Time of Reading ... Street, 4:00 to 4:25 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Body and enquiring mind. Ques. concerning his mental and material affairs.)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [877]; and those conditions mental and material that are a portion of the problems for the body at this time.
2. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Relating to financial affairs: When, to whom and for what price will I sell my Sands Point house? Is there anything further for me to do to accomplish same? (A) As we find, these matters handled through those channels that have in part been set in motion would in the early part of the present season accomplish same for the body. As to whom individually, this - to be sure - would depend upon those to whom the approach is made. The price should be somewhere near to that which has already been indicated. This may be handled by the advertising of same in those quarters or through those channels in which such estates may be and are the more often handled. This is a way and manner in which it may be consummated, as we find. To be sure, this appears rather indefinite as to WHOM or at what price, but the efforts must be made on the part of those desiring to dispose of same.
4. (Q) When would be the best time for me to sell my Stock Exchange seat and what price should I ask for same? (A) As we find, before or by the middle of October, or between the 12th and 25th of October present year, stocks or those conditions as related to same will be at the most favorable period for this present season - or for this year. And then at that period would be the most propitious time to dispose of the stocks and of the Stock Exchange seat. The price then should be in keeping with what the sale of same would be during that particular period. This with the real estate and with the stocks should make the financial

situations for the body in a much more satisfactory state, and should clear the situation in such a manner financially that the body-mind may enter into those activities that are most desired by the body.
5. (Q) Will these pay all my debts and clear up completely my financial position and give me sufficient capital to enable me to make the transition to my right work, free from financial worries? (A) As indicated, these should clear the situation in such a manner that the body may go about the activities desired.
6. (Q) Will I be able to sell my other assets, participations, stocks, etc., without loss? When and how? (A) In the greater part. At the period as indicated will be the most favorable time for such activities, as we find, during this present year. If there is the desire to wait, then such favorable periods would come again about the 15th of February the next year. But do not go beyond those periods of March of that year, for the greater advantage for the self at this time.
7. (Q) Relating to my proper work or activity: As soon as my financial position is clear and I am thereby free from financial burdens and responsibilities to those who have helped me, I want to discontinue my present activities in the business world and return to the International banking business. My urge is to become associated with the very best bank or banking organization in the world; best in every way, including name, prestige, character, ideals, morals, policies, capital, experience, ability, desire to serve, desire to progress, expand, etc., etc. - the VERY BEST. My idea is to become as soon as possible the GENERAL INTERNATIONAL REPRESENTATIVE of such an institution, to TRAVEL for same on general or special missions, to investigate and report, advise and counsel on general or specific conditions, problems, plans, etc., in various places, etc., and generally to act as a liaison, advisor and counsellor between and to this institution and its clients, its associates and its friends both present and potential; perfecting and expanding the best possible relationships between this institution and all with whom it contacts and all whom it serves. In other words, my idea is to be and function as this institution's "AMBASSADOR AT LARGE," linking it with the best class of clients, advising and counselling regarding their relationships with each other and their services to each other. I feel that such a position would give me an opportunity, which I so desire, to place my talents, my experience, my ability and my character at work in the best possible way and enable me to be of real
877-4 Page 3
service to not only the institution but also to its clients. In so serving, I feel I would be functioning in harmony with the best that is in me and in tune with God's plan for me. Such service as above should and would give me wide scope and unlimited opportunities and contacts and enable me not only to bring about happy and harmonious relationships between "Banker and Client" but also to bring about such relationships between man and God, man and man, man and the universe. And I long for such a chance to serve in this way. I long to help all who are seeking an understanding of the TRUTH. I long to explain and help all to understand that "ALL IS ONE," that GOD - the I AM of all of us is the base of all, of everything and the key to all knowledge, all success, all progress, all power, all understanding. And, I feel that such a position and activity in the international banking field would give me the best possible chance to "so let my light shine" that those seeing my "works" - my success, my activity, my character, my methods - would want to know "how and why" and thereby give me the opening to show them the real WAY and help them understand the TRUTH in their own way and language and then be able themselves to put it in to ACTION in their own spheres of influence and thereby, in their turn, assist others to come closer to "OUR FATHER" - the "I AM" of which we are all now "SONS" (although many may not yet be awakened) and act as "SONS." I feel that the above is absolutely correct for me. Am I not right? (A) Correct.
8. (Q) If I am right, what is the right banking institution for me to become associated with? (A) One of the nature that combines the American, the English and the French associations as one. For these represent those things in keeping with that set as the ideal by the entity itself. This may include ANY of those WITH whom the entity has had SOME affiliation and association. The policies and ideals in these connections have not at all times been in line with that set, but the activities, the successes, the endeavors of the entity in these associations that may be made in same will bring about a most extensive activity and - little by little - accomplish that desired. For such an ideal put INTO actuality in associations of this nature, of an international nature between groups in varied activities such as the activity would necessitate, is that sorely needed in the hearts and souls of men - and would have a fast hold; that is, the work itself, at this most OPPORTUNE time.

Keep the ideal, and see that the associations, the presentations of self in such an affiliation keep the entity aware of its soul. The requirements will be mostly patience, persistence and CONSISTENCY on the part of the entity.
9. (Q) How should I proceed to make the association? (A) By making those connections with such an organization that has its representatives or its workers in the various fields.
10. (Q) What terms should I ask for? What compensation? (A) That nominally considered in such organizations, which is the one and a half to two and a half percent.
11. (Q) What title? (A) It has been presented as to the ideal of the title, and this would be the way and manner in which it is best to present same - as we find.
12. (Q) What scope? (A) The WORLD!
13. (Q) When will I make the association, and where? (A) When the attempt is made! This should be done by the early portion of the coming year, as indicated; provided, to be sure, other conditions have been adjusted - and there is the opportune time for the beginning of such an activity.
14. (Q) What else should I do to make the proper association in such a way as to enable me to function as outlined above? (A) That which is set is an IDEAL way and manner. To make same PRACTICAL, then, in the experience day by day is that manner in which the individual may make self adaptable and efficient in such a service. It is little by little. For to give self in such a service, setting same as the ideal, means to the individual and for the individual that he must LIVE same day by day. Being His, the God-force in activity, is just being kind, sincere, honest - first with thy friend and then to thyself.
