TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [276]. Now, we find there are disturbances in the physical forces of the body. These have to do with the distribution of the energy as is assimilated in the system. This condition not merely a matter of diet, but of conditions physical that cause tendencies in the physical body.
2. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [276] we are speaking of, present in this room.
3. There are, in the cerebro-spinal centers, those of the tendencies of those ganglia that have to do with the conditions of the glands of the digestive system; especially of the lacteals. These cause for those incentives through pressures in the dorsal region, and reflexly from the upper LUMBAR region those that make for accumulations in the eliminating centers, and produce that character of disturbance as may be seen in the blood tests. These come from these pressures; not from any prenatal or pre-hereditary conditions, and are PHYSICAL in their reaction; even though the mental forces suffer under the strains that are produced, for when there is the tendency for the accumulations in the system - especially in a growing, developing body - that makes for more of those of the dextrin nature, or that as causes or calls for accumulations in the cartilaginous forces in the system - there are naturally irritations produced on all the centers in the system, and the nervous system - sympathetically - becomes irritated by same. These make for those irritations that produce in the system that reaction as of incorrigible conditions. These are PHYSICAL. While the mental may TAKE same, ACTING upon same, and BECOME a constitutional condition, being just as constitutional in the MENTAL forces OF the body - but, with the corrections of those conditions in the ganglia and in the system, we will find that the RESPONSES will be of quite a different nature. While the mental should have that same training in self, and from those about the body, as is training in the physical, that these relaxations are brought about in the system, rather than allowing the body to continue to create those distressing conditions in the lymph and in the circulation; lymph circulation and blood supply.
4. In meeting the needs, then, we will find that there will be not only corrections to be made, but vibratory forces as will be set up in system for the CORRECTION of the conditions in system, which will be from the plain wet battery appliance - which would be attached to the system in the extremity applications, so that - WITH the manipulations and corrections in cerebro-spinal - with the diet carried in the form of less of calciums, more of iodines, more of the sun's rays on the body, more of the exercises that will PREVENT these arising within the system. Do that. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Should body eat any red meat?
   (A) This should be in very moderate, if any at all. MODERATE, or that as may be termed - one a well balanced, but keeping away from the bones PRODUCING conditions, that are of a meat or of a VEGETABLE, for these TENDENCIES must be balanced in system.
6. (Q) Would hair growth be promoted by cutting?
   (A) Be promoted.
   In the applications for the manipulations, corrections should be made as manipulations are given; NOT all at ONCE, but AS the manipulations are given make those corrections as will be found necessary in the dorsal AND lumbar, and naturally - WITH correction in the dorsal and lumbar - there will be an alignment throughout the cervical region. In the applications of same, these should be done at least twice to three times each week.
   In the vibratory forces, AFTER the manipulations and adjustments are begun - the appliance of the low form of electrical vibratory [Wet Cell] forces would be given every other day; NOT more than twenty minutes in the beginning. Give at least five to six of the manipulations and corrective measures before the beginning with the vibratory forces; for, to change a vibratory force in the system - WITH the conditions EXISTENT as they exist in the present - would be to make COMBATIVE forces rather than coordinating forces within the body itself.
7. (Q) Is there anything the mother can do to help?
   (A) Well in the training of the mental forces, reading with, talking with, conversing with, on the general lines of the creative forces as from within self, and as its relationships to the outside and the outside to self. Along these lines, and these NOT as lessons - not as JUST precepts, but as ensamples from all. Play it as a game, not as a lesson - for Life is a game, and he who runs may gain from those conditions, or make of self - through the incompatibility that may be builded up - those that bring destructive forces within the life.
8. That is all the questions regarding this body.
9. We are through for the present.
