1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces; giving the conditions which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth plane, giving time, place and the name, and that in each life which built or retarded the development for the entity; giving the abilities of the entity in the present, that to which it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [464].
3. In giving the interpretations of the records here, much might be said as respecting these as well as the whole of the entity's experience through the material planes, also regarding the urges that arise from astrological aspects.
4. However, the astrological aspects are being gradually replaced by the urge of the more material aspect for the moment. The latent influence, though, is toward the spiritual.
5. These interpretations, then, are chosen with the desire and purpose that this be a helpful experience for the entity, enabling it to fulfillthose purposes for which it entered this sojourn and to realize that life is a continuity; that only its relative relations change with the various aspects of an individual entity's consciousness; that one grows. For, as in the present experience, the thoughts as a developing body in its tender years of material sojourn are not those of the mature individual. For, there are disappointments, urges of various natures latent and manifested by the reaction of the mental self as respecting circumstance.
6. Yet, there is a way - and that as manifested through the mental self. For, the harmonic triune of body, mind and soul depends upon that coordination, that cooperation, of
464-32 Page 2
keeping each phase of the entity's consciousness attuned to that the entity has chosen as its ideal. Also it depends upon how well in thought and in deed and in act the entity adheres to that ideal
7. When a composite view is taken of this entity's record, with the astrological AND the manifested as well as other material manifestations in the material plane - we find these as latent and manifested urges:
8. One that is very determined in mind as to having its own way, and usually accomplishes same - or else so alters the circumstance until no one else has his own!
9. One that is rather inclined to be called by others "curious" as respecting secret orders, cults, cisms [isms? schisms?] or the like. To know in self what is carried on under such conditions has oft caused the entity to pronounce judgments without considering the effect such might have upon others or upon self.
10. One that is especially inclined to be rather domineering as to conditions that surround the entity. And when the entity makes excursions or trips, or visits, the entity is inclined to change EVERYTHING to the better situations for others. And, though the entity may oft be very determined, there is a tenderness, a lightheartedness deep, latent within, that finds manifestation and makes for helpful forces in the experience of all who may come in contact with the entity.
11. Thus we may find these as the astrological aspects in the experience, latent and manifested; though know, as we have oft indicated, that no urge astrologically or from physical environment may exceed the urge of the entity's WILL!
12. Thus we find there are the needs, the necessity for this entity - as every other, to know the ideal, the author of same; and in the ideal let it not be concerned so much with what others should do, but what self may do spiritually, mentally, physically, to make that ideal a practical experience day by day.
13. Astrologically - Uranus, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter become the ruling forces.
14. Hence we find the extremes, whether in thought, in physical or mental relationships, become a part of the general as well as specific experiences of the entity in the present.
15. Venus brings an adaptability, a working with the hands, in design, in house, in home, in the things that make for greater conveniences and greater pleasures; and most of all greater appreciations in the experiences and relationships,
464-32 Page 3
and in the activities of the entity.
16. Thus, as we find with the Uranian, disappointments and discouragements have oft a greater effect upon the entity than upon many of those about the entity. These cause those extremes.
17. In Jupiter we find the benevolent forces. Thus the inclinations for the entity to improve the environs for everyone, wherever the entity may sojourn or even journey for a day, two days, a week. This love of travel also arises from this peculiar or unusual phase of this part of the entity's consciousness. The likes and yet dislikes of changes. The desires and yet would keep from meeting others. These become the confusing forces in the experience of the entity at times.
18. As to the urges arising from the appearances in the earth - not all may be indicated at once. Many the entity has passed - for this experience. Many the entity will find as a part of its experience in the present.
19. Before this the entity was in the land of the present nativity AND sojourn; for, during that we call here the Dearborn period, the entity journeyed from its present native land to those portions about what is now Toledo and the northernmost portions of Indiana and portions of Michigan.
20. For, the entity was a French-Indian; thus being of those activities that made special reference to relationships and associations with the home as well as with various groups and various individuals - thus the associations with those groups about Fort Dearborn and the activities there.
21. While if determined according to the morals of the present day the experience was not beautiful, we find that so far as the activities, purposes, intents and hopes were concerned it brought to many the associations that were a helpful influence in the entity's experience.
22. Thus those latent influences of the good conversationalist, the tendencies to improve surroundings in whatever environ the entity may be; though oft making those impressions as of such being a hardship, the latent hope of the entity is to be allowed to do same - as an expression of self-defense oft, or self-depreciation - which should not be the expressions in the present.
23. The name then was Nancy Montrecency - or Montrecentrcy - for both names were used by the parents of the entity.
24. Before that the entity was in the French land during the early settlings there from the Roman activities, as well as the experiences of those from the Grecian land - which made for the entity a period of advancement.
464-32 Page 4
25. These were those periods when there was the first establishing there of homes other than in caves, hills or the like. The entity was active in urging its associates towards activities for the preservation of the fireside, or the home; the groups and individuals becoming more in that attitude of seeking INDIVIDUAL companionships through the experience.
26. The entity gained from the united effort, though in the individual way or manner. In the present from those urges we find the desire for cleanliness about the home, about the specific rules and orders as would regulate activities of groups. Also there are the powers, or latent urges, for the knowledge of groups or individuals that bind themselves in secret societies, orders, or organizations. These urges arise from those experiences there.
27. The name then was Mardunde.
28. Before that the entity was in the Egyptian land during those trials and turmoils from the rebellious forces, and those activities which had produced same.
29. The entity was among those who sought for the return of the Priest to the place of direction, though of the Natives during that particular period when there were such FLUID activities of the Young King who had come into the land, as well as of the Atlanteans. The entity succeeded in making overtures to her own groups in such ways as to bring eventually into its own experience the authority over the own groups thereabout, which brought both good and bad influences; for the entity tended to take vengeance - because of its position - over those whom the entity felt had made hardships for the self.
30. Through the latter portion of the experience, though, the entity gained; then in the name Telkor.
31. As to the abilities of the entity in the present, then:
32. Study first thy own purposes. Know thy own ideals, spiritually, mentally, materially - that they are one, yet each in their own phase of experience must be met in their own way or manner.
33. Trust in that which is the fulfilling of that ideal, by self's adherence to same.
34. Condemn not self nor others.
35. Find in the home, in the relationships with others, those opportunities for the helpful influences that are a part of thy experience.
36. Keep self from condemnation, or from condemning others.
37. Ready for questions.
38. We are through for the present.
