1. GC: You will have before you the life existence in the earth plane of [1968], born November 22, 1910, in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, and the earthly existence of this entity in that of Ar-ba-ten in the Egyptian Land, and you will give a biographical life of the entity in that day and plane of earthly existence, from entrance - and how - into the earth's plane, and the entity's departure, giving the development or retarding points in such an existence.
2. EC: Yes, yes we have the records here of that entity now known as or called: [1968].
3. In giving the biographical sketch of the entity's earthly existence as Ar-ba-ten in the Egyptian land, in giving the interpretation so that there may be application in the present, something of the happenings in an outline should be indicated.
4. As has been indicated, the entity's entrance was during those periods when there were the turmoils and strifes because of the activities of the Priest. The entity was among those who had not been purified, but with the return of the Priest to what might be called the religious purposes in that period, that there might be unity between the natives and those who had been overrunners of the land, and then with the entrance of the Atlanteans, there became the necessity of the united effort which was accomplished under the leadership or direction of Ra Ta from the spiritual, or mental and spiritual angles of the experience.
5. The entity then, Ar-ba-ten, was one of those who passed through the Temple of Sacrifice, indicating how here there were those activities in the attempt to make or bring about the more perfect bodies, those not altogether in keeping, but hastening the law of the activities which would bring the more perfect bodies. Thus the Temple of Sacrifice was what would today be termed as the hospital or means for eliminating in varied manners, operative much, those
1968-10 Page 2
appendages which hindered from the more perfect bodies, that might be brought to fruition in the offsprings of the body, that there might be the more universal form and figure in that which eventually manifested in the sons of God, through the lineage of the chosen of the Father.
6. In this the entity became the more perfect channel for offspring. Then in the Temple Beautiful was the interpretation of the manners of living, the interpreting of relationships between individuals, or the educational program as it would be termed in the present. The entity passed through these with the abilities to assist in aiding others in making their choices for that which would be called or termed, in the length of the day here, as vocational; where the entity would fit into those activities in church, as would be called, or state, for preparations of individuals to fill positions. For, as has been taught or learned in some, through the periods of gestation there may be those formations in mind, in body, as to make what the offspring might be, as to what they would fill, or places they would fill, as those entered into the experience of the earth existence.
6. Please give such information regarding past experience, if any, with which may be used as a helpful influence in my life as well as his.
7. Also [...] [S...]
7. These the entity did well and was in those positions of contributing that which later became active in the rulers of, and the directing of influences for good in that land, as well as in other lands.
8. Should I make any further attempt toward a closer friendship with [S...]?
8. Thus, as has been indicated and as should be, the entity may in this experience be the mother of those who may fill high places; and there needs be that those who fill high places in the present, and the more so for the days to come, be well grounded in the law of the Lord. For it is perfect and will convert the souls of men.
9. So in the application of self in the present Study first to show thyself in body, in mind, in purpose as one seeking to be a channel of blessings to others, keeping self unspotted from the world, condemning none, and as ye do this ye may become that channel through which help, understanding yea, many, many individuals may come to know the Lord. Remember as ye apply self, read, study how Hannah dedicated herself in body, in mind and gave, not by word, but by activity as well, her son to the glory of God.
9. Did I make the right decision in refusing to marry him?

10. As ye practice, as ye apply this in thy experience, ye may set thy face so that thy prayers, thy supplications may be heard, and He will not withhold any good thing from those who seek His coming. Thus, may ye apply in this life thy purposes to become the mother of those who may bless the nation.
10. That I may not fail in marrying the one best for me to aid in being a channel for the sons indicated - please advise me as to whom I should marry and how and where shall I meet him?
11. Ready for questions.
11. For the purpose of the sacred service entrusted to me - please give me any information that will enable me to realize the purpose for which I was given material expression - now?
12. (Q) As Ar-ba-ten, in Egypt, what understanding was gained from Ra Ta which will enable me to carry out the purpose for which I made this appearance? (A) Just as has been indicated, realizing this. For since Ra Ta's experience there has come in the earth that individual who presented himself as the sacrifice which was holy, which was acceptable. He has shown the way. His ways, seek. As ye apply His purposes, His hopes, may ye fit thyself, for the purposes chosen in the Egyptian period may be as a purpose in the present experience.
12. Any other advice that would be helpful to me at this time?]
13. (Q) Please advise how I may go about preparing for the sons who will become emissaries? (A) Just as has been given. As outlined, first there must be the choice of thy associate, thy companion, thy husband. These, as have been outlined, must be in accord, or men of God, keeping God's purposes, God's ideals which will manifest in the Christ-Jesus as their ideal that they may practice it in their daily life. For, be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers. Ye did well in thy refusal of him, who in physical body appealed to thee, as thou didst to him, but let thy choice be by Father-God showing thou the way. "Let my mind and my body and my heart be not deceived by those things of the earth, but in spirit, in truth, may I indeed seek to be Thy handmaid, a channel of blessings for my fellow man." He fails not to answer those. And already ye have known and may know well him who may be the father of thy sons. Ye have met him, ye have thought well, ye have dismissed, but
1968-10 Page 4
he will return again.
14. (Q) What is meant in my life reading by the statement, "God brought such as thee into material experience to be the mother of God Himself?" (A) This indicated that through the channel of the entity as the mother, in the descendant came those who were in the lineage of Jesus of Nazareth.
15. (Q) What were my activities in the Temple of Sacrifice and in the Temple Beautiful that would aid me now in carrying out my purpose? (A) These have just been indicated. In the destruction of, how there were rid from the body, those appendages which would hinder from being the more perfect channel; in the Temple Beautiful, the preparation of mind and body and in meditation and in prayer. These are merely words which would be used to indicate what the entity would seek to attain.
16. (Q) What is meant in my life reading by the statement that I would have imposing dreams and how can I best interpret them to be helpful to me in the present? (A) These have come, these may come. Ye interpret them in thyself. Not by dream book, not by what others say, but dreams are presented in symbols, in signs. Oft they may be as opposite that which is presented to the body which has been in some of those indicated that bring warnings, blessings. Then keep thyself pure in mind and body. For the Lord's are oft spoken in dreams, in visions. For He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Be not unmindful that there is the manner of life ye live so that ye merit this or that experience.
