Time of Reading 11:20 to 11:50 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia.
1. GC: You will have before you the life existence in the earth plane of [1523], nee [...], born Dec. 2, 1908, in Oceana, Va., and the earthly existence of this entity as Margo Meguiette, in France during the early Louis's. You will give a biographical life of the entity in that day and plane of earthly existence, from entrance - and now - into the earth's plane, and the entity's departure, giving the development or retarding points in such an existence. Then you will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them, concerning the associations in the present from that period, and how she may meet or use constructively the problems arising from such.
2. EC: Yes, we are given the records here of that entity now known as or called [1523], and the records of the entity in those experiences during the periods of the Louises in France.
3. In giving the interpretations, and in outlining a life sketch, it would be well to understand something of the period, the activities, and those conditions.
4. The entity, in its associations, was among those who had been of the peoples raised to power through the activities and abilities of those in close associations with the Louises in their reign as the rulers in France.
5. Hence the entity was of the families of those who were in authority, and - through those relations - sought the experiences among the nobility of the period, as called.
6. Those conditions that had to do with the court, as well as the activities in the diplomatic relations, were parts of the entity's experience, as it developed and grew to womanhood.
7. Attracting then the attention of Louis - this brought about the companionships as a consort; thus bringing activities into the experience about which there were many questionings, not only on the part of the relations or the
1523-13 Page 2
families and their activities, but eventually to self - when there were the replacements by the associations from other courts.
8. These brought into the experience of the entity, then, hate, disturbance, desire to be in the position to cause others to suffer.
9. And the entity, in companionship with others, sought to undermine those activities - as to bring about disturbance with those in authority.
10. This - as ever from the mental and spiritual forces - only brought the turning to the gratifying of material desires, or - eventually, to this entity - the renouncing of the world and the turning to the church.
11. Consequently, in that portion of the experience when the entity attempted to take the veil, there came about two very disturbing experiences.
12. For, after the periods when there had been those changes wrought in the determination and in the activities of the entity to renounce all of the world, Louis AGAIN looked upon the entity and desired the body.
13. This brought confusion. Yet, with the aids from the very MANNER in which the efforts were made, it brought that great disturbance between the church and the Louis's; that found greater activity in the cardinal's relationships and activities through the rest of the experience in the land.
14. Hence, though disturbed in body and in mind, the entity remained true to the vows through the rest of that experience, in the attempt to make amends for the thoughts, the deeds and the purposes through the earlier portion of the sojourn there.
15. The entity's latter life, then, was one of self-sacrifice; but never WHOLLY, mentally, in accord with the physical activities.
16. In the present experience, in making application of the lessons in what may be termed the karmic influences arising from same:
17. To be sure, problems, associations and activities have arisen, will arise, do arise.
18. That means, then, the entity is meeting self and NOT another's problems.
19. First find thy purpose, thy activity, that thou desirest to do; and with the might, and with the ideal, keep the self true to thy purpose.
20. Ready for questions.
21. (Q) With which of the Louis's was I closely associated? (A) The 14th, leading into the 15th.
22. (Q) Was I associated with [1650] in that period? if
1523-13 Page 3
so, in what way, and what are the urges from same in relation to the present problem? (A) He was the one ye used to counteract those experiences! Draw thine own parallel! Ye are doing the same. What will ye do with each?
23. (Q) Did I know Agatha Bielle, now [288], if so what were the associations? (A) In that period when each had taken the convent, or veil, yes.
24. (Q) Did I come in contact with the activities surrounding her child? [294]? (A) Under the care for same. For, that was a portion of the activity as indicated that brought the greater joy to the experience - the tending or caring for children; though the entity - that is, the child - died under or during those experiences.
25. (Q) What causes the emotional reactions to the opening or closing of a door? (A) How many times and how oft has there been the experience of things going on behind the door, and the listening at same, in the court!
26. (Q) Why do I feel depressed and lonely at nightfall? (A) This is the common lot of man. For, the day and the night are one in man's own experience - and these come as parts of the emotions. Very few - but many - find that period of the gloaming as the period of expectancy. Others find it as the period in which they are being left alone. For, ye were oft - as have been many - left at eventide.
27. (Q) Would it be indicated at this time whether or not this is the disturbance referred to for 1941? (A) And it hasn't finished yet! What will ye do about it? It is! [See 1523-13, Par. R3.]
28. (Q) Suggest affirmation helpful to all in this problem? (A) HERE, O GOD, AM I, TOSSED BY THE CARES AND DESIRES OF LIFE IN THE MATERIAL WORLD. CREATE THOU IN MY MIND AND BODY, O GOD, THE RENEWING OF THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, OF HELPFULNESS, IN SUCH MEASURES THAT MY BODY, MY MIND, MY SOUL MAY KEEP IN ACCORD, IN ATTUNE TO THAT COMMAND AS THE MASTER GAVE - "I CONDEMN THEE NOT: GO AND SIN NO MORE."
29. (Q) Regarding the abilities especially from that period, please advise as to the manner in which I may influence or help bring more of constructive purposefulness into the life of [ex-husband] [2508], considering my purposes and that which is being builded with my present husband, [1650]. (A) This may be answered only in self, as has been indicated. As has been seen here, there were those periods
1523-13 Page 4
in which doubt and desire overcame the purpose. DO NOT let it reoccur.
30. (Q) Would it be advisable to tell [1650] of my desires and purposes regarding this problem - or to in any way seek his help? (A) To thine own undoing?
31. (Q) What in the past associations with [2508] gives me the feeling that no difficulty is beyond my ability when I think in terms of our meeting the difficulty together - this being true only as a part of the day dreams which gives a buoyancy and zest to my daily activities? (A) Because ye felt that he turned to thee again! Do not fool thine own self!
32. (Q) What causes that feeling on the part of each of the need to talk with or just see one another in passing? (A) That which is the basis of desire; one of those destructive forces, one of those creative forces, dependent upon its use!
33. (Q) With my desire and purpose to help [2508], advise as to whether I should counsel with him, encouraging him to use the guidance he has been given in his physical reading? (A) Let him stand on his own feet, not on yours!
34. (Q) In what manner can I keep this force which seems to draw us together from time to time, from interfering with the oneness I am attempting to reach with [1650]? (A) To thine own self be true.
