TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2990].
3. As we find, there are disturbances that hinder in the better physical functioning of the body.
4. While there are pathological effects, we find that these conditions arise more from psychological - or what might be more thoroughly termed karmic - reactions in the body.
5. These may be materially aided by the application of material conditions to produce pathological results, yet we find that most of this healing must arise from the deeper consciousness within, as to its, the entity's, relationship to the Creative Forces - or God.
6. For, as indicated from the suggested sources of the trouble, the body, the soul, the mind meets itself. The HOW of this, then, is the real answer to the entity.
7. As so oft indicated for others, and as is known by the entity, - in Him is life, light and immortality. Not only, then, is the activity for the soul forces but also the application of self as related to Creative Forces or God, in its dealings with or relationships to others.
8. For, as ye do unto the least of thy brethren, of God's children, ye do unto Him - thy God, thy God-Self, thy soul-self.
9. As for the pathological conditions, - we find there are those disturbances in the glandular force of the adrenals, with suppressions in the upper dorsal and lower cervical, hindering the flow of life expression to the optic forces. And these have been and are gradually causing the flow of the fluid in the pupil of the eyeball itself to not harden but to become too fluid, and tending to harden the optic center that leads to the 3rd cervical, and 2nd and 3rd dorsal, and at that area in the lower portion of the 9th dorsal.
10. Hence it is necessary to make mechanical adjustments so that the influences for the abilities of the mind, the purpose of the soul forces, may coordinate with the mental and the material forces of the body itself. For, these must all coordinate one with another.
11. Thus may we bring the better influences to the body.
12. Then:
13. About once each week, in the evening, apply a Glyco-Thymoline pack over the lower area of the 9th dorsal center, or 9th and 10th dorsal center, for at least two hours. Use at least four or five thicknesses of soft cotton material well saturated with the Glyco-Thymoline.
14. The next day, - under an osteopath well acquainted with, or a specialist in, eye activities - or eye surgery, eye treatment, - ADJUST that area, as well as in the lower portion of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th dorsal, and through the cervical area.
15. This will supply the mechanics to the body for the best conditions from the body-forces themselves.
16. Then, the healing may come through the attitude of the body-mind to Creative Forces, as it applies to its relationships to others.
17. Do that, prayerfully, sincerely; knowing that in Him is ALL healing.
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) Should the sinus condition have any special treatment?
    (A) You will have special treatment when the adjustments are given through the dorsal and cervical, and of course the head treatments will be to the sinus.
20. (Q) Does this have any bearing on the eye condition?
    (A) This is rather a sympathetic condition. The sinus is more from the eye condition than the eye condition is from sinus.
21. (Q) What is the source of infection causing the eyes to become weaker and weaker?
    (A) Read that just indicated. It arises from the entity, the SOUL-self meeting its own self. But meet it in Him. For, know, one may not - no one may - do it alone. But through grace, through mercy, through patience, through love, ANY condition may be met in Him.
22. We are through for the present.

    [Remarks after reading: Been under observation of two eye specialists for some time; they say she is gradually going blind; every six months glasses get stronger; can't find source of infection.
