TEXT

1. FEM: Now, Mr. Cayce, you are going to sleep. (Pause) Now, Mr. Cayce, you are asleep, and all of the organs of your body will function properly. You will hear me and answer all of my questions. You have before you the body of [105].
2. Mr. Cayce, you have had this body before you a few days ago and gave us a splendid reading, but the stenographer failed to get your dictations. I want you to please go over this again as if you have never had it before you and give us a thorough reading, and tell us what her trouble - what her eye trouble is, and what can be done to relieve the eye trouble, or any other ailments that you may find within this body; [105], she is present in this room.
3. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We have had this before, you see.
   FEM: Yes, sir.
4. Now, we have much of the same conditions within this body as we have had before. Now, these are the conditions as we find at the present time. This body, this whole or entity of the body, you see?
   FEM: Yes, sir.
5. Is well developed along the lines of the development of the spiritual, mental forces, and with the action of the abnormal condition in the physical we have those ailments that show how the condition has come about; also those factors necessary to bring about the perfect equilibrium within the body and for the spiritual and mental forces to overcome the physical and bring to abeyance, to their command and orders as it were, in this physical body here. Through the blood supplying forces in this body we find about the centers that are governing the sympathetic and sensory nervous system those forces showing how the deflection of the circulation has been carried that has brought about the condition within the physical body here. See? FEM: Yes, sir.
6. Mrs. [105], we are speaking of. The action of the physical here may be said to have been given in this individual body, that the personal effect of the action of the spiritual and mental forces may be better or more strongly developed than this individual body itself. To reach the forces necessary to bring about the condition, the body must keep under abeyance all of the mental forces acted on by the cerebro- spinal force, and bring that in accord with the action of the sympathetic forces, so that we have the same vibration between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal forces, so that we may carry the proper equilibrium to the nerve force governing those of the sensory organism; especially the condition as exists with the eyes here in this body. See?
   FEM: Yes, sir.
7. The condition specific as we find in the eye at the present is with that - along with that nerve governing or carrying the impression as received through the lens or retina of the eye does not respond wholly and entirely to the vision as accepted by the organ itself, but through the lack of nutriment or of nourishment to the glands and fibrous nerves and fibrous blood vessels governing the optic forces that have choked off the vision itself, so that it remains, as it were, a blur and not a positive condition as accepted by the cerebro forces themselves, or the brain force in themselves. See?
   FEM: Yes, sir.
8. And we do not have the proper co-ordination between the action of the sensory forces to the sympathetic forces. See?
   FEM: Yes, sir.
9. The body must gain the better control of self. See?
   FEM: Yes, sir.
10. Submerge self and exalt the higher spiritual forces within the individual body, to bring the proper incentive to the nerve and blood forces that govern the organism of the sensory organism. See?
11. (Q) Yes, sir. Mr. Cayce, can you suggest a remedy for the eye trouble?
    (A) Mr. Cayce, can you suggest a remedy for the eye trouble. We have just given the conditions we have - must be brought about in this body to correct the eye trouble in this body.
12. (Q) Mr. Cayce, are there any other physical ailments within this body?
    (A) Mr. Cayce, are there any other physical ailments within this body. We have not given others.
13. (Q) Then, Mr. Cayce, we take it from that that there are no other physical ailments within this body.
    (A) Then, Mr. Cayce, we take it from that that there are no other physical ailments within this body.
    (Mrs. [105]: I did want to ask what diet is recommended for this nutrition.)
14. (Q) Mr. Cayce, what diet would be recommended for this body?
    (A) We find no other physical ailments within this body. This body is well developed, good in all particulars, so far as the functioning of the organs themselves. We have given the conditions that exist that are abnormal with the body, whyfore, or the reason that these were given or expressed in the body, we have given, here. See?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    As to how they could be helped or brought to the correct vibration, to be the metes and bounds for the reason of this body, and the action within this body, we have given here; you see?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    As to what diet shall be used in this body, we would give only those that are of the vegetable kingdom. See?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    No meats. As much of those that carry the life in the vegetable itself, that is, as much of it green as possible. See?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    You see this body understands the conditions regarding this. See.
    FEM: I see.
    FEM: (To Mrs. [105]) He says you understand the conditions yourself.
    [105]: (To Mr. Mohr) That I do?
    FEM: Yes. [105]: Yes, in a way I anticipated this thing. That is what I noticed the other day.
    FEM: Yes, on the same line.
    [105]: Yes, it is the same thing exactly, except that it is quite -
    FEM: Just wait a minute. He has some more to say.
    EC: Yes, it is vegetable diet, without meats.
15. (Q) Without meats. Mr. Cayce, have you any further recommendations to make for this body?
    (A) Mr. Cayce, have you any further recommendations to make for this body. Follow these as we have given here, you see?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    Those of the diet to produce the blood supplying forces shall be all those that are of nature and of the vegetable, which gives to the higher order of nerve and of blood supplying force to man and the body. See?
    FEM: Yes, sir.
    To keep as much on the outside, not indoors, but outside, within the spirit forces of the body, as possible. Follow these lines and these channels, - we will lead to the better development and the more rounding out of all the forces that lie within this body here. We are through.
    FEM: Now, Mr. Cayce, you will forget all about this reading you have given. You did splendidly. You did all right. You are feeling good, and all of the organs of your body function properly. Now, wake up in two minutes feeling just fine and all right.

REPORTS

1. 10/28/24 Letter: "Mr. Cayce, I have become more and more impressed with the 'reading' you gave me when you were in Birmingham, and I am still fighting for that beautiful balance that was indicated as necessary for a physical healing."
2. 5/22/26 Mrs. [105] referred Mrs. [3935] for Life Rdg.
3. 1/31/28 See 105-2, a Life Reading.
4. 4/02/28 Letter: "I am sure you were right in your diagnosis of my eye trouble four (?) years ago - 'nervous shock' resulting in a disturbed relation between the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal systems, but the cause remaining makes the cure problematical. I became discouraged at not being able to control the 'cause behind the cause' - but again have taken up the exercises prescribed and feel better in that respect."
