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, [3504].
3. These as we find are serious disturbances physically.
4. Sources of these are prenatal conditions as well as karmic. These, of course, may be rejected by many. Yet those who reject same do not supply better reasons, do they?
5. Here, as we find, while conditions may appear as hopeless in the present; know there is forgiveness. Even as the body-mind may forgive others, so may the body here be forgiven. So may it seek through those promises of the All-Creative forces for help, yes; help in a physical as well as in a mental manner.
6. Know, indeed, the spirit is willing if ye are in soul and purpose ready to accept the Christ-Consciousness that taketh away sin. And if sin is removed in purpose, in desire, and is replaced by hope, determination and the living of that in the daily life as ye profess such; so may it be unto thee. For He spoke not in vain, neither did those words mean something only to those twelve to whom He spoke at the mount "Whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, believing; ye shall have in the body. What ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in the heaven. What ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Then, to attain one must first believe that He is, and that He is able to keep all promises He hath made to the children of men. For as He gave "Who is my brother, my mother, my sister? He that doeth the will of the Father, the same is my mother, my brother, my sister."
7. That there are pathological conditions is true. These necessitate, then, that preparation be made in the body for the reception of, for the activity of, the divine within the
3504-1 Page 2
body, the mind of this entity.
8. Then, first prepare self in mind, through the spirit of belief, of faith, in the divine as it may act and react in and through the body-physical.
9. Do that first and know there are no shortcuts. Be satisfied, be sure in self that this phase has been accomplished first, whether this requires a month, a year or a day. Do that first till ye have seen, till ye have known that He hath answered thee within thine inner vision.
10. Then apply scraped Irish potato to the eyes. This will remove through absorption the inflammation from the lack of optic reaction, stimulating the optic centers that are becoming atrophied. In the beginning, apply these potato poultices each evening for three days at a time, resting a week between, and then again three days at a time in the evening; putting it on directly to the optic centers, that is, over the eyelid, binding on with a gauze or cloth. Each time remove the poultice when it becomes dry or hard.
11. Then, after three to four weeks of these applications, begin with a gentle massage each evening in the upper dorsals and throughout the cervicals, afterwards stimulating for ten to fifteen minutes with the Violet Ray, (hand machine - bulb applicator) those areas from the lumbar axis to the 5th and 6th dorsal, preferably along each side of the spine.
12. Do these and we will gradually find help for this body. Do the first things first. Do not attempt to take shortcuts.
13. Ready for questions.
14. We are through with this body. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file " " Miss Goodall for indexing
