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, [3388].

3. As we find, many things must be taken into consideration in giving suggestions for this body. True, there are pathological disturbances. There are conditions that must be met spiritually, there are conditions that must be met mentally - and we may then control the physical manifestations in same. That which has been in the body-mind has aided in keeping the disturbances through the alimentary canal, where there have been first lacerations in stomach and these brought on the catarrhal condition that exists in the nasal passages, which has contributed to the forming of cakes or hard places in the stomach - and a great deal of distress through duodenum as well as through the jejunum.

4. All of these have been a strain and a drain on the system; yet the diet, with the mental and spiritual attitude has helped. Do not disregard these - keep them - they will be worth more to the mind and soul than all the medics that may be applied.

5. Do not have operations. These would mean a renouncing of that which has builded physically, mentally, and spiritually in the body forces. If there is a continuation there may become distressing conditions through the lower portion of alimentary canal, but the greater help may come through the holding of the correct attitude. Not that there should be a denial of the condition existent, but there should be the continual affirming and the relying on, and the realization of the ability and the power of the Christ-Consciousness to

make whole. If this is seen and applied in the life in dealing with others, there may come help; not by bragging, not by boasting, not by denying, but rather by edifying all with whom the body comes in contact, and then living day by day in those things and in those ways that the spirit, or seed of the spirit of truth is manifested.

6. Be patient, be gentle, be kind. Do not find fault with others. Be longsuffering with those who despitefully use you, and you will find that these attitudes will continue to bring greater help to the body - in the present and in the eternal life everlasting.

7. We are through with this reading.
