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:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2153].
3. Now as we find, there are periods when the conditions show improvements. Then there are periods when there is the inclination for the system to lapse again into greater and, at times, more violent convulsions - apparently.
4. However, these even in themselves indicate progress is being made.
5. As we have indicated oft, there needs to be created in those about the body, as well as in the body itself, the attitude more and more of creative helpfulness - in their relationships one to another as well as those to and with whom the individual entities are related in daily activity.
6. This is that attitude necessary to be created in the MIND, you see, and expressed in the actions.
7. Then as for those conditions of the physical nature, - that are the RESULT of the physical as well as mental attitudes that have been brought over, as well as conditions physically existent in the present:
8. We would not go back to the dependency too much upon sedatives. For, with these we are destroying the will - and the ability of the spiritual and mental forces to resist, or to meet itself, so as to make the proper correction.
9. We would continue every two weeks with having a week of the Castor Oil Packs again.
10. Also we would continue with the attempts, osteopathically, to break up those adhesions and lesions through the area from the liver to the caecum; as well as to make a more perfect coordination in the area from the lumbar, sacral and ileum plexus and the lumbar axis, even to the 1st and 2nd cervical area.
11. These treatments we would have not continuously, but have a rest period of one to two weeks from them, then have the same length of time for these mechanical (osteopathic)

adjustments and stimulations to be made.
12. Then keep that prayerful mental and physical attitude as we have indicated.
13. Do that.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Should all other treatments be continued? (A) All others so far as the diets are concerned and those of a general nature, yes.
16. We are through with this Reading. Copy to Mr. [2345] " " Ass'n file (4/7/41 GD's note: See extra sheet [which was enclosed] of directions for Dr. Thomas.)
