The influences in Neptune make for interests in activities
of individuals as to their own prowess, their own abilities
in given fields; whether in the political, religious,
musical, commercial, or in what form. Especially ADVANCED
individuals have been of interest to the entity, and oft
in the associations with same - rather than that ordinarily
termed which comes from the attributed valuations of
indwelling in Neptune influence (of water); yet rather water
has played, does and WILL always play, an important part in
the material activities of the entity, rather than its life
or sojourn near or upon water; and brings also some of those
periods when there have been accidents in or near water,
or near accidents that have been a portion of the entity's
experience.
As to the appearances in the earth and their effect upon the
entity in the present, we find:
Before this the entity was in the land of present nativity,
in and about what is now known as the eastern portions of
Pennsylvania - during the periods when there were the
settlings of the land by those peoples who came from
persecutions on account of their religious beliefs and
activities.
The entity was among those in the name of Minor, or known
as Muller Minor in that experience; and gained in its
activities. For the appreciations of the evaluations of
friendships became a portion of the activities of the entity
during the sojourn, by its associations and affiliations with
those in far command; yet being as one superintending over
the tilling of, the harvesting of, the preparation of the
fruits of the soil, that made the entity one upon whom many
depended for their sustenance in those periods of distress.
In the position the entity gained and lost; gained where not
mere friendships but the love for the evaluation of life and
its activities in the earth were concerned; lost in those
periods when there were the oppressions and tendencies
towards a holding of those influences to force individuals
into the way of thinking as the entity did. Yet making,
as on the whole, a life or an experience of advancement.
Before that we find the entity was in those lands and periods
when there were the buildings in what is now known as the
Persian and Arabian, when there were the separations of those
on account of the activities known as violent arising from
infectious forces in the combination of individuals, through
the inattention to their own sanitary relationships and
activities.
The entity then was in conjunction with those peoples in that
land and in that period who were the teachers, the healers,
the leaders, and became a portion of that very activity in
making those separations. Hence in the period the entity -
as it may be termed - was the physician, or the co-helper in
the physicians' activity with the leaders in that experience;
forming for those lands the first activities whereunto the
drosses and the material things might be disposed of in such
ways as to be the most beneficial.
Hence in the present experience things are of especial
interest where the health of individuals is concerned, the
health of communities, and the health of peoples of great
numbers; and also where there are ever those changes or
combinations of things or influences that reflect upon such
a relationship.
Yet from that experience also in the present comes the
interest in things pertaining to speculative relationships,
not only as to the whys and wherefores from the mental
activity but material expression in same.
The name then was Ulanjel, and among those peoples from the
native land about same.
Before that we find the entity was in what is now known as
or called the Egyptian land, during those periods when there
were the disseminations and the gathering together of those
that were to aid in setting out and sending out the tenets
and truths, especially as to the relationships of the
hospitalizations that were established during those periods
- and in the teachings and ministerings to the physical needs
of individuals in hospitalizations. And the entity became
among those - it may be said - who had supervision over the
combination of school and hospital, which combination would
be well in the present - and which should be a part of the
training in every institution of learning; not only the
hygiene and economics but the combination of PREVENTATIVE
medicines should be a portion of every curriculum, in not
only the advanced but the beginnings of institutions of
learning.
And the entity has in many respects held many of these things
in the innate activity, and has had the desire and expressed
self in these directions.
Then, as to the abilities of the entity and that to which it
may attain, and how:
Think never that the opportunities have passed; for ever is
there set before thee a choice to make, and has always been
given "TODAY is the acceptable year, the acceptable day,
of the Lord!" It is never too late to begin, even in an
experience; for Life in its experience is a continued, a
continuous effort - in making, in starting, the associations
which bring what has ever been given as the way whereby man
may justify himself before the throne of grace in a material
world: "Inasmuch as ye do it unto the least of these, my
little ones, ye do it unto me."
When there is, then, that activity whereunto there is made
known more and more in the minds and hearts and experiences
of all that whereunto they have been called for a purpose in
a material manifestation, greater and greater becomes and
grows - the possibility, the capability, of advancement.
Hence the entity should give out, little by little, in these
directions as indicated - in clarifying these situations in
the experiences of individuals, groups and masses; that the
body is the temple of the living soul and there should be
made and kept that whereunto it may become the more beautiful
place for the worshipfulness in its every function, in its
every organ, to glorify those purposes whereunto each organ,
each functioning, has been set for the glorifying of the
spirit of creative forces in a material world.
Keep, then, the faith that thou hast builded in many; not as
thine OWN, but as unto the glorifying of the Creative Forces
that may manifest in a material world.
We are through for the present.

REPORTS
1/09/35 Wife's letter thanking EC for her Ck. Physical Rdg.:
"Also rec'd the two Life rdgs. [
1757-8 and 909-1] They
are strangely interesting. It seems our lives go in channels
of our own making. I must have needed some good hard bumps
for I surely got them in this life. Yet it is soothing
to know, when one gets a glimpse of the why, that they can
in a measure work out. I thank you for your kindness in
giving the rdgs. I know much good will come from them.
I am enclosing ck. for $35, $30 for the rdgs. and $5 as
a contribution to the work. Mr. [
909] joins me in wishing
you and your co-workers good health and trust that the year
will bring much good."
5/13/36 She obtained
909-2, a Physical Reading for her
husband.
