Time of Reading 11:25 A. M. ..., Va.

1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [487] of ..., Virginia, and the dreams this body had on the dates which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lesson to be gained from same, as I read same to you, in a manner understandable to the mind of this body.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind of the entity, with dreams as come to the body from time to time.

3. The mind of a developing entity, in the physical plane, gathers in presentation of visions or dreams those correlations of conditions through which the entity has passed, or that which is as the moulding factor in developing mentalities of physical body. Fear, see?

4. Then, these may, in this manner, be presented or given to the entity, so that this mind may gain those lessons for the developing body. Ready for dream.

5. (Q) January 19, 1926. "Mother and Daddy had left Brother and me alone at home. Brother was in the dark and holding a sponge in his hand that made a noise when moved through the air. I got scared of being in the dark and Brother turned on the victrola." (A) This presents, then, to the body, that of fear of being left alone, on account of those indiscretions, or lack of attention in self, in finding and doing that as is presented to the entity for its own good. Then the scare, fright, fear, on account of this condition, is that which as awakens in the entity that necessity of controlling self in the way that will bring the more pleasant, more pleasing, conditions for self, and more joy, pleasure and happiness in the lives of others. See?

6. We are through for the present.
