Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern War Time. ..., N.C.
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: As we find, there are disturbances. These are the effects of indiscretions in the body of the parent of this entity, as well as the prenatal or karmic debt of the entity itself, [3603].
3. These may be materially aided. They will not be entirely relieved through mechanical applications alone; that is, from just pathological conditions. For these conditions are also in the mental and soul self, and the greater help will come with these applications being followed while the body is in the care of someone who would give constant spiritual counsel - as a Unity student or Science student - yet these would interfere with the mechanical or pathological conditions to be corrected, for they are very definite. Or one of spiritual or divine science rather than Christian Science who would give the body counsel in its developing era or period of unfoldment of spiritual self, of body emotions, of mental abilities, to correct these relationships and these activities - from the spiritual desire to be clean every whit.
4. Few people have considered that injunction regarding being perfect in the day and generation, or clean every whit. These are body, mind and soul.
5. Pathologically we find there are those adhesions in the lacteal duct area as associated or connected with the pubic centers in this body. These cause, when there is the digestion or when there are activities of certain elements or environs, what might be called seizures, falling sickness, epilepsy or the contraction or spasmodic condition in the area of the 1st and 2nd cervical, where the emotions
3603-1 Page 2
through the superficial circulation or the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal system do not coordinate in their entrance to brain reflexes.
6. If there will first be, then, this training in spiritual desires, the determination of the body-mind to be every whit clean from the spiritual self, the mental self, we would then make these applications:
7. For an hour each day, three days in succession each week (the same three days each week), we would apply Castor Oil Packs. After each three-day series, take internally at least two tablespoonsful of Olive Oil.
8. Do this for at least three weeks, then leave off for six weeks, and so on.
9. But after each application do give the body a massage especially to break up the lesions in the areas of the lacteal duct and in the connections of the sympathetic or glandular centers at the head of the pubic area. While the pubic centers are not to be covered with the oil packs, do use the massages here after these corrections will be physically made.
10. Use the Radio-Active Appliance for an hour each day just before retiring at night. Keep the attachment plate very clean. While there will be nothing felt in the vibrations from these, do make these applications - and through that period study the scripture, or teach it to the body - whoever would direct this phase of the entity's experience.
11. Do these and we will bring better conditions for the body, [3603].
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What is the best environment for the child? (A) As just indicated, the association in Divine Science, Unity or Christian Science, provided they do not require that the body be kept from making these administrations for the physical and mental self.
14. (Q) What is the best way to discipline her? (A) This will be in the same manner suggested. And if there is not found the response within, there will never be the response without - you might as well put the body away.
15. (Q) If a special school would be best for her, what school? (A) This will be school enough if you will follow these. If there is to be any special training, that along the line of mathematics and geography should be a part of the experience, but study the scripture itself - this should be sufficient. This is not to make the body goody-goody. It should be joyous in its activities.
16. We are through with this reading.
