1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [137], of ... Ave., Apt. ..., N.Y. 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 this, as I read it to you, and you will answer the questions I ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [137]. This we have had here before. The dreams, as we see, come to the entity through those channels as have been outlined for the entity, and are for the entity's edification, will they (the dreams) be but applied in the physical or material life, for the dreams and visions are as experiences to the mental forces, and the mental or mind is the Builder.
3. Ready for dream.
4. (Q) Morning of Dec. 15, 1926. By some error or mistake [900] bought instead of sold, or vice versa, some stock that raised the debit balance of our account and this made me terribly angry. It entailed some loss, and I quarreled angrily and bitterly with [900], having a lot of trouble. (A) In this there is presented to the entity, in this emblematical way and manner, those of experiences in the subconscious forces of the entity that are as illustrations of the material conditions that might become existent, were the entity to allow those same attitudes as the entity has taken to come to the point of interference in the relations or conditions, see? Not as an existent condition, either that is in the present or that may happen, UNLESS the same attitude is kept as the entity has had for the last few weeks, see?
Now, this is how such conditions come to the entity, and the manner of presentation to the mentality of the entity, so that same in the vision becomes as a consciousness of an imminent or of an impending condition. There has been given conditions as existent in the mental, spiritual, and the material forces of the entity, as to its (the entity's)

relations with the brother as the material basis for reasoning. There has been given that as the MENTAL reasoning, and also the approach to the subconscious forces. There having, then, been those conversations, those talks, those suggestions to the entity from others as to the neglect as might be, or as was BEING at times perpetrated or enacted by the brother on account of such and such relations existing in the mind and in the activities of the entity; then, combining these with that ability of the entity to attain through the subconscious relations of conditions as either material or as presented, this condition comes as the warning to the entity, [137], that the abilities of the brother are being raised, assisted, rather than hindered - unless the entity finds in self that condemnation that brings in action, through relativity of forces in that seen, as how the two should be as one in their varying conditions, either as from the spiritual or material sources and purposes, and THROUGH this projection in self of that at-oneness, produce IN the body-mental forces OF the brother that condition that would bring about the elements for the basis of contention, loss, and such elements for, as is seen, in most EVERY element of an entity finding fault, the greater source of same lies at one's own door.
Then, the lesson as is seen, the entity should apply self in such a way and manner as to be the one that would ASSIST IN BRINGING to self and to brother that assistance IN such ways and manners as would STABILIZE, rather than bring about contention in any way and manner by any fault of either of the individuals as such conditions might pertain to. See? Do that.
5. (Q) How am I able to experience cosmically that which [900] may do in some specific instance - that is, how does my cosmic self know that [900] will or may in some specific instance make this mistake? (A) In that way and manner as just has been given, as to the relativity of forces as exist between the two, as of the filial, material and brotherly relations, as WELL AS those as pertain to the spiritual approach OF those conditions as are existent IN the cosmic or subconscious forces - and, as is seen, and as has been explained, HOW the entity, in and at this period, experienced that which lies at the entity's own condition of thought.
