Edgar Cayce Readings, 61-1

Time and Place: Unknown. ..., N.J.

TEXT

N: Now Mr. Cayce, you are going to sleep - a quiet, peaceful and restful sleep. All the organs of your body will function perfectly - you will be normal in every way. You will hear me what I say and answer the questions I shall ask you, slowly and distinctly so that we may get every word. Now, Mr. Cayce, you are asleep and you have before you the body of Mrs. [61]. You will see this body and go over it carefully and tell us what the trouble is if anything, and what to do to make it normal again. You will answer any questions about this body.
EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we have the conditions in this body here that are abnormal that have to do with the system throughout for they are affecting both the circulation and nerve energy of the whole system by too much cross currents, as it were, of the forces supplying the incentive to circulation and nerve energy in the body. As we have here, air entering the lung force forms and produces new cell energy to the whole system so that each unit of energy has its incentive to carry to the various portions of the body the force and power which it is to exercise and use to the proper rebuilding and to the keeping of an equilibrium throughout the system. This is nerve energy. These we find save through the spinal cord or column are circumventions, that is, they surround or produce a cycle around each vein or artery throughout the system, so that incentives to nerve force acting with the muscular conditions in the body produce the blood supplying force to carry on the rebuilding and the eliminating properties of the whole system.
There are in this system certain nerve centers and ganglia that have become crossed so that their energies are carried on at variance with the whole system, so the incentives or reflex given to the brain force to act out through the system become deflected or cause the improper action to this and the wrong incentive to the brain action or force. Just as we find this center in the lung force where incentive is taken or gives a new life through the blood by the clarification of the blood. In this we find that the nerve force receives its incentive from the new force carried to the blood supply. Again these are reflected in the brain or between the upper and lower brain. We have another pump or engine carrying nerve and blood supply to this part of the body, again we find the same in the system here just below the solar plexus where all activity is given to the trunk portion of the body. That is below the diaphragm, so that all action of the organs in the pelvis are divested of or go through power of action through this central channel or force.
In this connection in this center or along those ganglia from the ends of these do we find the currents as it were of those and cause trouble to the whole system, so that the troubles we have are reflex conditions to a nerve and blood supply of this body here. Nerve energy as deflected becomes then in reactive force through circulation and through supplying force to the various organs and temperamental forces in the body.
In the second lumbar ganglia we find forces that affect the locomotories direct so that their action to the sciatic nerves become reflex to the ends, especially as we find in the feet, causing the muscular force in its revibration, as it were, to circulate opposite from what nature intended. Then we have the knuckle or joint or toes and arch which become contracted opposite from the way they should be. We give a reaction to the muscular force so that the nerves or the ends in these become so close to the cuticle as to give pain through the cerebrospinal forces, reflexly when it is caused by improper distribution of the nerve force from the central plexus governing these here in the lumbar the same as we have here, now reflexly become to these through the second ganglia, that is, in the one in the first lumbar, but the one in the ganglia toward the solar plexus center or nerve entering and going toward the brain that causes to the hepatic circulation interferences causing the juices excreted, not the secretions now, the excretions from the liver (which is one of the largest organs in the whole system and has more to do with the action of the whole system than any other one single organ in the body outside the brain) to cause its juices that are excreted to work against the forces or juice produced in the pancreas and duodenum, that we have then the sick nausea at times, the depression then to all forces, or giving reflex condition from crossed energy and force in the pelvis at the second lumbar in this body. We see these have been crossed by ligaments and nerve ends and energies being exposed and being tied in such shape that the nerve force becomes cross wired.
What we need to add to the system is those things that will give the same vibrations to this plexus as is necessary for this body and at the same time carry those properties into the system that would produce an equilibrium throughout the body, not that which would excite the nerve energy to such a force that would contract the muscular forces but that which gives the same vibration of units as is expressed and given to the lung force and power here. An addition of any vibration beyond that in which the body individually is vibrated becomes a hindrance to the development of the body rather than assistance to any of the physical attributes of the system. So that we would add to the system in this way:
Electrical force as applied through this: A Battery made in this form and manner - a jar (glass) of a gallon - gallon and one half plain rain water. To this there is a positive and a negative pole attached, one of nickel, the other of iron, that is positive and negative, as we have given, laterally. To this water we add salines, common table salt, to the amount of 1/4 lb. To this there is added copper 1 dram. Inside of this we place another jar in which there is water (this is glass also) in which there is to be tincture of iodine 1 oz. Electrical currents now are passed through this of l4 amperes, 28 cycles, 110 volts for the period of one (this is direct) hour so it is charged with this force that goes in and out. Then this is applied to the second lumbar vertebrae with a plate to this body here. The plate shall be of copper with small wires attached to each of these. This treatment will be given to the body for ten minutes morning and evening. One charge of this battery will be sufficient to put this body on its feet so that the resistive forces in the system will be able to eliminate and carry out through the whole system all of the forces here as needed to make proper distribution and compel nerve energy and force throughout the lower portion of the body to come to the normal equilibrium. Do that.
(Q) How long will it take for this body to become normal?
(A) The use of this battery here as we have given - three to six weeks
(Q) Shall this body follow any particular diet, Mr. Cayce?
(A) Those foods in the system that tend to work and make towards brain energy and force so that she controls herself. If it is meats, those of wild game and fish - very little of either - not too much of forces but always carrying plenty of salines and highly seasoned, not with black pepper but with red.
(Q) Is the present climate alright for this body?
(A) Do as we have given here which is good for this climate.
(Q) Shall this body continue the medicine she is now taking, Mr. Cayce?
(A) As we are giving these properties here through electrical force we would say that was sufficient for the body here for two or three days, leaving off medicinal properties now being taken, only take in half dose at first, after some little time leave off altogether taking these medicinal properties. We are giving medicine through electrical force to add to those parts affected instead of taking into the system. It is carrying to the proper place, that is why we are giving through this electrical force here and to places where it will be added in proper cellular force.
