The analysis delves into symbolic meanings, emphasizing the importance of inner transformation and understanding divine wisdom.

Matthew 13:1–3

The same day went Jesus out of the house and sat by the seaside. And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying,” Behold, a sower went forth to sow;”

S Here Jesus was showing that to meet yourself, ye must go forth into that which is the sea of thought, and let that be your boat, the Christ, or the thought of same, that ye may not drown within thine own thoughts and thine own actions. But be not tempted by that which are the multitudes or the outside forces that would come into self or those peoples. The sower is that which plants even that which Jesus gave in this chapter, but also is self who sows thoughts.

Matthew 13:4

And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the wayside, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

S Even that which is the bird of the fowl is considered foul here. Even in regard(s) to Jesus‘ explanation in this, then, the scriptures, there is also that, you see, that those deeds, those thoughts become foul and destroy themselves. For illusion destroys illusion in the end.

Matthew 13:5

Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith. they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

S Once again Jesus gives this as the word, but the word within self, too, falls upon stony places – the calcified pituitary, the hard heart, or that which is the subconscious mind will not receive them and that, then, is destroyed.

Matthew 13:6

And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

S The sun here is the Christ Force, and if the thoughts have no permanence and are not that which is good, then (they) in the end, as ye become christed and become the son (s–o-n) through the light, then that which is the illusion is destroyed.

Matthew 13:7

And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

S The thorns here are the thoughts, the word[s], especially, that are thorny, that give pain, inflict wounds and choke off that which is the good, the merciful, love, causing that which is karma to be created.

Matthew 13:8-9

But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

S Then this means open up thy heart; let thy deeds be that which sow in others, love and mercy, kindness.

We find that this group at this time is in much discomfort. That which is the channel is in discomfort, to a degree, by the outward forces that are natural and therefore we would give this: that in the overcoming of that which are the natural forces, you will find the peace that ye strive for. Therefore, we would give as a dedication until the next reading that which is overcoming the pain, the hardships, the discomfort of the material – or the meat man, the mind man- replacing it by that which is the pacifistic, that which is the peace, that which is the comfort of the Christ. And we give then, our blessing of love, peace, and bestow upon you that which is the love, the mercy of the Father Almighty, and that of the Son. Mercy, love, peace. The Holy Spirit dwells among thee, the Holy Comforter is present. Know this: God is aware of thee.

Merciful Father, gracious Father,

we ask, oh Father, in Thy mercy that Thy love

pour through us. For we are unworthy, oh

Lord, except by Thy choosing and by Thy

hand. Use us then, oh Lord, that we may be as

a light and love to our brothers, our sisters,

as you would have us be so have us be, Lord.

Awaken, ye children! For the Lord is mercy, the Lord is love. Then be as that which are the tools of His hand, tools of His thought. Be as kindness, love, mercy; be humble, contrite. Be happy. Be happy in the Lord. Awaken, then, oh children of the one Lord God.

Matthew 13:10–11

And the disciples came, and said unto him, “Why speakest thou unto them in Parables”? He answered and said unto them, “Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.”

S You have that which is as those who have been chosen or those who have become aware that they may understand, through the guidance of the Christ within, the God without, that for those who have not yet accomplished there must be, then, the longing, the search, lest they be lost in themselves. And yet, those who are not ready, those who have not come in to learn, cannot take a shortcut, but must search and seek as the readiness comes to them.

Matthew 13:12

For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

S This is as the opposites given here. For those who have been given are those who have earned the right to get, to seek, who have come in to seek, to find. But for those who have turned away, those who are as bound to this earth and this plane, they, then, will lose the opportunity. It is as a choosing, not as that which has been chosen for, but by the entities themselves. For even as ye come in, you come in to learn a lesson. For some it is the turning away. For some it is the opportunity to choose in the life whither they will go. And for others, they have chosen but to do one thing, and one thing only: that is to find the Lord thy God, in thine own way, in thine own path.

Matthew 13:13

Therefore, speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

S This again is that which is understood as: for to climb another way is as sin, or missing the mark, or that which is the thief. For ye will ascend only through that which is the Christ Force, the I AM discovered in self.

Q ”For ye cannot ascend” – Is ‘can’ meant here or is there some other meaning?

S Well, you can use the word, will, or even – will would be the best. [10-46, 5–13-78]

Matthew 13:14

And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

S Isaiah is that which is representational here of the cleansing force within the body. And only through the cleansing force can ye understand, can ye hear, can ye see that which is the Truth, the Light, and the Way. Therefore, as given, only through the cleansing can you find the way. Ye are lost, ye cannot see, ye cannot hear the truth if ve do not cleanse. And what is cleansing? Prayer and meditation.

Matthew 13:15

For this people‘s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and

their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

S The opportunity here is not for those who had hardened their heart, who would not listen, who would not be. But ever ready is the Christ to do those things as promised. For the promise is good. The promise is clear. The promise is true. For through the Christ, and only through the Christ, can ye attain that which is as everlasting life.

Matthew 13:16–17

But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, “That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear and have not heard them.

S Those that He spoke to at that time were those who were chosen, not necessarily those who had earned, but those who had chosen. For that which is as the mercy of God is not understood by man. Yet there is a law, there is a way, there is a path for all, even if they are not chosen, that they may earn the right, find the way, that God then may choose them through their own seeking, their own finding of that which is the truth within the life pattern, the life stream. Allow that, then, within selves to be both the seeking and the choosing.

Matthew 13:18-19

Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. When anyone heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the wayside.

S Those who have the opportunity of choosing, that have come in, knowing they may choose, and allow that which is the world thought, or selfishness, to impede, to block, to make that which is a stumbling block or the turning away, then have that which is the karmic rebuttal to face.

Matthew 13:20-21

But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

S These are those who cannot cast aside themselves, but count God‘s grace, mercy, love, only as to the benefits of the material or the physical or the mental man, rather than that which is as the spiritual being, and apply God‘s love only to themselves as they measure same, and so doing must then cast aside the reality, the power, the grace.

Matthew 13:22–23

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it, which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

S The opportunity, even in that which are the times that are hurtful, the times of pressure, the times of tribulation, that can receive God and give forth love, forgiveness, understanding and patience to others, then is that which shows forth that which are the fruits of the spirit. Those who cannot, and cast aside in that time of tribulation, then have lost, and must again face the issue at another time, another place. For those who give forth manifest that which is of God, that which is God, in proportion to their understanding- a hundredfold, sixtyfold, what have you but always that which is as their understanding and their receivership manifested in the actions, the thoughts, those things that have to do with others. For this is the measure not what happens within the individual – but what the individual does to, with, and for others.

Q Is there any significance in the hundredfold, sixty, and thirty?

S This is that which is representational of a hundredfold as total. Sixtyfold as the majority of the actions – always good. For who among man that has not risen beyond the station of manhood, humanhood, can do more than all of self, the hundredfold. This, then, is the full manifestation of Christ within the life. And yet, if ye have the falling away soever, and yet the majority of the life and the thoughts are given to that which is the way, the truth, and the light, then ye are doing that which is God‘s being in action. Ye are doing that which is the Christ in action. Ye are doing that which is the spiritual nature, the truth of thy being, in action. This, then, is more than halfway.

Matthew 13:24-26

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also”.

S This is: thought is ever the thing, or things. Ye will think, ye will manifest that which is as the Christ way. The tares are those thoughts – misguided, selfish, those that are less than spiritual in nature – that creep in and must grow among that which is the truth and the light.

Q How can you determine when you are selfish?

S Even as ye are by stage, so must ye measure that which is as selfishness. For ye are as children, and must learn as progressively ye move, even as a child, through that which is the educational system by grades, by levels. When ye are aware of this or that being as a selfish motivated thing, ye have graduated to a new level, and must then learn through self and self-analysis. How have you been told to be? True to self. Understand self, and as ye understand self and become true to self, then ye begin to be that which is able to measure the thoughts, the actions, the deeds, that which are the fruits of same.

Matthew 13:27-29

So, the servants of the householder came and said unto him, ‘Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?’ He said unto them, ‘An enemy hath done this’. The servants said unto him, ‘Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up’? But he said, ‘Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them’”.

S The enemy, here, is that which is self. Self, sowing the thoughts that are wayward, that are not of the light. There can be no taking or parting of the thought patterns. Only as ye overcome and as ye manifest within the life the cleansing process, even as given before, can ye then bind up the tares and rid yourself by cleansing.

Matthew 13:30

“Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers, ‘Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn’”.

S Here, then, is the measure each day in meditation and prayer, as He calls forth “come unto me that ye may be fed.” And in doing so, in reviewing that which is self, the pros, the cons, that which is the negative and that which is the positive, and the results of same within the life, as ye face yourself, then you do bind that which is the wheat and that which is the tares. And then take that which is good to thy Father’s house and retain it within thine own temple, that ye may be measured by yourself to be that which is positive, and cast aside that which is, then, the negative – the tares, the thoughts, the actions that were not as tools of God: love, goodness, righteousness.

Q How consistent, how strong do thoughts have to be? If a person had an evil thought and immediately throws it out, is this in the same category as tares?

S When thoughts are asked for, when thoughts are sought after, they being that which you would classify as evil or the negative, then ye have done yourself an injustice. And it must stay there till it is cleansed even as given, bound up and cast aside, burned, destroyed, cleansed. If it is a passing thought, a reaction, a reflex, then cleanse it at the time. For it is not of permanence. For instant action is not as that which is premeditated or sought after. And yet, if it repeats itself, know that it is as an object to self to be about that which is the overcoming of those thoughts by building up that which is a wall of love, truth, and light, between the negative – the illusion of same, and the positive, which is the truth.

Matthew 13:31-32

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

S This, then, is the direction of that which is the Christ Force within self. Even as the tiny semblance, or the thought of bringing same into the life, may manifest itself by growing through that which is the physical body, through that which is as the endocrine system, pushed forward by that which is prayer and meditation, that it may fill the body and bring in the thoughts of purity, love, and goodness – that which is the spiritual in nature as manifested within the life, and as symbolic here by that, or symbolized here by that which are

the birds resting in the branches. And then in the branches is that which is the fruit. 

Q Is mustard tree a correct name?

S Not especially. It was taken by those who translated, for they were aware of the power and strength of the mustard seed. Not so much, even, as that which would be from the tiniest to the greatest, but rather as the awesome power of same to push aside that which is the earth, the rocks, even as they understood concrete of that time, and become that which is even as a great plant.

Matthew 13:33

Another parable spake he unto them; “the Kingdom of heaven is like unto  leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

S Here ye have that which is as the spiritual awakening or that which is as the feeding of the mind, the physical body, and the spiritual nature of self, to become one and raised up, even unto that which is the understanding of the being within the earth plane, the lessons to be learned, and the path to be taken.

Matthew 13:34-36

All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world”. Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, “Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.”

S Here is that which is turning away from the world thought, turning into self, and even the thoughts, the actions of self coming to know, coming to ask, coming to seek that which is the awakening within self, or that which is the finding of the Christ within, even as He has turned within His own house to feed that which were the disciples, or even His own thoughts, His own being.

Matthew 13:37-40

He answered and said unto them, “He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

S Symbolically, here, you have that which is the end of thine own being, thine own world, or that which can be understood either to be one life or many lives and the end of same. Whereas, that which is holy within self, that which is honest and true within self, measures and cleanses the actions and the being of self, that ye may be either returned again to find an understanding, to follow a path, or be raised up beyond this earth plane to follow a higher path, a higher learning, a higher understanding and to progress towards that which is the understanding of the other levels or higher levels, as ye ascend towards that which is the Godhead.

Q Why did Jesus refer to the term devil?

S The devil, or the bugaboo, or that which is the curse of mankind, the intelligence, the selfishness, the curiosity (it’s all one), was understood by people of the time (the ancients, or especially those who translated the thoughts, the actions which were given to them) as devil. For this was an understandable thing to the people of that time. It relates to that which is the fallen angel, or that which is the fall of selves into the earth plane, to be trapped here by that which are the negative impulses. Therefore, anything negative- be they thought or deed– is as devil, or devilish, or that which leads astray. It is not a personality. It is not especially a thing, but it is actions.
