There are some changes in this body since last we had it.
The body in itself is very good. The action and functioning
of the organs are very good. There are some abnormal
conditions in the way of the distribution of the blood
hemoglobin (that is the hemoglobin in the blood, you see) to
the rebuilding forces, especially in the lymphatic
circulation in the secretions carried on by the larger
organs, that is the liver and the kidneys. Too much is taken
up by the lymph to be thrown off through the respiratory
organs or the secretions; so there are at times produced in
the lymph too much of the salacilic [salicylic] to be
discharged without causing irritation to the cuticle. Much
of this is caused by the diet, or lack of change from time to
time of diet carrying change to the system. Should we add to
the system (that is to the present condition that we have
here of [
2483] properties carrying in themselves the action
that would dissolve some of this in the system, and not
irritate the cuticle so much, we would not only be
eliminating from the system but it would add a bit more of
vitality and buoyance to the body, and that we would find in
bicarbonate of soda. This would be taken in small
quantities; 1/2 drachm [dram?] once every third day until
there are six such doses taken. The correction in its action
is that the centers in the blood supply, that is where we
change from the veinous [venous?] circulation to the vein
circulation, acts on these centers, so that the taking up of
these atoms of bicarbonate of soda will be distributed
through the channels of the kidneys and liver rather than
carried back to the respiratory system. The action of this,
that is the blood supply, on the system acts at times when
the blood is discharging in to the cells, or the
clarification that produces the reflex condition; so that in
the upper end of the epiglottis is produced a condition,
formed through the lymph circulation, which will result as
mucous or secretion thrown out on account of the congestion.
As we dissolve this we relieve this condition.
There are some conditions in this body that are abnormal, but
the body is not sick. There is nothing in the outside, there
is nothing in the make-up of the world that is not in this
body. Physically, mentally, it is excellent. The spiritual
force as it acts within this body is very good.
(Q) [Question not listed on reading]
(A) Often extraordinary in their action and secretion. But
there is nothing abnormal in this condition; it is the action
of the diet taken into the system. What is needed is to
produce a balance of the sodas in the system, so that we have
perfect equality between the alkaline states in the body. Do
as we have given here, giving to the body thought and
expression, and it will remove these conditions that are
abnormal, but only slightly so.
(Q) How can this body cease constant snoring?
(A) This is natural to this body. This would have to be
overcome by using other means than natural ones. This state
of being in any body is the physical condition present to the
organs in use when in sleep; especially does this show itself
when one sleeps at the wrong times of day. If he would let
the breathing come through the nose instead of the mouth it
would tend to stop this condition. It is not objectionable
except to others, not to the body itself.
(Q) Can this body grow new teeth?
(A) It is possible for any body to produce that which it has
produced before. Everything that the body has by thought and
by action has been created in the body itself. If a perfect
balance is kept in the body itself the expression of thought
carries on the forces in the system to perform any of the
functioning of the body. Teeth are not likely to be produced
in this body as the spiritual forces in this body are not up
to this state in this body.
(Q) How can this body obtain the position he wishes in
Washington?
(A) Through the channels he has already begun he will find
he can obtain just what he wants. In this connection we will
find there is more than one thing to be taken into
consideration as to whether it will be best for this body; if
followed through the channels already begun, or along
political lines, we would say it would be good. This body is
capable of handling any conditions that present themselves.
(Q) Does the property owned by this body at Indianapolis
contain anything of value?
(A) We do not find it.
