know that in the beginning of the[s?]e teachings, it was given to her to know they were to be, and her message is, that you carefully heed them and live in accordance with the spirit of love & unselfishness they embody. She is in perfect accord with your beautiful angel who holds her hand and allows her to see into her calm and lovely face, which reflects to her eyes, the improvement that has come into your life, since your thoughts have been turned heavenward.

Q, (Ned) Can you tell me about my grandmother?

A. I am able to put myself into the state of all in my heaven and I see that she is far above all thought of earthly things. She has lived so entirely in her present state, that it would not be well for her to be brought to this lower and outer door of communication which has been opened between us. xxx Yes, she

still gazes with love into the eyes of the lovely angel who reflects your state to her mother's eager asking. She cannot come into your material life and your spiritual life she sees growing as she most desires it should - xxx When we became builders, she says they were allowed to begin with you and others on your earth and you form the foundation of the great city that is growing under their hands.

Q. Can you not make us understand?

A. You could not understand. Do well your part in the work and wait for the clear vision. It cannot come to you in your prison house of flesh, but the time is not long occupy it, and it will seem all the shorter.

Q. Can you, Forbearance, tell us of yourself in life?

A. What I now am is more useful for you to know than the road by which I reached my place and here I am the only one who hears the burden of all the spirits who come in countless numbers to one heaven. All come to me and the burden is pleasant and I rejoice in my work. Your great teacher once filled my place and my reward is to go where he now is when the appointed hour arrives.

Q. Will you tell us about Insight?

A. When I came a little naked one into this blessed place, he received me, and for many long years, as you count time, he taught me and to him I owe what I am and you are favored ones indeed, that have been found worthy, in your state, to hear his words of wisdom. When a teacher was asked for you, he volunteered because he knew that the cord which binds souls and spirits together could be stretched to you.

Q. I did not know we should depend on

others for help when we go to heaven?

A. The moment that dependence is broken hell begins.

Q. Do you ever see Christ?

A. He comes to us in our hours of deepest spirituality, at other times he is our Light and we look at Him from afar as you do at you natural sun.

Q. Can we ever see him as you do, as a sun?

A. Yes, you can feel and you have felt both his light and heat - Every good thought or deed is from him and the nearer you live his life, the stronger that light and heat will glow in your heart.

Q. Do you think of, and pray to God, as a personality?

A. We have no means of knowing of God in our present state except as Christ has revealed him and we pray as he has taught, both us and you, to the father, in his name.

Q. Are we keeping you from other duties?

A. There are no more important duties than to give to those who ask - God Himself, we are taught, has no higher work.

Q. Do you have times of sleep?

A. Not like your natural sleep, but we rest in perfect assurance that God is behind the Darkness and when we wake it is light, because our thoughts turn to the source of light. Night does not come to all at once, as it does to you, Each spirit has what it desires, light and work, or repose and twilight. In some cities where all the dwellers are in perfect harmony, it is night to all at once, but in others, as with you, some repose while others make their own light and work.

Q. Will Insight tell us if we may come to him again?

A. Yes, if you need me, I shall be found by you, but now you must
