Time of Reading 10:50 to 11:20 A. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Mass.
1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, while conditions here are not beyond repair, this must require a great deal of change in the general mental attitude of the body, spiritually and mentally; as well as changes in the physical reactions through the body. And, unless there is the determination in self, as well as those who may be necessary to make the applications for corrections with this body, we would not begin, but rather rely upon the sedatives and those things of such nature that are only tending to clog the system and are not curative forces at all.
4. These then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [3138] we are speaking of:
5. The blood supply indicates a combination of disturbances, as to how the slowed circulation through the body and especially in the lower portion of the body tends to leave toxic forces. These combined with the lack already of glandular secretions to supply nerve plasm in the return flow of nerves through the limbs especially, and the whole of the left side, become contributory conditions to that inability to walk, or the inability to use the locomotor nerves. And when there is the least attempt, apparently the palsied condition arises, as well as the weaknesses in all the muscular forces in the joints of the limbs, so that these tend to work just anyway, or no way at all, no stamina in them at all.
6. These, of course, naturally upset all the rest of the body forces, from this congestion. At times there is poor assimilation and rarely is there very good elimination.
3138-1 Page 2
7. These must all be taken into consideration, if there would be administrations for helpful forces.
8. In the functioning of the organs themselves, functionally we find disturbances. The heart's activity is irregular. This, with the disturbance through the nervous system, or systems, and through the activity of the properties taken upon the organs of the central circulatory system - heart, liver, lungs, kidneys - all tend to show questionable activity through various periods of body functioning.
9. As we find, in making administrations:
10. First, there must be in the spiritual and mental self, the renouncing of any condemnation of others. Never an attitude of blaming others, but knowing within self that the state in which you find yourself is where the Lord would have you work in His vineyard. The very fact that you have life itself, even, is the opportunity for being a witness-bearing child to the King of kings.
11. Speak kindly, speak gently. Be patient. Be not faultfinding, be not condemning of others, nor of anything that may have come to be your lot. Be not a gossiper of activities that would bring any condemnation on others.
12. This in itself will change the whole outlook on the body's condition. Let your prayer be continuously:
13. LORD, USE ME, SUCH AS I AM, IN THY KINGDOM.
14. And mean it, and DO it. When you see, when you speak with others, let them know that you walk closely with Him; not by bragging, but by gentleness and by the wonderfulness of His love and His grace even to you. Let it be known to others.
15. Then to supply the needs of the physical body:
16. Do take each day, at least through the day, a small can of watercress, as it is prepared for usage in salads and the like. Do this daily for at least sixty days. You will find changes will be brought. This is not all that is to be taken, to be sure, but this should be a part of the diet each day. The elements here are to keep down the tendency for the flare in the blood stream of those conditions that produce irritation and weakness.
17. Then have prepared the Wet Cell Appliance carrying Gold to the body. This would be the regular charge. The Gold solution would be in the proportion of one grain Chloride of Gold Sodium to one ounce of Distilled Water, using at least three ounces of the solution. Make the attachments as follows:
18. The large plate through which the Gold solution passes vibratorially would be attached to the umbilical and lacteal duct plexus, or - on this body - four fingers from the navel
3138-1 Page 3
center to the right and two fingers up from that point. The small copper plate would be attached to the ninth dorsal center.
19. Keep these attachment plates very clean, polishing them with the emery paper before and after being used. Disconnect them when not in use, taking the connections out of the solution, keeping them dry, and putting them in the solution about twenty minutes before the attachments are made to the body.
20. Make these attachments each day for thirty minutes.
21. Each day following the use of the appliance massage the whole of the body, especially the lower limbs with Peanut Oil, all the body will absorb. Take the time, take at least thirty minutes in giving this massage, not just tapping it on and rubbing, but dipping the ends of the fingers in the Oil and massaging in a rotary motion around the limbs, around the feet, the toes and heels, the ankles, the calf of the leg, the knee, and on up the thigh, across the abdomen and especially over the sacral and lumbar area. Do not attempt to make adjustments, but massage the properties so they will be absorbed by the body for a stimulation. This will require long, tedious activity and patience. But remember, God's plan is slow, but sure, and He will not suffer those to be tempted beyond that they are able to bear.
22. In the rest of the diet, include daily at least two ounces of Yellow Saffron Tea, putting a pinch of the American Saffron between the thumb and forefinger in a cup and pour boiling water over it, letting it stand for half to three-quarters of an hour. Strain, then cool and drink during the day. Elm would also be well in the water occasionally. All the water that is taken should contain either the Elm or the Yellow Saffron.
23. Not too much of meats of any kind, fish and fowl occasionally, leafy vegetables rather than the bulbous variety, carrots, radishes, onions, celery, lettuce should be a part of one meal each day. Not all but part of the meal, these taken raw; any or all of these as they may be desired from time to time.
24. Do these for the better conditions of the body and help will be brought if there will be kept the correct attitude by the body.
25. Ready for questions.
26. (Q) Should I try to walk even though it pains with the effort, or keep quiet? (A) Not until there has been at least some six or eight weeks of the treatments. With the appliance, change the
3138-1 Page 4
Gold solution every fifteen days. Recharge the appliance every thirty days.
27. (Q) Should I continue the weekly intravenous injection of thiamin chloride, and two intra muscular injections of concentrated liver? (A) For the time being, but as these other applications are made such injections may be gradually left off. Eat liver rather than taking it by injection.
28. (Q) Should I continue taking a sleeping pill at night? (A) For the time being, but leave these off as soon as practical, for these are habit forming.
29. (Q) How may stopping up of nose be helped? (A) With the massaging, we should find these corrections. Do these as given, the spiritual as well as the material. And if these are not decided upon fully and kept, don't begin. For he that looketh back - remember Lot's wife.
