1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions he has submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, these last few days have been rather the cycle of the recurrent disturbances in the general physical forces of this body. A great deal arises, as we have indicated, from the mental attitude of the body. This should be kept more in a constructive manner, in that it is - the entity itself - a part of all that has been and is about the body; and there is needs be the realization that such activities have been and are for the spiritual development for the entity itself.
4. The attitudes, then, should be such that there is NO feeling of resentments - but a forgiving, loving expression towards ALL about the body - in EVERY form and manner.
5. As to those disturbances through the digestive forces, and especially through the prostate glands that have caused such disturbance - if there would be the use of those forms of application in the manner of the hot water through the Elliott Machine, these conditions would disappear.
6. When there is the close adherence to the diets as indicated, and the keeping of the eliminations in the manners as we have so oft outlined, we find that the conditions show improvement.
7. And these as we find in the present we would do.
8. And if there would be each week a Turkish Bath, or oftener - with a full or complete application or use of same - it would be MOST helpful; not so extreme in the steam applications as to weaken the body, but water and fume baths, or the dry heat baths, would be most excellent.
9. And if the body will do these, and keep the mental attitude, and change to those activities as indicated in the use of the Elliott Machine, we would find real help for this body.

10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) What causes weakness in knees, hips and ankles? (A) Accumulations of poisons through the system by the lack of the proper elimination, and the building in the mental attitudes of congested forces throughout the system.
