TEXT

1. EC: We have the body here, [238]. In the general physical forces of the body we find disturbances that are abnormal to the body. While there are conditions that have become such as to be the general CONDITIONS in system, yet we find there may be added that which would give to the body a different reaction, and build for the physical forces the better and nearer normal reactions, that would allow the physical and mental reactions to be nearer that as would be desirable and desired by the body.
2. The conditions as disturb the physical body have much to do with those manners in which the glands are affected, by disorders as HAVE existed in eliminations in the system; so that there has been at various periods VARIOUS conditions as have arisen from these disorders. These having to do with accumulations of the nature that has been unable to be entirely eliminated from the system, causing distresses at times, giving to the whole of the nervous system - and especially in the mesenteric nervous system - those reactions that bring distress in the manner of nerve exhaustion to organs, and to the functioning of organs.
3. In the vegetative nerve system - these have shown the most effective reaction, for they have had to do with the adrenal glands, as well as those of the lyden (Leydig) glands, that have prevented the normal reaction from the mental to the physical forces; for, while the body mentally able to keep that equilibrium as is necessary, yet not always do we find the physical responding in the same manner, or in the same line as the physical has been held. Then, the fault lies not in the mental vision, nor in the mental reactions, but in the ability of the PHYSICAL to function through the repressions as have been brought by the varied conditions in the system, from the mesenteric, the vegetative, and necessarily through the sympathetic systems in the body; for the reactions to the body have been from those of the glandular forces, as to produce for the body not a normal reaction in same.
4. Then, to bring about for the body the better and the nearer normal reactions, we would add those vibratory forces, as would be changed in the various reactions as set in system, as would come through the addition of those in the low form of the electrical vibration, as would be added to the system from those of a change between that through the Radio-Active Appliance - as would come in with the use of Spirits of Camphor carried in same - ALTERED with the direct reaction of those of the larger amount of the iodine carried in THROUGH that of the electrical vibration in those of the wet battery, as has been given for same.
5. Adding to the system those of the proper manipulations, outside exercise, as to keep an equalization - and we will find the body, physically and mentally, will respond, and show that near normal functioning of a physical body, for this body, [238]. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Is the body properly placed as to life conditions and surroundings, or should she take up some other line of thought and action?
   (A) First we would prepare the physical body for the best mental and physical reaction, for in the experiences through the earth plane we find that the physical body is that channel through which the mental and physical and spiritual of an entity MUST manifest. The nearer normal that reaction is, the more perfect may be the mental, physical and SPIRITUAL vibration of THAT body - for they are indeed one, but when hindrances arise, even as has been given here for this body, to attempt and to find the physical does not wholly respond to the mental condition, it produces that as is reactory with the efforts by self, and the reaction in others are in improper accord with the attempts OF the body, mental and physical.
7. (Q) Should there be a change of location?
   (A) For the better physical reactions, there should be a change in location. Then there may be made a change as to that as would be brought about by the changes, for the physical AND mental body.
8. (Q) Where?
   (A) Where these reactions as are given for the body, as to bring about the normal forces, may be carried forth.
9. (Q) Should the body take up a business career, or a lecture career from the platform of Truth centers, or develop business projects, or go into the literary field or some other line not here expressed?
   (A) First we would have the physical fit. THEN we would take up that of Truth and of the LITERARY field, both as from the lecture standpoint and from the writing.
10. (Q) Is the body pleasing her forces within, or do they feel that she is not expressing them as they wish to be expressed?
    (A) Just as has been given here, the physical is not expressing all that the mental and spiritual desires, or else there would NOT have been change given as to what the PHYSICAL REACTIONS in the body should be! DO that! Keep in accord with that as is known within this mental being, that the accord of the mental, the physical, the spiritual, must be one. The PHYSICAL being the vehicle, or the channel THROUGH which the mental and spiritual manifest. So manifest in the physical that the mental and spiritual may have the better channel to operate or manifest through. We are through for the present.
