1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [137] of ... St., N.Y. 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: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [137]. Dreams as come to this body, this entity, should be made to apply to those conditions as exist in the physical, mental mind of the entity, the body, at the time, and may be used in the physical way to bring such conditions to the entity as visioned by entity in same, in the way and manner as has been outlined for this entity. Ready for dreams.
3. (Q) Evening of January 2, 1926. Man on motorcycle, apparently on race track. (A) This, as we see, rather that of the unsettled, unstabled, mind in the entity manifesting self, as is seen, for, as we see, this only a portion, as it were, of dream. Motorcycle racing with horses on race track. The unreasonable condition, the unreasonableness of everything presented in vision, gives as to the mind that condition of unstable in self's position, as is or SHOULD be occupied by entity, as regarding conditions enacting, and being enacted, in the life, and in the experience of the entity. That is, as is specifically seen, see? On this date there was presented to the mind of the entity those conditions as to which the entity should have been VERY firm in self and self's position as regarding same, see?
4. (Q) Evening of January 4. In a large handsomely decorated room. I thought it was the room on the curb market REDECORATED. There were velvet pieces and chairs. Somebody was in a bedroom and we wanted that person to come out and dance. We wanted some sort of a peasant's dance done. The person did not come out, so my father said he would make that person come out.

(A) Again, we see unreasonable conditions, unthought of conditions, to the physical mind, presented to the body, in and through subconscious correlations of conditions as are in the mind (at the time) of the entity, for, as we see, the redecoration, the re-situation of conditions and furnitures, unlikable to the surroundings of that thought of in a physical sense. The desire for the pleasures, or for the entertainment, or for that as would be carried on in the room, is seen as being in an unreasonable way, for the place, for that as is ordinarily seen in surroundings. Then, there is seen that the father would BRING those OUT. This, then, presenting to the entity that position, of that which would bring that stability to self, to the surroundings in every condition, were these as are seen understood, for as is seen, as is pictured again in the mind, physical, of the body, that one who would call, or who would bring about those conditions as would be satisfactory for the desires, as are seen, in the flesh, of these about the entity, the positions, the place, the surroundings, and all, even with their unreasonableness, there is seen that this entity, though in that place as is known to physical sense in the unseen, yet these would bring about. Then the lesson: That the UNSEEABLE, the UNREAL, to the physical is the REAL, and that which would bring the more perfect understanding, the more perfect conditions as would be for the entity in every way and manner, see?
5. (Q) Who is that person? (A) Doesn't refer to any PERSON! Conditions are as given here, see?
6. (Q) What is or whose room was this? (A) Not of any individual. The INDIVIDUAL the person, for the correction is in self.
7. (Q) What reference to curb market? (A) No reference to curb market. Reference to those conditions and things within self.
8. (Q) What is indicated here in my seeing my father who is deceased? (A) That as has been given, how that the unseen things, see, the unrealities to the mental reasoning mind, are the realities of life, or that element which brings to bear those conditions necessary.
9. (Q) Did he actually enter this vision? (A) As the rest entered.
10. (Q) Jan. 2, 3, or 4th. Saw a boy run over by an automobile. (A) Again we find not all that presented retained by the entity in the physical consciousness. With this automobile, there is presented the way and manner of the accident, as is seen or felt from a physical sense, and is again the body
137-54 Page 3
viewing SELF, see? Then, DON'T GET RUN OVER by self, so that it brings into the physical conditions of the body that which to the physical is being represented by an individual being run over! No reference to an individual, save to self.
11. (Q) Night of Jan. 18, or morning of 19th. I was being annoyed by the police for some reason until I wrote a letter to the department telling them I was a member of our business firm. (A) Again the self seeing self in that position of standing in an uncertain light, by many. Then correct, see?
12. (Q) Something about not dreaming properly. That is, I was making myself sick. (A) Rather that as is presented (of making the self sick), making self not taking, not accepting, not building, on dreams or visions, or that as being presented. Then to the entity, there is as this: Again and again the entity catches, through experience, through dream, through vision, those conditions that, builded into the full consciousness of self, with that decided stand as within self concerning those as are seen, would bring the greater peace, joy, happiness, understanding, and in the physical build the greater strength, be the greater help in all times of need. Then take same. Then apply same, that the light, as may be given to others through this entity, may shine; not as one reflected, but as from one whom is giving of self in the way of being the reflection of SELF in that light.
13. We are through for the present.
