1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [429], Apt. ..., N.Y.C. You will answer the questions which we will ask you regarding this entity's associations and contemplated connections in various phases of his life.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [429], and those conditions as surround the body, physically and mentally. Also the various connections, associations, and relations. These are varied in their aspects, but - in the physical must the body take the warnings, that the physical may be able to be that channel through which the mental MAY manifest. These should be given due consideration. Those conditions as exist in the soft tissue of the head and throat; especially those conditions in antrum and in the throat proper; also those relationships with same, as respecting the digestive system, and the MENTAL reactions that the body makes towards physical relationships must be kept in accord with that as is attempting to be made manifest by the body-mental, the body-physical. Ready for questions.

mentally and physically.

When the offer is made, the hands will be full! Won't need to be spread out over too many fields!
11. (Q) How could entity arrange to keep up The ... [N.Y.] Synagog while partially supporting himself at ..., [N.J.]? (A) The IDEAL as is IN same may be propagated by the teachings and by the lecturings, that will come in accord WITH those efforts and with those activities of the entity.

Do not be two-faced in any service. Do not be the appearance in one way and the inner life not satisfactory to self. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n office " " Datastician
