1. GC: You will have before you [900], who is present in this room. You will give a mental and spiritual reading, with special reference to the following dreams, which [900] has had in the last three weeks, and will give the interpretation of these dreams. The first dream that he would see Mr. Cayce in three weeks. The second, one relating to his father's appearance as he last saw him. The third, where he was given the vision of the borderland of Eternity and was given the impression that he should write. You will also answer any questions that I might ask you regarding these.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, with the mental and spiritual attributes of this body.
3. In the mental forces, as has been given, the entity and individual has the capacity for much mental development, when the cares of the world, or the lusts of the eye, do not interfere with that spiritual force that should guide and direct the mental activities in each life. Not that the body in mental proclivities, or action, should become pessimistic, sour or dormant along lines pertaining to such, but in moderation, ever knowing that in the correct development, in every entity in mental forces, must be in that direct way, taking of many elements, for all have their relation one to another and each soul, for of the mental the soul feeds.
4. The body must be well rounded in physical-mental attributes, that the soul may develop and that the spiritual will remain with that entity as the guiding force in the correct and upright channels.
5. As to the dreams, we have in these those elements that enter into the mental forces and partake of those entity's conditions as are exercised through the various attributes of the mind, the soul and the physical forces.
6. In the first, the condition merely representing that projection with the activity of sub-conscious forces, acting with desire in the body, which is an attribute of the mental

activities in an entity. This is to be classed in the manner the entity, or mental forces, sees fit, ever remembering all dreams are but the speech of the conditions in the mental, physical, or sub-conscious self.
7. In the second, we have that projection in a vision, or the action of the spiritual in its relation to the soul forces of the body. This gives the same projection as has been given. Each entity leaves its impressions in the physical or earth plane. Each entity may communicate with such by attuning the soul and spirit forces to the plane, ever being controlled by the mental activities of such conditions. Hence, this partakes of the spiritual forces, the soul forces, the sub-conscious forces, the earthly forces, as manifested in the dream and should be studied by the body through mental forces and acquire the understanding of these conditions.
8. In the next, we find through the sub-conscious and super-conscious the projection of that injunctions as has been given this entity. "This day there has been set before thee good and evil. Choose thou." In this we find the possibilities of the development, and is given, and was given, as a warning to the body to be directed in that channel that would bring the greater joys, for with the study as would lead from the third the understanding of the first two would become the normal conclusions of a well balanced mental, spiritual and sub-conscious force in the body.
9. Appearance in conditions as given, the relation between the spirit of the entity in the beyond and that superconsciousness in the entity of [900], called (and improperly so) by some as the spiritual appearance. It is the attuning of the two consciousnesses one with the other, for we find the guide of [900] is that of the father.
10. (Q) How may this body attune his mind with that of his father who has gone from this earth's sphere? (A) Just as has been given. Study into the Borderland, as has been given; with the study, the thought, the lapsing of the self into these conditions, where the consciousness is laid aside and the superconsciousness rules, we may come into such communications, as this body has in sleep. Not well that this be dwelt upon at all times, for we bring to the other entity distresses at times.
11. (Q) This body was told to write in the third dream. What should he write. (A) Those things he has been given the glimpse of in the Borderland, or of those conditions that come from information that comes from Borderland.

12. (Q) What is the interpretation of this Borderland he saw in his dream? (A) The vision of the possibilities of gaining and understanding of conditions that do exist, may exist, and will exist in the sub-conscious, super-conscious or souls of individuals that live, have lived, may live in earth's plane. This is, and should be considered, as the vision as of Daniel.
13. (Q) Was this dream given to warn him of anything wrong he was doing? (A) There is warning in all of these. Hence the last, "Study or look into the Borderland." Nothing wrong toward the entity's personal actions, save as the warning of the usage of the person's facilities and possibilities of developing for the Borderland.
14. We are through for the present.
