As we find, there has been then, in this respect, rather the
lack of setting an IDEAL to which that that is within self
may be offered as a tribute, that may offer or find in the
abilities of self a means of expression - see? for with an
ideal, and not just an idea, there is the constant action
from the mental, the imaginative, and the spiritual forces of
an entity, to express or bring into manifestation that as
would be a contribution to, a credit to, an active force of
showing or manifesting, or bring to light that as is viewed
by self of that as is held as one's ideal. Not an ideal as
of exaltation of self above another; not as that would take
from another that self might have; not that as would make for
that that would allow self to lord self OVER another; but
rather as the beauties in nature, each attempting to show in
its face, or its activity - as it blooms or stretches forth
its action in nature towards the heavens - as of glorifying
of that as is its contribution for that as has been received
by that thing in its own experience. So in this body, in
giving vent to that in words as would bring into being that
as would make for a manifesting of emotions in individual
thought, this may through such ways and manners bring to the
body that of a manifestation of giving to others, in verse,
that that would mean much in the experience of another; or in
the contributions as may be made in the decorative forces of
the imaginative system of the body, as to put into execution
the concept of that seen or visioned as represents the
contributions of things, individuals, circumstances, and the
like, of THAT concept of what it, they, or group, hold as an
expression of their ideals under varying circumstances; for
the life reflects the concept that life has of its source in
its activity, whether as that that would be a leech upon its
source of existence, or a contribution TO that that may bring
life itself into force and being.
In the physical forces of the body, we find these are good in
many ways and manners. The desires of the body that there be
those offerings of the flesh, that there may be brought into
being those that would represent, or present, the efforts of
the body in this experience, there are - as we find -
CONTRIBUTING causes, both in the physical and in the
abilities of the body to bring into CONCEPT that as would be
its representation. A study of the mental and spiritual
towards an ideal will mentally, imaginatively, PREPARE the
body FOR that as may be accomplished in same - and we would
add, from the exterior forces, that as will make for those
corrections in the physical being as would prepare the vessel
through which this concept, or through which conception may
take place with the body.
The blood supply is well.
The nerve forces of the body show attunement that, in some
respects, when there would be the conception of - and over
activity of same - the vessel or the womb itself does not
contain, or bring about that as would make for conception in
the body itself. The position of same is near normal, but
the tendencies of the organ to flow out - rather than to
close in its normal activity at such a period - is apparent,
from those conditions as have taken place when there were,
for periods, that which would tend to think - or tend to act
- as if this HAD taken place.
As we will find, there should be those applications, then, to
the physical body, in such a way and manner as to bring this
condition about for the body:
At least two to five days before the periods of menstruation,
for two to three moons, we would use a steam sitz bath. The
STEAM; not sitting in the water or bath - but prepare as in
THIS manner:
Two gallons of BOILING water poured into a container, see?
To this water (plain water) add a pinch of alum, one aloe
bud, fifteen minims of tincture of myrrh, and tolu gum (pure
tolu gum) the size of a pea - English pea.
When this has been prepared, then sit OVER such - so that the
puba and the vagina is exposed to the STEAM from same, for
five to eight minutes.
Do this three to give times - that is, from two to five days
before (once each day) - before the regular periods. ONCE
after the cleansing, or after period - see?
We would also taken, during this same period (except keep on
to a longer period, of three to five days after the period),
two to five minims of Chloride of Gold, as THIS solution:
One GRAIN to one ounce of distilled water, and three grains
of Bromide of Soda to one ounce of distilled water. Keep
these separate until ready to be taken. Then put one drop of
the Gold solution to three drops of the Soda solution, into a
half glass of water - see? Do not take this more than once
each day, PREFERABLY just before retiring.
Have - after periods - also - two to three days - a general
massage. Not a manipulation as osteopathically; not as
chiropractic adjustments - but rather a Swedish massage for
the whole body.
Do this, and we will find that in three to five months
conception may take place.
As for the general conditions of which the body should be
warned:
Be mindful that there is not too much exposure for the lungs
and for the feet, for the tendencies or weaknesses are in
these directions - but with a well rounded activity, in so
much for the mental body, so much for the social body, so
much for the spiritual indulgences in those of meditation
and prayer, so much for the exercising of the talents -
either in writing or drawing, or picturizations, we will find
the body will find for self, for others, that that makes for
a well rounded life, that will become more and more worth
while in this experience.
We are through for the present.
