Edgar Cayce Readings, 226-1

(Physical Suggestion)

EC: We have had this body before. This body is better than when we had it before, you see. When we follow out more of the conditions as we have given we will find we will create within the system those elements to produce perfect elimination as far as it is possible to create within this body.
Take these properties into the system; in this manner as we have given: Clary flower or sage, six ounces - put into a half gallon of rain or distilled water and reduce by simmering, not boiling, to one quart. Strain and add to this, six ounces gin, then four ounces of sugar dissolved, and while warm add one ounce grain alcohol with fifteen grains of Ambergris dissolved in it, then add this to the other properties while warm. When cold, add three drams of cinnamon, preferably in the stick, not ground, you see. The dose of this would be a spoonful, tablespoon, thirty minutes before each meal. Do that. Prepare in the manner as we have given.
(Q) What is the trouble with this body's right hand?
(A) The condition from the nerve forces, and the condition from the brachial plexus to these forces.
(Q) Do the teeth contribute to the cause of ill health to this body? If so, what will be the remedy?
(A) No.
(Q) Why did the other medicine sour?
(A) Not prepared in the manner as was given here. These are; not what was left out of the other medicine. Follow these. Do not take when sour. We are through.

Earlier rdg. was given of which there is no copy in the A.R.E. files. [Apoplexy? Diabetes?]
11/02/22 Wife wrote EC to B'ham, from Montgomery, Ala: "Since your rdgs. here, we have tried the prescription for Mr. [226] conscientiously, and with some good results, but there has probably been something of a misunderstanding somewhere, probably on the part of the stenographer, for as we understood it the ingredients have been very carefully gotten and mixed, but the medicine sours before being used. As there is quite enough alcohol in it to preserve it, I feel sure there is something wrong...
"Dr. Elise L. Stone [N.D.] has written you and tried to reach you by phone, too, to say that there are several people here (3 or 4) who want a rdg., and would like you to come...
"Have listed the questions for your or Mr. Jones' convenience [GD's note: Possibly W. L. Jones of Selma, Ala. conducted the former rdg. for her husband?], and trust it will be possible for you to do this for me right away... Hoping you and your co-worker are both well, and that you will be blessed in this great work, for I think you are given a great power for a great work and will do it."

12/05/22 Wife obtained ck. physical rdg. 226-2 for him, which indicated that he was at the point of death, from complications with pneumonia (?).
