1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [146]. Nice looking boy! [GD's note: We later saw him. He WAS nice looking; could not tell from appearance anything wrong.]
2. Now, we find, while the body is very good in many respects, the body development, the mental development, and the coordinations in some respects are at times very good, there has existed a pressure in the body from the time of presentation - for there was a breach presentation, and in the turn there was made a pressure, which has an effect at periods upon the coordination of impulses and activities. These, as we find, should have closed in action, and been only from the sensory reactions along cerebrospinal centers, but in the ends of the cerebrospinal we also have those connections or vibratory forces set up in system that produce that which causes the activities to become so over accentuated as to cause, in the development of the body, the loss of equilibrium - which is the cause of at times the crying, the temper, the sitting down hard - which is an attempt of the body to ADJUST itself; for these centers, which should be closed, radiate from the first sacral centers, so that at times - when there have been activities along the spine - there has been, as it were, a delayed activity in these reactions, when these were allowed to begin in their normalcy again oft they began to re-occur in this incoordinating manner. Now, coordination of the digestive system acts at times with same; so, FOLLOWING same, nausea at times occurs, as do headaches, dullness of vision - not of mind, but vision, and thickness of speech. In the coordinating of the blood supplies of body, these are good. In the coordinating of the system as related to eliminations - for lungs, heart's action, liver, spleen, kidneys - all show a normalcy, as does the blood count show negative.
3. In meeting, then, the needs of the conditions for this body - while it will require some time, and some persistency AND consistency - these, as we find, applied in a PROPER
146-1 Page 2
manner, will bring a normalcy; first in the reduction and in the change of this INACTIVITY, or rather OVERACTIVITY - not INCOORDINATION in this case, but the RESULT is incoordination - not incoordination producing same. This, we find, will be brought to a normalcy.
4. First we would prepare as this: These, as we find, are to be taken internally - consistently - for two to three months, or moons - that is, periods of twenty-eight days of each. Then we would give changes as would be necessary.
5. First prepare fourteen capsules - three grains each - of plain iodide salt, see? One to be taken every other evening, as the body is ready to retire. That this will produce an overactivity of the kidneys will not INJURE; neither will it produce improper FUNCTIONING of same, but will make for a STABILIZING of that vital force necessary in the organs of genitation, as development begins, to relieve that pressure as comes toward the pineal center - which is the center of attraction that causes the disorder.
6. When these have been taken - which will be twenty-eight days, see - take twenty-eight doses of the Mayblossom Bitters. This will have REDUCED conditions but will NOT have cured; only PREPARING the body for those applications or vibrations that we may then GIVE the body for the full and complete corrections. The Mayblossom Bitters should be made in the order as given, in JUST the Bitters [as in 1001-10 on 9/24/30] - but an ADDITION to same will be two ounces of the Tincture of Ginseng, see? This, with those conditions as will have been created by the calcium chloride, or salt, will have brought about that which - by the first of the year, or following the Christmas holidays - we will give the further corrections. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) What should be the dosage of the Mayblossom Bitters? (A) Teaspoonful.
8. (Q) Once a day? (A) Twice each day.
9. (Q) Before or after meals? (A) Upon rising and before retiring. Before eating the day meals, and after they are finished - see?
10. (Q) Should the salt be given for twenty-eight doses before the Mayblossom Bitters is begun? (A) The salt is to be given FOURTEEN doses in twenty-eight days. Every other day. Then, after these have been given - THEN we begin with the twenty-eight doses of the Mayblossom Bitters, see?
11. (Q) Should all medicines now being given be stopped? (A) That must of necessity be determined by those under whom the body is in charge, for these are felt at times to
146-1 Page 3
be necessary - but let's get as far away as possible from these sedatives, which are producing pressures that must injure, and get BACK to a normalcy!
12. (Q) Should the luminal be discontinued altogether? (A) Gradually.
13. (Q) Why does he not talk? (A) This is that pressure that we are removing! as is given as respecting how this has affected, from the beginning, the SENSORY organism. The sensory organism - let's describe this, so you will understand here: The sensory organism meaning the eyes, the ears, the sense of smell, the sense of speech, the sense of touch and their coordinating centers, are the gradual development of the imaginative and the SYMPATHETIC system of nerves in body coordinating with centers in the cerebrospinal, that register in the brain. The sense of speech is the highest developed vibration in an organism, for it partakes of the vision, the hearing, the feeling, and ALL to combine same. Hence these are ACTIVE from those coordinating forces of the other sensory centers, which range from sympathetic system to the cerebrospinal and register impulse in brain. As given here, brain forces are good with the body, as is the bodily development, as is the vision, as is the hearing, as is the sense of touch; for the body may be termed OVER sympathetic. In the vibratory forces as come from those centers on each side of the plexus opposite the first of the sacral plexus, these produce that drawing to the back of head or neck, in the 2nd dorsal, 3rd and 4th cervical, as prevents same from producing other than a not FULL vibration, see? Hence the backwardness in the talk, the tendency to grunt and indicate with hands, eyes, feet, or body, rather than ATTEMPT to try full expression, for fear of producing an over vibratory force in body. Follow these and we will get it properly!
14. (Q) Can this treatment be given successfully at Rosehill School? (A) Just give the doses of medicine! and then, when it becomes time we will change it!
