3. (Q) January 27, 1926. "Dreamed [294] and I were at Hopkinsville, at his mother's it seemed, and Mama and Aunt [1795] were coming in to take us to cemetery or funeral. Mrs. [3776] seemed to be well and going with us, as instead of the open surrey we used to have, it was like a closed car, and we felt it wouldn't give her cold to go. Then seemed [243] and I were talking. She looked and seemed so worried. It seemed Mrs. [3776] wanted to go to Mary's for a week and we knew it wasn't best; rather knew she wasn't even able to get there, and we were discussing how best to do. Then seemed we were in a church or large building, presumably in Selma, as I saw so many people I knew in Selma. [294] and I were very crowded in the pew, until a large lady moved down and made room for us. Then saw [5683] come down the aisle, followed by someone pushing what looked like a tea wagon, only it had a pillow and blanket on it, followed by all the B's, Mrs. [242] carrying a tiny baby. We felt anxious to see the baby. Then it appeared right at us, but could talk, had a mouth full of teeth. It was a lovely baby, just like it's mother, [5683]. Then it was back on blanket - a tiny baby. Then [487] and other children went for a drink of water, which was down in front, when a little Negro boy grabbed glass away, but his mother quieted all and made peace. Then noticed other Negroes there and wondered. Then it seemed to be a large department store. I saw lots of candy and ate some." (A) In this, we find there are many various conditions as are presented to the mind, through this correlation of thought, study, of the mental forces, NOW in vision, correlated by the subconscious forces of entity, in which

those conditions that to the mental forces appear as absurdities; yet in the vision appear as realities, as does also times, places, changes, positions, and the various conditions as are presented, being as all in one place, or one condition; yet in the physical-mental mind all felt to be in various places, various conditions, various circumstances.
Then, the whole presents to the entity as emblematical conditions, as are seen, known, or felt in the life, and the lesson should be as: That all force as is seen in the physical world is the phenomenized form of the reality of the spiritual forces as make up Universal Force.
Then, to analyze the various conditions, for we see these are presented through those emblematical conditions that are known to the mental mind, and therefore draw the direct application to the body visioning same. That is, as seen in place, with car of peculiar make, character; lending aid, assistance to someone, and the pleasure felt in same. The vision changing to that in going in action, that as a pleasure to one, a detrimental condition to another, in the same action; yet, as seen, ALL this as of one force. And then the change again, as is seen in place, with gathering, and peoples as seen and known; with the crowding in of the individual to places, as is seen, that ROOM is made for the entity; and the entering of those known, with conditions seeming unreal for place or circumstance, with vision of an entity that changes in the manner and way with desire, and again seen, vision of others as appear of low estate, and mingled with those of the rest, with conditions; yet showing how that their development may bring good or evil in their lives. Changing again in same, to same peoples, yet under different circumstance, see?
This, then, all brings to the entity that, under the various changes of the mental development, as the study of phenomenized forces is presented to the mind, these various conditions as are seen, as in this dream are to be presented from time to time. As position of self with car, as position of self with others in distress, as position of self with others, where the crowding of ideas is seen, and unreasonable conditions as presented by people of UNQUESTIONABLE worth, and also of questionable place and position, as are seen in places of worship, in places of exchange.
Then, the lesson that the entity should gain: That all force is of the Creator of Force, and the entity a part of
538-20 Page 3
same, as entity uses or applies same in life of those whom it contacts. See?
