TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [751], present in this room.
2. Now, as we find, the conditions-physical in many respects are very good; yet there are disturbing influences in the physical body, and these - as we find - may be corrected in the present and prevent a disturbance that, while somewhat hidden in the present, may cause a great deal of disorder later on.
3. These conditions, as we find, show rather symptoms or tendencies, and have not assumed any proportions other than that make for disturbances in the present.
4. Then, these are conditions as we find them with this body, [751] we are speaking of, present in this room:
5. First, in the BLOOD SUPPLY we find an indication of there being disturbances that are as infectious forces in the system from time to time. These, while not in the nature of creating an unstabilized condition, or a metabolism that would be disturbing (except at certain periods), arise from conditions that may be corrected, and thus make for a much bettered condition. For the INFECTIOUS forces are the SYMPATHETIC forces from these, that make for a soft tissue disturbance in the circulation of the lymph; as in throat, lung, head at times, in measures that are disturbing - though not disorders of the nature as to be other than passing at times.
6. In the NERVOUS SYSTEM we find somewhat different conditions, for they arise in their primary nature from pressures that exist in the lower portion of the cerebrospinal system, in the coccyx area, and the inflection to the glands there at times produces a nervousness that makes for an irritation, and rises to such an extent that this lymph circulation becoming disturbed makes for the general reactions through the body. These, as we find, affect in a sympathetic manner the glands there.
7. As to the ORGANS themselves of the body:
8. Brain forces are very good.
9. The reactions between sympathetic and cerebrospinal system are very good. These aid in keeping a balance for the body, in the manner in which it approaches mental conditions or experiences, and physical influences and activity in the body. These are, as we find for this body, ABOVE the normal; that is, if the body desires to put a thing from its mind it can! And not everyone can do it! And often the body doesn't understand others that can't!
10. As indicated, the activities in the sensory system are affected sympathetically, from repressions or conditions in the coccyx end of the spine. So we have through the sympathetic system the tendency of a flow that becomes abnormal in the creating at times of an extra amount of mucous to the throat; as a SINGING sensation in the auditory forces - and not a great amount of cold required to produce it. At other times we have a reflex action as of a burning of the eyelids; yet not any infectious force in the blood supply that causes or produces any condition in this portion of the body.
11. In the throat, bronchi, lungs and larynx we find sympathetic reactions at times call for or produce in the body the tendency where this THINNING or separating - as it were - from the glands' reactions in those portions of pressures upon the nervous system - causes the overflowing of the lymph circulation, attempting to meet the balance in the body. Hence, as indicated, these measures taken or these conditions removed in the present would be much easier, before there has been the adjustment of the body - or it becoming, as it were, a constitutional condition, or the body making changes or alterations. For the effects from this is to produce in the ducts and glands that secrete for the keeping of the balance in the body, those forces that tend to make for the adherence rather than for the separations - as so often occurs by this dividing up, as it were, of the impulse. Hence we produce a salts or an acid that becomes defective, or produces deflections in the functioning of the organs through the kidneys and through the hepatic circulation as a whole. These are the things to be warned against. For with this glandular condition there come those reactions to the whole of the functioning organs of the body; from a form of a lesion (lateral) in the coccyx and sacral area, affecting the glands that aid in the balance of the eliminations as coordinated from the lower hepatic circulation.
12. Then, in meeting the needs for these conditions as we find them for this body, [751] we are speaking of, present in this room:
13. We would have the corrections through the manipulations and adjustments specifically in the coccyx and the sacral areas, and the COORDINATING of same with each of the locomotory plexus - the cervical or brachial area and, to be sure, those that coordinate with the brain centers' reaction. Take these two or three each week for a period of three to four weeks; then rest from these applications for an equal period.
14. Then, during the rest period (not before), take internally very small quantities of atomic iodine - in that called Atomidine; one minim (or drop) before the morning meal and one minim before retiring - in half a glass of water. This is to make for the stimulation to the glands throughout the system, of those influences that will aid these secretions to be not increased but stimulated, that their activity and their vitality are strengthening rather than at times drawing upon other portions of the body in these disturbing influences. Just two drops should be taken each day, one before the morning meal and one before retiring. Of course, fifteen to twenty minims would not be dangerous, but WOULD be harmful to this body - for it would produce an OVERBALANCE, see? But taken in the small quantity, the one minim of mornings makes for the secretions in the assimilating influences as through the gastric flow first from the salivary glands, increased activities from the glands in the digestive influences, influencing the thyroid activity, increasing those secretions and activities in the adrenals, the glands from the upper hepatic circulation where disturbances from the gall activity have at times produced irritations to the system, reflexly. And the one minim taken in the evenings, as the body rests in the normal repose, allows portions of the body to function the more from what may be termed the INNER self - or the subconscious self; and works upon the gland activity.
15. THEN we would have, for two more weeks, the manipulations and adjustments - and the specific adjustments in the coccyx portion of the spine.
16. And as the conditions have been eased by these corrections, and in the glands in the lower portions that adhere or join to the coccyx area, the body will be relieved.
17. Do these and, as we find, we will bring a much nearer normal and the more proper reaction to this body, [751].
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) Is there anything wrong with the prostate gland?
    (A) That's what we've been talking about all the while here! The inflammation in the areas indicated comes from that produced in times back, by more of an injury to the coccyx area; so that the prostates HAVE suffered from these conditions, see, and HAVE produced those effects throughout the body. This is what we are speaking of! Then the conditions are allowed to become active in general through the body!
    Meet these in the present.
20. (Q) What caused the condition in the coccyx area?
    (A) An injury - sitting down hard; it's apparently more from being straddle of something that injured it; or struck with something - at the END of the spine.
21. (Q) Can I do anything to prevent catching so many colds?
    (A) Keep the body alkalin, as will be indicated from the manipulations to produce the general flow and the drainages set up in the system; and this will overcome these conditions.
    In the diets, keep away from heavy red meats and fried foods of any kind. Make at least one meal a day of only raw fresh vegetables, and we will keep away from colds!
22. (Q) Why can't I put on some weight?
    (A) There has been a strain upon the whole general building of the system, and when these corrections are made the normal balance will allow the body to rise about to one sixty-five to one seventy.
23. (Q) I followed the diet of raw vegetables and lost eleven pounds.
    (A) This was more than one meal, when these were taken. Only ONE meal of the raw vegetables; while a regular balance would be kept in the other meals, and we will put ON weight - IF the corrections are made. There is a lack of the proper assimilations. And when the disturbances arise from the lesion in the coccyx and the inflammation throughout the glands' activity, these PREVENT the ASSIMILATING forces from giving STRENGTH.
    Follow these conditions, and we will bring the better forces for this body.
24. (Q) Why am I impotent?
    (A) From the very same influences. When there is the drain upon the system from this gland activity, it drains the strength and vitality from the body, see? Pressure upon the nerve forces as have to do with the hepatic and the genitive system. Do these, and we will correct this condition.
25. We are through for the present.

REPORTS

1. 12/04/34 Ltr. to Hugh Lynn Cayce from Mr. [751]:
   Mr. Hugh Cayce, Virginia Beach, Virginia
   Dear Mr. Cayce:
   Will you kindly arrange to give me a check reading on myself as soon as you possibly can? I have been feeling worse for the last couple of days and for this reason, I should like you to ask your Dad the following questions:
   1) Why do I have these sick headaches, which just takes the pep out of me? 2) Why do I get these flush spells and nervous spells accompanied by a chill?
   These conditions were prevalent prior to my taking any adjustments, (of which I have had two already) but the condition seems to have gotten worse since then and occur more often.
   3) Have I got a drop stomach? What is the cause of it? 4) Will I continually have to wear my steel brace? 5) What test can I make, if any, to sort of prove that these reactions are caused by the disturbance to the glands? 6) Just what do you mean by treatment to the coccyx area? 7) What does this treatment consist of?
   Will you please give me this reading and answer these questions as quickly as you possibly can?
2. 12/14/34 See 751-2.
3. 12/24/34 See Dr. Frank P. Dobbins' letter under 751-2 Reports saying "This man's chief complaint is impotency."
