As for self and self's relations - these should be rather
those of a busy, contemplative life, using self in service,
busying self in activity for others - and in so DOING will
the body mental find that contentment, that satisfaction, as
of a life well spent in the ways as will bring FOR the body
mind, for the body consciousness, those of the most
purposeful, the most filled up, the most busy of lives, as is
NECESSARY where one holds a oneness of purpose. Being
mindful that those conditions in the physical forces of the
body are kept in such a way and manner as to offer for the
activity OF the mental and material forces OF body the best
channel through which same may manifest; being mindful that
the eliminations in the system are kept such that there is
not too much heaviness gathered about the locomotary centers,
nor the fullness in the lower limbs and feet become of such a
hindered condition in the circulation as to cause distresses.
These may be CORRECTED when there is just the beginning of
indications, yet when same has grown to become a portion of
the system - or the physical organism has so adjusted itself
as for such pressures in the pelvis and the eliminating
system to have become a constitutional condition, or the
system has adjusted itself to these changed functionings -
they become detrimental and harder to combat. The body
mental AND physical HAS given itself in the study of
anatomical and of the psycho effect of conditions, both
medicinal and pathological in the system, and is one that may
USE that knowledge as has been gained to a good account, in
such channels, through such conditions - and know, as the
body turns self in the study of same - let these be that
inclusive of the younger generations; for know in self that
the hope of the world rests upon the DEVELOPING minds, the
YOUNGER generations, and know that to build a proper and
whole body, mind and consciousness, is to begin a generation
- and generations - before such is brought INTO being. Then,
be more inclusive in the studies of the functioning of the
glands as related to the assimilations in system, those of
the tendencies as make for those disturbances in the system -
as HAS been studied by the body; NOT as to those who have
reached certain ages - as of from twenty-nine to thirty-five
- but rather as those that, with physical inclinations, are
prone - through their own appetites - to build in their own
physical beings those conditions that later become as of
forces to be reckoned with in their physical make-up; for
mind being the builder, then same being controlled by
environmental and hereditary forces - NOT as of a single
body, but as of a unit of the entity's experiences through
the earth's plane - each environ building that as in an
innate force, that that may be awakened within self as to the
oneness of life, as to the continuity of existence - and, as
the entity applies self in these directions, may there come
those of the greater satisfaction, the greater understanding,
and the closer associations of those who will assist, aid,
counsel, advise WITH the body, the body will counsel and
advise WITH those who are brought into contact with the
mental abilities of the body THROUGH such studies, as will
bring the most into the ENTITY'S well being. Ready for
questions.
(Q) What will bring peace to the mind and soul of [
4113]?
(A) As has been outlined, in the use of self in service, for
the study of those conditions as has been close to the body,
as relate to the various effects as created by the
functioning through pathological conditions in the system of
human beings. These studies, their applications, and the
close contact with such - as an ADVISORY body, as one that
may counsel with, meditate with, work with such, will the
body find the greatest satisfaction.
(Q) What does the future hold for the success of this body,
that she may be inspired to carry on?
(A) Depends upon the application of self. The abilities, as
indicated, are there. As to the application of same, each
individual should come to the cognizance of their own
relations to the divine, as is within each soul's abilities,
and in that relation one finds that that may aid in an
understanding - first of self, as to its own contacts - then
as to the guiding of self's own life, and the abilities to
counsel with many.
(Q) What warnings should this body have for its best health
and happiness to insure success in her undertaking?
(A) As has been outlined, as regarding heaviness - as is a
tendency of the lower circulations of the body, especially as
related to the lower extremities, feet and limbs - and of
such, as has been outlined.
(Q) Should the body consider entering any special business
enterprise, and when?
(A) Rather in those lines as has been outlined.
(Q) What advice should she give her intended son-in-law, as
to entering the stock brokerage business in Wall Street?
(A) Best as to advice - let body be sought, as has been
indicated, and not attempt to pigeon-hole or set bounds about
same through the advice unsought - for this must, of its very
nature, build a barrier that must eventually either be broken
down by conditions that would be brought about, or this must
be builded as a UNITY purpose; so that the counsel, the
advice, that ability as may be manifested THROUGH the self -
in being able TO advise WHEN sought. SEEK, would ye find -
not go and demand, or tell beforehand. He that would seek
God may find Him. He that would be able to counsel WITH,
must often keep quiet. He that would have the ability must
be able first to rule own self, own tongue, own activities.
(Q) When should the daughter [...] get married?
(A) That's with her.
(Q) What should the body do to successfully handle her
present and future investments?
(A) Study to show self approved unto God, the GIVER of all
good and perfect gifts; knowing that, that held in this
world's goods is lent of the Lord TO those WITH the ability
TO apply same IN s direction that will make manifest His love
for the peoples through whom the entity MAY contact.
(Q) What banker would be a good adviser for this body in
whom she could have implicit trust?
(A) This may be sought best through the mental forces of the
body. Contacts have been made. Associations are already in
line. As long as they show themselves trustworthy - If you
would be trusted, trust another. If you would have friends,
show one's self friendly. If you would have abilities, apply
that you already have in hand.
(Q) Please advise body how to get the most help and hope
from her occult association?
(A) By entering into the silence at least once each day, and
applying self in the use of that as is already known, felt,
has been experienced by self, may be experienced by self;
knowing that the spirit from within will counsel with, and
guide - and study self first.
(Q) What branch of social work would best assist body to use
her time to best advantage?
(A) Do as has been given! Try THAT! THEN we may give
further.
We are through for the present.
