TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [618]; this we have had before.
2. As we find, there are considerable improvements from that as we have had here before.
3. However, there has not been as yet the full absorption of the leakages in the circulation.
4. Thus we have disturbances and catches and pulling at times across portions of the lower back, and through those areas just below the diaphragm.
5. These are the attempts of the system, as it were, to absorb the disturbing conditions.
6. As we find in the present:
7. We would keep the manipulations, those precautions as to the diets and the general activities.
8. And we would apply morning and evening an equal combination of the Turpentine, Mutton Suet and Spirits of Camphor; and especially over those areas from about the 1st or 2nd dorsal to the areas across the sacral we would - before the evening application of the compound - use the violet ray, with the bulb applicator, to disseminate the activities not only of that applied in the compound but to enable the manipulative forces through the spinal area to distribute through the circulation the activities necessary for the full eliminations.
9. These as we find are those conditions to be met in the present.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) What makes the spine sore?
    (A) As just indicated. The circulation, you see, has LEAKED; that is, the slowing and the pressure has made for the passing through the walls of the circulatory system of the activity of the blood force itself.
    Hence, as has been indicated, the body just missed a SERIOUS condition in producing portions of or partial paralysis at least.
12. (Q) Is there any rectum trouble?
    (A) This irritation arises from the poor eliminations and there should be still used the colon irrigations to reduce the disturbances throughout.
13. (Q) Why don't my bowels move naturally?
    (A) The lack of the peristaltic movement owing to the very dispositions and conditions through the system. The use of the Oils, but only WITH some heavy carrier - as the Psyllium Seed - would be beneficial; not too much but do not take the Psyllium unless the oils are taken also; the Russian oils and occasionally a little of the Olive Oil would be beneficial in this direction.
14. (Q) How much Psyllium and how often?
    (A) This is best to be taken about a tablespoonful with the morning meal and a teaspoonful with the evening meal; that is, of course, this put into the hot water, you see. This taken for three or four days, then left off. But take the oil, of course, BEFORE the meals, and the Psyllium AT the meals. The Usoline or the Russian While Oil; about two teaspoonsful.
15. (Q) Should I use the fifteen exercises of Dr. Thind's? [Dr. Bhagat Singh Thind, East Indian Teacher.]
    (A) Not until there is the elimination of those disturbances caused by the leakages along the circulatory channels. For these are too great a strain upon the circulation in the breathing AND the activity together.
16. (Q) Is the high enema injurious to use about three times a week?
    (A) Not if there is used the solution as indicated of saline and the soda; and followed with an alkaline antiseptic. This is not injurious. Do not have water warmer than body- temperature, nor colder; and it will be found beneficial and not injurious.
17. (Q) How about the sea kelp?
    (A) This is very good, but it is not necessary for this body at the present time. For the activity of same is from the iodine content in such a preparation; and this is heavy upon the circulation under the existent conditions. Let the stimulation through the manipulations equalize the circulation better before such is taken. However, the iodized salt - if this is used it would be preferable even to the kelp in the present.
18. (Q) How about the vegetable tablets?
    (A) These are very well; though the fresh vegetables prepared are preferable. For this then can be made with the proper balance.
19. (Q) What about liver extract pills?
    (A) Not in the present.
20. (Q) Should I use vibrator?
    (A) Vibrator is very good to use at any time, used not as something to be gotten through with but as for something to be accomplished with same.
21. (Q) Is the dilation of the colon being corrected?
    (A) Of the prolapsus, yes.
22. (Q) How about vegetable extracts I am taking; the fresh juices?
    (A) These are very well.
23. (Q) Any further advice for this body?
    (A) Be sure the use of the violet ray is not too strenuous but used sufficient - in the evening; the Oil rub and then this after same - to relax the body, see?
    And we will find these conditions will continue to improve.
    Do that.
    Keep the mental attitude in the constructive way and manner, as the body-mind understands. For not only is it necessary for there to be the proper corrections for the influencing of the physical activities to near normalcy, but preparing same for efficiency in constructive directions - ever.
24. We are through with this reading.
