For, without the continuity of purpose there must be
confusion. For, body, mind and soul are the aspects of an
entity in material manifestation. The impetus arises, to
be sure, from the spiritual concepts. The mental arises,
or works from same, through the environs which an entity
chooses to move, or into which an entity is thrown or drawn,
- yet in the material things, these are of the entity's own
making in the greater part. This is indicated from the
experiences of the entity through sojourns in the earth,
and the application the self has given of the abilities,
the choices.
As to whether these are to be continued to be used only for
material satisfaction or mental gratification, or for
self-indulgence, or for that as may bring into the
experiences of others the more helpful and hopeful
experiences, depends upon what the entity chooses to do with
those opportunities, those abilities that are manifested in
this sojourn.
In giving these interpretations, then, - the material
sojourns have been at times quite varied as to the aspects
of its demonstrations in the material plane.
Hence we find one very highly sensitive to environs; one
very temperamental at times to conditions about self; one
not reliant upon the material things for its greatest aspects
in manifesting its abilities, yet one dependent upon the
material things for a greater mental and spiritual
application of self in the material plane.
As to the appearances in the earth, then, - these we find
quite varied.
Before this the entity was in the land of the present
sojourn, during the early periods when there was rather the
thought given to explorations; when there was the choosing
of those who would accompany those who set out to find the
new land, the new way.
Thus the entity, under the guidance of the first Columbus
expeditions, sailed into the ocean to the new land. There
we find the entity was attempting to escape from himself,
as it were, and his environs and activities, - in the name
Valesqua; but with the return and the activities following,
the life and experiences were quite different. For, the
expedition gave the opportunity, time and outlet for the
entity's real abilities, - in depicting upon paper and
metals that which the entity had seen.
Hence especially the stipple as was given to the activities
of the entity, following his first and only expedition upon
the seas, gave rise to a way, a manner of giving greater
expression, to bring to the awareness of others the entity's
concept of nature, or of man and nature in his relationships
to things and to materiality.
The entity gained, the entity lost, the entity gained, - in
being true to an urge of Creative Force. For, whatever urge
arises in the experience of an entity that is of a Creative
nature, is following closer to the divine. Whatever is of
a destructive force brings detrimental influences into the
experience. Running away from self is detrimental; being
creative in the activities brings development.
Before that the entity was in the land of the present
nativity, during the early periods following the persecutions
of those who had accepted the teachings of a Man - in the
holy land.
The entity was in Thyatira, Thracia and portions of Greece,
as an instructor in the schools for the moulding in clay,
and those activities as were a portion of those people's
activity. Yet the entity attempted to first make or draw
upon the walls of the meeting places of some of those groups
the activities of that Teacher.
Hence the first one drawn was the raising of Lazarus. We
find that still portions of this as drawn by the entity may
be seen in the old Antioch church, in Silicia. It would be
well for the entity one day to seek to see that, its first
attempt to draw upon a flat surface.
There the entity gained throughout, for it gave to mankind
a new concept of manners of expressing that not in words,
not in forms, other than as might be interpreted in the mind
and the experience of the beholder.
The name then was Agnosta.
Before that the entity was active in the earth during the
return of the peoples from captivity, and the rebuilding of
the Holy City and the walls thereof.
There the entity was among those who aided in the work of
the redecoration in metals, in brass, in the activities
about the holy places. The entity was not happy in mind,
nor in its physical surroundings, yet brought much to many
peoples during that sojourn, that activity.
And much that arises in the present experience of the entity
comes from those things experienced there, in the Holy City,
and in the service rendered.
Hold fast to those things that ye tempered there, and brought
into the activities of many through that sojourn, - as
Jeshua.
Before that the entity was in that land when there were the
journeyings from Egypt to the promised land, when there were
choices being made by the lawgiver of those who would be in
the position to supply the needs of the tabernacle built in
the wilderness.
There the entity was chosen not only by the leaders
themselves, but by divine intervention, for the drawing
especially of the ark, its contents, its manner of
workmanship, the hangings for the holy place. All of these
were a part of the entity's activity, - in the name Abiden,
of the children of Judah.
These have builded into the experience of the entity that
from which it may not wholly remove itself, - save by
fulfilling in the daily activities the service of love
and art for the hopes of man.
Before that the entity was in the Egyptian land, following
those periods of activities when there was the reconstruction
and the activities of the Priest, as well as the varied
groups in establishing the manners and means of
communication.
The entity was one commissioned to write the communications
between the peoples of Atlantis, the peoples in the temples,
and the people who had been in the rebellions; thus the Ibex
peoples as well as those of the King's own household, - hence
the manners of preparing the papyrus and the writings in
characters as well as in designs for all of these, were a
portion of the entity's work there.
Then the name was Art-Ex-Elo.
As to the activities in the present, - we find that those
analyses outlined depict the problems, the urges as are
latent and manifested in the experience of the present
entity.
There are the abilities in those fields of art, those fields
of service of various natures and characters; that bring the
temperamental problems when interpreted in material things.
Then, let the entity first know:
Do not disturb self as respecting the material things. If
thy purpose is kept aright, these will be brought into those
lines of activity as to supply the needs of the physical man.
Not that this assurance gives thee the privilege of being
a spendthrift, to satisfy only material desires. For, the
entity must keep self in those manners in which there is the
desire to give honest, sincere service in thy activities;
that the glory of Him may be manifested, who hast endowed
thee with such abilities, - yea, who has commissioned thee
in thy ways of preserving for mankind the beauties of the
Law of laws in man's experience. For, these are only heaven
sent.
Keep thy mind, thy body, in accord with these, and ye will
find beauty in all thy relationships.
Ready for questions.
(Q) In my work, should I stress portraits, types, or
landscapes and scenes?
(A) These should be varied. There should be certain
portions of time given to landscapes, for that portion
of the public to which this appeals; and there will be found
greater outlet for same in some communities or centers.
However, portraits are those that will bring the most
satisfactory remuneration or physical or monetary returns.
Studies are well, but not these so much as the others.
(Q) What is the best outlet and way of presenting the
portraits?
(A) As we find, there are very definite manners and ways
of this; that is, one leads to another in certain
characteristic groupings. For this entity, as we find,
those upon the west coast in the present would be the
channels, the groups to present same; and there are several
years of work there. Make the contacts first through those
agencies that will soon be in motion for Gracie Allen and
her associates, that will have commissions there - and many
of them! These will lead to the filling of the present
obligations, and will mean that you will reside on the coast
for at least three to four to five years.
(Q) What is the best outlet and way of presenting my scenes?
(A) Through art centers.
(Q) Should I give private exhibits? If so, where?
(A) In those centers where such presentations are shown;
Cleveland, Toledo, New York, Salt Lake, Los Angeles.
(Q) How can I make my Montreal trip successful?
(A) As this as we find is for a definite undertaking, under
the present EXTREME conditions existent there it will not be
monetarily a success in the moment, but it will be of the
nature that will eventually bring greater opportunities to
the entity.
(Q) Through what connection or association should I approach
Gracie Allen?
(A) Those offices through which she is represented in this
city.
(Q) Should I move my family back to New York?
(A) Rather - in the next nine months, or less - move the
family to the west coast!
(Q) Is there anything I can do to locate or help my parents?
(A) This as we find in the immediate is not easily done;
but through the regular channels of those who represent this
land there, the inquiries can be begun - and ye will locate
same.
(Q) Would it be wise for me to associate myself in any way
with Mr. James Boyle?
(A) We don't find a very good connection here.
(Q) Is there any advice and guidance that may be given at
this time regarding my work?
(A) Where the entity may instruct others, interest others
as an educational feature as in the training for the young,
these offer outlets for the moment that will reap for the
entity not only satisfaction and contentment but monetary
returns also.
We are through for the present.
