1. GC: You will give the relations of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces; giving the conditions which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth plane, giving time, place and the name, and that in each life which built or retarded the development for the entity; giving the abilities of the present entity, that to which it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions, as I ask them.

2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now called [5227].

3. Here we find an individual with talent, provided it is used in directions for creative energies.

4. As we find, there are two outlets. While in some of the associations there may be questions, we find that it will depend upon the manner in which the individual applies itself. We may, by the training, spoil an excellent actor and have a poor minister, or a poor worker at other work; or we may have an excellent minister who would be a dramatic evangelical minister - or an evangelist.

5. For, as we find, there are these talents of the dramatic art; of speaking, of dramatic activity. These are evidenced in the personality as well as the individuality of the entity.

6. Thus the training, the education, the activities that are given the body in its unfolding and developing life would be well to be along those lines, particularly.

7. Other activities will be nil, compared to whichever one of these fields of service the entity may choose to another.

8. As to the instructions, directions and warnings, these would be that the health be particularly guarded, especially as to the respiratory system.

9. Instructions should be given, then, in English, languages, things pertaining to the normal business rather than any great stressing on mathematical problems - just

sufficient for a normal activity. But Biblical history, English, American history; general as well as ancient history, should be stressed in the activity, in the education, in the teaching for and with the entity. These, as we find, need stressing.

10. As to the appearances of the entity in the earth, - these mean so very little in the immediate; yet later may mean much.

11. Before this the entity was in the land of the present nativity, in the name then Johnie Foxye. The entity made overtures for that activity in the theatre, the stage, in dramatic activities, and was closely associated with Booth who brought some of the most unusual dramatic activities to this particular land.

12. Before that the entity was in the period when the Master was in the earth, being among the children who were with the crowds at the feeding of the five thousand.

13. The entity was among those who witnessed those happenings. Thus there is seen the ability for the entity to easily pray, to see, to feel, to experience the presence of duty, of patience; those virtues which most every individual needs to be thoroughly acquainted with and able to apply in the experience of self.

14. There we find the entity was among those who were teachers and ministers when there was the spreading of the gospel following the activities on the day of Pentecost, though the entity was of those groups who came from both the teachings of the Samaritan as well as the orthodox Jewish relations.

15. The entity gained, in the name Jason; and it was in Jason's house that some of the activities took place which brought about questions; yet the abilities of the entity in its speaking, in its acting, brought great strength to others. And it may in this experience bring those understandings which will draw peoples to the knowledge of the relationships of man to the Creative Forces, or God.

16. Before that the entity was in the Egyptian land, among those who were taught in the temple Beautiful for the administrations to other groups. There the entity was active in presenting the tenets, the truths, and especially those as related to home building.

17. The entity was among those who held to the tenets which had been proclaimed or pronounced by the Priest; of a universal rather than of an individual nature, yet taught individuality for the presentation of the tenets or truths in other lands.

18. As to the abilities of the entity in the present, that

to which it may attain, and how:

19. The stage or the ministry, as indicated, should be the line of activity to follow; as a dramatic artist or as an evangelist - rather than any set ministry in any one particular field.

20. Do these, and give the opportunities for the expression in either of these fields of service.

21. Ready for questions.

22. (Q) What school would be suggested? (A) That which, as indicated, teaches those things such as history and English, or wherever these may be stressed.

23. We are through with this reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " " Uncle, [1641] " for Indexing
