Time of Reading 4:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Va. (Physical Suggestion - [4432] present in the living room of this house.)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here - [4432]. Now, in the physical forces of the body we find there are conditions that nominally would be called purely MENTAL. We have conditions that, viewed from the psychiatrist standpoint, are of a MENTAL. We have conditions as viewed from the psycho-analytical condition would be called suppression; yet these are NOT correct, yet all would be correct.
2. In the condition then existent, we find there are physical functionings that have been not so much suppressed as so OVERTAXED as to cause enlargements that produce in the functioning of the sympathetic and cerebrospinal system those of incoordination, or not proper returns from impulse; or that of FEAR supplanted often by that of depression following same.
3. By analysis and by examination there will be found an engorgement in the 1st and 2nd cervical, or at the base, where through the gland there (pineal) to the brain centers, we find the reaction such as to produce an improper condition, or that state that has reached that of where even scar tissue (may be termed) has formed in centers of the brain; though not in a nature that could not be assisted or REMOVED were these taken or handled properly.
4. Now the question arises, where or what produced such conditions. There will be seen in the history of the body and its development, those conditions wherein through forces that deal with the continuity of life, the application of self towards self as respecting conditions happening in or through the leydig glands, and with that of the endocrine glands, and with those that affect the end of the pineal, those that caused this over-activity through the genitory system. This, then, in its reaction brought about these engorgements. Then that suppression through the activity of the body as respecting such relations. Then that of sorrow, sadness, and fear entered with this pressure. Now there is

seen, by relieving the pressure along the cerebrospinal system, especially in the region of those centers governing the leydig and the glands about the capsule of the kidney that add to the activity of those that engender in the genitory organism those activities in gentation which act directly with the forces of the pineal centers, going to and through that of the medulla oblongata, these form the connection where, as given, relief may be temporarily had by the relieving of these conditions; yet there not being in the system that which will add TO that of the cellular forces as would replace the body activity in development as is reached after the age that is necessary for the engendering into the system of those principles that are added in the activity of the leydig gland, these are only temporary. Now the condition having reached so far, necessary to add to the system that which will produce in the system that of hypnosis to the sympathetic and cerebrospinal - these are hardships to be met. Had this been taken from six to seven years ago, easily might this have been corrected. Had there been added to the system those properties or those vibrations that would respond to the gentation, or to the replenishing in the system of that stability of replenishing in cellular vibration. Yet these may be added to bring about bettered condition, and would the body RESPOND to these, these may be kept continually so, until we would find within six months to sixteen months a response that would bring bettered conditions, provided there were not the continuation of those narcotics in the system. So we have two conditions to combat. One entirely differing from the other. These may be added, then, through the addition of the vibration as would be set by the Radio-Active Appliance carrying Gold into the system, see? These should be given at least once each day, preferably just before retiring, or it may be taken in the afternoon and the dosage of the narcotic or hypnosis gradually reduced until the vibrations from the Radio-Active forces would be given in its stead. The manipulations should be gentle each day, and stiff or deeper every third day, see? Two days gentle, one day then the deeper. Continue with these until they are able to reduce the amount of the narcotic or the hypnosis, or this may be CHANGED to a capsule that would assist in relieving the pain or the depression, and which would be EASIER removed, though of necessity there will have to be those of common judgement used, else we will find self-destruction coming to the front in same. In these capsules we would use this, as a liquid, and this in each dose:
4432-1 Page 3
Eucalyptol, Oil of..............1 minim, Creosote......................1/2 minim, Turpentine, Extract of..........1 minim, Canadian Balsam.................1 minim.
Needn't make more than two or three of these, for they will not last. These should not be given more than one every other day, see? This will of necessity not be begun until the dosage of the hypnotic is reduced to a very nominal or normal; but in sixteen months, with this careful training, this careful activity, the body should be near normal. We are through for the present.
