1. GC: You will have before you the reading given on May 17, 1925, on [137] and you will answer the following questions, as I ask them, regarding same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the reading and information as given here. The changes in the physical body are bettered at present. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) What foods has the body taken and what stimulants to so tax the liver and kidneys? (A) In this particular instance, we see this was a combination of salads and oils that acted with the stimulant as taken in caffeine in the system, with the conditions in the mental forces already overtaxed, and the debilitation in blood supply, brought the taxing to the system. The conditions to be overcome are of the specifics as given. The conditions in a general manner are conditions to be met rather than of the specific one as given. Hence the injunctions as have been given as to how the system must be kept in the manner, in the way, in which the body may better assimilate, better given the incentives for functioning throughout.
As to what and which food stimulants the body should take, the body through its mental forces should and will be able to control better than any other indication. Then, never force foods of any kind which the body feels should or would be of hindrance to the body. Never rejecting in food or stimulants the body desires for the upbuilding of the physical forces of the body. Knowing this, that the mental forces of the body are capable, able, willing, to give the correct answer to that which may be set before the body, and to desire same when the body keeps the mental in that frame wherein there is not a combative element against the powers that be.
4. DO THAT. WE ARE THROUGH.
