1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with special reference to the trouble with the throat, and suggestions for the relief of same.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We have had this before, you see. There are many changes in the condition with this body at the present time from that as we have had before. The condition of speech in the body, when in the physical normal conditions, is produced by the paralysis produced in the interior muscles governing the vocal cord and prevent the vibration in the right vocal cord, else with this same condition produced in both there would be no sign or vibration from either. This condition produced through the psychological effect as is produced in physical forces through nerve tension and strain, and there is little of the pathological effect produced in the physical forces save reflexly, which under the strain of the nerve system becomes a physical condition. In this manner direct do we find that the variation comes between the natural physical voice and that when in the condition at the present time, for we find the variation is reflected in the manner of speech, for speech is the highest vibration that is reached in the animal kingdom, and in that respect man in his evolution is above that of the other creatures in the creation.
3. To give that necessary then for this body, in the present condition, give those suggestions, for the body in this psychic condition is amenable to suggestion. Relieve then through increased circulation to those parts that do not vibrate properly, and removing the dross from those conditions the vibration will come to the normal condition in the body.
4. Do that.
5. (Q) Now the circulation will increase to the parts that need be, so that it will remove the trouble with the speech and the rest of the body that needs it. When it has been relieved, you will say "This trouble is removed." When the trouble is removed the circulation will become normal in the body again.

(A) It is removed.
[GD's note: In the years following, whenever [294] was under great strain, physically or mentally, his voice would disappear and he could only speak in a whisper. As soon as he could put himself into the psychic or trance state, the above suggestion given to him while in that state would remove the condition. I personally witnessed many times the change in color of his skin around face and throat as the circulation began to increase by the power of suggestion.]
