GC: You will have before you the entity [3189], born October 18, 1863, in New Point, Indiana, who seeks information, advice and guidance, in a Mental and Spiritual Reading, as to the course he should pursue for maximum mental spiritual development. You will give the entity that needed, answering the questions, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes, we have the entity [3189], as an entity, and those applications of self through the varied experiences in the earth’s plane.
-
We would give how and why the entity should conduct itself or its life in relationships to those influences of the divine nature, as well as its personal relationships to those with whom it may come in contact or meet from day to day. Thus, in a manner, the entity may become a living example of that it holds as its ideal in the earth.
-
Not that the entity should so magnify the own ego as to become high-minded, or double-minded. But, act in those ways and manners in which it shall ever be to the glory of the Father, and the manifestations in the material way before the fellow man such as not to cause questions of any kind to be directed against the activities of this entity.
-
These as we find, then are self-evidenced in the experience of this entity: One that may be said to be very “sensitive” to activities within and without the body.
-
Like all other entities, [he] has ever the spirit of the guardian angel before the face of the throne of the Father.
-
These, then, are the activities which ye interpret and read aright in the daily activities; that keep the physical, the mental, and the spiritual forces ever present and active in the relationships the entity bears to its fellow man.
-
For, as has been said or given of old, “As ye do unto the least of these, thy brethren, ye do it unto me.”
-
The greater problem or greater expression, then, is to be in the analysis of self, the analysis of the relationships that the entity may bear towards those with whom it comes in contact day by day; how the entity may in each of these experiences contribute something to the needs of those individuals who seek through these channels to have their own physical, mental and spiritual forces submitted to activities such as are manifested here. Such activities in which the spirit of truth is manifested, or - as so aptly given - “Putting off the old man, putting on the new,” so that each phase of each body-entity may indeed take thought and apply those tenets, those lessons that should be gained from the study of the admonitions given as to the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit.
-
These are one. Just so must thy purposes, thy ideals, ever be one.
-
If you would understand what lies ahead of thee, study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman not ashamed, rightly stressing those subjects, those things that should be stressed; keeping self unspotted from the world. This done, we will find the entity - in body, in mind - will become much closer to the Creative Forces where it has known many of those things called temptation where SUDDENLY it has appeared to thee in no uncertain terms - in an uncanny manner.
-
For, thy body is indeed the temple of the living God. And He has promised to meet thee. And He must, alone.
-
Let it be said even of thee, that there might be taken up twelve, yea twenty, basketsful of the leavings, if these adjustments are made in the mental, the physical and spiritual body of this entity.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Do I have any direct guidance from invisible helpers? (A) As indicated, ever the guardian angel stands before the throne of God - for each individual.
Let not thy good be evilspoken of nor thy bad be such as to cause continued questioning. Rather let the attitude be in that direction of hopefulness for the things to come.
- We are through with this Reading.
