Show THE REBIRTH OF A SOUL continued from last week we must now retrace our steps in order to make proper beginning of the real story and give more detailed analysis ot of a condition which existed in the life of this friend and which may well be considered as an underlying cause ol of many of tile the so called incurable ailments existing in the lives of the afflicted ones it will also be necessary to use the personal pronoun more frequently during the early chapters of this recount in order to make clear certain points on which I 1 was receiving guidance relative to the case and to emphasize the need for careful preparation for tsuch such work as I 1 was later instructed land and privileged to t do to will read these chapters and to those who are taking definite part in tb ehg e work we are engaged upon doing in this isolated and barren country it is a recognized fact that in order to make spiritual progress or to expect to receive of the blessings promised in tile the script scriptures ures it is NECESSARY TO SUBMIT wholeheartedly WHOLE HEARTEDLY TO THE FATHER OF WHOM ASK SUCH BLESSING to submit wholeheartedly whole heartedly means more than the average person ierson is willing to con 1 ceic and it includes not only a willingness to prepare in a spiritual sense but to discard every material THOUGHT OR DESIRE relating to gain are we not told that in order to g ga ain m life we must lose it as we offer ourselves as living we may interpret these lines as they appear in many places in our bibles to mean ANYTHING WE PLEASE but the average person in thinking of life puts pats a literal translation tion on the words and also includes the MATERIAL possessions AND PLEASURES OF HUMAN EXISTENCE AS WELL only to the spiritually minded person does life mean mere than these things and only in the degree of advancement ma made c toward a willingness to III il linquish the last bit of self in the afie desire to serve without question according to guidance which has

TO DO THAN TO SERVE THE materially MINDED ONES IN SUCH MANNER AS MANY WOULD BE ED it requires willpower will power to divore divor oneself from for whom one I 1 lias has great love and desire to live
