GC: You will have before you the body of [
1994], born
December 15, 1925, in Alexandria, Egypt; who is now in the
care of Miss [...], out on Route 2, ..., Pennsylvania. You
will answer the questions regarding his development, as I
ask them:
EC: Yes, we have had the physical reactions here.
As we find, there needs to be kept a little closer
application of those suggestions which have been made,
IF THERE WOULD BE the eventual elimination of the causes,
and the proper mental and physical development toward the
nearer normalcy. Else, these pressures will continue to
deflect the normal coordination between the impulses of
the subconscious, as well as the mental self, and the
reactions from the normal physical development; thus
continuously producing greater warring influences to be
dealt with by an already disturbed and troubled mental
reaction.
The Castor Oil Packs, as well as the massages, SHOULD be
kept much closer in outline with those suggestions which
have been made, - if the eventual results desired would be
obtained.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Is it indicated that he will ever get any better?
(A) This depends upon how much faith there is, and how much
there is the practical spiritual and mental applications made
in those directions which have been outlined as the channels
for improvement.
(Q) Is it best for him to live at home or away?
(A) This will depend upon the environs and the influences
or purposes of the home, and the abilities of those in
other environs to cope with or to carry on the suggestions
indicated.
Where these can be BEST handled is the best environ.
(Q) What sort of life should he have?
(A) As much in the open as practical, and with those things
that are of a building or constructive nature; especially in
that of weaving, whether in cloth or in basket making, or of
such natures.
(Q) Should any drugs be given?
(A) As much as possible, keep away from these.
(Q) Should he be made to learn to read and write again?
(A) These should be created as the DESIRES in the mental
self as related to the needs for better communication and
associations with others.
(Q) Should he be sterilized?
(A) Will be better.
(Q) Should he be trained for any particular kind of work?
(A) As has been indicated.
We are through for the present.
