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 the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.
2. EC: We have the body here.
3. Now we find this is a very interesting study, would one consider the various elements that enter into the causes of the physical disturbance with this body. A condition that is such as to thoroughly demonstrate where too much doctoring can bring more troubles than efficient results, where many administered conditions have become the troubles rather than that which was producing the troubles in the first place. A condition wherein there is seen that the physical elements and forces have become dependent - in a great measure - for that stimulus or incentive - from things or conditions administered, rather than from the basis of its own functioning through the incentive of the body replenishing itself through the normal channels. This character of condition, as is thoroughly demonstrated here - [88] we are speaking of - that the body-physical may not mechanically depend upon mechanical conditions for the sustenance; that the body must function through its own storehouse of energies to build and replenish itself, or the worlds within its own atomic forces must so coordinate that the whole process of creation is carried on within the physical being of the individual. Hence, to meet the needs of this body - these conditions under the present surroundings - one must begin to study the condition from this viewpoint.
4. One may not seek, then, to destroy natural conditions given for the resuscitation of life and creative elements within the physical body, as is set forth in the first elements, without undergoing those conditions of again being rejuvenated through those same channels that have been abused through such conditions.
5. Then, to meet the needs of the body at present is to first begin in the way and manner wherein that, that already
88-1 Page 2
in hand - condition already existent - and the elements of the life giving forces of the body may be resuscitated through their own volition of the various laws of propagating life cell forces in self, in that the atomic forces going to make up blood, bone, cell, nerve, and the various functioning glands of the system that resuscitate life assimilating forces, so that each cell within itself may have the proper incentive for replenishing that necessary within the system that each cell may reproduce that first law as is of the universal forces - the ability to reproduce itself within the live organism of its own being. This then will find that the basis of this must come through the rejuvenating of the cellular nerve system and the blood supply of the body, as it relates to the ability of this blood to give that necessary for the resuscitation of life, and that taken away from the system through the same blood stream that tends to destroy or to block conditions in system. That these may coordinate together - this is the beginning of the body building back to a normal force from within itself.
6. Taken, studied, builded in this direction - this may be accomplished within the physical forces of this body, even as yet - and overcome all of these troublesome conditions that vary according to the varying functionings of the various portions of the body in their cycle of resuscitation as reference to the body building itself in a life cycle.
7. Then, to meet these would be to have those of the manipulation and masseur in the way and manner that the whole body may receive the proper relaxation for the full even flow of the blood stream through the system. Now get this! Not as has BEEN received by body, but in the way and manner that all centers of the cerebrospinal and sympathetic system that form plexus of functioning with the various organs of the body may be so relaxed that the blood stream may flow through same in a manner that will bring coordination of the impulse from such radiating centers. Adding to the blood stream and the nerve reflexes that power that comes through proper oxidization and proper straining, or the ability to be in active force through clarifying of same by the application of such rays as found in the ultra-violet or Alpine ray. Let the manipulations be given at times EVERY day, at other times every OTHER day dependent upon the response mentally and physically of the body. At least every OTHER day the application of either the ultra-violet or Alpine or quartz light rays along the cerebrospinal system. This will then BEGIN the resuscitation of the correct principles for this body to
88-1 Page 3
build back to its normal forces - but these then must be kept from time to time in the PROPER channel, UNTIL the system may respond in all its centers that necessary life supplying forces for the resuscitation, the rebuilding, of those forces in the body that will produce the near normal physical condition in the body, [88]. Do that.
8. We are through for the present.
