This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the home of David E. Kahn, 44 West 77th St., Apt. 14-W, New York City, this 16th day of April, 1936, in accordance with request made by the parents through a relative and friend, Mr. Albert Weiner, new Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Messrs. David E. Kahn and Nathan S. Sachs.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Albert Weiner, Nathan Sachs, Wm. Goldman, David E. Kahn, and Drs. Lucien Warner and Moses Benmosche (psychologist and physician).

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, those conditions that surround the body.
2. In giving that as we find might be helpful in these conditions, many varied surroundings should be taken into consideration.
3. While these conditions apparently in themselves are both psychological or psychopathic AND pathological, the causes, the reasons and the treatments for, and the effects upon ALL should be considered; when too oft these are looked upon rather as being a hardship, a cross for those about the body, with little opportunity for the physical or mental development of such a body.
4. Then, as to the pathological conditions that exist - and how these may even under their existent conditions be made to become more effective in their reactions, or to give the mind, the soul of the body-entity itself, an opportunity for expression or manifestation in this material experience:
5. We find that there is little proper coordination, and that soon must develop from this incoordination the inability for the mental and physical forces to become either self-sustaining or entirely dependent upon the cares, the attentions of others continually.
6. Then, these become APPARENT problems in the experience of those about the body.
7. As we find, these in the physical or from the pathological standpoint may be aided to that of a helpfulness; as to producing the perfect coordinating mental with the physical forces of the body may depend a great deal upon the desire, the ability of those that have become the channels through which this soul has FOUND expression.
8. So attune themselves in a cooperative unison, in a consecrated, in a spiritual manner, for there being given AGAIN - not of their physical bodies but of their mental, their spiritual selves - the expression of the creative, divine forces.
9. Thus there may be a helpful assistance through the material or physical appliances for producing the proper coordinating forces through the body.
10. As the body-physical IS of energies or electronic forces in itself, there are varied centers throughout the system of a physical body from which, through which, energies are created by the proper coordinant electrical vibratory forces for not only the sustaining but for the creating of those influences that make for the propagation of the own fluids and forces from the glands, the centers of organized activity in a body.
11. Then, those influences from the pathological or material standpoint added to the body in such measures as to give IMPORT to each of the centers along the whole of the system for their PROPER coordinative forces, we may bring help and aid to this body.
12. This COMBINED with the efforts of a life lived, not in word but in act, in truth - by those influences from which the physical sprang - we may bring aid that would be of a helpful influence in the experience of this entity, this soul.
13. Then, with those forces of the low electrical applications carrying elements that act upon the centers of the body through their vibratory forces - not into the system other than in vibratory ways, there may be brought an aidful experience for the body.
14. We would use, then, the Wet Cell Appliance carrying an influence of the low vibrations of Gold in such weakened proportions as to be assimilated, or a minim of the Chloride of Gold solution to an ounce of distilled water; alternated with the iodides or iodine in soluble solution such that the vibration of same may also be carried into the body. These elements given in such a manner, alternately, each day, would be found to be helpful in such experiences.
15. (Q) How should the attachments be made?
    (A) On the one day when the Gold solution is used, the attachments would be: The smaller copper anode would be attached first, to the brachial center. The larger nickel anode, passing through the Gold solution, would be attached last, over the lacteal and umbilicus center.
    On the next day when using the iodine solution (or the single strength of Atomidine), the attachments would be: The smaller copper anode would be attached first, to the axis of the lumbar. The larger nickel anode, passing through the Atomidine, would be attached last, in the lacteal duct area.
    Not more than twenty minutes each day, in the beginning.
    A gentle massage with oil after same (Olive Oil), over the whole of the cerebrospinal system, would be helpful.
    But remember, these are only half a portion.
    The other half is in the sincere meditation, prayer, and LIVING on the part of those that would aid.
16. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. GD's note: Dr. Moses Benmosche was brot in by Mr. Sachs, didn't know child's case at all, but from hearing rdg. described it as a Mongolian case [Down's Syndrome], which Mr. Wiener agreed was right - child looks alright but its mind is complete blank; walks with hands hanging out - no coordination.
