1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [1467], present in this room, together with his present physical condition, his present employment, the present world conditions, the collection of his back pay from ... Grocery Co., the clarifying of the investigation made by those who were previously suggested through this source; the buying of a home or plot of land; my wife, [263], and how I may be of help to her mentally, physically and spiritually. You will go into these thoroughly and give definite and specific information, counsel and advice that may be easily understood by the body; answering the questions that will be asked:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1467]; this we have had before.

3. That being sought is much to be contemplated at one time, and yet all of these are in a manner dependent one upon the other. And the correlating of the activities in relationships to both of these depends, then, upon choices made by the body-mind itself.

4. These, then, are the choices - that being builded in the purpose prompted by that influence of spiritual forces as would be the directing of the life forces in the entity and its relationships to others.

5. As in the physical - we find these in the main rather satisfactory. To be sure, as there have been and are tendencies in the body-forces - realize, then, that the organs of the body have their cycle of change, as well as the supplying of the physical manifestation of a mental attitude, prompted by the spiritual purposes. These change influences in the body, as growth comes; as indicated in that injunction, "Ye grow in grace, in knowledge, in understanding."

6. The labors heretofore, as indicated, caused some of these physical tendencies. It will be necessary, then, to occasionally have a full, complete adjustment

osteopathically given. This may be once a week, two to three times a month, or if circumstances or conditions bring about a feeling of depletion it may be oftener than this.

7. For, as is understood by the meaning of osteopathic treatments - these are not what might be termed curative forces; they are those applications that RELEASE energies that are in the body-forces. And the natural tendency is for each organ, each cellular force, to do its proper activity towards the correlating of the whole. Thus it is as much of a preventative application or treatment as it is curative.

8. Just as there have been and will be found still in the present relationships or activities, those tendencies for a lack of proper correlating activity of the thyroid of the body. Thus occasionally do take the Atomidine. This does not mean setting a period in each month in which it would be taken five days, nor any specific period, but do take it occasionally. And we will find it will aid in making for better activity throughout the body - as related to the scalp, to the skin, to the growth of bettered conditions through the body.

9. Even with the trouble with the finger, it will be found that the application of Atomidine IN the body and TO the body is beneficial, for these are the activities within the body that aid in purifying glands, thus acting much in the same manner as releasing by manipulative forces a pressure where congestion may be caused. [7/8/66 He reported that last fall he had suffered with arthritis in his lower back, being immobilized for 2-3 months. He remembered about the Atomidine and began taking it, watching his diet, and the arthritis started getting better and he was now entirely free of it.]

10. They each, then, are beneficial.

11. As to the relationships with others, we find that the change in the occupation is very good. That it in the present is not altogether satisfactory in the mind is VERY GOOD for the body. For, he that once becomes satisfied doesn't grow. For being satisfied is the beginning of there becoming deteriorating influences in the experience.

12. In the present environ or channel, we find that the associations or relations connected with same are to be used, not abused but used, in attaining those channels of activity in which there will be the activities more in keeping with those things indicated, that will be beneficial to the body in preparing itself for those activities when the unpleasantness between nations has come to an end. And

1467-17 Page 3

this as we find is not too far distant, either!

13. Hence we would change, or ask for, and be gradually changed to, that more in keeping with that indicated, - sheet metal, rather than in the aluminum. For, this is not the best environ for the health of this body or of others - unless there are greater precautions taken from inhaling the filings or the grindings of same.

14. So, through the relationships with others, make those connections that will be more in keeping with that indicated.

15. In relationship to the purchase of lands, or homes, or lot - it will be much easier to contract or to begin such now than it will be when these changes come about. For, lands will be higher then than they are in the present.

16. As indicated, either the selecting of a site for a home or the beginning or the investment in something that will be in the way of assisting to pay for itself. Both of these may be begun in the present if it is desirable.

17. To be sure, it may cause for self - as well as for wife or companion - the making of sacrifices. But unless you are willing to sacrifice, it wouldn't be worth very much when you had it after all! In fact, it would prove to be just about the least thing that you would want.

18. And this applies in relationship to the wife, [263], as well.

19. As to the better means or manners to help the wife, [263]:

20. Coordinate purposes and desires. These are in keeping with thy ideals. Thy ideals are well. These ye choose within thine own self. As to ways and means, these had best be chosen by self. For, who may tell a rose when to bloom or the dogfennel when to stink? These must come of their own bruising or their own desire to manifest the glory of their Maker. And that should be the basis of the relationship that you each should bear; that each as a helpmeet to the other may live in such ways as to be to the honor of self, which is to the glory of God.

21. Ready for questions.

22. (Q) What is cause and cure for my hair falling out? (A) Some people had rather have brains than hair! These as we find, though - as indicated, there is a lack of proper glandular activity. Take the Atomidine, then, AND the manipulation - and a massage occasionally. And these will bring the best condition. Know that real purposes at times do cause baldness. Don't be anxious about it, but do the right things - and that which is best will be.

23. (Q) How much Atomidine should I take at a time?

1467-17 Page 4

(A) As indicated, the better manner is to take it regularly for some three to four to five days, but don't set it at special times. When it is going to be taken, though, take it for five days at a time; one to two drops in half a glass of water before the morning meal.

24. (Q) Should I continue to use Ipsab for my gums? (A) We would.

25. (Q) Should I continue to take Calcios for my finger nails? [See 1467-13, Par. 7-A.] (A) This is beneficial, as will be the Atomidine. And, as we find, we would get the Purity Cross Vitamin Tablets. Take these about twice a week, not once a day nor five times a week, but about twice or three times a week. Just one a day.

26. (Q) Is there anything I can do that will be of help to my right index finger? (A) As indicated, taking the Atomidine and the massage with same occasionally, rubbing the finger itself with the Atomidine. [See 1467-17, Par. R5.]

27. (Q) Are my kidneys affected? Why do they act so often through the night? (A) It is the poisons being eliminated, of that which has been assimilated from too much turp in the body; and why the warning is given respecting the filings or the dust of aluminum. These are hard on kidneys. Change to that, then, of the sheet metal.

28. (Q) Can my brother-in-law, [...], Chief Inspector at Naval Base, be of any help to me in getting located in this work? (A) As indicated - this is the relationship referred to.

29. (Q) If it would be better to get transferred to another shop, please give number of building and shop. (A) This should be handled through the brother-in-law, as indicated; and these are just certain shops that come under his activity, see?

30. (Q) Should I still try to collect the overtime owed me by ... Grocery Co., or forget all about it? (A) As indicated, we would try - but we wouldn't spend money on it, because you will be sending good money after that that's already almost beyond recall. It hasn't been decided that it WON'T be adjusted yet, so keep it open - for the time being.

31. (Q) Please give me any mental and spiritual advice that will help me at this time. (A) None better can be given that that which has been indicated for the body. At times analyze yourself, become acquainted with the [1467] that other people know. Other

1467-17 Page 5

people do not see you as you see yourself, unless you have analyzed yourself and your purposes. Know, as given, thy ideal. This thus far, as given, has been well chosen. Then act like it.
