Time of Reading 11:40 to 12:00 Noon Eastern Standard Time. New York, N.Y.
1. GC: You will have before you [1786], born May 9, 1900, in Sag Harbor, L.I., N.Y., and the information given in her Life Reading through this channel on January 11, 1939. You will advise her as to how she may go about finding herself and her proper niche in this life. You will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the entity now called [1786] together with the information which has been indicated that would be helpful in the experience of the entity.
3. As we find, as has been given, the entity needs to study that which has been outlined for the entity and to go about making practical application of same in its DAILY relationships to others.
4. Not that any information would be given that would enable the entity to just pick up self and transplant to this or that place. It must be an inward development!
5. As has been outlined, first study self. What DO you desire? Is it selfish, is it only for self; is it only that there may be the gratifying of an emotion, an appetite, a physical desire? or is there not something that is more lasting, something that is desired to be of a HELPFUL force for someone else?
6. Is there really the desire to know love, or to know the experience of someone having an emotion over self? Is it a desire to be itself expended in doing that which may be helpful or constructive? This CAN be done, but it will require the LOSING of self, as has been indicated, IN service for others.
7. Do not continue to condemn self nor others. The warnings have been in respect these. There are abilities in those fields of activity of story writing. This may be accomplished, if it will go about to do same. But wishing does not do it - application only!
8. Ready for questions.
9. (Q) Have I any further contact with my late husband, [...], since he has passed on?

(A) If that is the desire, it will continue to hang on to same! If it is to be finished, and that which has been to be the development, then leave this aside.
10. (Q) Does he know of my prayers? (A) Do you wish him to? Do you wish to call him back to those disturbing forces, or do you wish the self to be poured out for him that he may be happy? Which is it you desire - to satisfy self that you are communicating, or that you are holding him in such a way as to retard? or hast thou BELIEVED the promise? Leave him in the hands of Him who is the resurrection! Then prepare thyself for same.
11. (Q) Should I continue through life alone? (A) If this seems well - or does this seem well? or is the self that you are looking for! Do something for someone else! Make their lives happy, make their lives worth while, and then there may be those experiences that will come! But arise to that consciousness that if ye would have life, if ye would have friends, if ye would have love, these things ye must expend. For only that ye give away do ye possess.
12. (Q) Should I attempt to do anything further in becoming associated with those trying to help alcoholics? (A) If the desire to write or use such in the writings, it's very well. Only in the writing, but not making this the THEME - for it should only be a portion of such.
13. (Q) What channels will bring me financial security? (A) As has been given.
14. (Q) Any further advice? (A) Do these things consistently. Be consistent with self, be consistent with others. Show thyself approved and in all good conscience to a loving Creator, and friend and Savior!
