1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time with suggestions for further corrective measures, answering the questions, as I ask them. You will also discuss thoroughly the problem of short wave treatments, examining the machine being used at present, and stating whether it is strong enough to penetrate the deposits and dissolve them, and if not, telling what machine will do this, whether the coil type or some other, and what make is best, General Electric or some other. You will outline the treatments as to how often they should be given, whether they can be given to the ankles, the right knee and the hips, in addition to the left knee, and how long each treatment should last. You will give instructions for Dr. Lewis Heaps about making adjustments and manipulations of the different joints, and give any instructions for preparations other than an additional injection of cobra venom the day before. You will outline the schedule for short wave treatments thoroughly, so that it will co-ordinate with the massages and treatments for the upper part of the body. You will answer the questions which may be asked:
2. EC: Pretty rough wind this evening! Yes, we have the body here, [849] this we have had before.
3. While changes are taking place in the general manner, these are really improved in the present. So long as there is being kept the correct attitude and the body-mind is being improved, through being set in order towards a greater constructive activity, the body will continue to improve. It is when there are negative thoughts, "don't cares", "well I want my way and this is best", that there comes the creating of conditions.
4. The congestions that have been a part of the experience in the present become active, as it were, to set up their own little organizations within various portions or
849-75 Page 2
membranes or activities of the body.
5. To be sure there is much yet to be accomplished. The joints in knee, ankle, feet, portions of the left hip and of the right hip, with those conditions under the shoulders and in the neck are to be broken up. These in the shoulders and neck are on the improve with the applications of the Glyco-Thymoline, which have been very well used.
6. As for the use of the other things that have been suggested, it is well when the deep manipulations or corrective measures are given that larger portions of the venom be taken - that the pain may not become too severe for the body.
7. In using the electrical forces to break the congestions in ankle, knee, hip and shoulders, it is well that these be not too strong; else we will have more being distributed through the circulation than can be well taken care of, and we may then have more inflammation and corruption coming through the nasal passages and the antrum, even the mastoid areas, than can be taken care of, and thus causing undue pressures in those areas.
8. The present type of this electrical short wave is sufficient in strength, provided the electrical driven vibrator is used with the suction as well as the knob applicator on same. This is not a character of treatment, though, that is to be hurried through with, either by the hand manipulation or by the mechanical manipulation. It would be well that the oil massages be used between the mechanical and the hand massage in breaking these up. At every period when the massage is given use the short wave as well as the electrical driven vibrator. Use on knee, ankle and foot. Don't undertake to break up so much at once that this will clog or choke the eliminations.
9. Keep up all the rest of the applications that have been indicated, even the use of the Epsom Salts Packs - these should be heavy over these areas and should be kept on the knee. For the heat, as well as the electrical forces, will aid in dissolving and breaking up by radiation as well as by absorption and by the breaking through of the conditions one with another.
10. Do that.
11. The Wet Cell Appliance with the various properties should be kept regularly, for these vibrations will add to the body conditions that will aid in strengthening when it may not be gotten in any other direction.
12. Ready then for questions.
13. (Q) Should Glyco-Thymoline Packs be given also to the lumbar area, along with the other packs?
849-75 Page 3
(A) This would be very well. Don't have it over the kidneys exactly but between the kidneys and the lower lumbars.
14. (Q) Is the massage to the upper part of the body and the lumbar area being given correctly now? (A) This is very good.
15. (Q) The KalDak seems to disagree with the body. How can it best be taken? (A) Take it with the fruit juices - orange juice or a combination of juices.
16. (Q) Please explain the vitamin content of gelatin. There is no reference to vitamin content on the package. (A) It isn't the vitamin content but it is ability to work with the activities of the glands, causing the glands to take from that absorbed or digested the vitamins that would not be active if there is not sufficient gelatin in the body. See, there may be mixed with any chemical that which makes the rest of the system susceptible or able to call from the system that needed. It becomes then, as it were, "sensitive" to conditions. Without it there is not that sensitivity.
17. (Q) Dr. Heaps wishes to know whether the Ertron treatment will be of use either now or later - this is the high dosage of Vitamin D in units of 50,000. (A) Not yet. This may be later, not yet. This would be trying to destroy things that are not to be destroyed until the system is in such a shape as to be able to take care of them.
18. (Q) Is the body getting rid of the poisons discharged into the bloodstream as well as can be expected? (A) As indicated, it is getting rid of some, but when there is the ruffling of your disposition when there is any anger, it prepares the system so that it blocks the flow of the circulation to the eliminating channels. Thus you can take a bad cold from getting mad. You can get a bad cold from [cursing] blessing out someone else, even if it is your wife.
19. (Q) Is the condition of the body such that the entity can adopt and hold to the mental attitude that no matter how lethargic or dull or weak or painful he feels he is none the less continually getting better? (A) Depends upon just those things indicated. One can get so in the habit of just being cross until he alone doesn't think there's anything wrong - everyone else knows there is.
20. (Q) Is it correct to hold walking in abeyance until some of the changes that are taking place have been completed? (A) Better walk - just as much as possible, even though at
849-75 Page 4
times it gives a great deal of pain, do keep on trying to get the consciousness in the locomotories that it wants to work and not want to be just satisfied.
