1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [136], of New York City, and the dream this body had on the date which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lesson to be gained from same, as I read same to you, and you will answer the questions regarding same that I ask you.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, here. This we have had before, you see. The dreams, as we see, come to the body under the stress of those conditions which exist in the mental forces and are the experiences of the mentality of the individual, that the development or the usage of same may prepare, may so bring to the consciousness that best for the development, for the mental, spiritual and physical forces of the body. Ready for dream.

3. (Q) Sunday morning, December 27, 1925. "Dreamed that my sister and myself were on my bed with our mother. Mother was unconscious. Both my sister and myself were crying and saying, 'Don't leave us!' Suddenly our mother awakened and started to talk out loud, very loud, but it didn't seem like our mother talking at all." (A) In this we see the mental strain under which the physical forces of entity is passing, with the subconscious giving the possibilities of actual conditions that might be existent in the physical forces, and with same giving the spiritual interpretation to, or through, the subconscious forces; that the entity, through the study of same, may gain the strength to bear with the weaknesses of the heir of fleshly conditions. This, then, is the lesson, and the interpretation is as the lesson, see?

4. (Q) Does this mean that the mother, [139] will not recover, or does it mean that she WILL recover? (A) Does not mean either. Rather the possibilities and the weighing of conditions, and a reasoning of the subconscious with the physical conditions, see? and the lesson is that as given, that the physical may gain strength in same.

5. (Q) Can anything more be done than is being done?

(A) This, as we find, applies more to others than this condition, see?

6. (Q) What does it indicate to the two daughters? (A) The lesson as given, that the physical may know the truth of "The soul liveth." Just as we see in the vision as is seen by [900] in this relation, in seeing the weeping of the entity, this shows to the entity how the physical empties self in trying to obtain the physical understanding of spiritual conditions that may be existent in regards to physical conditions that are apparent.

7. We are through for the present.
