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, we have the body here, [3220].
3. In giving the interpretation of the disturbance here, other conditions than the pathological effects produced must be taken into consideration - if there would be real help for this body.
4. That which is in the physical disturbing is, ever, the result of breaking a law; either pertaining to the physical, mental, or spiritual.
5. Here we have a misconstruction of some laws pertaining to the physical and mental. Not as of morality alone, but the entity should or must change the general attitude towards conditions about the entity - its hates, its fears; and trust in those promises that have been made.
6. Who healeth all thy disease? Who supplyeth life itself? Trust, then, in those promises. As has been given, "If ye call, I will hear and will answer." Use the abilities, then, of the body and of the mind, in a service to Him.
7. Pathologically we find, from a burn, from chemicals, there has come an irritation to the throat, the larynx and bronchi. Combined with the deteriorating forces in the attitude, there are those areas that continually cause - with the least cold or inflammation - hemorrhage from the throat and the larynx.
8. This is not tubercular as yet in its nature. It is consuming, because of the inability of the properties as yet supplied or applied in the system to produce proper coagulation. And the general reduction of the supply of red blood cellular forces, with the plasm in the hemoglobin itself for the producing of the condition to combat and the
3220-1 Page 2
lack of the number of leukocytes, still makes for greater weaknesses in the body.
9. If there is the change in the general attitude, and the application in a consistent manner of these things we would suggest, we find that there may be brought healing forces for the body; in such measures as to maintain and sustain activities in this physical experience.
10. Have prepared an inhalant in this manner:
11. To six ounces of grain alcohol (Not denatured but grain alcohol, at least 90% proof), add - in the order named: Oil of Eucalyptus..................30 drops, Rectified Oil of Turp..............10 drops, Compound Tincture of Benzoin.......45 drops, Rectified Creosote..................3 drops, Tolu in Solution...................20 drops.
12. Put this in a large mouth bottle, prepared so that there are two vents in the cork, and these vents kept closed when not used.
13. This is to be inhaled, not taken. Shake the solution, and - about four or five times each day, and once or twice during a night - inhale; shaking the solution, removing both small corks, and then inhaling deep into the throat and lungs - once or twice in the beginning. This will be rather severe, yet keep this up.
14. Then, add to the general constitutional conditions of body in the form of diet.
15. At least twice each day take a teaspoonful of beef juice. Sip this, taking at least a minute or minute and a half to swallow the teaspoonful.
16. Have sea foods in the diet often, that there may be the adding of iodine from such foods. Have these two or three times each week.
17. Also add vitamin B-1 complex tablets, these taken preferably when the body is ready to retire.
18. Do not overtax the body. Do not work or labor or be active where there is dust or the like.
19. At least once a week have a gentle massage all along the spine, but especially in the area from the 9th dorsal to the base of the brain, and this on either side of the spine rather than the spine itself; massaging into same Cocoa Butter. This is well if it will be applied. Take the time to do this; not as something to be done and gotten through with any more than the meditation periods - or the promises to self for the correcting of the ideals or ideas pertaining to its moral, mental and spiritual life.
20. Do these, if there would be brought the better
3220-1 Page 3
conditions for this body.
21. Ready for questions.
22. (Q) Why the pain in the chest and back? (A) Read what has just been indicated, and you will see. Do these things, and we should have help for this body.
