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.
3. As we find disturbances here indicate - as they are active principles through the sensory organisms of the body and the sensory system - an incoordination between the impulses, the brain reflexes, and the spiritual forces of the body.
4. Thus the condition is karmic in its reaction.
5. Those who are responsible for the body-physical need not feel that this responsibility can be delegated to someone else, even though others may be physically better able to cope with or to train the body for its present conditions.
6. These disturbances might be helped if there would be the daily prayer together of those responsible for the body; not one day and then skip one, but each day for a period of three hundred sixty-five days. As the body goes to sleep let those responsible for the body-physical meet over the body, or with the body, and in prayer make suggestions to the body as it sleeps.
7. True this should have been begun six years ago but it still may aid.
8. Do not begin unless there is sincerity in both parents of this entity.
9. Otherwise, let others give that instruction, that help - for the body is meeting itself; but so must those responsible for this entity meet themselves.
10. Ready for questions.
11. We are through with this reading.
