1. EC: We have the body here - this we have had before. In some respects we find the general physical and mental forces on the improve, yet we find those of the discouraging nature to the mental activity of the body. Just persistence, just consistence in the forces of the mental and spiritual will keep an even balance. Do not lose control of self in the ability to concentrate in those activities. When there are the resultant effects or re-activities in the nervous forces as to cause the contraction, apply ice immediately to the base of brain. Ready for questions.

2. (Q) Has body been persistent enough to effect a cure? If not, please answer in what respect. (A) The persistency and the consistency do not always jibe in their application, or activity to self. Do not be impatient, but keep the activity - mentally and physically - as is at TIMES held. The body knows within self when it slips from that held for a complete recovery, a complete elimina tion of the causes as PRODUCE the reactions in system.

3. (Q) What is it that brings on or incites said attacks? (A) The attempt of the physical body - through the forces in the imaginative body - to coordinate through that condition existent in the lyden [Leydigian] gland, or in the base of the brain itself. Hence the contraction, and the lack of coordination in such conditions.

4. (Q) From what part of the body do the attacks originate? and why does body lose consciousness during attack? (A) From the solar plexus to that of the lyden [Leydigian] gland, or through the pineal. The lyden [Leydig] is IN the pineal, see?

5. (Q) Why does body lose consciousness? (A) That’s just what we have been giving! It is the imaginative forces and the cerebro-spinal forces, or the nerve supply through the cerebro-spinal system cuts off - through the lyden [Leydig?] forces - which is sealed gland, see? they lie within those of the pineal themselves, see? When these become of such an activity, through conditions as excite in the system - as thrown out from those of the genitive forces, acting through those of the solar plexus, and the attempt to coordinate - they push in so much it pushes out consciousness.

6. (Q) Has body control of genitive system and desires? If not, should body seek outside relief? (A) As has been given, in such conditions often these are beneficial - by the aid of those outside influences, as to reduce those conditions as excite through genitive system. Would be well here to seek it outside, using those of saltpetre and of such natures as come from the uses of same. That as is taken from tobacco itself would be well. Hence those of large amounts of nicotine in this body, as we find, would NOT be harmful.

7. (Q) Through whom or what should body seek to find self? (A) Find self in the STUDY of self, for that of self may not be found outside of self.

8. (Q) What foods are most detrimental to body? (A) Any that excite the activities of the system as related to genitive forces of the body. Those that are of too much of any red meats, those that are too much of any of the condiments, or of such natures. Too much sugars will add just as much as will too much alcohol. Abstain from those that would form for system too much of an alcoholic content in the digestive forces of body.

9. (Q) How long a time will it take to completely eliminate those pressures in the upper cervical and 11th and 12th dorsal? (A) As to how much time, this depends upon the full activity of system. Do not be impatient. Stick to it.

10. (Q) How long should body remain at hospital? (A) Until the body has at least gained CONTROL of self. We are through with this reading.
