-
EC: Yes, we have the body; and those conditions which have disturbed same.
-
As we find, while much of the disturbing conditions have been aided, there is still the lack of the destruction of all tissue involved; that is: where the infectious forces have involved the soft tissue.
-
The mucous membranes about the joints, in the lower extremities; about the locomotory axis, and in the lumbar and coccyx area - these cause, or leave, a source of infectious forces.
-
And with atmospheric pressures, with the inability of the eliminations to care for the disturbance, they will continue to make disturbing conditions until the fever IS raised sufficient to destroy. Or the electrical wave - as the short wave; not the high voltage - may be used for the destruction of same.
-
This as we find done, and these carried in such ways and manners - then seeing that the system is not allowed to form in segregated portions - these should be eliminated entirely from the body.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Then the infection has not been killed yet? (A) There is infection still in the system, indicated by the swelling and the inflammation in the joints, in the lumbars and those areas over the body.
-
(Q) What is the next step? (A) As indicated, either the destroying of the infection through the fever or through the short wave; this to be determined, of course, by the self or one administering. But we do not have that so much that burns tissue, but the short wave - see? high and then reverses.
-
(Q) Which is the preferable? (A) This will be determined by the one administering.
-
(Q) Is operation on knee indicated in future? (A) Not if this is not allowed to become segregated.
Thus we find, when the destruction of the infectious forces is complete, it will be necessary to have the sweats, the manipulations, to eliminate the conditions from the body; else the DESTROYED tissue, or the ash, or the refuse forces or used energies, may form in ANY portion of the body. As the weakness is in knee, owing to tissue being weakened by the exceedingly high electrical forces, this becomes easily affected.
-
(Q) What is cause of occasional pains in rectal area? (A) As just indicated, in the coccyx and lumbar pressures upon tissue by the slowed circulation through those areas. Poisons, see?
-
(Q) How may it be determined when the infection is killed? (A) When there are no inflammatory conditions and little or no pain, when not in active motion, see?
-
(Q) Any other advice that would be helpful at this time? (A) Keep to those purposes, those attitudes of helpful hopefulness; that the opportunities accorded may be used in service to others. Such an attitude kept in the mental forces will bring the RENEWING of the faith in the divine, which IS the heritage of every soul.
