1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [589], present in this room. You will give a mental and spiritual reading for this body, answering the questions I will ask you regarding all phases of his life.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [589]. In the mental and spiritual body, with this entity, the physical - too - must be taken into consideration, and even as those outlines may be given by the body for those preventative measures that others may apply in their own lives, so may the body - mentally AND physically - apply same in the experiences of self.
3. In the body-mental there are some conflicting influences, as has [have] most to do with material affairs - yet kept in that attitude of helpfulness FIRST, these may be so handled, so manipulated as to keep that same purposefulness as is the criterion for that profession that the body represents, "KEEP SMILING". In this attitude should the body ever keep self, in that at-onement, that attunement, so that those material things - as become manifestations of that thought in the mental body - are directed by that same spiritual force as makes for continued creative energy, and constructive in its every action; for that builded, that held in the mental image of one, becomes the conditions - when they (that held) become material, or crystallized into material things. The SPIRIT is willing, the FLESH is weak. Be not carnal minded. Condescend not to men of high estate. Know in whom thou hast believed, knowing He is able to keep that committed unto Him against every condition that may present itself in the experience, whether of the material things a part, of the mental worries and undertakings, ever constructive, ever will be that motive force within the life as makes for that which brings peoples to a closer knowledge of the indwelling through the spirit of the KINGDOM within; for, as has been given, many shall come from the east and the west to sit down in that kingdom. What wilt THOU

prepare as the feast for those patriarches of old? What wilt THOU prepare for thine Master? When the door is shut from within, and thou takest counsel of thine own heart, thine own purposes, thine own desires, will THIS - THIS meditation - be acceptable even in thine own sight? Will they be the gifts as THOU wouldst have presented for the labors expended? Would thou be satisfied with that as thou presentest in that kingdom? So conduct, then, thine own self in meditation, so direct thine actions in and out before men, that thou wouldst have done to thee THAT do to the other fellow. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) Should this body consider partnership with brother-in-law, Dr. [666], located at ..., Ohio? (A) A good consideration, and one worthy of being considered seriously; for many are the opportunities in THIS field as NOT presented in the present.
5. (Q) Where will I find doctor that will cooperate in partnership with me in my profession with the use of X-Ray and the Harmono - Chrome - Therapy (Mountain Sun - Dr. Carl Loeb)? (A) These, as we find, are often QUESTIONED by some - in the various schools and in the various professions, but in this place - or in Columbus with Farrand - would find such a one find cooperation, and an acceptable and WORTHY one. [Jacob H. Farrand, D.C., Columbus, Ohio]
6. (Q) In what locality could I attain the best success for the profession I have chosen for my life's work? (A) In some of the fields as have been outlined. Columbus, Springfield, Dayton, Hamilton, or such.
7. (Q) Would it be advisable at this time to install the Harmono - Chrome - Therapy equipment? (A) Best be permanently located before such.
8. (Q) Would it be advisable at this time to install X-Ray? (A) This would be very well, but THIS - too - requires permanency of location before there would be the full consideration of same. This would be common sense.
9. (Q) In what way and to whom should I consult for financial aid for the equipment I want to use with my profession? (A) With the permanent locations, these may be arranged, and just conditions may be set up WITH the manufacturers or with the peoples through whom such is distributed, or through those same channels in Indiana from which the profession is protected in its activities.
10. (Q) What method should I use to collect outstanding accounts I took over from Dr. Carter? (A) Some of these may be of necessity terminated, for the conditions as surround individuals. Do to those as owe thee, as thou wouldst be done by were you to owe them. Thou

knowest the conditions, the positions in which many have been placed. Speak along THOSE lines. More will be thought of thee, and most of all you will think more of yourself!
11. (Q) Please advise what to do with furniture in storage at ..., Ohio? (A) Take it out and use it when you locate somewhere!
12. (Q) What spiritual advice would be of benefit to this body? (A) As given. Do that - for, as has oft been given, with the use of that known, that understood in hand, more is GIVEN as that HAD is used. This applies more in spirit, possibly, then in any phase of man's experience; for MAN may separate himself from God - the Spirit - but the spirit does not separate from man; for, has it not been given, "He has not willed that ANY should be separated, but that all should come to a PERFECT knowledge and UNDERSTANDING of the kingdom that lies within"?
