With the ideals as come through those of Venus, a LOVABLE
disposition; one easily making friends, yet - with all - a
tendency that must be warred against, of the inclination of
selfish interests; not that these may not be warred against,
nor that self may not apply itself in a way and manner - but
as to the ideal as is set before self, this will make for
that as will be builded as a life that must be gratified in
those things that partake of earth, or whether those that
partake of the spiritual life, those that partake of the
mental life. Hence the ideals that the entity sets before
self, the goals the entity expects and attempts to attain,
will make for those conditions as will bring that that makes
for contentment and peace, or whether they bring those
conditions that with use wear away. Oft has it been said,
and WELL were it that all consider friendships and loves
that are builded on peace GROW, while those things that
partake of earth become weather-worn, and with age unfit,
unuseful; yet those that partake of those things that bespeak
of the abilities that come with love IN its higher sense
BUILD, grow more beautiful as time, age, comes on. In this,
then, will the entity do well, that those things that become
as the thoughtful portions of its activities, in the little
things that the body busies itself with, that they partake
more and more of that not ALWAYS as SACRIFICES; for, as has
oft been said, no longer does the Higher Forces, or God, call
for sacrifice; rather that ye love one another, even with
that love as was shown in the gift of the HOLY One, that we
through Him might have access TO the Father, TO the throne of
mercy and of grace! In giving, living, BEING - then - that
as draws nearer to those characterizations in activities in
and out before men, may ALL - even as this entity - find that
peace, that contentment, that comes with knowing that the
whole armor is put on, having the feet shod with a joyous
message, having on the helmet of light, with hands ever ready
to lend a HELPING hand to EVERYONE, in EVERY manner. In THIS
characterization of an ideal may the entity meet and make
for those developments IN the present, that are characterized
in those influences IN Neptune; not as mysteries not
understood, but rather as being, living, doing, those things
THROUGH those channels that BRINGS the understanding of the
glorious love of Him, shed in a world of sin!
In the appearances, and the effect these have had, do have,
WILL have upon the entity's present experience:
In the one then before this we find in this PRESENT land, in
that period when there were the settlings in the land and the
buildings about that now known as the old capital. The
entity then among those who, in that early period, aided in
the establishing of those of the schools in that place, being
then among those that taught, Page being the name, in those
that became leaders in the land, and the entity shed abroad
much good in the land, and may enjoy in the present - or may
find fault in the present with - that as was BUILDED by self
in the lives of those the ENTITY taught. In the present we
find those of that particular period have a peculiar
influence, a peculiar interest. Oft the entity feels as
having been a portion of same, yet from those things that
came in the latter portion with rebellious forces the entity
feels so far, so little, so unable to be a portion of same.
This is through the fear as has been builded by associations
that have brought fears in the present experience of entity;
yet will must be established, and the ideal set before self,
that the building may be true, as it was in that experience.
In the one then before this we find in that period when there
were turmoils and strifes in the land now known as the
Spanish land, when there were the unsettlings of the land by
the changes wrought in the religious cults and forces of the
land. The entity then among those who suffered in the
persecutions that arose, and in the name Carlois did the
entity gain and lose; for with the persecutions came doubts,
came fears, and the gratification rather of that that
protected self in the flesh rather than that that would
protect in the mental and the spiritual being did the entity
cling to for the time, and this - when it had borne fruit -
became cankerous to the heart of the entity. In the present,
as is seen, the unstableness at times as respecting the
various religious influences as arise; for doubts come,
doubts go, doubts arise - yet, will there be set that as was
seen in the one before this, there will be the safeness in
that haven of peace as comes with the knowledge of the
Faithful One.
In the one then before this we find in that land as was trod
by the Holy One, in Mount Seir did the entity dwell, and a
priestess of those that established the Mount and the worship
in the temple there. That at the time being a combination of
that taught in Dan and Beersheba by those that brought the
dissolution of the kingdom and those that re-established in
the land under the return of those of Zerubbabel, and with
the establishing the entity became one of the priestesses of
the temple in Mount Seir. THEN in the name Mirian. The
entity through this experience gained, for being true to
those tenets as were taught, as were given, using that
knowledge as was gained, and the entity - when it asked of
the Master (and whose daughter was healed by same), and the
answer as was given, that "Doth not the servants - even the
dogs - eat at the master's table?" brought that that was said
of her in that period, "I have found faith not so great even
in Israel." In THIS new found faith came many blessings to
many peoples, and the entity gained throughout THAT
experience. In the present, while doubts arise, may again
the entity hold fast to that as was attained in that
experience, and know the peace, the joy, the understanding,
even in the home life, as in those of the secular things of
life, that that knowledge, that peace, that application of
that love shown, will bring the joys that are not obtained in
ANY other way; for, as was given, "He that attempts to climb
up some other way is a thief and a robber."
In the one then before this we find in that land known as the
Ohum land, or Peruvian land. Here we find the entity AMONG
those of the Ohums [Aymaras], and the entity heading much of
those portions as dealt with the developments of the cults,
as were called, in establishing home, in establishing
estates, in establishing the various portions of the land, in
its relationships one to another. Not as a priestess, not as
a ruler; RATHER as one that gathered here and there for the
better relationships with those peoples in the land. From
this the entity in its present experience finds an interest
in many various relationships, and a leader EVER would the
entity be in various groups that the entity may associate
itself with; shy at times in the present, from many of the
uprisings and downsittings through which the entity in its
innate self has passed, yet in this field - as in the home -
may the entity succeed the most, in that - once set in the
ideal and in the application of same - would the entity set
self to become a leader in any group, or in the home, may the
best come in THIS experience. KEEP those words as of old,
"Go in peace, thy desire is made known unto thee." Ready for
questions.
(Q) Would she be happy if she married [...] [ex-husband]
again? [Father of her son, [
2661]]
(A) Only were the IDEALS set will the body be happy. Follow
those, and make or have conformity in the home life, in the
secular life, in the business life, to THOSE first. Will
these be made, happiness and contentment will come to the
entity.
(Q) In the period when she was in Mount Seir, was her
present mother [
2112] with her then?
(A) Her present mother then an aide to her in her work and
teachings after the conversion, as it would be termed in the
present, of each.
That is all the questions.
We are through for the present.
