1. GC: You will have before you the body and the enquiring mind of Mrs. [5534], present in this room, and her marital and domestic associations and relations. You will give the body any advice and council that will be of help along these lines, and answer the questions which we will ask you regarding same.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [5534], present in this room, and those relations and associations as surround the body, as respecting the marital relations and conditions.

3. In the consideration of conditions as have been builded in the mind, in the intent, in the purpose of the body-self, and such relations as have existed, do exist, much has been determined in self, much has been left as respecting activities or actions in respect others.

4. As conditions exist, there needs be many changes made as respecting the relations in self, in others, in the ideas and ideals as respecting such relations; for in self there is builded an ideal. Why question same, would the ideal be builded upon those same relations and vows with which same are taken?

5. Ready for questions.

6. (Q) Is my husband returning home? If so, when and how? (A) These conditions will depend upon the movement and the activity of many with whom the body has been associated, is to be associated with. As to these conditions, as to whether he does or does not, that should not alter the attitude, nor the actions, nor the activity of the body-self; for, would the body consider only self and self's relation, and self's activities, how great a CHANGE would same make as respecting the movements or the relations of the companion? Would the change, or the return, under altered conditions or circumstances, alter the ideals within self? To thine own self, then, be true - irrespective of the movements, the activities, or the IDEAS, of others. Then it must ensue, faults will not lie at thine OWN door.

Only thine own self may one be sincere with. Then the sincerity to another must follow, as the night does the day. False actions, false activities, do not bring truth; do not make for any good thing that may come FROM same. Only in truth, only in sincerity, may truth - or that upon which growth, or development for the purpose for which one enters into this life, or any phase of life - will this BRING a development for ANYONE. In these relations, then, keep thine heart in that attitude as one would be done by; do that to the other, IRRESPECTING of circumstance, conditions, surroundings, environs, or material or carnal results. Keep thine SELF true.

7. (Q) Is he returning alone? (A) What does it matter, if to thine own self thou art true? He will not be alone, however!

8. (Q) What will his attitude be when he returns? (A) In answer to that as is desired in self; for desire is of a threefold nature, and that builded in self finds its response in another, and as there is the SINCERE desire to build in the mental being of any in which such relationships have existed, as in this condition, that will be builded - for life, in all its phases, is of the threefold nature. SPIRIT is willing; MIND is the builder; the RESULT is that MANIFESTED in the material conditions as surround a body. That attitude, then, will be that as has been builded, as has been desired in self as related to another.

9. (Q) What should my attitude be when he returns? (A) That as has been given. In self be true, irrespective of the attitude or the actions of another. Judge as ye WOULD be judged. Do as you WOULD be done by, to, for, of. In THIS there is not only safety in self, but development in mind and soul.

10. (Q) Shall I procure a divorce? (A) If so desired.

11. (Q) Is my husband desirous of a divorce? (A) Not at present.

12. (Q) Will I have difficulty in procuring custody of children? (A) Depends upon the actions under which and by which, and for which same is claimed.

13. (Q) What has my husband done with all his money? (A) We haven't any money in this! We have peoples, and minds, and things - and relations.

14. (Q) Will I be financially taken care of by him? (A) If demanded.

15. (Q) To what extent? (A) To be taken care of!

16. (Q) Will any disaster or misfortune befall me before procuring divorce? (A) Not as is seen at present, though many changes may come, as the self is building in self many variable and varied conditions, contacts. This will depend most upon self than from others.

17. (Q) Should I remarry? (A) If so desire.

18. (Q) Should I marry Henry? (A) Don't see you marrying Henry!

19. (Q) Will my future be better mentally and financially after divorce? (A) Unless changes are builded in purpose of self; that builded must stand - "As the tree falls, so does it lie; as the branch is trained, so does the tree or vine stand". As the mental guides, so does the body become builded; for the Spirit moves in those ways in which it is directed. Cleanse the mind in such a manner as to be able to meet every word, every act, when it is met on the corner on the morrow.
