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 here, [5348].
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions of rather a specific nature and sources of disturbance. These, to be sure, as in most entities' experience, are tied with the mental and spiritual development of the soul-entity. For every entity should know that the soul never forgets. For it is eternal.
4. In the physical attributes of the body we find there have been, or are, the after-effects of an exceedingly high temperature, of a virus which makes for taking away of the vital energy of the muscular and nerve forces of the extremities; or polio, as it is sometimes called.
5. In this particular body, as we find, it is principally, or almost wholly, of the lower limbs. Thus the locomotory centers of the lower limbs are the more involved. The atrophy is of the upper and lower portion of the limbs.
6. Then, to bring bettered conditions, we should begin with the first things first. Not that there is at all times resentments in the body-mind for the affliction which has come to the body, but there is at times pity of self, which is in reality a form of selfishness. Know this, learn this well: God is mindful of thee and will not allow thee to suffer beyond that ye are able to bear in thy body-mind, that ye may prepare the soul for the closer walk with Him.
7. Remember this also, that though He were the Son, yet learned He obedience through the things which He suffered. Thou art not greater; thou art not better than He. Yet in Him ye may find relief, ye may find help. For hath He not given that where two or three persons in body, mind and soul

agree toward anything, "Ask in my name of the Father, He will give it to thee"? These are sure promises. Not that this, a physical being, may be used to gratify only thine own heart of body but that the use of thy limbs may be to the glory of God. Hold thee this in mind, in meditation, in prayer, and how those ye love best in body, those who love thee best in body, are to pray, to meditate, to work with thee physically.
8. Yes, apply Peanut Oil to the body. Massage daily across hip, down the sciatic centers or nerves, under the knees, around the knee cap, the ankles and the feet [away] from the body, each day, all the body will absorb.
9. Eat those things which are the seed of the soil, as fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, raw and cooked, yes.
10. Let these be as that which will aid. For all life is a manifestation of the sources of health, of the sources of help. For who healeth thy diseases? He who giveth thee life. And remember, He is not mocked, and what a man soweth, that he must also reap. Look to Him, trust in Him, use that indicated. Ye will have use - exercise in the open - ye will gain the use of thy limbs.
