3. (Q) Saturday morning, Oct. 22, 1927. "Lincolns or some visitors coming or leaving. Miss [635] studying a reading, saying she could be just as enthusiastic and 'sold' on it as she had previously been indifferent. We went out to get a prescription filled. Later I was walking to school with someone and found SEVERAL fountain pens scattered along the way - later it seemed they were pistols. Passed some kind of contraption that was going to cause an explosion - ran past it (by myself then) and called back to a little boy to run the other way instead of crossing street and coming on. Turned and went another way, running through a muddy road - everything seemed dark and threatening - passed some people who looked at me and seemed to be in sympathy, or understood that I was making some supreme effort." (A) In this emblematical way and manner we find the various conditions of the mind of the body, in its evolution, as it were, respecting various conditions in the mental mind of the body.
In that first vision respecting reading and the information as given, that the body-consciousness of self may gain - will it apply through those informations given in readings - that to meet the needs of self, and, as seen, this is the prescription for SELF.
In the walk, and pens, and pistols, representing that of the

mental attitude towards individuals whom body has written to, and the change as may come with same by harsh words in the way of that called, or as will produce explosives in the minds of some. ["Words once spoken can never be recall'd."]
In the muddy road, and the sympathy felt, that with the clarifying of self's own mental attitude there will come that sympathy, knowledge, understanding from others that is NOT as pity, but of glory, or lauding the efforts. APPLY these in the life, for these apply to the mental building of the body.
4. We are through.
