TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1000]. Now, we find the conditions such improved in the physical reactions of the body; also the better coordination between sympathetic, cerebro-spinal, and also the reactions to the physical system from same.
2. We would continue much in the same way and manner as has been outlined, making more and more definite the activities of the body as toward interesting self in definite subjects, for definite conditions, for definite results. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) What causes pains in toes and soles of feet, especially right foot?
   (A) This from that retraction as occurs from the coordinating, or non-coordinating vibratory forces, as come from the brush end of cerebro-spinal, with the lower end of sympathetic, and is neurotic in its activity; that is, comes and goes as a spasmodic reaction or retraction. Not any condition to be wary of, other than to be mindful that the activities of the centers from which the radiation of the lower extremities are kept coordinating with the cerebro-spinal system.
4. (Q) What causes distress over sacral area and abdomen following Colonic irrigation?
   (A) Same reaction as has been given by that reaction of the system to produce coordination between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal in this portion of the system, and operates most directly with those of the lower ganglion [ganglia] where the branches come to the lower extremities. Hence the pressure as felt across the abdomen and the sacral region, but with the retractions - these are only retractions - and with the keeping up of the conditions to relieve these, these will come back to their near normal reaction. Be mindful only of that plexus in the sacral, where the cerebro-spinal in its lower end, with the sympathetic, and the activity of the locomotory centers.
5. (Q) Would enemas act as effectively as the Colonic irrigations?
   (A) No! Well were - when the limbs and the sacral are treated - the application of the lowest of the vibratory forces from the violet ray be applied to feet and ankles, and under knees, and across hips.
6. (Q) Is there any disturbance that causes pressure in nose and slight pain on left side of face, gums and head, and at times roof of mouth?
   (A) Incoordination between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal, radiating from the 5th cervical plexus. This has been given.
7. (Q) Why do feet and ankles swell?
   (A) The retraction from the condition as has been outlined, in the lower portion of the sacral and lumbar region.
8. (Q) Should any change be made in the diet? or treatment?
   (A) If it had been we would have given it! We said keep that!
9. (Q) What causes desire for frequent urination in night?
   (A) The retractions, as have been given.
10. (Q) Is it advisable for patient to remain in hospital or carry out treatment at home?
    (A) Remain in hospital.
11. (Q) Why does patient awaken with wide open eyes? suddenly?
    (A) Retraction from the activities of the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal, attempting to produce proper coordination throughout the system. Here we might have - in this particular case - that differentiation in the activities of a waking body and a resting body, as applied to the various activities of the nervous systems in the body. The sympathetic nervous system - which is so little, oftentimes, paid attention to - is that activity of the system which brings acuteness and awareness of the various conditions as effective in the system. It, as seen, running in the double manner along the line of the cerebro-spinal, also having its centers and connections through the various ganglia about the various centers from which the awareness of effective reaction through various portions of the functioning system are apparent, and these become - in their functioning, in their reaction - the separating elements in discernment, in application, in the reactions as come from those functionings. In this body, as is seen in this particular condition as is referred to, in the awareness - or the LOSTNESS as is felt by the body when it awakens, that there is not the proper coordinating between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal especially in that of the lumbar and sacral plexus, and in that of the 5th cervical plexus. These where - in the 5th cervical come to that of the sensory centers, where both sympathetic and cerebro-spinal are in accord with the system of the SENSORY system, or the sensitiveness of the brain's reaction. This, then, being improper reaction in system, brings about the awareness that does NOT coordinate or register properly in their centers, in and above the sensory brain force. Not weakening in the brain; not distresses even, save as the inability to separate properly, for they come as a flash - from both sympathetic, cerebro-spinal, and sensory system. See? We are through with this reading.
