GC: You will give the relations of this entity and the
universe, and the universal forces; giving the conditions
which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the
present life; also the former appearances in the earth
plane, giving time, place and the name, and that in each
life which built or retarded the development for the entity;
giving the abilities of the present entity, that to which
it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions, as I
ask them:
EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known
as or called [
3317].
In giving an interpretation of that as we find here, - for
this to be helpful for this individual entity, it would be
well that the counsel be given to those responsible for the
entity, and then we would give the instructions for its
guidance when the entity has reached the age of twelve - if
there is the change as should be in the application of the
will.
For here, while there is an entity with abilities, the lack
of application of will has brought into the experience such
tendencies that it will require time, patience and prayer,
that the direction and choices made by this entity be in a
constructive, creative direction - rather than towards
self-indulgence or self-aggrandizement.
Those tendencies to be backward are rather the seeking to use
these for the attention to self, and to have self's own way.
Not that there is to be abuse, but there is to be used
persuasion; not by buying, not by cowarding or breaking the
will, but by persuasion because of the rightness of the
purpose toward which the entity would be given directions.
Beware of water and waterways in regard to the entity. For
these may bring conditions that may be very detrimental in
completing or fulfilling the experience in this particular
sojourn. Beware of too much attention or of allowing the
entity to dictate its terms of activity in the years of
unfoldment and development.
Rather, as indicated, train the child in the law of the Lord,
and when he is old he will not depart from same.
Do these for the next ten years; and then we may give that
which will be helpful.
Unless these precautions are taken, there will not be
self-reliance, there will not be stability.
There is the natural tendency for honesty. Do not teach the
child in the manner that it uses things as an excuse. Be
honest ever with answering its questions. Do not hide things
from the developing mind.
Do these, and we will have, we will build for, opportunities
for a soul for for development.
We are through with this Reading.

love, we think he may be quite talented, and want him to be
helped in the right direction. He certainly has lots of
personality."
