TEXT

  1. GC: You will have before you the body and the mind of [143] of ... St., 4th floor, New York City, also her parents and nurse, and those about her affecting her physical and mental development. You will please give her a physical and mental reading, and will answer the questions pertaining to same, as I ask them.
  2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, and those conditions surrounding the physical and mental development of the body. In the physical forces we find the body good throughout. In the action of all organs of the system (physical) good. In the nerve system, this we find that of the physical nature that appertains to a condition that, physically, might become detrimental to the body in its normal development, physically and mentally; that is, with such a strain on the nerve system, especially that of the sensory and sympathetic system, the enormous pressure of such forces as at present might bring the conditions for the subjective forces in body to such an exaggerated condition as to bring abnormal developments in certain lines. That is, the over nerve condition would affect in development, in its various stages, the nerve system, in its refractory and reacting effects on system.
  3. The condition as we find producing this is from that of a scare to the imaginative forces of the body, on the Street, with the imaginations (through suggestions purely, see?) brought to the high point. Then, in physical forces we have that of a psychological condition to be dealt with, and this should be done by the cooperative forces of both parents, in this way and manner:
  4. As the entity, body-mind, retires to sleep, through those suggestions as the body sleeps - just as the body is going to sleep. Not enough conversation to be that of the destructive in disturbing the sleep, but the gentle, soothing suggestion of the developing mind to coordinate properly and in such a manner as to bring the perfect coordination throughout the entire system, see? Through this manner, through this means, the parents should bring the conditions to that point of subjugation in the normal manner and the body through this become perfectly normal. Not necessary that this be carried on more than two to three minutes each evening, for three to five days. Then skip three to five days, beginning again in the same manner, see? Through such a way - not with one, see? (only one may speak, see?) but with the full cooperation of each. Combined in this manner, this would bring the normal conditions and prevent this fear, unduly aroused in the nerve system, to subjugation and to normalcy in this body, see? Do that.
  5. (Q) Since last Tuesday night, Oct. 27, [143] has apparently harbored some mental fear, and has not acted naturally.
    (A) That as given, the fear as has been created in the mind - the mind expanding, (not maliciously has this been done, see? but) through that fear that comes with the expansion of the mental abilities of entity. As an accident might happen, DOES HAPPEN to many physical bodies, this happens to the mental proclivities; NOT the mentality - MENTAL PROCLIVITIES of this entity, see?
  6. (Q) What caused the fear?
    (A) An over shadowing fear of getting hurt, see? Over shadowed by some body - NOT PHYSICAL BODY - loud speech that accompanied same, see? Not to the child - to someone else in the hearing of the child, see?
  7. (Q) What should her parents AND HER NURSE do to, and for her?
    (A) Parents should do as given. (Nurse keeping same care as has been and is accorded the child at all times, see?) Necessary, though, this be done in conjunction with each other - only one speaking. Father may speak once, Mother may speak once, see? Such words as these: (Quiet and easily should they be given) "All form and manner of fear is and will be removed entirely from this body. Quietly, peacefully, the body sleeps, knowing all is well with the whole forces that surround this body. Every condition, peace, quiet, joy and happiness," see? NOT LITERALLY - but such suggestions, see? Through such a means we will find, by time the second and third has been given, the change will appear, see? Then, through such may all control of body be carried on, should such be desired.
  8. That is all the questions.
  9. Do that, in the way and manner, and we will find we will bring the better physical, mental, conditions for this body.
  10. We are through for the present.
