Time of Reading 11:05 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. West Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [5493]. Now, we find there are many irritations in the physical functioning of the system, with this body. Most of these, as we find, are produced by reflexes from conditions existent in the nervous system, and with the correction of these conditions - and the general BUILDING up of the system by proper precautions as to the diet, the mode or manner of living, the thinking, and the mental attitudes of the body held in accord with CREATIVE forces, or the spiritual side of life - would bring for the body a much bettered PHYSICAL condition, a much bettered outlook on life, and MAKE the experience more worthwhile.
2. The conditions in the blood supply, produced by irritations that come from conditions in the cerebrospinal system, which - with their reactions upon the nervous system - produce those conditions in digestive system, in lungs, bronchi and throat, the seat or the cause - as we find - from irritations in the pelvic organs, or system, and make for a general irritation in the organs, producing improper functioning in same, with discharges that are IRRITATING to the body and produce a general nervous debilitation that gives more of the irritating to the rest of the functioning system.
3. Then, to meet or to overcome these conditions, there should be first the general attitude as to life, as to the spiritual environments of the body-consciousness, as to a faith, a trust, IN something.
4. There should be those manipulations and corrections in the cerebrospinal system, that will alleviate the pressures in the lumbar and dorsal region, as well as alignments in the upper dorsal and cervical. These should be taken, as we would find, at least three to four times each week. These may be given either osteopathically or chiropractically, so that the ADJUSTMENTS or the alleviations are made.
5. Then, after each treatment, there should be the
5493-1 Page 2
vibrations from the violet ray for at least three to four, to five minutes, over the WHOLE of the cerebrospinal system, to enliven the circulation OVER the centers that especially are adjusted.
6. At least once each week there should be used the appliance of the violet ray, that injection of the vagina appliance, that may give the proper reactions to the organs of the pelvis.
7. The diet should be in THIS manner:
8. Mornings - citrus fruit, WITH stewed fruits, preferably as of prunes, figs, apples, or the like, with some milk.
9. Noons - juices of meats, with vegetable juices or soups, but no meats; followed with a salad - green vegetables, especially.
10. Evenings - a well balanced diet, that is nerve and blood building. The finishing of this meal should be with either fresh or raw pears, or stewed pears. These carry the iron that will ASSIMILATE for the system. The meats should be such as pig knuckle or souse, without vinegar, or those of liver, or the like. All the vegetables should be eaten with the skins, rather than the pulp - as of potatoes, the yams or the white or Irish potatoes - the skins rather than the pulp. As with the vegetables, preferably those of spinach, lentils, cabbage (red cabbage), and the like. Beans, dried - but WELL cooked, but not with too much of the fats with same.
11. These, we find, will bring to the body that of a better, clearer, more worthwhile life. Do that.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) How often should the violet ray be applied over the body? (A) After each treatment, as given, but once a week - at least - use the vagina applicator.
14. (Q) For how long at a time? (A) For three to five minutes in the appliance over the body, and from three to five minutes - when used - for the vagina.
15. (Q) Do my eyes need attention now? (A) With the adjustments and the changes as would come AFTER the treatments, or after the SERIES of treatments, would be better than adjustments for them at present.
16. (Q) What should be done for itching hemorrhoids? (A) With the diet corrected, with the applications as will be given from the violet ray through the vagina, these will be cleared.
17. (Q) What should I do for the itching skin, especially on arms and neck? (A) Correct the diet, correct the nervousness - see - as we
5493-1 Page 3
will through these adjustments, and we will find these will care for themselves.
18. (Q) What is condition of lungs? (A) Rather that of impoverishment, and of cold or sticky condition, exists there.
19. That is all the questions.
20. Be mindful that the proper attitude is held, that consistency and persistency of thought AND act is carried out, would we gain assistance through these suggestions given.
21. We are through for the present. Copy to Self (through Mrs. [959]) " " File " " Ass'n
