Time of Reading 12:00 Noon Eastern Standard Time. ..., Ill. (Body and enquiring mind - questions regarding business and all phases of his life)
1. EC: Yes, we have the enquiring mind, [165] - this we have had before, associations, interests, and relations regarding this. These we have had before. Ready for questions.
2. (Q) What element besides carbon is to be used in the cored carbon for ash for Mrs. [409]? [See 409-1 on 7/19/29.] (A) Carbon cored with the regular carbon as is filled in same for lights, that operate through the regular electrical vibrations as are stepped up to high voltage from a regular current.
3. (Q) In making salve from the Ash, what carrier shall be used? (A) Castile.
4. (Q) What is the formula for taking the ash internally? (A) This is to be determined by the conditions as are apparent with the individual and is the necessity for the various experiments that will be needed to determine that ratio under various conditions and effects. As seen in this particular condition as referred to - [409], this will be one to three grains in water taken before the treatments are accorded from the rays of the mercury or quartz light, so that the releasing of the oxygen in system will take place in proper conditions or places in system to become effective to that as is to be created in system, or active principles in blood supply of the body. In others, we will find a much variation, or varied conditions as to the dose or dosages. There will be required, as has been given, two to three drams of ash for this particular body, see?
5. (Q) In making salve, what should be the proportion of each? (A) This will be determined by the varied conditions as are to be the elements to combat in treatments. This another reason for the varied forms of experimentation with varied conditions. For example, in cases where there is a rash produced by that as has been called a form of eczema, the ash will be taken internally with a different form of
165-10 Page 2
electric treatment, and the application for exterior will be in the dry powder; while in other characters of the same condition, where they become the nature as is known as a constitutional breakdown between the eliminating system and the rash, or the condition a result from same, the proportion would be three to four grains to four to six drams of the pure castile soap, or castile as the carrier, see?
6. (Q) What one of the pollen-antigens is body to secure for his sister, Mrs. [5639]? [She has asthma and hay fever. See 5639-1 on 7/8/29 and 5639-2 on 7/25/29.] (A) The ragweed antigen, or pollen-antigen.
7. (Q) Where can it be secured? (A) From any of those laboratories that manufacture same. We have one in Detroit, another in Columbus, Ohio, another in Chicago, another in New York, another in 'Frisco, another in Denver. [GD's note: Above Par. 6-A and 7-A are extracted and indexed in his sister's reading, 5639-2.]
8. (Q) What will be the result of visit with Ben Francis two weeks ago at Carolina Wood Products factory? (A) This may be determined later on. This would be an attempt to tell a man's change of mind. As is seen from that of [165]'s attitude, very good - and the results should be satisfactory. As to what attitude another individual [will take - prophecy] - that may change, even by the crook of a finger, the change of a mark, or any association. These conditions and relations as respecting the character of individual with whom the contact was made, this has been well described to the body, and this should make KNOWN to the body that which is to be met or combated with - but, as has been given, the attitude will be, let the product and the use of same bespeak that which is attempted to be accomplished through the use of the product.
9. (Q) Should body purchase a lot at Virginia Beach? (A) Very good. If for speculation, good. If for personal use, better. If for speculation AND use, still better.
10. (Q) If purchase should be made with group, who are they? (A) Choose for self! WE wouldn't choose for you!
11. (Q) Is the plan a good one to hold first meeting of the "Holdings Company for Health Room Experimentations" in N.Y., August 19th? (A) Very good. The sooner the better - for, through some of the channels, many of the conditions as have been asked concerning may be worked out, as has been intimated or given - for these, as has been intimated and given, are of a far-reaching nature, and the associations can be MADE helpful, beneficial, in many various channels. That which
165-10 Page 3
can be helpful can also be detrimental. There has been the outline of policies, character of policies, as should ever determine those that would seek or would use, or would apply information as may be given from, through, by, or of such sources as these. They, the sources, [psychic sources] have their natural laws, just as others and to become compatible with, and useful to, an individual must be applied in that way and manner, or they may turn as a boomerang to one using or attempting to use such. These are the sources from which that is meant to be helpful, mindful, of the other fellow - and not of a purely selfish motive can one expect to gain thereby. Let this, then, be a means of self's development, in being of aid, assistance and helpfulness to the other fellow, and the position, the moneys, the bigness will be the result. Seeking for that as the result - yes -
12. (Q) Should group consist of [900], [137], [195], [257], [4995] and [165]? (A) Well - there's others that have been left out. These are very good to begin with. There's others been left out and that should be considered also.
13. (Q) Who are these others? (A) Seek them!
14. (Q) Any special suggestion or advice as to this meeting of 19th? (A) Let it be on the basis of what has just been suggested or outlined, that the result must be first the assistance, the other the effect. We are through. Copy to Ass'n office " " Self " " Datastician " " Mrs. [1381]
