1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, Edgar Cayce - this we have had before.
2. That the body seeks to know those interpretations and lessons to be gained through the experiences of the body-conscious and body-mind in dream, is well - and bespeaks that there WILL be given OFT - that THROUGH this experience, or character of same - much that will be helpful, enlightening, and well for the body to know. Well that the body HEED those warnings and those lessons as may be gained and given in these channels. Ready for dreams.
3. (Q) Dream of Monday morning, 9/14/31, in which I seemed to be trying to fix the yard and found it all undermined with refuse and seeping water. (A) This, as seen, is emblematical of conditions that in many ways surround the body in its association with individuals who would, in any manner, attempt to gloss over those undermining conditions that would bring reproach upon those sources, those channels, through which help, aid, understanding, enlightenment, may come for many.
Be sure that each and every attempt in any direction is grounded, and FOUNDED, in the Christ Jesus; for HE is the foundation, the author, the finisher, of all good that may come to anyone THROUGH these channels.
Remember the likening that was made by Him, "Be not as the scribes and Pharisees, who make long prayer, who love to be seen in public places, who love to be well-spoken of. They are as whitened sepulchres, BEAUTIFUL to look upon but are full of dead men's bones!"
Let not thine good be evilspoken of through any attempt to interest, or to INFLUENCE, those of affluence or in high places, and BELITTLING same in and through the desires of their own selves.

Be mindful in thy going ins and coming outs. Be TRUE to that THOU KNOWEST, and be sure the foundation is in Him.
4. (Q) Does this dream refer to any specific or special condition to be mindful of at this time? (A) ALL conditions that exist in the present, and in the conditions as seen so imminent in the present by those who WOULD aid. Be not led astray, GLOSSING over anything - see? [GD's note: 9/26/31 See 257-73, Par. 12-A--16-A in re closing of Cayce Hospital, legal aspects, etc.]
5. (Q) Dream of [this a.m.] Tuesday morning, 9/15/31. The Norfolk Group were gathered for the reading on their first lesson [See 262-1]. [295] sat down by my side, laid her hand on mine and spoke to the group - saying that, with their permission and mine, she would tell them what the reading was going to tell each to do. [560] said, "Well, [295], I've been expecting that all the time." [295] said, "Have you?" She answered, "I certainly have." Then all the group laughed. [295] seemed set back, not knowing whether to go on or not. She asked me if she should go on, and I said, "Certainly, if you have anything to tell them, go ahead." Then she began to tell them.
I don't remember what she told each to do, except that she said, "We will have a healing circle. [993] will be the leader, [560] will be the interpreter of what each want and how the circle is to pray for the individual, and we will have spiritual healing." She chose [993], Mrs. [69], Mrs. [2112], Mr. [2124], [341], and [560]. [993] insisted that [295] should be the leader, but [295] said that [993] should be the leader.
Then I saw a place I had never seen before. [295] was doing the talking, and they were trying to decide as to which hour was the hour for prayer. [295] said, "We will have prayer twice each day, at seven o'clock in the morning and six o'clock in the evening." They all said they couldn't be there twice a day all the time, and [295] said, "If we are in earnest we will be here - and that's the correct time." Some said, "Well, that's the Mohammedan hour of prayer." [295] said, "I know it, but that's the right time."
Then I saw them preparing the breathing exercises and the manner in which they were to act for that particular thing that [560] pointed out which they were to do, and [295] was leading them.

(A) This, as has been seen, is as the promise that was given [in 262-1] that each in his or her individual way and manner would be GIVEN a vision, a message, as to his or her part or portion in the undertaking to which the group - AS a group; individuals, AS individuals - had pledged themselves.
As indicated, there had been left a most important part of a program that should be BEGUN with the studies undertaken from time to time. In not seeing what each was to give to the particular LESSON, they WERE each to determine and ask in their own way, for their OWN enlightenment.
As seen, the body could lead in that portion or part of the work, aided and abetted by those who were seen in the vision as it happened.
Well, then, that this group - when others have given, or sought to know their part - that this group as seen, the seven, be given that as an ADDITIONAL portion of their part in the work.
To be sure, this will be altered as to meeting, as to times, yet eventually this group may hold - with even THOUSANDS of others - such a prayer for those who are sick or afflicted in any manner, and they to whom the will is given will receive that they seek through the efforts of these who were with Him.
6. We are through.
