Edgar Cayce Readings, 294-121

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before. Now, as to the physical conditions and those elements as PRODUCE same, in its entirety, covers a wide range at this particular time; wholly understood, would give a different insight from the concept USUALLY taken as respecting physical conditions of the body - for they are astrological, psychological, mental and physical.
Physically speaking, we find THIS condition apparent - now, APPARENT - understand its meaning!
In the lower portion of the stomach, or the duodenum, where the surface of the walls of same are so exaggerated, elongated, or spread through the various folds so that assimilation may take place from that assimilated from the foods taken, here we find - NOT ulcerations, not a diseased condition - rather the dis-ease, and through these walls of tissue, or the walls of the duodenum itself, POISONS pass - and taken in the blood through the activity of the emunctory and lymph, produce pressure through the vegetative system, that brings distress to the various portions of the body from which radial reflexes come through sympathetic AND through cerebro-spinal reactions. THAT physically.
In the psychological effect, worry - distress in a MENTAL reaction - often brings these activities to a more acute reaction.
In the astrological, those positions of the effect of the planetary reactions through which the entity itself passed in its relation one to another, become more active during certain periods.
Combine these, and you have the condition existent in this body, Edgar Cayce we are speaking of.
Meeting the needs of the conditions at present, it should be understood - while the OVERACIDITY is ordinarily understood as to be the basis of POISONS, there is just as much and more SEVERE reaction from an overalkalin - as does exist here at times - than there is in the acid reaction. For the alkalin reacts - while the acid, in the duodenal or duodenum, will contract; and this overacid, then overalkalin, causes PHYSICALLY this reaction. The effect is to keep the liver and the gall reactions from acting, for it is acid, and the strictures and adhesions in the sacrum have already weakened these reactions. Hence that which will create that vibration in the system that will cause the proper reactions from the liver through the bile ducts, through the pancreas, and that which will keep the feces cleansed from the colon, from the ileum, from the jejenum, from the caecum, that there is NOT PRESSURE left there, this, PHYSICALLY, will react to the PHYSICAL benefits of the body.
Psychopathically, keep the mind filled with that as is constructive in the mental, in the physical, in the spiritual.
In the astrological, being forewarned be forearmed, and use such of the herbs or such of medicinal properties as will counteract materially, or physically, such normal reaction BOTH mental AND physical, AND pathological, AND astrological.
These, then, would keep the nearer normal conditions, when these react.
Conditions change from day to day. Conditions are reacting continually in the system. What may be meat today may be poison tomorrow. That means anybody, too!
In this reaction, then, for THIS particular body - keep those properties as will cleanse the system, also keep those of such manipulations as that will relax the body generally, throughout, that ASSIMILATION and the arterial CIRCULATION may be one. Also that the excretory forces of ALL organs, especially the liver AND kidneys, are not retarded by contractions in any sympathetic or cerebro-spinal nerve impulses along the system - cleansing occasionally the colon through that of the enemas, also keeping the respiratory system stimulated - and keep the mind clean. Ready for questions. We are through.
