TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
2. While conditions continue very serious, if there are those precautions, if there are those activities as their needs arise, we find that - while tissue and the resuscitating forces have been and are still very low - these offer the greater opportunity for the resuscitating forces being more and more revived; allowing more and more expression in this material experience.
3. Ready for questions.
4. (Q) What can be done to relieve bed soreness?
   (A) Equal portions of Olive Oil, Tincture of Myrrh and Tincture - Compound Tincture of Benzoin. Heat the Olive Oil to add the other ingredients, in the order named. Massage same or rub on, gently. This should make for such a stimulation in the superficial circulation - where there is the soreness or tenderness formed by the continual pressure in the areas where the body rests upon the bed - as to be more in accord with that which allows normal activity.
   Use this once, twice or more during a day, and it should be the more helpful for the body.
5. (Q) The place that has broken and bled - what application should be used on that, the place itself?
   (A) Camphorated Oil and things of such natures are the preferable, where there has been the breaking of tissues; and gauze placed on same; then the general portion that rests upon the bed massaged with the solution indicated.
6. (Q) Any other suggestions for making him more comfortable, or in regard to diet or nourishment?
   (A) Follow those suggestions that have been given for the general applications.
   As to the matter of the diets: Those things, to be sure, that will supply the greater balance of the elements that make for body-building. As whole wheat, or Maltex - rather than other cereals. These should be well-cooked. Or steel cut oats that are cooked for three to four hours. Or beef juice; not broth, but the juice. All of these should be given in very small quantities and the more often. Though these may appear as being often giving, or arousing the body, if there is kept that attitude of the body's seeking for sustenance rather than crowding the system, it will be the more helpful; and that taken will be the more palatable and will be retained the better - provided those influences that have been indicated are kept as a portion of the applications, WHEN necessary.
7. (Q) Is a teaspoonful of the beef juice too much at one time?
   (A) It should NEVER be GULPED! A teaspoonful at one taking, if swallowed all at once, would be too much; but a teaspoonful that would be taken in two or three sips, so that there are the activities from the system in its response - or as a taste, is not too much to be taken or given at a time; and may be given three or four or more times a day.
8. (Q) What sort of cream or milk would be best for the body to use with cereal?
   (A) That which is sterilized, or that which has come to a boil (of the raw milk); but not whole cream, nor that from which all the cream has been taken. Rather an equal mixture.
9. (Q) Is once a day too often for the colonics to be given?
   (A) At times it would be too often. But, as indicated, these should not be so given as to produce irritation to the rectum; but there should never be allowed days when there is not a passage or movement from the areas where the great quantity of inflammation is indicated in the abdominal area.
10. (Q) When the body is resting or sleeping most of the day, should it be aroused for the nourishment and various treatments?
    (A) The sleep is better than nourishment of any kind or treatments of any kind; UNLESS the sleep is that INDUCED. And if it is induced sleep, by the powder or tablets, then arouse.
11. We are through with this reading.
