Time of Reading 10:05 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Dream Suggestion)

1. EC: We have the body, the enquiring mind, [140] - this we have had before.

2. Again we find there is presented - through the subconscious forces of self - lessons or visions of conditions as respecting others, and the manner in which others handle situations, that would be to self untenable in the present state of mind or attitude towards action of one individual toward another. And though self sees conditions as of one stabbing another in back, through the action, and that these conditions appear as experiences or realities rather than as dreams, yet - would the entity study those things, those truths as have been and are being given in this - there is seen that the thought, the intent, the purport as is builded in self is as one stabbing own self in the back; and that while the truths are unattractive to self, yet the manner in which the entity seen is handling the one who has committed a physical offense, through this condition, through this very act, there is being builded - as has been given - that condition in which the body, the entity seen, is BUILDING for the one that has brought offense, rather than CONDEMNING same and building destructive forces within the heart and soul of others.

3. Then look to thine own self, in the manner and way that self acts towards those who would bring to self the better things of life - rather than condemning in them those things that are as truths; for the life is to be lived, and the life IS action in the justice to self and mercy to those who would err.

4. We are through with this reading.

R1. GD’s note: Apparently above dream is telling Mrs [140] not to condemn her husband [137] and brother-in-law [900] for their interest in the spiritual truths but rather to follow the example of her sister-in-law, [136].

R4. 6/13/28 EC’s letter to [140]:

Dear [140]-

Sometime ago we received your check that you so kindly asked that half of it come to me personally. The rest was set aside for a special fund towards the furnishing of the hospital. I assure you I personally appreciate this contribution to the hospital, as well as the thoughtfulness of the needs of myself and those dependent upon me. I’m afraid you will think I’m rather late in telling you about it, but I assure you it is none the less sincere.

I haven’t been feeling well, and it has been a hard matter to get to my desk to attend to the correspondence. I’m mighty glad to say that I’m feeling a lot better at present. We have gotten some information concerning myself, and we find that following out the suggestions really brings results.

We are believing that we will soon be able to get started with the work of erecting the institution, through the kindness and generosity of those who do hold the information near and dear to them. We certainly trust that we will be able to administer through these channels to the needs and to the relief of many hundreds of sufferers. We sincerely believe that much may be gained through the proper administering of the suggestions given. We believe we have the proper man at the head of the medical end of it, and I trust I may be able to serve through these channels.

We certainly hope that while the hospital is being erected - and after it is completed - that you will find the opportunity and feel the inclination to see what’s going on here. We haven’t had the privilege of showing you this little restful spot, but we believe you will like it if you once see it.

Certainly hope and trust that you are feeling entirely well again, and that the little lady [143] is getting along fine. Please remember me to [137] - and again thanking you for your contribution to the work and your thoughtfulness of myself in person, and with kindest personal regards from all, I am

Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD

B1. 10/31/27 She obtained dream interpretation rdg. 140-18.

B2. 5/25/27, 6/6/27 See Mrs. [140]‘s sister-in-law’s dream interpretation rdgs. 136-64 and 136-65 in regard to maid [4786] stealing [136]‘s diamond pin, advising that [136] not discharge [4786] but continue in same helpful attitude toward her and in time pin would be ret’d.

B3. 12/14/27 Mrs. [140]‘s brother-in-law Mr. [900] [[136]‘s husband] wrote: “Recently [140] dreamed that [4313] told [136] that [4786], our maid, stole [136]‘s pin and told her definitely and in no uncertain manner. In the dream [136] went to [4786], our maid, and said, ‘Now, [4786], I know you stole my pin and here I find you are stealing other things from me.’ Then [in [140]‘s dream] [4786] threw a knife in [136]‘s back and [140] drew it out. Questions: What else is now being stolen by [4786]? Where may [136] find her pin that [4786] took? Where may [136] find these other things? As clearly indicated, [4786] is stabbing [136] in the back, as the saying goes. Then, as here indicated, [140]‘s method of handling such a situation is a good one to follow for [136]? Correct?”
