Text: [137]: Now you will have before you the body of [137], who is located in this room. Also the associations and environments of the body. If it is fit, the Forces - whom we know are perfect in all their givings - will answer the prayers of this body, in its desire of understanding and of becoming in understanding the oneness with the One, and his desire of doing his part rationally and normally in the development of the teachings being undertaken by him and his associates. May his prayers, if seen fit, be answered, and will questions please be answered. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [137]. This we have had before, and many come and seek to give counsel to the body at this time. In seeking knowledge, my son, and the oneness of the purpose of the sojourn in the earth's sphere during this experience, take much counsel in that thou taught in thine experience with thy brother, who gives thee oneness of the forces as may be made manifest in the material plane. And as the application of the various experiences of self in this plane come to the better understanding through application, the oneness of thine own experience will be made more and more clear to self in the ways in which the associates, the daily contacts, are drawn to self in that as is shed abroad through that self is able to accomplish through the contact OF the oneness of forces as are made manifest in this material plane. Not all in moneys, houses, stocks or bonds, but each in their place, their time, and in their way serve to fill the purpose of man's understanding of that one truth that was so often given by self in that OTHER period: that all forces in the material plane are manifestations of the unseen plane, or the evolutions of life are as the evolutions of the spiritual life. And even as the sound of many waters, or of mighty winds that bring into the various experiences of man of the unseen channels that have effect in the daily life, these are but manifestations of the One Spirit. And self, kept in that way that brings to thine understanding the varied conditions as are presented, only aids self in the greater development in each and every phase of understanding. And as the body physical, the bodily efforts in the mental man, become the pictures of those elements that make up the inner man, so will the various manifestations enable the self to expand in the various fields, as not only that of a man well rounded in the material side, but able, capable, and with an understanding heart and purpose teach, manifest, those very powers, by the laying on of hands or by the speaking of the word, even as thou hast accomplished in the present understanding. These, as thou knowest, have been given as ensamples of that as may be accomplished in keeping self in at-onement with the forces as are manifest in this plane, whether of the material, of the mental, of the spiritual; they are one, even as "I and thy Father are one." In Him and through His understanding comes the satisfaction of the CONTENTED life. Not satisfied ever, other than in well-doing - but in the states of development let each contend as they may, but ever let thy watchword be, "Others do as they may, but for me and mine house, WE will serve" - and in service find even that as was given, "Though He was led as the lamb, yet opened He not his mouth" - for He took upon himself the sins, or obligations, of many, that there might be the better understanding, the better knowledge of that oneness as is manifest in that thou walkest in that way. Ready for questions. (Q) Was this father Joseph speaking? (A) I, even I, Joseph, as I last - as thou knowest in thine self - leaned upon thine arm, as I commended to thee, Jude, that thou wouldst not lightly consider those deeds as were being done even in thine own house. Even in the shadow of thine own domicile hast thou seen and known, my son, the various understandings that come with the full knowledge of WEAKNESS in self alone, but mighty strength in Him that makes the path straight for those that would trust in the Oneness of all love - law - understanding. Yes, I - even I, Joseph, again commend unto you that as thou hast promised in self. Keep - keep - Oh keep aright, in the ways that bring the greater love. Cayce (137-120) M 30 (Stockbroker, Hebrew) 4/27/1929
