(Q) What is the condition of my body?
(A) This the body should answer better than anyone. When
there is the continued driving of the energies of the body,
without the due consideration that there must be time for
recuperative forces through those manners and channels
indicated as better for the body, then who else may answer as
to what is the condition of the body, and the manner in which
ye oft abuse it?
To be sure, at times it is felt that circumstance,
conditions, words of others, impel the body to go when there
is not sufficient resistance. But there will be people
working here when the body comes back again! What sort of a
body will you take away? What sort of body will you bring
back? It depends upon the purposes, the aims, the desires.
Take time to recuperate.
There has been given that which is helpful, and the body
responds - when it takes the time to do so. Read over again
that as given, and follow closely; and there will be help.
(Q) What more can I do to have better eliminations?
(A) An occasional oil enema will be helpful. Put in the
enema at least a tablespoonful of oil, even though it is
given in a Fountain Syringe; this will be on top and will be
forced the farther through the alimentary canal. This will
be beneficial. And when there is taken the colonic
irrigation, stir alkaline Petrolagar in the first waters used
- in the proportions of a tablespoonful to the quart.
(Q) Has the inflammation in my intestines cleared?
(A) Not entirely, else there would be better conditions and
better peristaltic movement. But it is some better. When
there is overtaxing by wrong eating, or working under too
great a strain, these respond very quickly.
(Q) What is cause and relief for the tiredness in my
shoulders and arms?
(A) Just needs rest and stimulation for the recuperative
forces. Take the time. As has been so oft indicated to man,
throughout his search for God, take time to be holy. This
may imply and does apply to the general physical health as
well as to the general physical, mental and spiritual being.
For, holiness is oneness of the mental, spiritual AND the
material body.
(Q) Are the vitamins I am taking sufficient to build up the
resistance and blood supply?
(A) They are sufficient if the time will be taken to allow
them to recuperate! But to overtax same after you have taken
them only runs down the system and will require that more and
more of each be added.
(Q) How can I remove the knot on my right second finger?
(A) Massage with Castor Oil AND Soda - mixed.
(Q) What is cause and relief for the nervousness, especially
after eating or smoking?
(A) Tiredness, lack of resistance in the body. Take time to
be quiet before eating. Take time to be quiet before
smoking, or when smoking. Don't smoke and talk or carry on
at such a rate that the mind is running away with the body.
This does not allow ANY stimulant to come from the relaxation
that should come in smoking.
(Q) Have the growths that were in my lymph circulation been
eliminated?
(A) Not entirely, else there would be better lymph flow
through the body. These are improved, but we would keep
very close to those suggestions as given - all of them - in
the last information.
We are through with this Reading.
