Elvis reported to Paramount for publicity stills and, as promised, was met there by Larry Geller who had copies of several of the

books that they had discussed. One, "The Impersonal Life published in 1917, promulgates the view that each person's divinity lies

within himself, that God is in fact "the divine I."
