  1. EC: Now, we find there are many changes in the body, both through the physical and mental, and many of these are for the betterment of the body, physically, and when correctly applied to the physical, the mental and spiritual will and would also be benefited thereby.

  2. The conditions as we find through the digestive tract, and through the organs of generation, are considerably improved, both by the mental attitude of the individual and through the physical, physically. There only needs be that the body keep that diet for the system that the physical needs through its inmost desires, and not override those conditions by the will of the individual. For the inmost conditions of desire in the individual would and do lead the physical of this body correctly. Only when these are overridden by the self-aggrandizement, or self motives of the carnal excess, or success of the physical, does the body become enamoured with these conditions that hinder.

  3. The temporary conditions in extremities are improving, and only need care and attention to bring the normal to this physical body.

  4. With the change of attitude of the mental, the spiritual of the entity is being left, as it were, to manifest in and through this entity, and only needs to be allowed to so direct that the best morally, mentally and physically may be brought to this individual.

  5. Keep in those lines that lead to the understanding of self, and so present the physical that it may be holy and acceptable unto Him; remembering that the physical is the earthly temple of the God to whom one should give of one’s best, and it is only a reasonable service that this be presented holy and acceptable unto Him.

  6. (Q) Is the present treatment of the hair good for it? (A) Do as we have given, if we would bring the best to the hair. This is not as we have given it.

  7. (Q) What effect does the teeth’s condition have on the body? (A) None save the local condition as is presented.
