Edgar Cayce Readings, 1371-2

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before.
As we find, while there is not a great deal of change, there are periods when there is a better coordination between the cerebrospinal and the sympathetic reactions in the nervous system.
There are periods of greater quietness; and others when there appears to be those conditions that become as periods when there is little to be done for the reactions.
As we find, however, as has been indicated, this will require persistence and patience - and the keeping up of those applications which will produce in the nerve reflexes and nerve activities that which will so stimulate the circulation, through the coordinating forces of the body, as to overcome those tendencies when there have been adhesions - that will prevent these reactions.
These are not so much in the form of lesions either to the centers in the reflexes from the cerebrospinal center or brain, nor are they as severe in those areas where there are the connections between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic in those areas of the lacteal ducts and the brush end of the cerebrospinal system.
Keep, then, the applications as indicated.
We would also give the positive, yet very direct but GENTLE suggestions AS the body is losing itself in sleep. This will make the impressions upon the unconscious and superconscious self as to make for the overcoming of these periods of great agitation or irritation.
It will require that this be a persistent experience; else there may be little gained from the application of such suggestions.
At such a period it would be well for the right hand of the one making the suggestion to be placed upon the area just below the liver, on the right side; the left hand just opposite on the back - the 9th dorsal or solar plexus center.
This gently done, and yet every positively done, will aid also in bringing the better reactions through the applications of those vibrations that arise from the low electrical forces work with the body.
Do these.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Why is her sex part developed normally for her age and other parts not?
(A) Because of the very conditions described - the tendency for adhesions. Not so much lesions in those areas from which impulses are received as in the reaction between the glandular forces of the body, that work with the activities as related to the sensory forces from which sex influences arises.
Hence, as has been indicated, the vibration from suggestions as well as the use of the hand as a magnetic reaction will make for the quieting and the bringing of a better normal reaction.
(Q) How may mother cope with this condition?
(A) Just as has been indicated.
(Q) Is she giving her treatments correctly?
(A) These are very good, but keep persistent and the more prayerful when these are administered.
In making the suggestions as the body is losing itself in sleep or slumber, make these not for that as would be directed by the mother in that as SHE would like for the body to be, but that the body may build that purpose, may FILL that purpose for which it entered in this experience, in the way, the manner, the directing forces of divine influence may act with the bodily forces of [1371].
(Q) Would a Life Reading help in any way in her future treatments?
(A) A little later it may. But there must be first the consciousness aroused not only in those administering the treatments but within the body-forces as to the fact that there is a purpose for its experience in this sojourn. Then as to the nature and why and when, through a Life Reading given, will become more helpful in the experience.
(Q) Would an X-Ray show these pressures on the spine?
(A) X-Ray would show those segments that are too close to the lower lumbar and through the lower dorsal.
(Q) Could an operation be performed to relieve those pressures?
(A) An operation would be more detrimental than beneficial, for as we have indicated these are ADHESIONS, NOT lesions.
(Q) Should all the same treatments be continued?
(A) All the same treatments, and these for the magnetic and suggestive force combined.
(Q) Please give a suggestion for the mother to use while giving this treatment?
(A) This had best be formed or put into words by the mother, in the line of that as we have just indicated. Not as the MOTHER desires, but that the mother's mind be as one with the purpose for which the entity [1371] is experiencing these conditions; and that there be fulfilled within the body AND the mind that for which its entrance is being experience.
Keep rather for self in that attitude as may be the manner of preparation for the giving of the magnetic and suggestive treatment, in this frame of mind; but in thy own words express same:
"FATHER, GOD, IN THY MERCY, IN THY LOVE, I COME SEEKING TO BE THAT CHANNEL THROUGH WHICH THERE MAY BE GIVEN AT THIS TIME THAT SUGGESTION NECESSARY TO AROUSE THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF THY DIVINE LOVE WITHIN THIS BODY; THAT IT MAY FILL ITS PLACE, ITS PURPOSE FOR ITS ENTRANCE INTO MATERIAL EXPERIENCES AT THIS TIME - ASKING IN THE NAME AND IN THE PURPOSE OF HIM WHO HAS PROMISED THAT WHAT WE ASK, BELIEVING, WE SHALL HAVE.
"LET MY MIND AND MY PURPOSE BE ONE WITH THINE."
We are through with this Reading.

REPORTS

3/22/38 Mr. [333]'s letter to HLC: "Sorry to learn through Mrs. [...] that she is having so much trouble getting Wet Cell supplies. She tells me that Tommy House is no longer with Health Home Remedies. Sorry indeed to hear such news. Had hoped that he could carry on. I wish I could come down there and run it for you, but I suppose if Tommy could not get enough out of it or put enough into it to make a living out of it I couldn't either. I hope that your father is keeping well and not working too hard and God bless you all."
4/07/38 Father's letter: "I am enclosing check for $2.70. Please ship me by return mail solution for Wet Cell Appliance as heretofore ordered from you. It is important I receive the shipment by next Tuesday."
