TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find there are conditions as cause distress with the physical forces of this body, that - corrected - may bring and develop with the body those conditions in the physical that will bring about the near normal conditions. These, as we find, will have to do with the creating of proper coordination in the physical functioning, so that the developments of the body and the body functioning - as related to the various organs, glands, and the activity of sympathetic and cerebro-spinal system - will bring the proper relationships one to another in the physical functioning.
2. These, then, be the conditions as we find them with this body, [161] we are speaking of.
3. The coordination between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal nerve energies, and the activities of the lymph circulation with that of the capillaries, brings those abnormal reactions as are seen in the functioning of the body toward the normalcy. These conditions, as we find, are produced from those incoordination of centers as are related to the circulatory system, as affecting that assimilated and that distribution of that as BRINGS the resuscitating forces to the body. Being, then, affected through the glands in the system as related to that division, for with the pressure in the pituitary body - as well as that through the lyden, GOVERNING this relationship of the sympathetic system with the coordinating of the cerebro-spinal, the INACTIVITIES of the body as TO the coordinating centers become distorted in THEIR activity.
4. In the functioning of the ORGANS as related TO these, their development physical are as of a normal impulse THROUGH the variations as are accorded same through the existent conditions. Hence that as is seen of the NECESSITY to bring the activities of that assimilated in its physical functioning to its proper relationships to that as assimilated FOR, see? That sounds confusing here, to some. In this: That in the system there is seen that, as each portion of that assimilated must act in the functioning as it is needed in the system, see? As is seen from the manner in which DIGESTION takes place with the body. That at times which will be easily assimilated, at another disagrees entirely and will NOT act with the system at all. This produced by the inability of the coordination of those centers that bring about that plasm within the digestive system as needs be, for the digestive fluids to act in the right capacity, see? Same as is seen again in that of normalcy as rest physical for the body, wherein that NORMALCY is - with fatigue of the body - to sleep, or rest in the conscious forces or those of the active forces' consciousness, or active consciousness to become - through the act of rest - RESUSCITATED by that builded up. The taking the rest makes for the body to become restless and inactive, through those conditions in the system.
5. Then, in meeting the needs - we will find it will be NECESSARY to ofttimes CHANGE those applications as be made to bring about a normalcy for the body.
6. FIRST we would begin with those of the vibrations of a low form of electrical forces as will be applied to same through that of the wet appliance, which will carry into the system those of the gold solution - as will give stability to the nerves' reaction; these being applied - the positive to the base of the brain, while that of the negative - that CARRYING solution - (This will necessarily be of the PLAIN character) - carrying the charge to the umbilicus, see?
7. At the same period there should be given into the system those of the properties that will aid in the ASSIMILATION of that taken; which will be adding these of Milk of Bismuth, to which small quantities of Essence of Pepsin is added - one drop to the teaspoonful, see? The dose would be the teaspoonful about twice each day. This to act with the ASSIMILATING system, and the creating of the energies as are necessary for the PROPER assimilation, as will the vibratory forces add to the stabilizing of the coordinating energies within the system; carrying the MANIPULATIONS WITH same, that there may be those of the proper distribution of energy; and the SANDS, and the salt, and the SUN - or the sun baths - will be the better for that of the capillary and lymphatic circulation, through the coordination of the pulsations as act through the aorta artery - as the rest of the system. Ready for questions.
8. (Q) What is the cause, and what is the remedy, of the loss of normal talking; his left side paralysis; and inability to walk?
   (A) This has just been described, in the condition of the incoordination within the system, and these of the whole condition as exists between the sympathetic and the cerebro-spinal, see? and the remedy, use these as given in the first, in the beginning of this, of the adding to that within, the stabilizing of the nerve energy itself, or that within the FLUID itself, of the STABILIZATION of impulse, see? as is being builded by the application of this TO the system. These coming through these portions of the system, STABILIZES the equalization - as comes through the lyden gland, as acts with the brain centers - which will produce the coordination between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal - the impulse as is seen through the sensory system, see?
9. (Q) What can be done to cure his asthma and rapid, painful, breathing?
   (A) We are doing all of that here, if we will apply these conditions! for the manipulation is to raise these portions where the pressures are produced, see? so that the DRAINAGES come off from the system in their proper relationships one to another. This removes the strain as is caused in this region - the manipulation - raising of the lungs to produce for same drainage IN the system.
10. (Q) Was he a normal child when born; and how long will it be before he is cured and brought to a normal condition?
    (A) This will depend entirely upon the RESPONSE of the body to the applications that will be made, but these are started on the correct basis - if they will begin with these as have been outlined here. NORMAL at birth, dependent upon what is called - or the BEGINNING of the normalcy, for this would have much to do with other conditions, see? The activities in that of the union of forces that bring about the development of forces. It is of the physical, NOT of those of prenatal - of influences from the father or the mother, see?
11. (Q) Should he be circumcised?
    (A) ALL boys should be.
12. (Q) Are his tonsils in bad condition and what should be done with them?
    (A) Let's don't do anything! We will get to those later on! Let's get the circulation and the vibratory forces of the system in their proper relationships one to another. While these need local attention, yet we would find that with the change of conditions in the system this will change all of those relationships of the organs, as well as of the glands through which each one functions.
13. (Q) Dr. Funkhouse of Atlanta, eleven years ago, made fluid injections into the fontanel of the baby's head. Were any brain cells destroyed so as to cause permanently any loss of function in voice, walking, or side paralysis?
    (A) The pressure as produced by the air, as well as of fluid itself, has its portions in the condition existent - but with the use of the properties as we have given here. We make OVER almost a brain action - for we can overcome these conditions, if we will DO as we have given.
14. (Q) Dr. Sharpe of N.Y., about eight years ago, operated on the right temple of the head and removed a watery sack, did this cause any permanent injury?
    (A) No.
15. (Q) What treatments can be given so that he can talk like normal children?
    (A) Begin as we have given, and we will get to that later on.
16. (Q) Would it be well to take the body to Cayce Hospital for treatment?
    (A) Only those treatments may be given there, as yet - see? for these are in their building there, and are only ADMINISTERED at this place at present.
17. (Q) How long at a time should the battery be applied?
    (A) In the beginning, or until there is the opportunity for the reaction, thirty minutes each day. This would preferably be given when the body is PREPARED for rest. See the variations now in these activities? As the body is PREPARED for rest, so that after TAKING same the body may rest near normal, see?
18. (Q) How often the manipulations?
    (A) In the beginning they should be every day.
19. (Q) Any special diet?
    (A) That that is building for blood, for nerve energy. Just as much as will be assimilated by the body, see? but keep it in a more of the ACTIVITY.
20. (Q) Can he be brought to be a normal child?
    (A) Almost entirely normal! Take time, but we can bring it almost to entirely normal.
21. (Q) Is there any trouble with the bone in the left foot?
    (A) Covering in the bone is - This is more from a blood condition than of the bone, as yet. These we will reach as we change the vibratory forces in the circulation to the extremities. Don't worry about that just yet.
22. (Q) What is the cause of the convulsive tremors that come over his body frequently?
    (A) Incoordination, as it was given in the beginning here.
23. We are through for the present.
