Time of Reading 11:40 to 11:55 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. Brooklyn, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, now called [1155].
2. As we find, conditions are rather a complication of disturbances most of which have arisen from rather a specific condition. Yet the effects that have been produced, and combined with applications that have been made, have become at times confusing.
3. These, then, as we find, are the conditions at this time with this body, [1155] we are speaking of:
4. The indications as we find in the BLOOD SUPPLY are that there are toxic forces arising from a condition of the basic nature, or the cause. And there are also those elements in same that make for a reaction to the system by the influences in same not being eliminated, or at times there being an overdisturbance that brings disturbing factors to the locomotory forces of the body itself.
5. These, as we find, then, are not soluble or are not eliminated owing to the poor LYMPH circulation, or at times increasing in same in local conditions in the body.
6. Then, these present an effect as well as the causes that arise from the effect created.
7. In the nervous forces of the body, both the sympathetic or vegetative AND the cerebrospinal systems become involved. As we find, where there has been an adherence of tissue - as in the lacteal duct, through the caecum and through those areas where these disturbances arise from the lack of these eliminations, there are the causes or basic forces for the incoordinations of the activities and the inabilities for the influences to become more effective in the applications that have been administered for the body; thus AFFECTING the body throughout in its incoordinations.
8. In the functioning of the organs themselves, disturbing
1155-1 Page 2
conditions that arise make for the combinations or the complications in the activities of the system. All become involved then at times in the disturbing forces that arise.
9. AS WE FIND, THEN, IN MAKING THOSE APPLICATIONS THAT WOULD BE THE MORE HELPFUL FOR THE BODY IN THE PRESENT:
10. If there will be the relaxing of the body for periods that would overcome the disturbing forces in the lacteals and in the caecum area, where these conditions arise, then we may add those vibratory forces to the body to become the more helpful in the conditions that disturb the body.
11. First, then, we would use the Castor Oil Packs for periods of one or two days at a time, across the liver, the caecum area; that we may relax these portions of the body to such an extent that the absorptions from same will make for a reaction in the lymph flow through these portions of the system.
12. And then, after a period of ten days of using the Packs, we would - for a period of twenty-six days - apply each day the vibrations through the low electrical forces to the lacteal area and the centers in the cerebrospinal system from which the pulsations or the impulses arise, carrying the vibrations from Atomidine - or iodine charged in same to the body itself. Thus, through these vibrations, there may be created a loosening of those portions of the tissue that have been involved that produce this creating of the sedimentary forces that so tax the body in its reactory forces.
13. And we will find then there may be given those further instructions, after the usage of these, that may continue to make for helpful forces for this body, [1155].
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) How long at a time should the Castor Oil Packs be left on? (A) For an hour to an hour and a half.
16. (Q) What causes pain and secretions to form back of right ear only? (A) Owing to the improper coordination between the eliminating systems of the body, because of those conditions in the sympathetic reaction, these make for creations of segregations there. The system set up in the manner in which drainages of the poisons or toxic forces take place, from the used energies or influences not being eliminated, will cause these conditions to disappear. To be sure, keep LOCAL applications - but get to the basis
1155-1 Page 3
or causes of these disturbances that HINDER the correct circulation carrying on its proper function.
17. (Q) What causes pain constant and severe in the head? (A) Reflex conditions from other disturbances in the incoordinating forces of the body-functions through the connections or pressures created in the areas indicated, from which the disturbance arises.
18. (Q) What causes a discharge from the eyes? (A) Sympathetic; and pressures upon the centers from which the circulation in these portions receives its impulse.
19. (Q) Are sedatives harmful? (A) Sedatives become necessary at times, but sedatives to a normal body always are harmful - or their EFFECTS are to be met in other directions. As in this body, if the CAUSES of the hindrances in the circulation are removed, we would find it not necessary for so much to be taken to relieve pain.
20. (Q) Where should the first attachment be made of the electrical appliance? (A) To the 1st and 2nd dorsal, while the one carrying the solution - or where the solution passes - would be over the lacteal and umbilicus center for the activity upon the eliminations and the increasing of the drainages from the upper portions of the body, through the CIRCULATION, through the alimentary canal.
21. (Q) How many applications of the Castor Oil Packs should be used? (A) As indicated, these should be used for two or three days - with a rest period of two or three days, and should be given for the periods covering ten days, so that there is perfect relaxation and a better elimination and an overcoming of the effects of disturbances in the eliminating system.
22. (Q) How can these deficiencies be relieved in the body? (A) When there is set up a normal activity of the body through its assimilating and rebuilding forces, by cleansing those portions where there have been those disturbances, and the body then builds through its natural recuperative forces to that necessary to meet the disturbing forces in the body; replenishing same through the natural forces, see?
23. (Q) Will a definite cure come to the body? (A) This would depend upon how well the balances are created and as to how well the body responds. These as we find applied in the manner as indicated for the first twenty-six to thirty-six days, then there may be given as to how much of a normalcy may be created.
1155-1 Page 4
24. (Q) What organ in the body is involved? (A) Those that effect or build or create the eliminations of the system. Hence we find the condition that CAUSES this is an adherence of tissue in the areas indicated, and thus PRODUCES a disturbance in MANY of the organs - as the liver, the kidneys, the circulation AND the localization in those portions of system affected. Do these, as we have indicated, and - as we find - we will bring the better conditions for this body.
25. We are through for the present. [See 1155-1, Par. R1.] Copy to Mr. [...] [husband], Brooklyn, N.Y.
