Time of Reading 3:40 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Illinois. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2155]. Now, as we find, in many respects the conditions that have been and are disturbing in the physical forces of the body are improved. We find those repressions that make for the disturbing of the mental and physical coordination in the equilibrium of the body show some improvement. There is greater mental reaction towards normalcy. Not that the body is near normal, or that the disturbing factors have been entirely eliminated, or even quieted, but the general attitude, the general aptitude of the body is bettered.
2. We would keep those applications that are being made for the body, in the magnetic forces and also the vibrations from the Radio-Active Appliance. Also we would keep those attempts at quietness, perseverance, consistency, in the activities of others, as well as trying to arouse the same within the active forces of the body.
3. There are those impactions in the caecum, and the area of the appendicial region, that form those reactions which make pressures - also with the lyden and genitive glands in the system. It would be most helpful to keep rather that tendency for a full, complete reaction of the alimentary canal in its eliminations.
4. These others we would keep in the manner that has been outlined.
5. Do not give up. Do not lose patience with self, nor with the activities of the body itself.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) What lies behind the impulse to break glass, only to have this followed by a restlessness for having it repaired? (A) The subconscious forces that tend to make for activities through impulses carried over from other experiences. These are hardships upon others, yet are of that nature that shows - if these can be, will be, turned into CONSTRUCTIVE intents and purpose, through patience,

persistence - these will make for that enabling the healing to be brought for the disorders in system.
8. (Q) What advice does the Intelligence of Undifferentiated Spirit give in order that the normal may be established? (A) As given, keep that which has been outlined. The vibrations in system created by the action of the magnetic forces on the system, in the manner outlined - as well as keeping the alimentary canal more active in this particular area. As we find, one of the best things that may be used for this particular condition is that found in the formula called Castoria, which carries the least of the habit-forming and more of the principles that work with a general system. When given, give very small quantities often. Half a teaspoonful given every half an hour is better than the whole of a half ounce, or ounce, given in two to three doses.
9. (Q) Is placing him back into the institution advisable or not? (State Hospital at Bartonville, Ill., about ... miles from home) (A) These conditions in the surroundings, to be sure, work many hardships upon those who are to deal with the situations as they arise. We would at least not alter, in the present, in the attempt to bring about those corrections that will be PERMANENT to the whole of the ENTITY'S being; for while in the institution care and attention of an unusual nature is given, these conditions CANNOT be met as well there as by those who are responsible for the advent of the entity into this experience. Be patient. Be kind. Be long suffering. Faint not in well doing, for with every trial and tribulation there is also prepared a way of escape. In Him IS life, light, and understanding. Be faithful to the trust that has been put into thine keeping; not as a burden, but that self and self's abilities are spent in redeeming a soul from that environ of itself's own undoing, that will make for the resuscitation of life in a way and manner that will not only bring joy, happiness, harmony, peace to the body itself, but to those that overcome.
10. (Q) What can we do to perfect ourselves against the inharmony, worry and confusion that exists usually under these conditions? (A) Trust more and more in HIS love, His power, that is manifest in thine ministry through HIM to KNOW the way that He would have thee go.
11. We are through for the present. Copy to Dr. [539]
