(Q) Of [
137], last night or this morning. Saw what was
office of M. J. Meighan. They were building a brick hearth,
which proved to be a bed or resting place such as Edgar Cayce
might use to rest upon when giving a psychic reading. I
found that Meighan had discovered that he had psychic powers
and was going to demonstrate it. The fact was not generally
known, and when I told Alexander Sinsheimer of the power,
Sinsheimer doubted it. When Meighan gave the demonstration,
he came walking into the room. I tried to test his condition
by concentration, and he came and sat in my lap, where I held
and fondled him.
(A) This, as seen, presents to the physical mind of the body
varied experiences of the activity of force as may be called
psychic in a material plane, and - as has been given, in the
interpretation or application physically of the body as
respecting same - are in line with those same experiences
as have been seen or experienced by the body from time to
time. The mental body in its thought or activity concerning
the manner in which there may be obtained means, or a way
for the gaining of such for the benefit of place as seen,
that through these very same channels, when interested,
there may be brought into the full activity by the body,
one such as Sinsheimer, in the manner where the body
PHYSICALLY might direct the activities as respecting the
application OF the body, Sinsheimer, regarding psychic or
psychic demonstration, psychic phenomena - even as one held
in lap, or fondled by same, as easily as visioned by the
body, THROUGH the very same channels, for it is NOT an
ordinary thing, or a commonly known fact that Sinsheimer
or Meighan are interested in psychic phenomena. Using,
then, discretion and judgment with the intuitiveness that
is apparent in self, apply the knowledge gained; not for
other than the dissemination of Truth, as may be made
apparent in such contacts. DO that.
(Q) Is that a suggestion to approach Meighan and Sinsheimer
at a proper time on psychic phenomena, because this vision
has revealed the fact that they are secretly interested in
psychic phenomena?
(A) Correct.
(Q) Have Meighan and Sinsheimer any common interest in
psychic phenomena? Or along these lines?
(A) Common interests, but along different LINES.
(Q) The one, the dream of [
137]'s of night before, regarding
Van Patten in relationship to our Association and its work.
(A) This, as seen, presents rather a different aspect or
character of demonstration to the body. In the vision seen,
there is first uneasiness felt. Again satisfaction. Then a
common cause or purpose. That the position held by Van
Patten, and made known - as it were - through the experience
of the body. Apply it in the associations one with another.
(Q) That of [
900]'s night before last, in which I beheld a
man who sought forgiveness in prayer. I said, "Not only
believe you are forgiven, but know that you ARE forgiven,
for Christ forgives you." He challenged my right to so
represent myself, whereat Edgar Cayce spoke up and said:
"Yes, Christ gives him that privilege, and he may have
anything he wants, provided he keeps faith."
(A) That just the position of the entity or body from within
self. Apply the vision to self, self's interest, self's
endeavors and self's activities, for the vision is of self,
and - as given - there will come, with the understanding of
that visioned in this experience, that great experience of
being spoken direct to by that same energy as was manifested
in flesh in the period called the Christ. Be not unmindful
of that visioned, or of that sought; nor in the application
of that attained THROUGH the experience; for, as has been
given, "I will not ALWAYS bear with Israel in the hardening
of the heart against the warnings as are given, for now is
the accepted time, and there is call for repentance in
action."
(Q) I asked in a recent vision what I should do about
[
2886], and who I should take this up with, and I was told
Al Rosner.
(A) This as respecting consolidation of industries
pertaining to film, and - as has been seen, physically -
such consolidations have and are taking place, as will
others. Well that [
2886] and Rosner and [
900] work together
as respecting some advantages as may accrue from the
knowledge of such combinations. While this is common
knowledge in some directions, but Rosner will be able to
assist in gaining other information. In the application of
the knowledge lies that, that becomes rather as has been
outlined for the body. Carry on in that manner, for with
knowledge comes obligation. With obligation comes duty,
burdens - that to some are burdens, for the lack of the
proper application of knowledge.
(Q) The one in which I saw our baby, [
142], and was told to
rub his neck and spine with oil, and keep him warm, out of
draft and from catching cold.
(A) This rather that of forewarning as concerning conditions
that may be considered prevalent under the coming seasons.
Then, being forewarned be forearmed, and in the application
of such means comes the better manner of handling such
conditions, rather than those as have been ordinarily used.
No specific conditions arising. Anxiety rather of the guide
[Mrs. [
139], grandmother of [
142]] as respecting the varied
conditions as arise from time to time.
(Q) This means anxiety from the mother, [of [
136]], called
[
139], in the flesh?
(A) Correct.
(Q) The baby [
142] seems not to get sufficient weight.
Should any change be made in the diet?
(A) The diet at present rather good. While there has been,
and will be considered again, changing in same, at this time
there is sufficient of all necessary ingredients for the
proper development of the developing body, at this time.
With the changing seasons, after thirty to forty days,
gradual changes will be necessary; falling more then to
a nut and changed diet.
(Q) About the rubbing in oil, should I do this literally?
(A) Do this literally, occasionally, and when necessity
demands - rather this mode than ordinary dosage.
(Q) What kind of oil should I use?
(A) Sweet Oil.
(Q) To what extent is this baby and other babies in danger
by this infantile paralysis that threatens and is already
existent in New York City?
(A) Which exists in rather the form of that germ that brings
about or produces same, and weakened conditions especially
in the lymphatic circulation gives or allows one to be more
susceptible to such than those under bettered or a more
active lymphatic circulation. Oil and manipulation,
especially, in the centers as govern locomotion and central
system, are the factors governing especially lymphatic
circulation.
(Q) One, the dream in which I beheld a man sick in the drug
store, that through to the finish, where he was carried away
in an ambulance.
(A) This has been given as respecting the conditions that
should be acted upon in the manner given.
(Q) The experience in which [
139] spoke to me, and she said,
"Do not leave the baby six months under prevailing conditions
in New York."
(A) This rather the forewarning as respecting the anxiety
as would be caused to those, were the baby under the
conditions that may become prevalent in that vicinity.
(Q) Is there any other counsel that you would give [
137]
and [
900] in their present activities, in which they seek
to fulfill the mission of better interpreting the spiritual
truths and so called religious experiences?
(A) Only that, be thou faithful unto that committed unto
you, that it may be said of thee, "I have kept the promise"
and He will be faithful to keep His promise.
