(Q) Morning of Nov. 9. It seemed my father's body dug
up out of grave and I winced at the odor of the decayed
skeleton. The head that I looked for was gone, as it lay in
its box. My father and I regarded it, and then the condition
seemed to apply to my Uncle [
90], who seemed with my father.
I determined to stand the hideous sight and odor of decaying
flesh and turning the box containing my father's body around
I started to teach, preach and lecture to beat old Harry.
My Uncle [
90] seemed listening in spirit, for his body seemed
like my father's.
(A) In this we find there presented those conditions in
which the body consciousness gains that understanding of how
the elements are in the various phases of consciousness, for
there is viewed by the physical consciousness of the living
the cosmic consciousness of the living in another state, and
the sensuous conditions of the physical seem to be in the
predominant action as regards same. Then the change and
the action of the body consciousness to give and apply the
lessons as are gained from the various planes or phases to
those even that are in BOTH planes. The lesson, or that as
presented, is that as has been held respecting conditions
regarding the physical condition of the uncle, and that in
the short time there will be that changed condition for the
body - the disintegration. As to the time when this will
occur, this will be given to the body again before this
happens. As is seen by the lack of the head, yet the viewing
of the transition and the act of physical forces as regarding
same show that inability to reach same save through spiritual
application of lessons as may apply to the living portion
of the body, physical and spiritual. THESE, then, are the
lessons the entity gains from same.
(Q) May anything yet be done?
(A) Only that as given, see?
(Q) Morning of Nov. 12th. Seems there was a failure -
two of them - in the Street. One of the main ones I saw was
McConnell. The other I wasn't sure of. Give any information
possible concerning this.
(A) Here we have presented in that manner in which the
information has been given wherein the entity might be able
through self to find those presentations where conditions
that were to happen, or to come about, or premonition, or the
ability of the inner consciousness to reason as to that which
would come with the conditions existent that seemingly were
unknown to the body. Or the ability to prognosticate
(correctly) and to find many reasons for conditions that
heretofore, or without this knowledge the entity would be
unable to reason from or to. The changes as have taken place
respecting the change in those conditions in the Street -
this has brought much troubles to many, and these, as seen,
are on the verge of being swamped or shaken down through the
conditions as have come about from same. Beware lest in same
many be caught in the changes that will be brought about by
these failures, for unless there is the reckoning from other
sources these will come about within the next few days. Then
watch for the reaction, see?
