1. GC: You will have before you the subject of communication with entities in the spirit or fourth dimensional plane and the laws that govern such communication. You will answer in clear understandable terms the questions which will be asked.
2. EC: Yes, we have those conditions under which there is possible the communication to the fourth dimensional, or from one dimensional plane to another.
3. In considering all such communication, or information, first it should be considered by or from those tenets that have oft been given concerning those that have familiar spirits, or wizards, or witchcraft, and be judged by or in the light of that which has been given respecting such.
4. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Does the communication between those who have passed into the spirit plane and those on the earth depend on previously established relationships, on understanding and love, or upon what? (A) "As the tree falleth so will it lie." Because there are changes in the dimensional conditions does not alter that which is known in the earth plane as desire. If the desire is in that direction that there may be an association with, an aid to, a seeking of such associations, then only the means, the channel, the way, the course, is necessary to complete the communication.
The attunement of that materially known as the radio may offer an illustration for this. If there is the desire that the communication be with those from plane to plane, the attunement of an individual in the material or earth plane to the attunement of the entity in the spirit or fourth dimensional plane is necessary. Remember the first premise, "As the tree falleth so does it lie." If there is the desire on the part of those in the spirit or fourth

dimensional plane to be communicated with, and the same element of desire is attuned from another plane, stratum, sphere or condition, then such may be done; hence, it may truly be said that ALL factors have their influence, desire the ruling one; and the desire must be attuned to the same vibration of the one in another plane, as the radio; for who of those seeking would seek His Face must know, believe, that He is, attuning their abilities, their efforts, in that direction, acting, feeling, knowing, that there IS the response.
6. (Q) Does communication further or retard, or not affect, the spiritual progression of those in spirit life? (A) It does all! There are the same elements as in material; for, as IS known, that which has materialized into matter is of the elements that are dematerializing, or dematerialized, and where aid may be lent there must be the desire. Even as seen, known, understood by many, those desires have carried an entity on to heights that are detrimental to be called into association with purely materialization, or material, for all are given to that to which they have attuned or builded, that that is of both the material and spiritual essence of truth, fact, condition, whether positive, negative, or static.
7. (Q) Is there a difference in degree of power of clairvoyants and clairaudiants? (A) This depends upon the operator, actor, or power of the entity so acting or being acted upon; for, as given from the first premise, some are more persuasive by that which is seen, while others by that heard. So, the power that is manifest depends upon both the subject and that to which directed. To some one would be greater evidence, greater activity, greater in the scope of abilities, of premise, of action. To others the other would be just as convincing, powerful, far-reaching; hence there is given, not all are teachers, not all are ministers, not all are given to speaking in tongues, not all to healing; rather as to what the reaction to the opportunity has been of the entity in relationship to that set as ITS standard.
8. (Q) Why are communications so much more frequent in Europe than America, also clearer, fuller? (A) This should be a greater indication to the thinker of that so oft given, "Thoughts are things and may be miracles or crimes." Mind and thought are the builder, and upon that thought, that as made, may there be builded that through which there may be the greater source of the communications established. Then, this shows that variation in the spiritual-minded surroundings and the material-minded

surroundings. From the first premise given, it is not to be reckoned that there is not the spirituality in those even that are called material-minded, but rather reason from that which has been given. Those that signify, testify, glorify the Giver of life are in the proper course. Those that glorify self are in that class that must be put away.
9. We are through for the present.
