1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, and those conditions as surround this body. In seeking that as will be most beneficial to this body at this time, there are conditions that should be considered other than those of the purely physical in their reaction in and for the developments of this body, and this body's abilities in the varied directions. First, we find a developing mind. Also a developing body, with its physical attributes calling for the satisfying of the desires of same. The mental in that position of not being satisfied, either with its own physical attributes or the present outlook for the satisfying of physical desires. Then, that which is the basis for the real development of the entity, as has been considered, should be taken into account. When there is the proper consideration given to the various experiences of the entity in the earth's plane, and that which was necessary for the entity to pass through as experience in its next appearance, THEN there may be seen that more of the spiritual side of the entity's experience is to BE considered, and more easily will it be understood that, that a body sows, and AS it sows, so shall it reap. Leave for the moment those considerations of the moment, and know that, that as is committed in mind and in deed must be met IN the manner the desire of the heart IS, as a whole - NOT as of a moment. In this, too, in considering the whole, there is seen that as has been given of old, "Seek ye first the Lord while He may be found, and ALL these things will be added UNTO you". Therefore, all force, all power, is of HIS making, and INDEED all are living, moving, and in HIM have our being. Then, in choosing for self, THIS ENTITY, THIS BODY - there will be seen that, with the proper consideration of that as has been given in that direction, the body will be able to apply self, will it be [if it will be] willing to make its will one with His, its desires to know His will first - then these material blessings, as are

counted in the material plane as accomplishments, and as social position, as power, as fame, will be added in accord to the needs of THAT individual. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) What pursuit or study can she follow in order to find independence? (A) This has been outlined to the body, and ESPECIALLY in considering the various pursuits in experiences of the earth and that necessary for the present development of same; applying self first then in KNOWING self, self's relation to the Creator, self's duties to those upon whom the entity or body materially is dependent, and self's relations to its fellow man. These must be ACCOMPLISHED in self, for that as held as a desire in the heart will be accomplished, will the body [if the body will] mentally, physically, spiritually, make self one with the ALL giving power, energy.
3. (Q) What abilities should be developed - (A) These have been answered. We are through with this reading.
