not called,
as it were, the one that was ever flying off the handle, but
rather as the rock - from which the greater discernment and
understanding of all truths are given, from the spiritual
understanding of those conditions as are presented from time
to time. And be not mocked by those of the material minded
nature, that must see there is something for the coffers that
the one would present self for service in, but rather as Him
who made Himself of no estate, that the greater number - that
the world - might know there was the rock in Israel; for, as
was said of old: Though he were rejected by the builders,
yet He became the cornerstone.
Be thou, then, in that same contrite mind, being humble, and
being servant of all become master of all; for he that would
become as subject to the law is as of one that is cast away,
but he that would BE the law may give others the greater
understanding, even as the Master gave - for oft has the
body gotten the concept of the inner consciousness of those
that would WILL to do, yet there presents often that of the
material mindedness; through the lack of the insight, or
understanding, or development - for all mean one and the same
thing, in this sense - falter, err, and bring much to naught
of those that are not stable and well grounded in the truth
that makes men free.
(Q) [
257] talking. "No," he said, "I won't give one nickel
to the Association as long as someone can step in and take
the whole thing in case Cayce dies." Then my father appeared
and showed me what to answer or made me the agent to answer
what he (my father) communicated through me - thus showing me
in this manner what to say. (A remarkable example of spirit
communication - yet some say it is vague and impractical.)
My father, then speaking, altho it seemed to be me saying:
"I believe there is motive and ability, purpose, to carry
out that purpose, even if both the motive and ability are
unseeable to the intellect." Then in the dream I reasoned
what it was my father meant. I have never before in any
introspective experience felt such a fine line drawn between
that which was part of my own mental consciousness and
between that given by another entity of consciousness,
altho given thru me, as if motivated by me, when in reality
motivated by another intellectually unseeable mind.
I reasoned then that my father meant that he himself and
other forces would take care of this matter - had it fully
in hand, so to speak.
(A) Again and again is that lesson presented to the entity
as of calling and warning the entity of that great trouble
that defeats many purposes - Unbelief; for oft and long has
it been given, through those same sources, and in the same
way and manner as is seen and understood by this entity, that
the forces would not defeat themselves, and that once set in
that perfect way of administering service and of justice, and
of education, to others, this would be as perpetual. Then
learn - if not by that already given - by this vision, this
verification of the lessons and truths, that these are as the
perfect UNDERSTANDING - and is as from the sources of truth!
(Q) Here a definite example of just such unseen motive at
work. My father put into my consciousness the fact -
(A) (Interrupting) This only the interpretation of self.
GAIN that lesson, that truth, as has been set - for over and
over again are the truths, the lessons, being POUNDED - as it
were - into the CONSCIOUSNESS of the entity of the GREATNESS
OF the understanding that may be attained, and of the PURPOSE
as is being set in motion. Wilt thou be worthy? Or shall
another be raised that there may come to the peoples the
great truths that will bring again those joys that come
from the more perfect understanding of man's relations to
the creation and the creation's active force in the material
plane?
