1. GC: You will answer the questions which I will ask you regarding this body.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body. This we have had before. Some changes - physically and mentally - with this body. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Are there any adhesions, any obstructions, or any dislocation of INTESTINES OR ANY OTHER ORGANS throughout the body at present that would impede the normal functions, and if so, how may they be overcome or their effects minimized? (A) At present we find conditions very good in respect to the location, the position, of the whole alimentary canal, and its relations to the organs and the functioning of same in the body.
Keep that as has been outlined in respect to diet, to stimulants, to activities of the body, and in same bring self to the more perfect functioning throughout. No obstruction as yet present. No adhesion as yet seen. No correction as yet to be made, see?
4. (Q) Do we find any centers of inflammation or infection ANYWHERE sufficient to overload the system with poisons and impair the efficiency of the body? (A) Not at present. We find no overloading of any portion of the system that would impair, or impede, through the inflammation, or as secreting poisons that are improper for distribution in the system. These are in very good condition throughout at present.
5. (Q) Now, to gain a better control of the body, and overcome that disturbance described heretofore as "a lack of coordination in nerve vibrations", what would you do AT PRESENT? (A) Coordinate that of the mental with that of the physical, in this sense and manner:
In recuperation from ills, and ill effects as are created in the system, these conditions are as necessary for the body to build in the system - that is, coordination mentally and physically.
The body has that mental conception of that necessary for

united work, or united efforts on the part of material and of physical organization in a body; whether referring to conditions physical or material. In this application then to self, we find THIS condition existent:
Study within self that as necessary for the perfect coordination of the body-physical with the body-mental, to keep same fit and whole. As implied in those conditions sought to be understood by the entity as respecting physical conditions from within, there is seen implied that known to be necessary for physical conditions to be normal. There is that same element in the mental body - as in the physical - to be kept fit. That is, do not expect to have a mental derangement in the image being created for recuperative forces for the body and expect a perfect physical body; for the mind is the builder, and that as is set as a pattern before the mental forces adds to those portions of the system in their respective units of force created in the body, mentally, physically, spiritually.
Then, to coordinate all these, keep mind aright. Keep the physical aright. Let the mental being keep aright, for these - as given - physically - are set. The mental may be warped - the mental may be turned aside. Do not ask "What is right?" Present thine body the living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto Him, which is but a reasonable service - for, as has been seen and understood by this body-mind, those conditions arising in a physical being come from that of a mis-directed energy of a unit of the whole physical body. The physical being, then, subject to the mental. The mental being related to the spiritual, needs that full cooperation that is necessary for a well-rounded life, that may be used to reflect that gained in this mundane sphere. Apply self! Keep body and mind attuned to that oneness of purpose as is set in Him who gave, "Would ye be in accord with Him, be guided by me."
6. We are through for the present.
