1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [942].
2. Now, as we find, the conditions mentally, physically, are such that - unless there are precautions taken and some decided stands taken by the body - the conditions must gradually grow and become very disturbing in many respects to this body.
3. While in the present the conditions affect mostly the temperament of the body and cause such nervous reactions as to upset the whole of the functionings at times of the organism, unless changes and very radical changes or reactions come about, these must become more and more disturbing.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [942] we are speaking of:
5. First, in the BLOOD SUPPLY HINDRANCES are indicated in the circulation, as well as in the manner in which eliminations are carried on THROUGHOUT the entire system. And there is poor coordination IN the eliminating systems, so that at times that which should be eliminated through alimentary canal is disturbing to the kidney; that which should be eliminated through the kidney and the activities of same becomes reabsorbed. Thus there is caused not only the form of toxemia that arises from too much of the urea in the system itself, but the respiratory system is affected, disturbing the whole of the coordination between the vegetative or sympathetic nervous system and the organs of the body, as well as the activity of the coordination between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nerve system in portions of the body.
6. The blood supply, then, is at times very much disturbed by the amount of toxic forces as carried in same; leaving in many of the organs excess to be eliminated through their various absorptions or the various activities. The
942-1 Page 2
digestive forces become disturbed, also the mental reactions; so that the body becomes very much disturbed at any little distressing condition that may arise, at times. However, at other times those that should apparently worry or disturb the body DO NOT react in the same manner; making for those periods when the body weeps or is distressed, melancholia and the like. These must react to portions of the system unless the corrections are made for same.
7. As to the causes of these, as we find, there has been the adherence to those things that were used as preventatives; and they have taken hold upon the NERVOUS FORCES of the body and disturb same. While they are not used in the present, they have also caused the upsetting between the sympathetic or vegetative forces and the cerebrospinal, especially as they react through the adrenal and the glands to the medulla oblongata, or those that go to the pituitary reactions. Hence these make for this character of disturbance. Many portions of the body, of course, suffer in a form of anemia, while others - as it were - tend to run rather to an excess - and make for a swelling or a filling up in portions of the body as to cause disturbing forces.
8. Then, as we would find, in making for that which would be the more helpful to the body:
9. No form of narcotic, hypnotic or sedative should be taken that will be other than assimilated from the diet; only those stimulations that may be added to the system for the making of activity in the pineal centers, where they react from the brush end of the cerebrospinal system and through the activities of the glands in the reproductory forces and those in the adrenal and those connecting same with the ducts about the lacteals. For here we have, about the lacteals, a DRYING condition. Hence this heaviness that we have in the right side and down to the caecum and through the ileum reaction. These recur at times.
10. First, then, we would begin with the use of very small quantities of Chloride of Gold and of Soda, prepared in two solutions in this manner and kept separate:
11. Add one grain of Chloride of Gold to one ounce of distilled water.
12. Add five grains of Bicarbonate of Soda to one ounce of distilled water.
13. Each day twice, once before the morning meal and once before retiring in the evening, take one minim of the Gold solution and two minims of the Soda solution in half a glass of water.
14. Also use the Radio-Active Appliance, making the attachments to the 1st and 2nd cervical and over the lacteal
942-1 Page 3
duct center - or a hand's breadth or just below the gall duct area; ALWAYS attaching the first smaller anode to the plexus or center between the 1st and 2nd cervical, then the little larger plate attached last over the lacteal duct center.
15. It is better to recline of lie down when this is applied. Preferable take it just before retiring. This will make for the coordination of the circulation, as well as those properties from the Gold and Soda working upon the eliminations of the body.
16. Use the high enemas at least once or twice a week to eliminate the fecal forces that have been an accumulation through the colon itself.
17. Be very mindful of the diet. This would be as an outline, though this does not mean these are the ONLY things the body may eat:
18. Mornings - citrus fruit juices. Coffee or ten may be taken in moderation, or Sanka coffee or those compounds with the toxic forces removed; such as Kaffa Hag and the like. Do not OVER use cream or milk in the coffee taken, for it forms that which is detrimental to the gastric flow of the stomach itself.
19. Noons - use preferably only RAW fruits OR vegetables, or these combined. Let quantities of grapes be taken, and pears especially. These are the NEEDED elements in these combinations. Preferably the white grape of the purple, near white, are the characters to be taken. Quantities of these in the middle of the day or the noon meal, or raw vegetables; as lettuce, celery, tomatoes, carrots, beets, spinach, onions, radishes, and all of these natures may be taken. But use more often the grape and the pear. Of course, pineapple, grapefruit, oranges may be included, but preferably more of the grape and the pear.
20. Peaches a little later may be taken, but not those that are gathered for many days before they are eaten.
21. Evenings - a well-balanced vegetable diet; preferably those vegetables that grow above the ground, well-cooked. Hence lentils, greens, red cabbage especially, the egg plant, squash (and preferably the yellow neck rather than the white squash). All of these may and should be taken in QUANTITIES, as much as may be had by the body. Not great quantities of meat, and never any hog meat of ANY kind for this body; not even bacon is well for this body, under the existent conditions.
22. As to milk, preferably use NOT the raw milk. Use either the dried, the sterilized or the malted. These are the better for this particular body at this time, in its
942-1 Page 4
replenishing and rebuilding.
23. Be well that once or twice a week we have an oil rub, not only along the cerebrospinal system but over the centers especially of the locomotories in the caecum, the sacral, the lower end of the spine and to the extremities; rubbing AWAY FROM the body at ALL times. At least once a week use this. A compound for the massaging would be prepared as follows:
24. To 4 ounces of Olive Oil as the base, add in these proportions: Russian White Oil.......................1 ounce, Witchhazel..............................2 ounces, Kerosene Oil............................1 ounce, Oil of Cedar Wood.....................1/2 ounce, Compound Tincture of Benzoin..........1/2 ounce, Oil of Sassafras......................1/4 ounce.
25. These, to be sure, in solution will separate. But when ready to use, shake well together and pour a small quantity in an open container. Along the cerebrospinal system massage in a circular motion, along either side of the spinal column itself; circular motion over the lumbar, lower lumbar and sacral plexus, as through the caecum and through the groin also - this in the frontal portion. Then over the brachial center the same, over the upper cervicals where the Radio-Active Appliance plate is attached circle the same. Also on the limbs and the torso, but would be AWAY FROM the central portion of the body to the extremities.
26. Do these. Keep away from those things that form toxic forces. No form of fermented juices should be taken; not even grape juice is well, unless it is mixed with ginger ale or half and half of the carbonated water and the plain water. No wines. No strong drinks for this body. Ice cream may be taken in moderation, of the ices of fruit sherbet or the like.
27. Do this and we will find we will bring the better conditions for this body.
28. Ready for questions.
29. (Q) Why do I feel fine some days, and miserable at others? (A) Just as indicated, the general reactions. Keep free of those things harmful, and build on those that will make for the replenishing and for the coordination between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal system. Thus we will remove the disturbing conditions. The coordination may be built by the Gold and Soda solutions; be persistent in those, not overdosing, but don't take it a few days and then leave off. Take it for at least thirty to sixty days.
30. We are through for the present.
