Time of Reading 3:40 to 3:55 P.M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Alabama. (Body and enquiring mind, who seeks information, advice and guidance as to the proper application and expansion of his mental and material endeavors. Questions.)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [641], present in this room.
2. First, as we find, in the physical forces of the body there need to be precautions taken as to inflammations that arise in throat and head and through the antrum and facial soft tissues. There is the poor circulation from a pressure that exists in the 3rd and 4th cervical. This needs not only the corrections but LOCAL applications for the relief of these conditions; that will relieve the tension experienced at times by the body, especially of mornings when there is a heavy dullness through portions of the body, and especially in the head - as of dull, not headaches but heaviness.
3. We would first make or have at least three to five corrections made in the upper dorsal and throughout the cervical area.
4. Also we would use as a local antiseptic, mornings and evenings, a solution in spray - prepared as follows:
5. To 1 ounce of grain alcohol (regular pharmaceutical use), add: Oil of Eucalyptus................10 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp.............3 minims, Benzosol in solution..............5 minims, Tincture of Benzoin...............5 minims, Tolu in solution.................20 minims. As this is used in a spray, add twice the quantity of water to same; that is, to a teaspoonful of the above add two teaspoonsful of water. Use in a spray. This will relieve the pressures, provided the corrections are made also.
6. (Q) How should the corrections be made in the upper
641-3 Page 2
dorsal and cervical? (A) As indicated, there are those pressures in the 3rd and 4th cervical that have been produced by first a little cold, then congestion; and this not being removed caused a poor circulation through head and face and produces a taxation in the soft tissue - antrum and nasal passages, producing even swelling at times in the connections between head and throat, in the back portion of same. The corrections should be done either in an osteopathic manner or by using the head and neck exercises and setting-up activities that would require LONGER, but would be as efficient. Three to six adjustments osteopathically would make the correction. Necessary that the local applications, as indicated, be made also. Do that.
7. (Q) Any other treatment necessary for the physical? (A) As we find, with these corrections, with the relieving of the strain - from the drippings in the throat, the other portions will be corrected. Disturbances in the digestive forces are created by the amount of acidity produced by the poisons that loose themselves in dripping, in draining into the alimentary canal, rather than being eliminated through their regular channels. Do these and, as we find, the greater condition will be removed. As to the application of self in the mental and material associations, as we have indicated, there are those periods of preparation and then those of application - in the experience of each individual entity in the material world. In the present associations and environs there are the periods of preparation; and these surroundings and environs are as yet - have been and are - for the making of the stabilization in the activities of the body in its future relationships with the commercial and active associations. So, as we find in the present - and until the latter portion of the coming year, the entity should remain much as in the present; save making those associations and connections in those fields of activity that we have indicated for the body - making, as it were, those connections for the specific presentation in the various fields of activity of those particular lines of endeavor in which the body may find the
641-3 Page 3
better of the greater associations.
8. (Q) Considering my business experience and previous development, in just what line of work could I use may abilities to the best advantage? (A) As indicated, in that line associated with cloths or things that have to do with wearing apparel.
9. (Q) Should I remain in my present line of work or make a change? (A) As indicated, the present line will make for not only the associations for the preparation of the body but will enable the body to USE those contacts in that particular field of activity or endeavor, you see; as in the advertising, as in the presentation, as in the sale, as in the activity of all such. Work or USE the present surroundings for the development of that particular field of activity; making the change in that period indicated - for, as we find, these present associations should lead TO that. See?
10. (Q) Since my Life Reading indicted special abilities in regard to wearing apparel, would this still be the best line of work for me? (A) As has still been indicated, the present activities should be used in acquainting self with the needs, the necessities, the requirements in that particular field; and as the time and the offer presents itself, then the change.
11. (Q) In just what capacity in that line of work? (A) Salesman on a road!
12. (Q) Any particular firm or clothing establishment that I should seek connection with? (A) As indicated, let the present associations lead to such fields of activity - in their local and in their national advertising, their national activities, see?
13. (Q) Is there any other advice for my better welfare? (A) As indicated from that which has been presented, as to the way in which the entity has developed, keep close to those ideals that have been indicated should be the guiding factors and forces in the entity's endeavors; and making or self the ideal in the spiritual relationships - that the mental, the moral, the physical forces may be builded in a well-rounded body-mind and physical forces, will be such as to bring for the body the greater developments in the present experience.
14. (Q) In what capacity could I better further the work of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.? (A) By presenting to others that THOU, thyself, has found in thine own experience to be worth while. [See 641-3, Reports.]
15. We are through for the present.

[Immediately following the rdg. [641] said the conditions and feelings in head and throat were described perfectly. He did not fully understand parts of the reading, but after a discussion of it he seemed to understand it better. He was pleased that the rdg. saw and recognized his physical condition, even though he had planned on getting the vocational advice solely.] Copy to Self " " Ass'n file
