Time of Reading ... St., 11:15 to 11:30 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [338]; this we have had before - [338].
2. Now as we find, conditions are much improved from that as we have had here before.
3. There is a more normalcy in the pulsation, and improvement in the pressure, and a better coordination between the heart's activity and the hepatic circulation.
4. As we find, those administrations that have been given are very well.
5. The only alteration we would give would be a stimulation to the activity of the lower hepatic circulation, or that the activities of the system in creating this balance through the circulatory forces might be aided in the activities of the kidneys as combined with the upper - or the liver and the assimilating system.
6. It is well that the evacuation of the colon be kept in a condition where there is no effect of greater toxic forces through absorption in same.
7. This will also remove the inclinations for pressures from that in the left portion of same where the indications have been for some reaction to the upper circulation.
8. With the rest we would keep much in the manner as has been indicated.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) Are the osteopathic manipulations applied properly? (A) As indicated, these are very good; and are in keeping with that as has been indicated. The only suggestion here would be a little stimulation for the activities as given, to the lower hepatic circulation.
11. (Q) Is the heart condition organic or functional? (A) As we find, it is functional rather than organic; though the stresses through the physical reactions - as well as the mental or emotional - have made for that inclination for an engorging of those areas between the heart proper AND

the liver circulation. Hence that stimulation as indicated for the lower hepatic, so as to relieve not only the stress of activity through same but to relieve that tension which has at times existed there, owing to the attempt of the system to be sure - to eliminate used energies that are naturally a portion of the eliminations through those parts of the system, or those channels of the system.
12. (Q) Will the treatment as outlined take care of the muscular unbalance of the eyes or should special work be given for this? (A) The general stimulation as we find should bring near to a normal condition for the circulation. Owing to the stress or pressures as indicated in the upper portion of the dorsal and naturally the reflex through the upper part of the pneumogastric (or now called the vagus centers), these should make for such an improvement as to make - with the general health - a better circulation, and thus an improvement to the optic circulation.
13. (Q) What method should be used for the eliminations? (A) As we have given, the eliminations are better created by the eliminating of the pressure in the colon - or by the high colonic irrigation. Then when these poisons are eliminated, or when this is used - there should be used in such a colonic, of course, a saline and soda solution; so there is not irritation made to the mucous membranes of the colon. Such a colonic should only be given sufficiently often to prevent accumulations, or to keep a normal activity through same. This does not necessitate the attempting to drain, as it were, those portions across the colon area or to the caecum centers. But the stimulating osteopathically those areas, WITH the removal of the pressure in the transverse and a part of the descending colon, should be sufficient to keep the eliminations near to normal activity. In the matter of the diet and the manner of the natural activities of the body, these should be such as to keep the normal eliminations. When there is the necessity of the laxatives or cathartics, do not use those of the severe nature but rather the

vegetable compounds than the minerals, for this body. For the natural inclinations of the body are to be sensitive, supersensitive to vibratory forces. Hence the milder natures of the vegetable compounds, as in those properties having senna as the base - or such nature, may be used. These as we find are the preferable.
14. (Q) When will be the time to return to art school? [See 338-4.] (A) When the strength is sufficient for the body to feel the inclination for creative activity from the reflexes of the imaginative system; that is, there are naturally those influences in the activity of the body when the impulses arise for activity in creative forces as related to that portion of the whole program or activity of the body in relation to the art. Hence this will come gradually. Do not overtax self but let this become a part of the self, as it naturally is, in that it supplies an outlet for the mental as well as the physical self.
15. (Q) Did the dream in which I met the personality of death have significance concerning the psychic body or physical body? (A) Both. In this we see the indications of the psychic or soul self being able to conquer through that being builded within self the abilities to carry on or to accomplish. Not giving up, not becoming excited, not becoming overanxious; other than knowing that the strength of the divine remains with those that seek to know and do the biddings. The physical activity was meeting the physical activities of same. Hence the body has that promise, as it were, in self, of the opportunities to carry on. Hold fast to those things that have been indicated in that for the meditations and the prayer in self. As these again we would give, in thine own self, in thine own purpose, in thine own words, in thine own way put these thoughts when ye meditate: FATHER, GOD, MAKER OF THE HEAVENS AND EARTH! THY SERVANT, THY CHILD, SEEKS GRACE, MERCY, PEACE, HARMONY; THAT I - AS THY CHILD - MAY GIVE TO THOSE I MAY CONTACT DAY BY DAY, A CONCEPT OF THY LOVE TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN. LET MY LIFE BE CREATIVE, AS IS EXEMPLIFIED IN THY SON - MY BROTHER, MY SAVIOR, MY CHRIST!
