TEXT

1. GC: You will give a Mental and Spiritual Reading for this entity, answering the questions as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the inquiring mind [3503].
3. In giving that which as we find may be of help for this body, there must be taken into consideration the personality of the entity as well as those conditions physical, mental and material, that arise in the consciousness of the entity in the present.
4. There are certain ideals regarding social and moral relationships that are exercised in the mind of the entity. Ask the self: Are these changes wrought in the mind consistent with what the body has practiced in its own experience, and in the whole relationships that are a part of the present experience?
5. The entity should begin first with the spiritual self. What are the ideals in the spiritual self? What are the sources of thy hope for a continued consciousness after this material life? For as it may be considered, it isn't all of life just to live, nor all of death just to die, but what is prompting the hope of the future life - spiritually, mentally, materially? Are you as an individual living such a life that would be consistent in producing that ideal in relationship to all concerned in problems that are a part of the experience in the present?
6. Then, when the life is made consistent with the ideals, we will find health, greater relationships, greater help of every character may be experienced in the body, in the mind of this entity.
7. Be consistent, then, with self. Be consistent with the ideals.
8. Then they may be so lived in the experience as to mentally and materially demand or seek such in the relationships with others.
9. Do this and we will find life becoming more worthwhile - for self, for those with whom the entity comes in contact daily.
10. By the very living - not by word but by deed also - make life worth living for others.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) How best can I deal with an infidelity problem in my home?
    (A) As ye would that others should do to you, do ye even so to them. These are problems that may be met first in self and self's ideal; then so lived that it demands the respect ye give thine own ideal.
13. (Q) Is there danger of a suicide from this condition?
    (A) Always danger, but it's a lack of judgment. Be consistent.
14. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. 12/07/43 [3503]'s letter: "In answer to your letter giving me a mental-spiritual reading date of Dec. 15 - 1943. Your time is to be 10:30 - 11:30 E.W.T. At that time, which is 7:30 - 8:30 P.W.T. I am usually busy at my home getting breakfast for my family. If such duties will not interfere with your application, the time is then convenient for me. If you would rather have me more relaxed & quiet, either 1 hour earlier or from 11 to 12 E.W.T. will suit me.
   I have two questions I would like to ask. How best can I deal with the infidelity problem in my home, which is my greatest (and always has been) problem. The next question is there any danger of any one committing suicide if that infidelity is exposed."

REPORTS

1. GD's note: 10/44 Appointments for her Life Reading and Physical Reading for her husband were cancelled due to EC's illness.
