Time of Reading ..., Street, 11:00 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City, N.Y.
1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of [900], of Apt. ..., ... St., New York City, and the dreams this body had on the dates which I will give you. You will give the interpretation and lesson to be gained from each of these, as I read same to you, and you will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the entity, the enquiring mind, [900], with the dreams that come to the body from time to time. Apparently, there is a mist or cloud that rolls before the entity, and in this darkness there comes fear and trembling. This gradually takes shape into that as of home, and out of same comes the better understanding. Ready for dreams.
3. (Q) Sunday Night, Feb. 14, or Monday Morning, Feb. 15, on train N.Y. to N.O. We were in school and I was using study time to write my dreams - hiding them from the teacher. A girl handed me dreams and I was also terribly embarrassed to find [137] had written his out in plain view on the blackboard. I was copying them off when the teacher came up to me and said: "What have you on that paper - dreams?" I wrote with chalk on the paper, writing dreams and turning to the teacher said: "See - no dreams or anything there." "Turn the paper over!" she ordered. I did so and there were written the dreams. "What!" exclaimed the teacher. "They are your own dreams - not her's (indicating the girl), and we had been blaming and punishing her, while you were all the time to blame." I felt her eyes upon me, and that I was in for punishment, and was scared. (A) In this there is that correlation with the subconscious mind of other lessons as were later presented to the entity [See 900-199], and as these are seen, is as the schooling, the study, the development of the mental of the entity to that consciousness of how same should be studied. That is, as is seen in the writing of dreams, and attempting to hide same from teacher, as this: The entity sees in same that the dreams are not hidden to self. Then gain that consciousness of their application in the life of entity,

and not blame the interpretation of same to other forces that are as a guide, in the girl who would be punished for attempting to aid in the entity's development. As same is seen in that of brother writing same in plain view, that he, the brother, may see how same becomes applicable to self, would entity APPLY SAME in the ways as presented, for, as we see later [See 900-199], there is presented that same connection, in having been told that lessons have been given and there has not been gained the import of same.
4. (Q) Where have I been the cause of misplaced blame? (A) As given.
5. (Q) What is it that is wrong in myself? (A) Given.
6. (Q) Voice: "Give her color - robin - a vegetable -" indicating [136]. (A) This, as we see, applying then to that again of the entity, [900], as relates to that correlation of thought and deed as applied in subconscious forces to that of the betterment of conditions for an individual in a physical sense, see? That is, as seen, certain conditions good for an individual, see?
7. (Q) Tuesday Night, Feb. 16, or Wednesday Morning, Feb. 17. Voice: "Give her tomatoes too." (A) A continuation of that same condition as is presented, see? Love blossoms - tomatoes, see? especially in their acid there is produced in the system that which would be good for the individual, as seen through the concept of the subconscious mind of this entity towards one that the intent is held towards, see?
8. (Q) [136] and I were eating at Child's restaurant. (A) Then eat.
9. (Q) What is here meant by our eating in Child's? (A) We don't find any connection. A presentation of purely a physical.
10. (Q) Physical forces as related to [4855]. Voice: "Adultery is a matter of the heart and not action." (A) This is the intent of the subconscious in gaining to the entity that clearer understanding of the precepts as laid down by the Master: "As the heart [hart] panteth after water [in the] brook, so panteth my heart after thee," or, as is given in the understanding, "He that looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery already," see? An act and an intent, or "the thoughts are deeds, and may become crimes or miracles."
11. (Q) This either absolved or censured me - what is indicated? (A) Neither. As is given, the lesson that entity may gain, as is seen, that self condemnation may not be a hindering

element in the development of the entity for past experience. Then learn how that one is absolved from intent and purpose as set, by turning about and making whole body, mind, spirit, soul, in accord with the will of the entity, of the Whole, see?
12. We are through with this reading.
