TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [1467], present in this room, in particular reference to the problems connected with his wife, [263]. Considering the information which has been given through this channel and that apparent from the X-Rays of her spine, present in this room, you will advise [1467] just how much [263]'s physical condition has to do with her own personal problems and actions. Then you will advise him the best course for him to pursue in order to help [263] and to bring proper relationships in all phases of their lives together just now. You will answer the questions he may submit, as I ask them [See 263-21 Reports]:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [1467], together with the problems and conditions which have been indicated and which are apparent in the x-rays of the spine.
3. In considering these, all phases of the purposes and desires of each are to be taken into consideration. As indicated, much of the disturbance as to activities, and as to the inabilities of the body, [263], to keep in one purposefulness, arises from a physical condition in the body; and much arises from self.
4. Unless there can be obtained those cooperations, little may be accomplished. There have been periods when for a few weeks or a few days there was cooperation, and then those reactions have come that have brought disturbing factors and purposes in the mental body, [263].
5. As we find, those conditions existent in the segments in lower portion of the spine, the coccyx and lower lumbars, have been exaggerated by recent happenings. Hence as a result there may be expected longer periods of this inability of the body mentally to coordinate properly with the real desires of the mind, or the inability through the reflexes for a sustained coordination.
6. Yet there must be the decisions on the part of the body [263]. Then, when these decisions are made, aid the body in corrections. As we find, the better would be through those administrations of the sweat baths, but rather fume cabinet sweats, and the corrections, as may be given through or by Dr. Marion Dick. These would aid, but it will require sustained purpose on the part of [263].
7. And if this is not sustained, when corrections have been made and there are no longer those contributory causes from the effects of the sedatives, (then, if this does not change) it is all that can be asked of the body.
8. Then, DO NOT allow the antagonism to set the body, [1467], against itself and that which the body has gained through self-control.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) Any other advice?
    (A) The advice would be, then, to make an opportunity or undertake to give Dr. Marion Dick the complete picture, including the physical conditions which exist as indicated throughout the shadowgraph, also the mental attitude and the conditions which have existed. Do this personally and then effect the promise. Let it be understood that this is the final attempt and unless there are those changes, then you're through!
11. We are through with this reading.

REPORTS

1. 5/30/44 Mrs. [263] gave a favorable report of her course of treatments under Dr. Marion Dick (D.O.). In late '44 and early '45 she and [1467] were separated for several weeks but got back together and did a wonderful job of making their marriage work. Their married and home life was an inspiration to many, until her death on 7/20/63.
2. 2/18/64 Mr. [1467] remarried his first wife, mother of his son, saying [to GD] that he was trying to tie up all the loose ends of karma in his life, that the separation from her in the first place had been his fault - he had been too interested in other women and not doing his part to make the marriage work.
   He said that he had spent three weeks with [263]'s son [415] and his wife, last fall, and that they were getting on fine.
3. 5/01/64 GD's note: Mr. [1467] has remained a loyal supporter of the A.R.E. work through all these years, financially as well as in time and effort spent in furthering the interests of the EC work.
