1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [369]; this we have had before.
2. Now, as we find, while the conditions are very good in the present in many respects, there are those inclinations, those tendencies that need the correction through the addition to those influences or forces in the bodily functioning such as to prevent disturbances and the disruption of activities through glandular forces in the body.
3. These are the conditions as we find them in the present:
4. Those influences or forces that have in times past been an effective activity in the glandular forces, that were eliminated from their activity in the lung area, [See 369-5 on 4/2/30 mentioning incipient tuberculosis] in the mucus membranes, NOW make for an activity upon the glandular forces. Hence they produce in the ilia-pectus [?] [pacos?], [iliacus - pectineus?], or in those activities of the reproductive glands of the system, abnormalcy in the manner in which their functioning is performing or activative in the present. This produces an irregularity with accompanying disturbances in the organs or the operative forces of the system as related to the ovaries, as the glands and tubes that lead to the functioning of the organs themselves. Thus, as it were, from the lack of activity in their normal functionings, there are the tendencies for these becoming ossified. Not as of losing their reproductivity, nor the natural activity of the flower or effluvia from same, but they are as slow and irregular in their functioning.
5. As these glands function directly with the pineal, the adrenal and the BODILY forces, these make for a greater reaction upon their coordinance with the mental activities and the mental reflexes than ordinarily produced under such conditions. For the natural inclinations, the natural
369-14 Page 2
tendencies of the bodily functions are for their functioning in a more regular order. This has changed, then, not only the metabolism but the katabolism also of the body.
6. These as we find may be aided in the present in such measures and in such a manner as to bring about a NORMAL balance in these directions.
7. Then these would be through the adding of EFFECTIVE activity upon the functioning of the system in measures and manners that will bring the ELIMINATING of these EFFECTS upon the organs themselves that are involved, and thus gradually produce normalcy in their functioning.
8. We would then begin as with these - and these are the effects, for they will in the beginning at first produce an apparent disruption or disturbance that will, unless taken in its proper relationship, become at once or at the periods of the relaxations and the activity of the system - somewhat alarming. But these must be the natural order to produce, as it were, the PROPER eliminations and the proper adjustments for the functioning of the bodily functions.
9. Have prepared, then, as this:
10. To 4 ounces of Pure Honey add 2 ounces of Distilled Water. Let this come to a boil. Skim off the top. Use this syrup as the carrier. After it is skimmed, then add - in the order named: Tincture of Valerian.................1/2 ounce, Elixir of Calisaya...................1/2 ounce, 10% solution Iodide of Potassium......40 minims, 10% solution Bromide of Potassium.....20 minims.
11. Shake this together before the dose is taken, which will be twice a day - morning and evening; morning before any meal is taken, night just before retiring - teaspoonful at the dose. Take this for three weeks. Rest a week, and then finish same.
12. Then begin immediately with the vibrations from the Radio- Active Appliance, but use same through a solution of Chloride of Gold; one grain to one-half ounce of distilled water. Let that anode or that lead that passes through the solution be attached - each time it is applied to the body - to the pubis plexus, or the head of the pubic bone. Attach first to the pubic center, then to the extremity with the other anode - the left wrist; the next day still to the pubic plexus and to the right ankle, and the same around the body. The next day to the right wrist, the next day to the left ankle, see? But each time these are to be used, make the attachment first to the pubic center.
13. Those conditions to be alarmed about:
369-14 Page 3
14. The first period there will be tending to be the unusual amount of eliminations at the menstrual period, see? Soon after this has stopped (not too soon, but a day or two afterward) take a douche of plain water and Atomidine. To a pint of water add a teaspoonful of Atomidine. This is to remove those tendencies for the accumulation of those flush [?] [flesh?] forces from the system by the activity of those properties in the tonic and of the nerve forces, energies that are activated upon by the tonic given, see?
15. Do these. Be mindful that there is plenty of the physical activity. Not of the nature that tends to make for too great a strain upon the body. And we will find that in a few months - three to four - the body should be near normal in all of these directions.
16. Do that. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) How long should the Radio-Active Appliance be used? (A) For an hour each day. Use for periods of one to two weeks, rest a week, and then for two weeks again.
18. (Q) After I have finished this prescription, should I have it refilled - or is just one quantity enough? (A) Rather would there be the information given through these channels upon the effect created in the body by the use of these. These may be necessary for alterations, but these as we find should be not more than two quantities if there is the proper reaction.
19. (Q) Is the trouble I have been having for the last year premature change of life (as the doctors say)? (A) Rather as has been indicated. It may lead to that if there is not the proper reaction produced in the system by the functioning of those glands as we have indicated that are disturbed. It is more a tendency towards ossification in activity, NOT in the gland, see?
20. (Q) Will this prevent me from marriage and children as I have planned? (A) If the corrections are made, these should rather assist - than preventing activities in those directions. The addition to the system of that which will make a coordination is necessary. There once was given (through these sources) that there should be a certain period, a certain age reached before there was the attempt for the reproductive forces from the body not to be affected by that of weakness or lack of the proper number of the hormones as in the productive forces of
369-14 Page 4
the body, see? [See her Life reading 369-3, Par. 12, on 11/3/27.] This then was that there should be the Creative Forces in the activative forces that would make for a balancing of a condition. That these have become localized then, or centralized into the very influences or forces as referred to, is from those CONDITIONS arising from the influences upon the imaginative system, the active forces to the influences in those directions. Now the addition in the present to the influences for the relief of those conditions that are becoming localized, then would make for a production in the body of the influences for the removal of the localization and the bringing about of normalcy in reproductive energies in the bodily functions. For, as has been indicated, these were of such natures before that these would have been inefficient. The conception could not have been of a perfect nature, producing rather a stillbirth or the effects upon the foetus [fetus] that would have made malformations. Now, these produced in a NORMAL manner, NORMAL number, may make for a condition where vegetative forces may be brought about in such manners as to produce PERFECT conception with the proper balance in its whole activity. Do these, and we will find we will bring not only relief but a revivifying, a rejuvenating, a rebuilding. However, we will have periods in the first two or three months when anxiety may be expected because of the irregularity or the continuance of the menstrual flow, then periods when there will be only a few days. But these will be acted upon by a warm, not a hot, not a cold douche, with the properties indicated. Not more than one douche should be necessary. But if these continue for periods, then two or three days may elapse before another douche may be taken. Take this only from Fountain Douche, not from a spiral, not as from a force.
21. (Q) Do you see marriage ahead for me and how soon? (A) These do not come from the same sources. These would be well for the body as the bodily functions come near to normal. For these would bring then not only expectancy but consummation of influences that may be builded in the body-physical.
22. (Q) How should I build mentally to bring about the best? (A) Know that what may be accomplished in the body through
369-14 Page 5
CONSTRUCTIVE thinking, constructive living, constructive relationships, will bring that NECESSARY influence in the experience for the greater mental and spiritual development.
23. (Q) Have I progressed or developed inwardly during the last two years? (A) To a GREAT extent. The whole of the physical, the whole of the mental outlook is of a different concept. Keep constructive thinking, living, acting. Do those things as given and we may find we may bring normalcy for the body functions.
