GC: You will have before you the body of [
2888], who was
born June 29, 1900, at St. Mary's, Ohio, and you will give
the relation of this entity and the universe, and the
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 time,
place, name, and that in that life which built or retarded
the development for the entity, giving the abilities of the
present entity and to that which it may attain, and how.
EC: Yes, we have the entity here and its relation in the
present sphere with the universal forces as are exhibited in
the physical body in the present earth's plane. We find the
body took its position in the present sphere from that of
Jupiter, with the influence of Venus and of Uranus. Hence we
have in this body, while afflicted with those conditions in
Saturn, the influences that make a very remarkable personage
in the present plane, for we have one that truth, the
ennobling influences, that are latent in every act of the
entity. One also that the truth is paramount with the
entity. One that the love of home and of connections are
always in the actions of the body, yet there enters some of
the adverse conditions through these, those especially
through whose influence is in Saturn's forces. These are
rather of relations than immediate family's.
One who will give much influence in the rule to others, when
guided, guarded, and directed in the proper channel.
One sensitive of nature, yet noble in thought and act. One
timid in manner, yet one capable of reaching heights in
expressing that in which the body is well founded in and
believes the truth of.
One that has little to do with intrigue or underhand
operations. One that thinks less of self should [he and]
they allow themselves to be mislead, or drawn into such
intrigues. Hence the purpose must ever be that never of
self-condemnation, but rather relying on those elements that
would make the sure and the paramount issue of life. Then
one that should not place too much confidence in others.
While this is not of a fault, yet the nature of this entity
finding there was fault loses faith in self. Hence the
greater forces should be exercised in placing that faith,
that confidence, that purpose, in Him, the Giver of All Good
and Perfect Gifts.
As to the abilities of the entity in the present earth's
plane, with the ennobling influences, with the forces as lead
the higher elements as an exhibition of the forces manifest,
these should be, and would be, made a success in following
that of real estate salesman, and this may be accomplished
through some with whom this entity once was associated in
times past, as we shall see.
This, we find, would give (that is, by being connected with
these physical forces in the earth's plane) that of the
necessary means to have the desire in the development of
knowledge to which the entity may apply same. Ever keeping,
however, this: Let the trust, let the faith be in Him (not
an individual). In this we will find the greatest
development in the present earth's plane.
We find the filial and marital relations should begin in the
twenty-eighth year, and that these would bring some relations
that will give of greater abilities to the entity in the
present plane.
As to the appearances:
In the one before this we find in the days when the settling
of the present country was in its relation to the English
forces, and the entity then entered in that service of him
who settled in what is now Baltimore, and was in that
household and was the secretary to Lord Baltimore in
Maryland. In the present sphere we find this personality
exhibited in this body: Able, capable and desirous of
getting the least detail of every proposition presented for
this mind's investigation, knowing the minutia of every
proposition, whether of a mental, of a spiritual, or of a
physical or material condition.
In the one before this we find in the days when the rebellion
was in the hand of the king, the first king, in Israel, and
we find the entity then the armor bearer to Jonathan [See
[
4219] and [
221] Saul], and in the present plane we find this
personality: That of the innate desire to defend that which
is a principle in the mind and heart of the body. In this
relation we would find these experiences which would develop
this entity in present earth plane would be under the
influence of him who represented that entity then, for it is
in this sphere at present.
In the one before this we find in the Arabian forces, as is
now, when the Chaldeans then brought the forces to-gether in
the beginning of the building of the tower that afterward
became the rule, or site of the ruler, who afterward subdued
and ascended that throne. In that day the entity was then
again in the service of him who conducted the rule, and was
the secretary, or advisor (as was then) to the ruler, Uzhld
(as would be called now. Then, in Chaldeans being called
Jule - Sule). In this personality we find again the
abilities to view the perspective valuation of any condition,
whether the material property, land, objects or individuals'
worth. Hence the abilities to compile these two forces, and
with that of Jonathan's bring about the success in the real
estate forces of to-day.
In the one before this we find in the Peruvian forces, when
the now called Incal set the rule in that land, and the
entity then the Builder of the Conduits - through the
Mountains. In then the entity known as Ougldhtptht. In this
we find the personality gives that innate desire to find the
source through which all forms of conduits are prepared in
the present day, and is especially interesting to the present
mental forces, yet has never been made a part. May be
applied, however, in later life in the form of drainage to
lands.
Then, to use and apply this as given, keep first the faith in
Him, the giver of all good and perfect gifts, knowing that
the physical body is the temple of the living God, and
present same holy and acceptable unto Him, which is but a
reasonable service; for in service to man the greater service
is offered to God.
We are through.
