1. GC: You will have before you the incarnation of the entity Edgar Cayce, present in this room, as Uhjltd in the Persian country. You will tell us if we may obtain through this channel a scenario based on this experience which would meet the modern screen requirements, be acceptable to Paramount Pictures Corp., and present to the world part of the light and truth which it so needs. Please advise us as to what would be the best approach to obtain the best results. Ans. ques.

2. EC: Yes, we have the incarnation, Edgar Cayce in this room, as Uhjltd. As to making same in a modern scenario would, to be sure, depend upon the approach as would be made, to that phase or part of the experience that would be scenographed.

3. In approaching same, then, the import of the truth as might be gained by many, there are many phases that would be applicable to the present day needs. Much as might be sought by a people.

4. The largeness, or stupendousness, of such a production, to put same across (in common parlance), would have to be the consideration. This may be done, if there will be many that have much to do with the selecting of such scenarios, and the truths made much in their experience as necessities for the presenting of such a scenario, or picture.

5. As we find, this would be worth while undertaking, for even the presenting of such (properly outlined) would make for an opening that would at least at some time be acceptable to such groups. Ready for ques.

6. (Q) Would it be best to seek an outline of the scenario through this channel and have someone write the finished product, or seek the more complete form direct through this source? (A) First seek the outline, and that which may not be completed through the exercising of the imagination of those as would fill in same may be done through the channels - until the complete story is presented. That is, first have the outline so the idea is presented. Then fill in and present to the same channel, as to whether that is the idea or ideal as is to be presented to a public. Do this some several times, and then have this presented through the regular channels.

7. (Q) Give a suggestion to be presented to this body as it passes into the subconscious condition that will obtain the clearest and most direct outline on this subject. (A) Present as this: You will give such an outline of the entity known as Uhjltd, as may be presented in scenario form for the PRODUCING of same under modern facilities, that will carry the IDEAL OF the entity in its attempt to be a PRESENTER of truth to the world.

8. (Q) Do you find that the expense of producing such a picture would prevent Paramount Pictures Corp. from accepting this scenario at this time? (A) We haven’t the scenario yet! This presented in a manner that carries its worth-whileness will not be too big an undertaking, for it IS as a TRUTH! Much of the way has been prepared! USE IT!

9. (Q) Any other information or advice regarding this at this time? (A) Do not be over anxious, but be very earnest and zealous, and make haste slowly, covering every phase; for each idea ideal should be checked and re-checked as to the purposes as asked for.

10. We are through for the present.

[GD’s note: The above idea was born due to A.R.E. member-friend being Treasurer of Paramount Pictures Corp. - Mr. Harry M. Goetz.]
