TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [751], present in this room; this we have had before.
2. Now, as we find, the conditions in the physical forces of the body show changes for betterment in the general physical forces of the body. And if there will be carried out those suggestions that have been given for the furthering of the betterment, or making for the balance in the functioning of the organs as related to the secretions through and of the glands that make for the correcting of the equilibrium in the body, these will continue to be on the improve.
3. As we find, it would be well that the centers in the lumbar area, as has been indicated, and especially those nerve ends about the coccyx area, receive that stimuli THROUGH the manipulations occasionally for the correction or stimulation to the activity as will assist the whole of the reactions to make for better normal conditions.
4. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Why do I not see improvement in my condition?
   (A) This condition has been of a gradual reaction or LACK of reaction in the functioning of the glands as related to those disturbing factors in the system. Hence these of necessity must first be stimulated as has been indicated, that there have been those stimulations for their activity. Then those properties added to the system that are necessary for the functioning of the glands especially in the organs that have shown, still show, an abnormal or subnormal activity. Hence the condition is a growth, and has of necessity been slow in its reaction.
6. (Q) How often now should the osteopathic treatments for the lumbar and coccyx area be given?
   (A) Two or three times each month for two or three months.
7. (Q) Did Dr. Dobbins give the massages as suggested in my reading correctly?
   (A) In the main, yes. There were added some and there were not sufficient of those about the coccyx end.
8. (Q) Should Dr. Dobbins have inserted finger in rectum in giving treatments?
   (A) These we find would not have been necessary, for they should have been rather in holding or pressure upon the nerve ends in the end of the spine or the coccyx area, ABOUT the rectum rather than IN or to the glands that make for an irritation by such a drastic treatment.
9. (Q) Is the area I am pressing now the proper place to massage?
   (A) Move lower down and catch closer to the edge of the sciatic nerves. That's better!
10. (Q) Is it the right place now?
    (A) The pressure on this side, yes, and on the other side the same.
11. (Q) Is the inability to retain an erection a mental or physical condition? Please explain this condition.
    (A) As has been indicated in those activities of the glands, these are necessary for the activities to produce the reaction in the system necessary for the normal or proper functioning of the organs of regeneration or gestation. Then, we would say this is a physical condition; else we would not be giving or maintaining that it is necessary for the balancing in the system of the elements that make for the sustaining of same. This has been indicated by those properties that have been suggested. But first the cleansing of the activities, or of the glands themselves and their activities, through properties that create or supply the material elements for their activity in a physical body. Then the supplying of that in the system through the Gold and in the order or manner that is the basis of nerve energy, not only in the de-genital activities but for the nerve stamina in nerve energy and forces of the body. And as has been given in those activities for even the mental reactions, this element supplies in the internal activity an influence for same. A physical condition, a mental reaction.
12. (Q) What is the cause of the headache which the body has now?
    (A) Acidity.
13. (Q) What effect on my physical body did what was done to me on Monday morning, March 18th, have?
    (A) Making for a nerve reaction that will eventually make for helplessness in some directions, but will only be temporary unless the bases or causes of reactions are maintained.
14. (Q) Please explain this further.
    (A) This is as given. Unless that which is the cause of the activity in the system is removed, this will only be of temporary aid or help.
15. (Q) Will you explain what was done?
    (A) He knows what was done!
16. (Q) In order to reassure me in regard to following treatments suggested, will you tell me what is contained in the bottle which I hold in my hand?
    (A) We are through.
