TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find the abnormal conditions that need correction in this body have to do with the mental and psychical forces within this body and the effect as produced by this condition. Now these are the conditions as we find them in this body: through the nerve forces in the system we find there is improper co-ordination between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nervous systems. This causes variation in the circulation and through the effect where the circulation crosses, or incentives to portions of the body, these effects cause the condition as exist through the inferior muscles of the vocal cords, which carries or throws off the dross, or that thrown off, through which they traverse, making the eliminating conditions in the system.
2. The impressions as they reach this body come through the action of the sensory organism of the body, with the sensory nerve, the pneumogastric, cerebrospinal crossing, or being connected here in the cervical region. We find that through the over-taxed condition; so the normal expression to the body becomes above the normal self at times, and again the body becomes supersensitive to all that it comes in contact with.
3. With the circulation balanced through the action of the coronary artery forces, and with pneumogastrics throwing or giving the incentives of the circulation to carry the normal flow through the system, the physical becoming sensitive or conscious of its ability to produce the perfect co-ordination of forces in the body, and all become subjugated to the consciousness of the physical forces within the body, without the co-ordination between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal organism and their juncture. The body becomes under the control of the forces of the sympathetic organism entirely, then the body is lacking in its ability to bring through it the conscious self of the functioning of the organs so affected.
4. The functioning of the other organs of the trunk portion of the body, we find intact.
5. To give the perfect control over the whole system, so we would keep, and consciously have, at all times, is to bring the vibration of the organs, and nerve, and tissue, of this portion of the body under sujugation of the individual self. This we would accomplish by having the correct vibration to the body, so that the equilibrium may be established in the physical, between that and the other forces within the body. We would assist this to its perfect accord by keeping these elements within the developing of the conscious mind, the positive control, control, control, of self, with the vibrations corrected to give their incentives.
6. Give the vibrations to the body that would be found in a battery made in this manner and form: Take two pieces of steel one half an inch wide, a quarter of an inch thick, two and a half inches long; bind these together, with a piece of carbon between them. To each of the steels attach a small wire. These wires in turn would be long enough to attach to a single plate. The plate, each evening, when suggestions are being taken to the body from the individual body itself, this should be attached to the ankle, first to one, then to the other. When attached to the body for the time of one hour each evening, and for thirty minutes of the time when this is attached, place one hand in water. To one gallon of water add one half pound of heavy salt, one-half pound plain charcoal, one-half pound copper sulfate, three drams of zinc, one ounce of sulfuric acid C.P. This solution will last from three to four weeks. The second quantity would necessarily be made before the body would find the circulation and nerve force so equalized as to give the equilibrium throughout the system.
7. Keep up the suggestion, the reading, the self-sustaining ego as this is developed.
8. The body should take more specific exercises for the neck and head than it does. Take that of backward, forward and circling of the head and neck for ten minutes morning and evening.
9. (Q) Have you anything else to say about this body.
   (A) Do as we have given to bring the perfect balance to this body. We are through.
