1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [136] of New York City, and the dreams this body had on the dates which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lesson to be gained from each of these, as I read same to you, and you will answer the questions which I ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Now, we have the body and the enquiring mind, [136]. This we have had before. And as the dreams are presented to this body, entity, there is seen that correlating of conditions as have been given in the changes as come to the mental forces, and the expanding of the mental forces in this direction.

3. (Q) Week of March 15, 1926. "Saw my mother [139] with two lamps shining on the back of her neck. The lights were administered by Dr. Kraus (the osteopath)." (A) This, as we see, is the entity's mentality, or body- mind, weighing with the conscious conditions regarding conditions, physical, as existent in the earth's plane, and the subconscious forces viewing these as an experience or happening. Viewed, then, from this standpoint, we see how that the subconscious reasons, as it were, with the body-mind, giving that again as had been presented for the consideration of the physical mind, and were these applied, the conditions, as would have been seen, changed, physically.
4. (Q) Would this treatment have cured my mother or merely prolonged her life - that is, would this light administration have definitely cured her, or only partially, or only probably? (A) Only in that manner of staying conditions as relate to physical life, for the conditions as existent in physical bodies are as of transient, when considered in the light of a cure, physically, see. That is, as was given that the condition would be relieved and brought to normal through the application of the pressure relieved, and blood clarified for coagulation in tissue strain, this would have

in the physical sense, then, brought relief and cure for body, as is viewed by the subconscious in this vision presented. Well, then, that the entity study same; not as that of condemnation to self, but as application of forces as are viewed physically, and viewed metaphysically, and viewed from the subconscious.
5. (Q) Would the second operation have been necessary? (A) Nor the first, had these been applied when given.
6. (Q) Monday night, March 22, or Tuesday morning, March 23, 1926. "Something regarding the eating of sweets." (A) Now, as is seen in this, there has been presented from time to time, through the various visions of the entity, regarding the effects in various manners of sweets to the physical body; of their necessity in certain conditions and senses for the body, of their action in OTHER conditions for the body. Then, as this is presented, it indicates that the body should take in consideration all those conditions as have been given and apply same, in the light of that as is known and desired, or undesired, of and for and by the body.
7. (Q) "A reference to a quarrel with my mother-in-law." (A) This, as we see, again and again, as has been seen in other visions, means that the entity should be warned. And being warned, be forearmed against conditions that would, or could, arise, that would bring unpleasantness to self and to others. For if such conditions were to arise in the life, these would become as strains, mentally and physically, and unpleasant to many that depend, and should rightfully depend, for much upon the actions of the entity. Then - then, the entity should act in that way and manner as to prevent such occurrences, for same may be done, by taking thought before unkind, or unthoughted, words are spoken.
8. We are through for the present.
