TEXT

1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the Universe, and Universal Forces, giving the conditions that are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life. Also the former appearances in the earth's plane, giving the time, the place, and that in that life which built or retarded the development for the entity, giving the abilities of the present entity, and that to which it may attain, and how.
2. EC: Yes, we have the entity and those relations with the Universal Forces, as are manifested and latent in the personality of the entity in the present sphere, with those conditions in will's forces and in the Universal Forces, as produce that as to which the entity may attain in the present earth's plane, and how.
3. In taking the position in the earth's plane, we find the entity comes under the influence of Venus, with Jupiter and Uranus, with the influence of Mercury, and with Saturn, with the adverse influence in that of Scorpio and Leo. Then, we have this as the personalities in the present earth's plane, for we find will's force has played much in the development of entity in the present earth's plane.
4. One with much love in the life, for self and others.
5. One who finds that worlds may be conquered through love; and that hate and strife destroys in every sense.
6. One that dislikes any contention in the individual, group, or masses, or classes.
7. One that finds that the individual, for their own sake, is the greater criterion for the advancement of self, or for service to others.
8. One of the mien that gives the motherly instinct to many, yet one who has found sorrow often in the life; yet capable and able to make the best of the conditions, through the spirit love, and the filial and the worldly love.
9. One that brings much joy to others through the assistance lent to individuals, in advice, in counsel.
10. One who never turns one away when the others seek for counsel.
11. One who has often brought sorrow to self in trying to help others, yet one never regretting having given self in service.
12. One that is of that trend that gives the development for self in counsel to self, with the ennobling influences in the life, without reason for same; results being that as the answer, rather than of reason; yet one making friends in every walk of life, and having enemies in few; yet when an enmity is created, to the entity, it felt as if it did not exist, see?
13. One that will, then, through these influences, as these are builded more and more in the present earth plane, will bring to self those greater joys, those greater blessings, as comes from service to many.
14. One that would have made an excellent nurse.
15. One who would have succeeded in this save for love of individual that the life given to, rather than for self.
16. One who has, through these conditions as attempted to assist, brought those conditions that were unsatisfactory to many, yet to self has ever been a source of pleasure, rather than of regret, and in the present earth's plane, there will come into the life those conditions in earthly treasures, earthly stores, that will make up for many of those points in the life that has been disagreeable. Monies that have been due the entity, then, will be paid in their season, for the cry, as it were, of Truth ever brings the answer of good.
17. As to the appearances:
18. In the one before this we find in the country where the entity now resides, and among those of the first settlers in that region. Then in the name of Dale, and the entity then gave self in the help of those conditions that surrounded the hardships of those peoples, and brought much to those peoples. Developing then, though not LIVING to an old age in that sphere. The urge, as we see in the present from this, being that of the good that may be done to all, irrespective of their place or position in life, for to the entity, position means little, save as the greater ability to serve.
19. In the one before this we find in the days when the peoples were in that throne of troubles in the French country (NOW known), when the war in the foreign countries brought many peoples to that land. The entity then in the name of Renae, and in the Court of the ruler of the land, being then the leader of the social sect, or in that position as the favorite to that ruler. In the urge as is seen from this position, the entity gains that ability to use the position, place, or time, for the best interests of self's own development, forgetting not that others have THEIR likes and dislikes, with the acknowledging of these prerogatives in each entity.
20. In the one before this we find in the country of the Bedouins, when the rule of the land was taken into Achaea, and the entity then among those peoples carried there as the ones to keep the country in the submission, and then in the name of Sarai, and the entity then lost in the development, for with the change in the position, and having others under submission, self's satisfaction of the aggrandizement of the power given, brought little understanding. In the urge as is seen from this, that dislike of servitude in any, on account of position or of any condition held over an individual.
21. In the one before this we find in that of the Egyptian country (now known), when the peoples were first seeking the rule of spirit and of the knowledge of the inner self. The entity then in the name of Isota, and the entity gained much in that, through service and sacrifice, and the urge as is seen, that latent desire for the knowledge of all rule as pertains to the mental vista of peoples, as pertains to religion. Hence, this as a living example rather than as rule or regulation.
22. As to how the entity may attain, and what:
23. In this all, then, there is seen the will and the desire to bring good to many, for good's sake, in the lives of others. Then, the more the entity may contact, the more motherly love as may be shed, will the entity find the satisfaction, the peace in mind, the needs of earthly store, the desires of the heart, the treasure store of the soul, in service. Then, keep that spirit of Truth in self, that the life as presented may be holy and acceptable unto the Giver of all good and perfect Gifts, for in Him there is Light, and the Light shines into dark places, and as this light in self is manifested in the lives of others, this IS that shining into the darkness, for unto the needy the worth while comes, for that which is put into life may be obtained from same. That which is not spent may not be regained.
24. We are through for the present.
