Time of Reading 11:00 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5525]. Now, we find there are those conditions or disturbances in the physical forces of the body that may be corrected. While these conditions cause distress at times, these are from the effects of a poor circulation and the leaving of drosses in system that, set aright, will bring the near normal functioning for the body.

2. These conditions, as we find, have to do with the manner in which the foods affect the body, through stress as produced by cellular units in system and in functioning organs as related to incentives that induce the functioning thereof being shut off. Then we have with same disturbances in the nerve system. This, as we see, produces then that tendency of stiffness in the joints, or the blood supply becoming contaminated through the drosses as left in system, the functioning of the liver and the kidneys not coordinating properly with the drosses of the system, the respiratory system becoming subnormal, these drosses create more of that element in the leucocytes, so that stiffness occurs in the cartilaginous forces, or there is the tendency of too much silicon to be created in system, stiffness, hardness, and pains through the extremities re-occurring from this, or when the body lies down to rest at times we find a portion of the system apparently goes to sleep easily; stinging pains occur from same when the circulation is forced back through, from lack of the nerve energy being able to cope with the conditions, or to create a normal equilibrium and balance.

3. The first cause, or the seat of the trouble, as we find, began with conditions in the body in times past when there were disturbances with the organs as related to the changes that come about in the system, as regarding the change in life, and the system not coordinating in eliminations set up drosses that, gradually being absorbed by a portion of the system, not finding their proper outlet through other channels, tend to become in portions of the body these disturbing factors in the system.

4. To meet the needs, then, of the conditions of this body, first we would be mindful of the diet. There should be LITTLE of the proteins, or meats. Not more than once each week. Preferably, then, of whole wheat, graham flour, or of cereals, fruits that are of the alkalin producing in the system - until we have almost an over abundance of alkalin, or so that the lacteals in the system are NOT so often superseded by the the hydrochloric effect in the digestive system.

5. We would, then, give these as the conditions to be followed:

6. First we would, as with the diet, have those of the vegetable forces, the whole wheat, the brans, the cereals, the fruits - but NO apples! unless cooked. Milk - this in some manners is taboo for the body, yet in others is excellent. Those of the Bulgarian milk, or of the buttermilk would be the BETTER for the system. This is acid in its reaction, to be sure, in SOME cases. Not so here! for the bacilli as is created in system through same will produce effects such that we will have a cleansed colon by the use of same. Instead of the use of coffee, or tea, use those of the Ovaltine, or of such preparations. Cocoa may be taken in moderation. Not too much of the sweets!

7. When the diet is begun, also begin with this: Prepare two preparations: Chloride of Gold 10 grains to 10 ounces of distilled water. Bromide of Soda 20 grains to 20 ounces of distilled water. Begin with the dosage of these at least twice each day. To a half a glass of water add 10 drops of the Bromide of Soda water and 3 drops of the Chloride of Gold water, see? Then DRINK the half a glass of water. This preferably twice each day.

8. In the interim - that is, as the days go by - we will increase the dose every fifth day, until there is at least FIVE drops of the Gold taken and the proportionate amount of the Soda taken.

9. Applying each evening, after the bath, those of the Violet Ray over the extremities - especially the bottoms of the feet, palms of the hands, armpits, across the groin, across the lower portion of the abdomen. This will so stimulate the nerve centers and plexus from which the radiation is to the whole system, as to create a different vibration. After such a treatment is given, massage thoroughly into the cerebro-spinal system - from the base of the brain to the coccyx - those of equal parts of the Tincture of Myrrh, Olive Oil, and Sassafras Oil. Heat the olive oil, adding the myrrh and sassafras oil; using only sufficient to give a thorough massage, see? that is, only prepare sufficient at the time. After the fourth to fifth treatment, leave out the Sassafras Oil, for we will have created then an irritation to the exterior portion of the body, along the cerebro-spinal region, especially in the lower portion of body. This will disappear with the leaving off of the Sassafras Oil, but this we desire to create in the system to be assimilated by the system through the action of the cuticle, or the skin itself, and we will find with the keeping up of these conditions that within six to eight weeks the conditions will disappear. These will re-occur again will the body over stimulate through any of the factors that are as stimulants. DO NOT use in the system during the treatments for these conditions, any alcoholic forces with the treatments as are given with the Violet Ray - for THESE are detrimental, and would burn tissue, with this in system. Do that. Ready for questions.

10. (Q) How long should the Violet Ray be used each treatment? (A) Beginning with about two minutes, increasing as the time goes on until it may be given for at least fifteen minutes. The Violet Ray, as given, in palms of hands, bottom of feet, and armpits, groins, and abdomen - especially, see? across the liver, across the spleen, whole of the abdomen; especially in those centers where they pick up easily the ends of the lymphatic circulation; using that applicator as the ball, or the bulb, see? in the Violet Ray. We are through for the present.
