1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for corrective measures; go over the body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body and those vibrations, as well as those activities about the body.
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions - physical or pathological, as well as psychological.
4. Individuals can become too zealous or too active without consideration of the physical, mental and spiritual. True, all influences are first spiritual; but the mind is the builder and the body is the result. Spiritualizing the body without the mind being wholly spiritualized may bring such results as we find indicated here, so as to raise even the kundaline forces in the body without their giving full expression.
5. The lack of elements is causing such disturbances in this body. Not that there is a condemnation of the purposes or ideals of this entity; yet these are not wholly in keeping with that which will bring the better elements for a coordinated physical, mental and spiritual expression of this entity.
6. These, then, are the sources of disturbances here: etherealizing mentally and the lack of materializing physically in body-forces; from excesses of diets that do not supply the full or complete needs of a body physically active in the vibrations that surround this body.
7. If the body were in other environs, quite different results might be obtained; but the body must choose for itself. For know, as given of old, there is today - now - set before thee good and evil, life and death - choose thou. Think not who will descend from heaven to bring thee a message, nor who would come up from the dead nor from over

the sea; for lo, it is within thine own body, thine own mind, thine own self that the choice must be made.
8. Then, take rather a normal, well balanced diet; not too much in the beginning, but balance the diet. Not quantities of flesh, no; but fish and fowl, yes - these in moderate quantities.
9. Those disturbances in the caecum and appendix area are the effects of too little bulk in the diet, not sufficient protein, not sufficient of those activities that bring a renewing of energy.
10. Not that decaying flesh to the body is not abhorrent, but so balance the diet that the gastric flows of the pylorus and duodenum are such that the proteins are cared for in such manners that the body will gain in energy.
11. Use KalDak as a body-builder; this taken for this body in V-8 juices. Dissolve a level teaspoonful and take twice each day, morning and evening. Stir thoroughly in a small quantity of hot water and then fill the small tumbler - not a large one, but about two and a half to three ounces - with the V-8 juice and drink.
12. These do and take. And keep those periods of meditation. Do prepare the body in the environ for this deep meditation, and there will be brought those abilities that are sought. To be helpful for others, such must first be accomplished in self. Do not ask others to do that ye cannot demonstrate in thine own self. For, God is not mocked, and whatsoever a man or woman soweth, that he or she must also reap.
13. Ready for questions.
14. (Q) What caused extreme dizziness over a period of a month this summer and will it return? (A) It will return unless there is a better balance created in the replenishing or body-building forces active in system; and of such the body can and will assimilate.
15. (Q) What is condition of intestinal tract? (A) As just indicated, the lack of sufficient bulk in same has resulted in gas formations and the tendency for the lactic acids and juices to act one upon the other. Beware! else ye may have a rash that will become very aggravating - in forehead, arms, groin.
16. (Q) Are the pituitary, pineal, thyroid and adrenal glands working? (A) Overworking! under the existent conditions, as indicated; but there is not the proper distribution of these activities through the system, because of the lack of vital energies. Ye are low in red blood cells about three million!

17. (Q) Is the magnetic pad I am using helpful? (A) Momentarily, yes. What is needed is more vigorous activity with a greater stimulation in body-building energies. More calories are also needed.
18. (Q) What is the condition of the female organs? (A) All of these suffer under the disturbances, and the raising of the kundaline forces is causing activities here that are not in keeping with best conditions. Use alkaline douches at least once each week - two tablespoonsful of Glyco-Thymoline to a quart of body-temperature water, in a Fountain Syringe.
19. (Q) Can my vision be improved? (A) By head and neck exercises, provided body-building forces are added.
