Time of Reading 4:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Deal, N.J.
1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [900], of ... Road, Deal, N.J., and the dreams this body had on the date which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lessons of each of these, as I read same to you, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding any of these.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind of [900]. This, as we see, we have had here before. The dreams as we see that come to the body from time to time are those coordinating forces of the conscious, subconscious and superconscious forces, manifesting in a phenomenized manner, and from which the entity, [900], may gain lessons and truths, such as may be used in a physical manner, for truth is TRUTH and makes one FREE. We are ready for dream.
3. (Q) Wednesday morning, September 16, 1925, at home in Deal. Saw my brother [137] and he was ashen gray, as he gets before one of his fainting spells. I was frightened and wanted him to sit down. At first he pushed my advice aside, then went over and sat down next to a stock ticker. There he grew worse and seemed about to faint. (A) This, as we see, the physical condition presented in this phenomenized manner that gives lessons to the body-mind of [900].
As is seen in the physical condition of the brother, representing that of fear to the body [900]. The advice unheeded and the approach to the ticker, or the labors through which the entity labors or exercises the faculties of the body, the growing worse, representing then the condition that is in the manner represented in fear; that is, the entity should guard self in physical manners, as well as in operation in the stock markets, see? for as is seen in such, too strenuous forces bring the fear to the body. Remembering then that truth casts out fear, and with this foreknowledge, the entity should be able to induce the brother to give more to self in the way of recuperating from
900-127 Page 2
those conditions that would bring fear in any manner to the body, and the exercising of forces toward operations to such an extent as to cause any undue unrest regarding the outcome of such operations, see? While the physical forces may be induced to work against odds, the forces in physical being weakened, the abilities to meet resistances as come with either success or failure in operations, brings dread and fear for each, see? Then use same as the warning to be more circumspect in care for physical body, in care for operations physically in those regarding the stock operation.
4. (Q) Does this indicate any coming ill health to my brother? Any trouble to my brother or with him or both in relation to some stock transaction? (A) Rather the warning to care for same, as given. As also warning to be more circumspect in operations, see?
5. (Q) What should [900]'s immediate and future action be in reference to brother's ill health? In reference to that indicated by stock ticker? (A) That as given, see? Induce the brother, through advice, to give more care for physical conditions as have been given for the body, see?
6. (Q) What should [137]'s action be in reference to both of these represented in [900]'s dream - ill health and stock ticker? (A) As given.
7. (Q) A lady, her mother and husband, came to see my mother and myself. The lady was very charming and very beautiful. The husband wanted to cash a check or get some money. "I can get it for you," I said, "But today is Sunday and it is difficult. Wait until tomorrow, Monday." He wanted the money right away, so I took him into a bank where I knew the cashier - but no one was in the bank. We started to search for a checkbook and money. "I know the cashier here," I said, "And can get you the money - but he is not here just now. Wait until tomorrow." But he continued to search - he wanted it now. I returned to the room where the lady, her mother and my mother were. The lady talked of her work, her writing and her doings. She seemed so affectionate and kind and I wondered how her husband let her out alone so much. He was out money grubbing and she was here. I took her hand and was half surprised at no objection from her. I felt her engagement and wedding rings on her finger. Then she stood up and instead of the conventionally dressed woman, I beheld a beautiful face and figure draped in white robes. "Do you work every day?" I asked her. "That depends," she replied. "In vaudeville, I work every day but Sundays in the summertime. When I am in
900-127 Page 3
the movies I work every day. In the winter time I work everyday including Sundays." I didn't seem to need to tell her of my work - she seemed to know of my writing already. "I should like to go into the magazines," I said to her. "Would you like to go into the magazines?" I nodded, I most certainly would. "Then, I will bring you to them," she said. I knew she could and rejoiced. (A) This, as we see, the emblematical conditions presented to the body, [900], for the lessons as may be gained from same. The lady representing the work as it is being attemped by self. The husband representing the physical side, or that which prevents the body from accomplishing that being attempted in the manner as is being done. The attempt to gain the money from check, still that of self's desire to have certain or sufficient numbers in dollars before attempting to carry out wholly the work being done. The return to the lady representing again the hold same holds on the body-mind and the mental and the inner forces of the body, [900]. The approach to writing and magazine representing the manner, the way, in which the approach can and could be made with that already begun. The seeing and understanding that the unconventional dress to the body representing the unconventional manner in which the body may approach such magazines and periodicals that would carry the message as begun. The difference in the approach to the labors of same in winter, in Sunday, in the various phases, representing the different manners in which same may be approached. Some in Sunday supplement manner in a way that bring both the jest and jester. Again in the more stable manner, the magazine and periodical that are in the way of presenting truths to peoples. The happiness as is seen in the manner of the work gives the success as shall be seen through carrying out such work, for with same would come much of the world's goods, with that of a power before men in manner beyond that of dollars and cents. Study then all these and approach same through such channels as carry such articles. In the Sunday papers or supplements, in such as is seen in Life Reading. In theosophy, theology, approach through such periodicals as carry such. Many would be accepted, many would be rejected and accepted in a different manner. The correct ones would be through such as are published by The Theosophical Society, through Century, through World's Work, through the Atlantic Monthly. Through these we will find this approach as is seen would come. Winter, or reading seasons, as seen, being the one in which all days are included.
8. We are through for the present.
