old, in years as termed today, and saw great changes come about.

       Reading 823-1

      For some six thousand years—if counted as time now—the entity journeyed with those people for the Yucatan land, or the establishing of the temple there in which the entity aided. But with those inroads from the children of Om and the peoples from the Lemurian land, or Mu, the entity withdrew into itself; taking—as it were—its own flight into the lands of Jupiter.” This priestess lived six thousand years and died on her own terms, withdrawing from this world to sojourn in the non-physical dimensions of Jupiter.

       Editor’s note: Much more on this in the chapter on life beyond death.

       Reading 1158-9

      There is no life without death, there is no renewal without the dying of the old. Dying is not blotting out, it is transition. For it has ever been and is, even in materiality, a reciprocal world. “If ye will be my people, I will be thy God.” If ye would know good, do good. If ye would have life, give life. If ye would know Jesus, the Christ, then be like Him; who died for a cause, without shame, without fault yet dying; and through that able to make what this season represents—resurrection!

      Resurrection means what? It is reciprocal of that which has been expressed. How hath it been put again by him whom ye knew but disliked (for ye loved Peter the better)? “There is no life without death, there is no renewal without the dying of the old.” Dying is not blotting out, it is transition—and ye may know transition by that as comes into the experience by those very activities, that “With what measure ye mete it shall be measured to thee again.” That was His life, that is thy life, that is each one’s life. Then how near, how dear has grown in the hearts, in the minds of all, those who put away self that they may know Him the better?

      He put away self, letting it be nailed to the Cross; that the new, the renewing, the fulfilling, the being the Law, becomes the Law!

      For it is the Law to be the Law, and the Law is Love!

       Reading 5155-1

      There is no death. Death is only overcome by Him, who has overcome death. It is our promise, and when ye abide in Him sufficient to that, ye with Him, as the resurrection, may indeed overcome death in a material sense.

       Reading 136-18

      Death is as but the beginning of another form of phenomenized force in the earth’s plane, and may not be understood by the third dimension mind from third dimension analysis, but must be seen from that fourth-dimension force as may be experienced by an entity gaining the access to same, by development in the physical plane through the mental processes of an entity. The mind is being correlated with subconscious and spiritual forces that magnify same to the conscious force of an entity in such a manner as said entity gains the insight and concept of such phenomenized conditions, see?

      We see in the physical world the condition in every form of life. As is taken here: We find in a grain of corn or wheat that germ that, set in motion through its natural process with Mother Earth and the elements about same, brings forth corn after its kind, see? the kind and the germ being of a spiritual nature, the husk or corn, and the nature or physical condition, being physical forces, see? Then, as the corn dies, the process is as the growth is seen in that as expressed to the entity, and the entity expressing same, see—that death, as commonly viewed, is not that of the passing away, or becoming a non-entity, but the phenomenized condition in a physical world that may be understood with such an illustration, viewed from the fourth-dimension viewpoint or standpoint, see?

       Reading 140-10

      The spiritual forces, in the spiritual consciousness, are cognizant of the condition in a physical plane until the spiritual has left that plane.

       Reading 900-426

      Life, in its continuity, is that experience of the soul or entity—including its soul, its spirit, its superconscious, its subconscious, its physical consciousness, or its material consciousness, in that as its development goes through the various experiences takes on more and more that ability of knowing itself to be itself, yet a portion of the great whole, or the one Creative Energy that is in and through all.

       Reading 938-1

      Life and its expressions are one. Each soul or entity will and does return, or cycle, as does nature in its manifestations about man; thus leaving, making or presenting—as it were—those infallible, indelible truths that it—Life—is continuous. And though there may be a few short years in this or that experience, they are one; the soul, the inner self being purified, being lifted up, that it may be one with that first cause, that first purpose for its coming into existence.

      And though there may be those experiences here and there, each has its relationships with that which has gone before, that is to come. And there has been given to each soul that privilege, that choice, of being one with the Creative Forces. And the patterns that have been set as marks along man’s progress are plain. None mount higher than that which has been left in Him who made that intercession for man, that man through Him might have the advocate with the Father. And those truths, those tenets—yea, those promises—that have been set in Him, are true; and may be the experience of each and every soul, as each entity seeks, strives, tries, desires to become and pursues the way of becoming one with Him.

      For the words that He has given are simple, “Inasmuch as ye do it unto the least, ye do it unto me.”

      Then, as there has been and is the passage of a soul through time and space, through this and that experience, it has been and is for the purpose of giving more and more opportunities to express that which justifies man in his relationships one with another; in mercy, love, patience, long-suffering, brotherly love.

      For these be the fruits of the spirit, and they that would be one with Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.

       Reading 1353-1

      As Life is continuous, then the soul finds itself both in eternity and in spirit; in mind, yet in materiality.

      If these become confused by the desires of self-aggrandizement or self-indulgence, or the glory of self for fame, for fortune or any of those that are considered as ideal conditions in a material plane, then the entity becomes confused.

      But as has been indicated, if there is the continuous use of spiritual force, spiritual value in relationships to the mental and material, there is harmony, peace, understanding and wisdom in the knowledge of the divinity within.

      As to those influences then that arise in the emotional self from the material sojourns, or those appearances in the material plane, not all of these are given, but those that are influencing—or that have their bearing upon the activities of the entity in the immediate or in the present sojourn, and how they may be used as constructive forces.

      For unless a knowledge of a condition or experience is to be used as a practical application in the present, it becomes null and void as to constructive forces.

       Reading 1474-1

      Life is continuous! There is no halting.

       Reading 1554-2

      Life is continuous, and is Infinite!

      Then, the retardment or advancement of each soul—as this entity—depends upon how well it comprehends or applies its understanding.

      But it is a cycle, and continuously is an entity meeting itself.

       Reading 1567-2

      First we begin with the fact that God is; and that the heavens and the earth, and all nature, declare this. Just as there is the longing within every heart for
