EC: Yes, we have the body here, [
758] - this we have had
before. Now, we find conditions have not been so good in
the physical functionings of the body. There have been those
conditions both astrological as well as those in the physical
functioning that have produced more incoordination than we
have had for some time back. This makes for that tendency of
the incoordinating in the upper cervical to the reactions of
the nerve and muscular forces in the physical body, producing
- with its reaction - a congestion in the eliminating through
the stomach proper; so that BOTH disorders are aggravating to
the physical condition. We find that, will there be [if
there will be] precautions taken as to the diet - and not
over exciting the body in any manner, increasing the dose of
the Mayblossom Bitters - not sufficient to make for that
irritation as may come to the intestinal system - and with a
more relaxation through the manipulations in the LUMBAR and
lower DORSAL area - the body would be bettered. Will be well
also that for periods - Now this, as we find, will be
necessary to change occasionally - but those of the no salt
diet, and THEN periods when there IS and OVER quantity, as it
were, of the salt - see? that is, when the body desires
same, let this be taken in its original state, rather than in
the foods, as he would taste sugar, or as he would take on
tongue. We will find that during those periods when there
was NO salt taken in the foods, which won't be at any time,
with it used in this manner, see? but when it is not given
to take dry, well that very small doses of Atomidine be given
- this will clarify the conditions. Do not give more than
three drops at a time, though the dosage on the bottle may
call for ten. Just give three drops ONCE each day. Do this
for five to ten days, then skip a period of at least three
to five days, see? Ready for questions. Do not, with the
manipulations that are given, overtax those in the CERVICAL.
Will there be [if there will be] the proper manipulations
given in the lumbar, the sacral, and the lower dorsal, FIRST,
there will not be so much tautness when the manipulations in
the UPPER dorsal AND cervicals are given, see? because some
tautness remains there. While those that are given in the
upper dorsal will aid that condition where there has lately
appeared rather an incoordination in the vision, where these
were as squinting more than usual, or more blinking when
attempting to FOCUS the eye. This indicates that pressure in
the cervical region, see, but - as has been given - to relax,
in THIS body, best for the cervical not to have too much
manipulation, but more in the lumbar and dorsal where the
INCOORDINATING begins in this body!
(Q) When the body gets these attacks, why does his mouth
twitch to left side?
(A) For the contraction along those of the sympathetic
system, which makes for the incoordination through the
central nerve system, is weaker on THAT side. Hence the
more CONTRACTION there, see?
(Q) What was meant in previous readings when it said many
will call this entity blessed?
(A) For the peace, harmony, and GOOD the entity, the body,
will bring into the lives of others. Hence, as has oft been
said, those that would lend to the aiding of this body, this
body-consciousness, to gaining his normal equilibrium,
physically AND mentally, are doing MUCH for their own
development.
(Q) In what way will this body give pleasure to those
who are interested?
(A) In the many ways and manners that, physically and
mentally, and through the music of the body, bring joy,
peace, and UNDERSTANDING, to those directly interested.
(Q) Is present school good for body, and is it advisable to
continue sending him there?
(A) The associations of others, as has been given, is ALWAYS
good for the body, provided there is not the attempt for
FORCE TOO much MENTAL strain EVER for the body. Let it be a
natural growth, for the MENTAL abilities are there - just
dormant, or inactive in the present.
(Q) When will they become active?
(A) As the corrections, as the coordinations, become more
and more nearer the normal. As to just how soon this will
be, as we have given, the greater CHANGE will come WITH the
change in the physical conditions of the body, as the change
from childhood into those of adolescence, and this will be an
anxious period, but properly cared for in the present will
bring much bettered conditions that have been said by many
couldn't exist.
(Q) Should battery treatments be continued again?
(A) The battery treatments are EVER HELPFUL to the body,
when they are put so as to make an even balance in the
circulation of the body, or vibrations.
(Q) Have they been given correctly?
(A) These have been very good. There have been excesses of
other conditions and more strain in this cervical region than
there should have been put!
(Q) Would Dr. Bernhardi in Jamaica be the doctor to
administer the treatments, or would it be best to have
Dr. Grace Berger?
(A) Dr. Bernhardi may DO it, will he [if he will] conform
to those suggestions, or the outline as has been given! If
he will not, then we would take it to the other!
(Q) Should this body have codliver oil?
(A) This is always good for DEVELOPING bodies, for it
carries those vitamins that are not found in but very few
foods.
(Q) How can this body be built up, so as to ward off colds
and stomach upsets that come so frequently?
(A) As we find, if we will follow very closely along this
outline as has been given, these will ward off these
conditions. The VITALITY low, makes easy access for cold or
congestion, or for the cold germ. With the vitality, or with
the nerve reactions coming, without coordination, makes for
stomach upsets, as do foods that are of the natures as has
been outlined.
(Q) Should more food be given?
(A) If it's kept well balanced, more food will be well for
the body - just so it is able to take care of the digestion.
The assimilations are good. The weakness lies in the
abilities of the lacteals to DIGEST an over-abundance, but
being kept well balanced will gradually make for bettered
conditions, as will these things that have been given aid in
creating elements in the system, in all the glands of the
system, a bettered condition.
(Q) Are present glasses correct, or should eyes be examined
now?
(A) Let's rather follow these suggestions for ten days or
two weeks, then if these have not made sufficient corrections
for the condition, then we would have the eyes examined and
glasses changed. We are through with this reading. (After
GC said "That's all the questions.")
