1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will give the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of the body.
2. EC: Now, while we find there are many abnormal conditions with this body, a great many of these are produced more by self-condemnation than from physical conditions produced by physical reaction. True, many abnormal conditions exist in the system and hinder the perfect functioning of the body, yet much of this is produced through that condition that with resistance set in mental forces in body, to meet the needs of the physical, the body would and could be physically in very much better conditions.
3. Now these can only be met through the mental forces, controlling self. In this first must the body find, know, believe, practice, manifest in self the abilities of healing forces for a physical body to come from within. That is, the body must determine from within itself that it will, through the help of the Divine from within, make all at a oneness with the Divine forces, and through this bring the better spiritual, physical and mental attributes to this body.
4. These may be assisted by taking certain physics in the body and having the reaction through the physical forces in the body, yet without this awakening in self, without this help coming from within, any outside influence would only be of a very temporary nature, but with the awakened spiritual forces from within, acting in accordance with the spiritual forces in self, the body can throw off these conditions and bring, give, manifest, much good in the physical and in its relations to others.
5. The properties to be taken in, that we may have the incentives necessary, are those that would be found in this:
Fluid Extract Wild Cherry.................1/2 ounce,
4358-1 Page 2
Fluid Extract Sarsaparilla Root, or Syrup of Sarsaparilla Root................1/2 ounce, Stillingia (Fluid Extract of).............1/2 ounce, Yellow Dock Root (Fluid Extract of).......1/2 ounce, Burdock (Fluid Extract of)................1/2 ounce, Polk Root (Fluid Extract of) [Poke Root]..1/4 ounce, Balsam Tolu.................................3 drams, cut well in alcohol before added to solution; sufficient simple syrup to make 8 ounces.
The dose would be teaspoonful twice each day.
6. Also keep the body well cleansed outside and in with pure water, giving sufficient of water that the whole system may be cleansed with these medicinal properties in their physical action. Also well that the lesions in the abdominal region, and in the pelvis and vagina proper, be cleansed regularly, that the secretions, the dross, may prevent the irritation when cleansed.
7. Do this, presenting, keeping, the whole mental, moral, physical body Holy and acceptable before Him, for without this first brought into self and made a part of self there will be no permanent healing through these properties given. With this the body can give much to others.
8. Do that.
9. We are through for the present.
