Edgar Cayce Readings, 1061-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here. As we find, while the conditions are of a serious nature, affecting the coordinations in the nervous forces of the body (that control the activity of the impulses; and through those applications that have been made there are caused the periods when the distortions arise in the functionings of the organs through the respiratory forces), HELP may be given - and a prolonging of the experiences of the body. And eventually there may be brought through CONSISTENT application - the much nearer normal physical reactions through this body, [1061].
These, then, are the conditions as we find:
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, there are the indications of an impoverishment, owing to the distressed conditions that have existed in the inability of the proper assimilations. And these arise in the major part from the adhesions in the lacteal ducts, that have prevented the proper activity through the glands as in relationships to the supplying of the elements in the physical relationships of the mental and the physical forces of the body.
Hence the developments in those directions have been to bring distortions for the activities there. These have existed from periods that began some moons ago.
IN THE NERVOUS FORCES OF THE BODY, we find there are the incoordinations between the cerebrospinal and the vegetative or sympathetic nerve forces of the body.
Hence those periods when there are the laps to the activities through the mental coordinating with the physical indications in the body, as we have given.
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS, from the inactivity through those portions of the body that are affected by the glands' secretions for the necessary cellular rebuilding, and for bringing about the influences in the body, all the organs suffer under the existent reactions in the ducts as coordinated with the assimilated body.
Then, in the beginnings, we would make those applications of the low form of the electrical vibrations that would be had through the galvanic activity carrying vibrations of solutions into the body. Each day for twenty to thirty minutes this Wet Cell or galvanic activity would be attached to the body, in this manner - and carrying solutions alternated in this manner:
The first day: The smaller copper anode would be attached first, in those relationships between the secondary cardiac plexus - or the 2nd and 3rd dorsal center. The larger nickel anode, passing through the Gold solution (in the proportion of one grain to one ounce of the distilled water), would be attached last - to the umbilicus and lacteal duct area.
The next day: The smaller copper anode would be attached first, to the 4th LUMBAR plexus. The larger nickel anode, passing through the 10% solution of Nitrate of Silver, would be attached last - to the umbilicus and lacteal duct area, the same as the Gold solution.
Alternate each day in this manner.
The activities of these upon the body are to be, and should be, such as to produce - with that as may be assimilated - (the Gold) - stamina, as it were, in the very activity of the circulations through the glands' forces that have been disturbed by the conditions that have existed in the system.
The Silver vibrations act upon the lower axis of the body that functions with the lower portion of the assimilating system (attached in the manner indicated), and supplies those necessary influences to reduce that tendency for this incoordination between the cerebrospinal and the sympathetic nerve forces of the body.
When these have been supplied or added for the period of a charge of the galvanic cell (or twenty-six to thirty-six days), then we would give those further suggestions for the additions - or the corrections, which we find MUST be made - if we are to make the proper coordinations in this body, [1061].
Ready for questions.
(Q) What first caused this condition?
(A) It is from the periods when there was an injury in the inception, or the activities of the body in its early BODILY development.
(Q) Please outline a diet.
(A) That which is alkalin in its reaction. This would necessarily be changed to make for the addition of that which becomes a portion of body, blood and nerve building forces for the body.
For the vitality being low, the foods must be body, blood and nerve building - but alkalin in their reactions.
Do this for twenty-six to thirty-six days; then we would give the further instructions.
(Q) What is the seat of the trouble?
(A) As indicated; those conditions or adherences that exist in the lacteal duct or assimilating system of the body.
(Q) Can this be made more clear, so the father - present in the room - may understand?
(A) There has been the outline here. The lacteal ducts, that supply the nutriment through the assimilating system, being in a condition - through the conditions brought about that caused the adherences in the area - as to produce this incoordination, as a growth, causes those disturbances that exist in the physical functioning of the body.
These conditions applied in the manner as indicated will begin the building of those forces where this incoordination will be changed; so that those appliances that may be given - and those corrections as we would find would be necessary - would make the physical and the mental body nearer into coordination.
(Q) Explain what is meant by the incoordination.
(A) The forces in the mental body and in the physical body fail to coordinate one with another in their activity, or responses from within or without.
(Q) Would it be necessary to move the body to a different climate?
(A) Not necessary, if the applications are begun as indicated - as we find. For these suggested applications are considering all the activities in the physical reactions, with the necessary forces for producing not only resuscitating but recuperative forces for this coordination.
Do that, as has been given. Then there may be given further instructions.
We are through with this reading.

(11/22/35 GD's note: I understand you do not feel that the reading fits your daughter's condition. If, after studying it over, you feel you would like to apply the treatments or applications suggested, I will be glad to give you the name of the company where the appliance mentioned to be used in this case can be obtained.
See letter [which was enclosed] with directions to be sent to the company for making up the Wet Cell Appliance according to specifications. When you receive the appliance, if you are not sure about how the attachments are to be made, call Dr. John R. Thompson (Osteopath) in the Stevens Bldg., Detroit, who will be glad to come out and show you the parts of the body referred to in the reading...where the attachments are to be made.
See list [which was enclosed] of Alkalin-Reacting Foods, which should help you to follow the diet recommended.
See paper [which was enclosed] explaining theory of the type Appliance referred to.
The girl's father insisted the reading did not fit, that his daughter had bronchial asthma, nothing was advised according to doctors but change of climate.)

REPORTS

11/30/35 EC was arrested on a charge made by the girl's father of practising medicine without a license. See 254-89 Background and Reports.
3/07/38 Mrs. [601]'s letter: "While Mr. [619] was in Montreal he met Ira Copeland (who formerly lived in Detroit) and spent some time with him. During the conversation [619] remembered that Ira had been a very close friend of 'our friend' Mr. [...] [[1061]'s father] and mentioned to Ira what a contemptible rat this Mr. [...] had been and related the experience. Mr. Copeland was so impressed with the good work you have been doing and said he believed in psychic phenomena and always knew that the [1061]'s were crazy. Mr. C. must have been favorably impressed for while [619] was away we rec'd several telephone calls from Mr. [...] [[1545]'s husband], not knowing the reason for the calls. After [619] came back and called Mr. [...] [[1545]'s husband] he found out that Mr. Copeland had called Mr. [...] [[1545]'s husband] long distance to have him get more information regarding the man in Virginia Beach... We never know thru what means or methods help can come to people."
