1. EC: We have the body here, [409] - this we have had before. Now, as we find, general conditions in the physical forces of the body are very good. There has been some recent irritation in the system, caused by cold and congestion, that has brought about irritation to the lumbar and sacral region - and has produced some irritation to those membranes about those portions where there has been the effect of - the action of - scar tissue. This does not arise from any internal infectious force, other than the system's attempting to eliminate or alleviate the conditions through those channels where drosses HAVE been eliminated. Then, don't worry about it! As we would find, just use discretion; keep those properties as outlined for the body at such periods, using the mullein (GREEN, as much as possible), and we will find this will concentrate or draw to a focal point the diffused forces that have been disturbing and do disturb the body.

2. Take the ash in its regular way and manner, and the lights. It would be well were these applied (the light) in the lower lumbar and over the sacral region, more than directly over those portions where the eliminations have been taking place. As the soreness disappears, gradually lower - or, that is, come closer to the places themselves, or the openings where the discharges show, see?

3. Be well, too, that there be a massage of this, using the oil and other properties that have been given for the bringing about of tautness in the muscular forces (which it does) for the system. This aids in eliminating those portions, or that condition produced by cold and congestion.

4. Ready for questions.

5. Don't eat too much meats, especially fats. Don't eat too much of just WHITE bread, but more of the whole wheat bread and the green vegetables - those that keep the eliminations

in a normal way and manner; and we will find these conditions WILL improve! Don't give way to the feelings that "This is all to be gone over again!" It's getting rid of it!

6. When massaging the lower limb, massage toward the hip. When massaging along the spine, massage toward the hip - see? We will concentrate those matters there.

7. Keep the mind as near balanced as possible towards "It's alright, and it's getting alright, and it will be alright!" and it WILL!

8. When there is cold or congestion, best that some mild laxative be taken, rather than allowing the system to get in the habit, as it were, of eliminating such colds through the creating of inflammation in tissue that has been draining poisons from the system. The bone is not affected, as yet. The erasions or erosions in the system do not affect the system. It is the cold and congestion, as indicated, in the muco-membranes. Usually we have a cold and it is blown out the nose! Now you're blowing it out through the limb!

9. We are through for the present.
