Dr. Edgar Cayce,
Virginia Beach, Virginia
Dear Dr. Cayce:
I am in receipt of your letter of the 20 of Feb. last and
thank you very much for sending me the reports of two cases
which are indeed very interesting. Whenever you have
anything to report of an interesting nature, I would indeed
be very glad to hear from you.
I am glad that the proposition made by my Company for
supplying ATOMIDINE is satisfactory to you. I would suggest
that as ATOMIDINE is listed in Druggist's Circular [
3/07/33
See Atomidine flier and attached medical reports below]
of which every Druggist has a copy that you tell any of
your friends that have difficulty in getting it to have
their druggist consult this circular or the Schieffelin Trade
list and place the order with Schieffelin & Co. direct or
their Jobbers and the stuff will be obtained in a few days.
In this way the druggist will get acquainted with our product
and finding a demand for it he will take care to have a
supply always on hand.
At present everything is topsy-turvy due to the Banking
situation but I hope things will right themselves in the
near future.
With Kind Regards,
Sincerely Yours, [signed] S. A. Bisey [SAB:HS]
ATOMIDINE IN MEDICINE
Made and Distributed by
SCHIEFFELIN & CO.
Established 1794 - NEW YORK
For Atomidine Company
Mount Vernon, New York
Atomidine is a stable compound of iodine in a saline solution
that liberates the element in an atomic or nascent state
on contact with an excess of solvent, such as the fluids
of the body. No other active medicinal agents are present.
By liberating nascent or atomic iodine, Atomidine furnishes
the organism with this element in such a form that it may
be readily utilized.
The lethal dose of Atomidine in animals is very large, which
accounts for the absence of untoward effects in its clinical
use. Due probably to its rapid absorption and its ready
combination with harmless proteid or other organic compounds
in the body, iodism very rarely occurs even in sensitive
persons.
Atomidine acts beneficially in iodine deficiency diseases,
gastro-intestinal disorders and asthenic conditions. It has
the property of reducing blood-pressure in cases of
hypertension. Atomidine is an efficient diuretic and
urinary antiseptic, acting in either an acid or alkaline
medium.
DOSAGE
Approximately 1/100 grain of iodine is present in one drop
of the solution.
The average dose is 5 to 10 drops in one-half glassful of
cold water, repeated every two or three hours. Frequent
small doses are more effective than larger amounts at less
frequent intervals. When an intensive effect is desired 20
or more drops may be administered over the critical period
and repeated as required.
Atomidine should be diluted only at the time of taking, and
never given after a starchy meal.
It should not be administered in combination with other
drugs.
ATOMIDINE IN DENTISTRY
Atomidine is the remedy of choice wherever a powerful
non-irritating antiseptic and germicide is required.
In post-operative cases, such as tooth extraction, Atomidine
cannot be recommended too highly. It acts as a hemostatic
and is non-escharotic. When applied to the tooth socket in
the pure state there is an immediate blanching of the tissues
with an arrest of hemorrhage. An almost complete freedom
from pain is observed in extraction and oral surgery
operations wherever Atomidine is used as a post-operative
application.
Atomidine stimulates the growth of tissue. Two or three days
after an extraction and the application of Atomidine, the
socket is filled with healthy granulations.
MEDICAL REPORTS ON ATOMIDINE (A TOMI-DINE) [
12/02/82 GD's
note: Case numbers on these Atomidine medical reports
have no relation to case numbers used for the Edgar Cayce
readings. The majority of the listed Atomidine reports were
obtained on patients in foreign countries.]
ATOMIDINE is a scientifically prepared ethical product
of ATOMIC iodine, endorsed and prescribed by many leading
doctors and is the culmination of many years of research
work of Dr. S. A. Bisey, D.Sc. (Hon.), distinguished
scientist and inventor.
Since its discovery in 1914, it has been the first and
foremost ethical preparation of iodine that liberates ATOMIC
iodine upon contact with body fluids. It is NON-POISONOUS,
NON-IRRITATING, STAINLESS, ODORLESS AND A WATER SOLUBLE
COMPOUND, SAFE FOR INTERNAL ADMINISTRATION. ATOMIDINE is
manufactured and distributed by the well known manufacturing
pharmacists, MESSRS. SCHIEFFELIN & CO., OF NEW YORK.
In its early years it was known under various names. During
twelve years of test period and research work it received
endorsement from the medical profession as a recognized
product of high medicinal and scientific value and ONE OF
THE GREATEST CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATERIA MEDICA. This led to
the adoption of its scientific name ATOMIDINE (atomic iodine)
in keeping with medical terminology, by which name it has
been known since 1926.
Thousands of doctors in America and other countries have
prescribed ATOMIDINE and have reported splendid results in
a wide range of diseases. We have in our files many hundreds
of clinical, chemical and case reports, together with
testimonial letters and articles published in medical
journals with clinical testimony supporting the various
claims made for ATOMIDINE. Following are brief excerpts
from typical expressions of the Medical and Dental
professions.
MEDICAL REPORT SHOWS 96% FAVORABLE RESULTS
Report received from 1241 physicians and dentists shows that
out of 18,186 cases of 21 different diseases treated by them,
17,507 (96%) WERE REPORTED WITH FAVORABLE RESULTS thus
proving the efficacy, reliability and sterling merits of
ATOMIDINE.
PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS REPORTS
THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS
"In the ATOMIC FORM, iodine exerts in the system its maximum
of beneficial effect, WITHOUT THE IRRITATING, DEPRESSANT AND
ESCHAROTIC ACTION prominent as by results of the molecular
form-tincture, or salts of iodine." Report #2118.
"ATOMIDINE has given me GRATIFYING RESULTS both through its
external application and internal use. WHY SHOULD I NOT
ENDORSE AND RECOMMEND ATOMIDINE TO ALL?" Report #2258.
"It is the MOST SATISFACTORY GERMICIDE AND ANTISEPTIC that
has ever been produced up-to-date... It has the peculiar
and valuable property of not only sterilizing the ordinary
pus organisms but the Anaerobic type as well. It has the
INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY OF DEEP PENETRATION AND MOST VALUABLE
PROPERTY OF ACTUALLY STIMULATING CELL REPAIR... FIRST AND
FOREMOST a water-soluble iodine. This is ENTIRELY A NEW
ACCOMPLISHMENT IN THE FIELD OF CHEMISTRY... LIBERATING
AS IT DOES THE TRUE ELEMENT IN AN ATOMIC STATE, makes it
possible for the FIRST TIME IN THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE
to utilize the basic element in the purest known form for
INTERNAL ADMINISTRATION." Report #117.
"There is no doubt about the EXCELLENCE OF ATOMIDINE. In
fact I am using it in the treatment of so many different
diseases with such satisfactory results that it seems to
prove to be almost a cure-all. But there is NO ARGUMENT
AGAINST FACTS." Report #2220.
"Many preparations on the market kill disease germs but
play havoc with the body cells. This we find impossible
with ATOMIDINE. IT IS A TRIUMPH OF BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE
AND ONE OF THE GREATEST CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATERIA MEDICA."
SANITARIUM. Report #1942.

"CASE (1) "Had been in a local hospital for seven months with
STREPTOCOCCUS INFECTION. Draining pus from seven incisions.
Prescribed ATOMIDINE. In two months most of the wounds
healed. (2) Severe INFECTION OF TOE NAIL, SEPTIC POISONING
SET IN. Gave ATOMIDINE internally. In four days the
infection was cleared up. (3) LEUCORRHEA DISCHARGE WHICH
HAD RESISTED EVERY FORM OF MEDICINE. Prescribed ATOMIDINE
douches. In two weeks discharge stopped and the female
organs resumed their natural position." Report #206.
"I have prescribed ATOMIDINE in many hundreds of cases as
a PREVENTIVE AND PROPHYLACTIC in periods of epidemics with
marked benefits. As an abortive in infections it has marked
and rapid inhibitory action, proving beyond the least doubt
that IT HAS DECIDED INTERNAL ANTISEPTIC OR GERMICIDAL
ACTION." Report #1945.
"GIVING IT FIRST PLACE, NOT ONLY IN FIRST AID but think of
nothing else when I treat infections. IT IS REALLY
WONDERFUL." Report #193.
ADDITIONAL CLINICAL DATA
There are many conditions, not mentioned here, for which
ATOMIDINE has been used with good results and due to the
fact that it is non-poisonous and non-irritating it has
greatly extended the scope of iodine therapy - particularly
for internal treatment. In our files there are several
medical reports as to the satisfactory use of ATOMIDINE
in - cancer, leprosy, epilepsy and tuberculosis. A
preliminary investigation as to the use of ATOMIDINE in
intramuscular and intravenous injections has been productive
of the most gratifying evidence and further research is
being conducted for the purpose of putting the preparation
in suitable ampules for injection therapy. Further
information or copies of medical reports will be gladly
submitted on request.
ATOMIDINE OINTMENT
The valuable properties of ATOMIDINE are incorporated in
ATOMIDINE ointment which renders them available for topical
applications. ATOMIDINE ointment is a preparation of genuine
therapeutic merit that will meet exacting clinical
requirements. It is penetrative, non-irritating,
emollient, effective in both aerobic and anaerobic
infections, it promotes cell metabolism and repair and
relieves pain and congestion. Physicians will find it of
real value for digital examination of rectum and the female
genitalia, and an excellent palliative for local application
by means of tampon.
MEDICAL REPORTS
"FIRST AND SECOND DEGREE BURNS - healing was rapid. Case
of RINGWORM - removed the itching. Case of BLEPHARITIS -
reduced the swelling and itching of the eyelids." CITY
HOSPITAL Report #1654.
"Three cases of ARTHRITIS treated with ointment are having
very satisfactory results. A RHEUMATIC KNEE GREATLY RELIEVED
and four cases of NEURITIS are yielding to treatment."

Report #128.
"I have had EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE with ATOMIDINE ointment
during the last three years... It exerts a VERY DEEP
PENETRATIVE AND ACTIVE GERMICIDAL EFFECT. It has the
individual and PECULIAR POWER OF RELIEVING LOCAL CONGESTION.
One of the most valuable attributes is its DEFINITE ABILITY
TO STIMULATE THE GROWTH OF TISSUES. I believe it is the MOST
EFFACIOUS PREPARATION in the field of medicine for the
treatment of SUN-BURN. I have seen a number of very severe
cases of SECOND AND THIRD DEGREE BURNS in which the relief
of pain, subsidence of inflammation of the tissues and
activation of Repair is TRULY MOST REMARKABLE." Report
#118.
"Used ointment in the CASE OF A SCALD extending the entire
length of the right leg, 2 to 4 inches wide. The SKIN WAS
ENTIRELY DENUDED. There is a complete healing with natural
epidermis and NO SCAR TISSUE. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A SCALD
OF SUCH AREA AND DEPTH HEAL WITHOUT SCAR TISSUES OR
CONTRACTION." Report #119.
"ATOMIDINE ointment is always used for the treatment of
BURNS, ABRASIONS, CUTS, etc., to the exclusion of all other
ointments as WE FIND IT SUPERIOR TO ANY OTHERS, for its
healing, soothing, antiseptic, and TISSUE BUILDING
QUALITIES." Report #1943.

3/14/33 EC's ltr. to Dr. S. A. Bisey:
Dear Dr. Bisey:-
I was indeed very glad to have yours of the 7th. For a few
days I was in New York the latter part of the week, but
didn't have an opportunity to talk with you or to even phone,
as I was very busy every minute of the time.
One thing that has made it hard for some wholesale people
or jobbers to get hold of Atomidine, I presume, has been
the change made sometime ago in your association with
Schieffelin. However, I hope everything will work out
satisfactorily through the present arrangements.
Of course, for the last few days everything has been
topsy-turvy. The banking situation straightened out, as it
began in your place yesterday I believe, many other places
today, possibly the rest by the end of the week, will
restore much confidence and I trust that in the very near
future we will see business on a better basis, and the
outlook for each and every one much better.
Hoping to see you on my next visit, that you will let us hear
from you when you have the opportunity, and with all good
wishes, I am
Sincerely, [EC] EC:GD

Virginia Beach, Virginia
My Dear Dr. Cayce;
I was glad to know from Mr. Ladd, the club secretary, that
a branch of your E.C. Foundation is being formed in this
city. [See
254-65 in re NY mtg.] I am enclosing a copy of
my letter to him.
You remember that some time ago I suggested to you to open
a branch of your Foundation in this city to get a larger
number of people interested in your work but at that time
the idea did not appeal to you and I am so very glad that
you have now decided to open such a branch here, and you
may depend on my giving you my heartiest co-operation.
You have all along taken a personal interest in bringing
ATOMIDINE to the notice of your friends and I appreciate
it very much I assure you.
Hoping to have the pleasure of meeting you again in the
near future, with Kind Regards
I remain,

Dear Mr. Ladd;
In reply to your letter of the 15th. I was very glad
to learn that a branch of the Cayce Foundation is being
established in this city and I am happy to know that you
have kindly elected me a member of the Foundation.
It would be a very good idea to have either a lunch or
dinner held in honour of Dr. Cayce. Regarding the date
and time any day of the week is usually convenient to me
but I would make it convenient any day or time provided
you let me know a couple of days in advance.
With kind regards and best wishes,
Very Truly Yours, S. A. Bisey. [SAB:HS]
4/25/33 EC's ltr. to Dr. S. A. Bisey:
Dear Dr. Bisey:-
I am in receipt of yours of the 18th, also enclosing copy of
your letter to Mr. Ladd [see R15 above]. I appreciate your
writing me, and I appreciate the attitude you have taken
regarding the attempt there, on the part of my friends, to
to - if possible - interest a sufficient number of those who
have reasons - many who have not been able to put them into
words - for believing help and aid may come to them through
these sources. And for one such as yourself, who has been
gifted by nature - or God, or whoever we choose to call it
- with the knowledge of such things, to join also in such
a movement, of course, brings a great satisfaction that
would be hard to describe to someone else.
Oftentimes I have wished that I might have the opportunity
to work closer with you, for I realize that your experience,
your training, has fitted you for a real leader in a work
of this nature, that may not be found very often in the
experience of but few.
If they are able to arouse sufficient interest to warrant
calling the meeting, and if I am privileged to be present,
I trust I may have the opportunity to talk with you at some
length regarding not only our own personal interests so much,
but rather as to how we may cooperate in being of greater
service to our fellow man.
I would appreciate it a very great deal if you could make an
appointment with Mr. Ladd [Robert Nelson Ladd: Chm. of 1st
A.R.E. Study Group, in Hempstead, L.I., N.Y.] to talk with
him at length. He is very sincere, and a very lovable man.
I don't know whether you have met him in person as yet or
not, but I am sure you will find him very worth while. It is
true that his experience has not been conducive to as broad a
field, possibly, as you and I may feel we have; yet sincerity
in being of service to our fellow man is the first pre-
requisite in being of value to our brothers, and this I'm
sure you will find that he possesses.
Hoping that I may hear from you again, trusting you may have
the opportunity to see Mr. Ladd and any of the rest of our
friends or associates there, and with all good wishes to you
and yours, I am
Ever the same, EC:GD
P.S. Recently I have had quite an unusual experience.
Nothing new, I could possibly say; but I know that you have
had - and possibly have now - associations and connections
with some of the initiates in India. One of the best known
astrologers [Laurie Pratt], and one considered by a great
number throughout the country as an authority on astrological
research and astrological reports, has been kind enough to
submit to me a reading, casting the chart and giving the
report, especially, as in reference to psychic abilities.
I'm wondering if you could put me in touch with, or could
suggest someone of these teachers; not that I want to
checkup, not that I'm questioning what has been given, but
I believe it is said by one in authority, "In the mouth of
two or three witnesses a fact is established."
Please let me hear about this also. EC.

My Dear Dr. Cayce;
I received your letter of the 25th, April last and was very
glad to hear from you.
I endeavored to see Mr. Ladd twice but he happened to be
out when I received his letter of the 9th inst. regarding
the dinner on the 18th. inst. in honour of Mrs. Cayce,
Miss Davis and yourself and I am writing to Mr. Ladd
accepting the invitation and informing him that Mrs. Bisey
and myself will have the pleasure of attending the dinner
and are looking forward to the pleasure of meeting you all
at that time.
It is indeed very kind of you to think so highly about my
psychic gifts and I would always be glad to co-operate and
help a person of your psychic attainments and gifts.
I do hope that your friends will be sufficiently interested
to make it possible for you to open a branch of your
foundation in this city. I will certainly be very happy
to be of any help to you and when you are here I hope you
will be able to appoint a little time so we could get
together and have a heart to heart talk on matters and
subjects in which we are both sincerely interested.
I read with a great deal of interest the [May 1933] bulletin
giving your Astrological Forecast and no doubt your unique
psychic gifts are in conformity with the exalted position
of the planets in your Horoscope. While in India I used
to know some Astrological experts but owing to my continued
stay in this country I have lost touch with them. I know
an Astrologer here who is very capable and trustworthy and
I would be glad to have him verify the positions of the
planets in your Horoscope, and I will endeavor to bring
him to the dinner if he happens to be in town and available.
I will tell you about him further when we meet.
With kindest personal regards and best wishes and looking
forward to meeting you shortly.
I remain, as ever,

THE TRIUMPHANT CAREER OF A HINDESE SCIENTIST
WE HEARTILY CONGRATULATE THE EMINENT HINDESE SCIENTIST,
S. BISEY, UPON HIS COMPLETION OF HALF A CENTURY'S RECORD AS
A SCIENTIST AND INVENTOR. A SELF-MADE MAN, SUNKAR BISEY HAS
SET A NOBLE EXAMPLE WORTHY OF EMULATION BY THE YOUTH OF INDIA
AND OF THE WORLD. HIS STORY DESERVES TO BE KNOWN FAR AND
WIDE. - EDITOR (Haridas T. Muzumdar, Ph.D.)
To The Editor of "India Today and Tomorrow"
20 Vesey Street
New York, N.Y.
Dear Sir:
Permit me to bring to the attention of the readers of your
esteemed paper the following autobiographical sketch of a
humble worker in behalf of Science, Truth and Humanity.
It is fifty years this month of May, 1933, that a certain
incident came into my life that made me turn a new leaf and
resolve to pursue my own career as a scientist and to
endeavor to rise in this world and visit foreign lands,
depending solely on my own efforts rather than to accept
the financial help cheerfully offered by my wealthy father.
And I am happy to say I fulfilled my ambition and met with
a great deal of success in spite of handicaps.
In the year 1883 I was in India at Dhulia, in Bombay
Presidency, where my father was a Civil Judge for the
District. I was then sixteen years of age and attending
High School. My father was indeed very kind to me and
showed me great affection. Being the eldest son, he
naturally wished me to study law and to qualify myself
for a good position in the Judicial Department with his
influence. But, fortunately or unfortunately, my tendencies
were all toward mechanical and scientific work from my
earliest years.
In those days of half a century ago, in India, it was
considered unbecoming for the son of a dignified District
Judge to dabble with mechanics, carpentry and such
craftsmanship and so my father was naturally greatly
disappointed to note my tendencies, although he never
interfered with my experimental work nor declined to give me
money to purchase materials and things I needed.
Sir R. V. Subnis, Ex-Prime Minister of Kolhapur State, was
then Head Master of The Dhulia High School, and being an
old friend of my father, used to visit us often. Whilst
I was studying in his High School at Dhulia, he gave me
the Scientific American to read, knowing my tendencies
toward scientific subjects he once presented me with a
small chemical apparatus to carry on some interesting
experiments with it. Reading of the Scientific American,
and particularly the interesting account of the Late
Thomas A. Edison's inventions, filled me with the ambitious
desire of becoming a scientist like him and some day go to
America and meet him. In fact, I began to look upon America
as my dreamland. Mr. Subnis admired my unusual scientific
tendencies and often encouraged me.
In the month of May, 1883, fifty years ago, a peculiar
incident took place which I owe my success. One Sunday
morning Mr. Subnis came to consult my father on some matter.
My father then asked me to bring some papers which he had
told me previously to keep ready but my mind being engrossed
with some experimental work, I had altogether forgotten
to carry out his instructions. He was then naturally very
angry with me and blamed me severely in the presence of
Mr. Subnis about my negligence and for wasting my time
doing useless experimental work instead of enjoying the
summer vacation or studying as other boys did. That being
the first time my father had been so angry with me, I was
much hurt.
Mr. Subnis then advised my father to encourage me for my
scientific turn of mind and declared that some day I would
be a renowed scientist and inventor if properly encouraged.
After that my father, believing in Mr. Subnis's advice,
never spoke a harsh word to me and left me alone to carry
out my work.
But my father's blaming me in the presence of my teacher and
showing his dislike for my scientific turn of mind had a
different effect on my sensitiveness. I went to my mother
and cried bitterly. I did not realize then that my revered
father meant well. I misjudged him instead and thought that
as I often troubled him for giving me money for my
experimental work he disliked such work. In the heat of the
moment I took an oath before my mother never to ask any
more financial aid from my father for my scientific work
and made a firm resolution to make my own way in scientific
research, to visit America and to meet Mr. Edison some day.
I resolved always to rely on my own work for finances. That
day I turned a new leaf in my life and gladly stuck to my
resolution ever since through thick and thin, for the last
half century and fulfilled my ambition.
I begged my mother not to tell my father about my resolution,
as I did not wish to hurt his feelings. For the first five
or six years, it was difficult for me to meet expenses and
many a time I had to go without luncheon at school to save
money out of my weekly allowance. After finishing high
school I entered the Government Service to earn funds to
carry out my scientific work. When I made some little
success with it, and began to attract public attention, my
father was happy and expressed a desire to send me to England
to learn some technical art or science.
I was then obliged to remind him of the incident which took
place some seven years previously and respectfully declined
his kind offer. He was surprised and felt sorry about it,
and tried to persuade me to break my boyish resolution and
accept the offer of his help. But I requested him to
overlook my disobedience and not tempt me with his offer.
I was feeling happy in what I was doing and felt justly proud
of my resolution which was teaching me a valuable lesson in
self-reliance while setting an example for some of the sons
of rich men to follow. My father understood my attitude and
felt happy and proud about it.
My father passed away in 1893. In 1895 I accepted an offer
to go to England where I spent six months and exhibited some
of my scientific optical illusions invented by me and many
English papers spoke highly about them. In 1897 H. H.
Sayajirao, Gaikwar of Baroda, gave me a valuable present for
my scientific work at a special Durbar. In 1898 I won a
prize in England completing with several European inventors
for inventing an automatic weighing machine. It being the
first time for a Hindu to win such a competition in England,
I was hailed as an inventive genius. Several prominent
citizens of Bombay then urged me to resign my Government
service and go to England as a pioneer Hindu inventor and
scientist to prove to the world that the Hindus did not lack
inventive faculty.
My mother strongly opposed my going abroad. She could not
understand why I should forsake a comfortable home, a young
wife and a son and a promising Government position to under-
take a risky job in foreign lands. But I realized the
importance of what seemed to me a national mission.
I gladly answered the call to do my duty to my motherland,
and came to England in 1899 and since then have been carrying
out such work.
For sixteen years I carried out my work in England in which
the late Hon. Dadabhai Naoroji, Sir Ratan Tata and Hon.
G. K. Gokhale took a keen interest. I invented type-casting
machines on original lines and as I solved some intricate
problems unsolved by European inventors I was called the
Edison of India. In 1908 I was honoured by the Indian
National Industrial Congress at Madras for my scientific
work. Since 1916 I have been permanently established in
this country. I completed the type-casting machines.
The Scientific American published an illustrated article
about these machines in August, 1917, and the Inland Printer
and other technical papers also published illustrated
articles.
Besides the type-casting machines I put on the market an
iodine compound known as Atomidine (atomic iodine). It is
acknowledged to be the only water soluble, non-poisonous,
non-irritating, odorless compound of iodine known to science
that has also the unique property of helping the growth of
healthy tissue. It is the result of ten years of my research
work and is prescribed by thousands of physicians and
dentists in this country and abroad. When in December, 1930,
the late Thomas A. Edison granted me a special interview and
presented me with an autographed photograph I felt that I had
fulfilled my ambitions completely.
Among my several handicaps I was a native of India and my
Hindu race was considered backward in science and invention.
In fact, the prevalent impression was that the inventive
faculty was not a natural heritage of the Hindu race, an
erroneous impression which my work considerably helped to
remove. I had to carry out all my work in foreign lands
with scanty capital and meantime I had to support my wife
and children also in foreign lands.
Like other inventors, I had my share of uphill work, but
being in foreign lands it was even harder. Now, after 50
years' labors, I am well established in this country, the
land of my dreams, my work is known internationally, and
my name referred to in the "Who's Who in America" and other
reference books. I feel, therefore, justly proud of my
record as a self-made man coming from 'backward' India and
establishing as a scientist and inventor in this leading
land of the world.
In 1883 while in India, I used to read the interesting
account of the opening of the new Brooklyn Bridge, the
first to connect Brooklyn with New York. This year -
this very month of May, they are commemorating the fiftieth
anniversary of that Bridge on a lavish scale and I am also
commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the completion
of the record of my struggle, in my own humble way. As the
fates would have it, there is some sort of similarity between
the two events, happening about the same time. The Brooklyn
Bridge was the first gigantic engineering enterprise of its
kind and met many obstacles, but it succeeded in bringing
Brooklyn so close to New York that it became part of the
great metropolis.
The success of my work as a pioneer in foreign lands was much
to be doubted. There have been many instances of people in
poor circumstances rising to a position in the world through
hard work. But my task was a self-imposed one. I refused
financial help cheerfully offered to me, so people thought
I would soon come to my senses, when I met hard times.
In spite of handicaps I have succeeded in partly bridging
the vast gulf between the East and the West through my work
as a pioneer inventor and scientist of India, and I am very
happy to be established in this, my dream land, America.
Born in Bombay on the 29th of April, 1867, at 4:36 A.M., I
am in my sixty-seventh year. I am thankful to Providence
for having kept me in sound health, for having given me the
courage to stick to my early resolution to fight my way to
success in three continents and for having preserved my life
while crossing the submarine-infested Atlantic three times
during the world war. On one such occasion, I am grateful
to say, in 1918, Providence miraculously saved my life and
that of my wife and children when our steamer in crossing
the Atlantic barely eluded the torpedo fired from a German
submarine. We landed safely at New York on July 4th,
America's Day of Independence.
I am also thankful to my friends in India, in England, in
America and elsewhere, for their kind help and cooperation
toward the fulfillment of my pioneer mission.

Dear Dr. Bisey:
We offer you our sincerest congratulations that you have
at last "arrived" after so long and intense struggles.
That the Scientific American has been such an aid to you is
not for the present staff to be proud of, but it is one of
the heritages which we of the present generation feel most
keenly as an urge to maintain the same high standing the
magazine has always held in the past.
After your work you are indeed fortunate that you can enjoy
the things you desire.

Dear Dr. Cayce;
I received your letter of the 24th. inst. and am glad to know
that I had been of some little service to your humanitarian
work.
If you can get sufficient number of members to use the house
as you have planned, Mrs. Bisey and my self would be glad to
come there on the 12th. or 13th. of June for a week. Please
let me know if it could be arranged so that I could fix the
dates. After I come there I will gladly arrange about the
talk in accordance with your advice.
I am anxious to know whether any thing has been done with
respect to the University matter. Will you kindly inquire
and let me know whether Dr. Carl S. Frischkorn is likely to
be in Norfolk during the period of the Congress? I would
very much like to meet him.
With kind regards and best wishes,

6/15/33 Talk given at Second A.R.E. Congress, Ragged Robin,
Norfolk, Va. by Sunkar Bisey:
LOTUS PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE
Leading to an Universal Religion of Truth, Reason and
Understanding
By Sunkar A. Bisey
"There is nothing higher, more precious or pious than
Knowledge." - Bhagavid-Gita.
"Ye shall know the Truth and Truth shall make thee free."
- Jesus Christ.
It is truly said that knowledge is power and truth opens
the gateway to freedom. During the last half century our
store of knowledge has greatly been enriched by the enormous
strides made by electricity, radio, chemistry, spiritism
and other sciences, the rapid spread of education among
the masses and backward classes, the easy intercourse and
and exchange of views among all the nations of the world,
equality of rights granted to women, freedom of speech and
thought on religious and social subjects and their bearings
on the scientific discoveries in various parts of the world.
The power gained through such knowledge has set even the
orthodox people to take a broader, more enlightened and
charitable view of the teachings of their own as well as
other religions of the world. The blind faith in believing
the teachings of the priests and ministers and their
explanation or version of the deeper meaning of the mystical
writings of their respective religions or philosophies,
is fast dying away and every religion is slowly but steadily
losing its hold even on orthodox people.
There are six principal religions of the world. Three
in the Eastern Hemisphere, namely - the vedants and Hindu
religion; Buddhist and Confucius religion, and in the Western
Hemisphere the Mose or Jewish religion, the Christian and the
Mohammedan religion. The Fatherhood of God and brotherhood
of mankind, universal love, peace, justice, faith and
tolerance were the fundamental principles and cherished
ideals of the above named principal religions as they came
originally from the same fountain source. Although thousands
of years have passed since their foundation, their teachings
have failed to get the desired deep rooting in the minds of
people and owing to their constant fighting with each other
on religious, social and political matters, there is more
money and energy spent in the world today on destructive and
warlike measures than constructive or uplifting ones;
consequently, several nations are at war today and preparing
for more wars.
The great World War is over, but as it was principally fought
among the Christian nations it gave a very rude shock to the
cherished Christian ideals of "Love thy neighbor" and "Thou
shalt not kill" and consequently it has set in motion another
war in the thinking minds as to the truth and value of such
a religion. During the World War regiments received the
blessings in the churches to go to the war to destroy the
enemy - Christians! Several priests and ministers went to
the battle fields with the Bible in one hand and a gun in the
other and made a mockery of Christ's Ideals. It is the
priesthood that thus degenerated the true Christ's religion
and His cherished principles by falling a prey to the
capitalists' offering of gold. Like the Christian religion,
other religions also become more or less degenerate and
most of the people lose faith in them. It is, therefore,
no wonder that earnest thinkers and even some broadminded
priests and ministers of all religions all over the world,
are sincerely endeavoring to find a way to unite all the
principal religions of the world into one universal religion
to oppose the onward march of atheism by unmasking the
eternal truth underlying all the religions and arriving
at a common basis of understanding that will appeal to
common sense, stand to reason and bring real peace and
happiness to the world. Believing that any attempt made
in that direction would be welcomed; I am emboldened to
place my philosophical views before free thinkers and
earnest seekers after the eternal Truth.
One of the vital problems of today is the finding of a
religion that will fit in with the age of reason which
is challenging the old age of faith.
Any philosophy or religion if destined to be universal
and readily acceptable must be based on scientific truth,
must appeal to common sense, and must be free from any
dogmas. To do a thing because you are told or taught
to do so or because others do it, is to do it mechanically
with a hesitating and fettered mind, but to do it because
it appeals to your common sense or because you know why you
are doing it, is to do the same thing intelligently with a
free mind. The main object of my philosophy is to tell you
in a simple way what you should do and why you should do it
to enlighten your soul and achieve the salvation which is
after all the main aim of all the religions and to explain
to you how the laws of karma, destiny, re-incarnation and
duty work out; why some religions differ from others on
certain points and how they were all necessary for the
progress of humanity at different stages of our evolution,
and what really happens after death.
THE NEW ERA
About a couple of centuries ago the whole world was ruled
by kings and despots claiming Divine authority. Gradually
their despotism began to decline and at present many nations
are ruled by representatives of the people and within a few
years the whole world will have republican governments where
the ruling power will belong to the people. Thus despotism
will be replaced by true democracy, men and women will
have equal rights, and everybody will fully enjoy personal
liberty of thought and action. This changing condition
will be brought about by the liberal and free education
and scientific knowledge gained by the masses and their
gradual realization of the eternal truth that is opening
the gateway to freedom. Our old theories and mistakes
or misconstrued ideas about the Hell Fire and the actual
conditions in the Spirit land, have undergone a great
change due to the valuable knowledge gained through the
daring research work carried on by several eminent scientists
all over the world during recent years. The world is now
looking forward to an universal religion of democracy and
deed and not of dogmas and deceit.
THE NEW RACE
The generation about sixty to seventy years ago showed signs
is dissatisfaction towards the orthodox religions and their
dogmas, but not being strong enough to openly bolt away from
their elders and their orthodox views, it outwardly remained
submissive while inwardly its mind was prepared for drastic
reforms and consequently gave birth to the present generation
now about thirty-five to forty years old, which is openly
revolting from the established church, religion, social
customs and conventions. This generation again in its turn
and with a mind less fettered and more prepared for
revolutionary reforms, has been bringing into the world a
new or free race, commencing about one year after the
breaking of the World War, which in turn will be the parents
of the so-called sixth race. Young children belonging to
this free race and now about sixteen to eighteen years of
age are far more intelligent and inquisitive than their
parents at similar age and require to be satisfied with
sound explanation rather than blind faith. In the World
war, - first of its kind in the human history, those that
lost their lives, realized on their awakening in the spirit
world, that they were misled by false religious beliefs and
dogmas and were merely made tools or fodder for guns by the
cunning, power, greedy capitalists under the pretense of
patriotism. So with the spirit of revolt against such
things and desiring to help humanity with the Divine
knowledge, many of them re-incarnated in this world to form
the new free race. Any new philosophy and religion
therefore has to deal with the present and more particularly
with the coming generation, and nothing would satisfy them
unless it has some scientific backing, and appeal to its
common sense and intelligent understanding, and it must also
fit in with the new era. Mere blind faith will not succeed.
The time has arrived for a new Messiah to bring to the world
a common sense, democratic, liberal, scientific, intelligent
and matter-of-fact philosophy and religion free from dogmas,
deceit and Hell bogey.
This is the age of reason which is the highest product of
our evolution. Many scientific men turn agnostic to the
belief in God because He does not measure to their yardstick.
They forget one thing, however, that they can measure
physical things with physical means, but Divine and abstract
things must be measured with a mind clear, unbiased and
impartial. It is necessary to use a powerful microscope
to see the millions of microbes in a drop of water that
are invisible to the naked eye, and so to know the reality
of the Divine knowledge one must concentrate with a clear
mind in deep meditation which acts like a microscope.
Fifty years of my life I have devoted to scientific research,
but the more I carry on my scientific research, but the more
I carry on my scientific work I become convinced in the
reality of a loving God and His Divine wisdom and the chief
sources of my knowledge is in deep meditation on Divine
things. With a pure mind and desire to know the truth to
benefit humanity, answers to my prayers are oftentimes given
to me during meditation or psychic dreaming. When I made
up my mind to write my thoughts on philosophy I also made
up my mind to tell the world the "truth" according to the
light shown to me, without any hesitation or fear of
contradiction or even ridicule.
The Hindu Yogis, thousands of years ago, described this
country as the AMER-LOKA (Everlasting and Blessed Land).
America is truly a melting pot of all races and religions
and blessed with scores of broadminded philanthropists who
have cheerfully and liberally been helping worthy and
charitable institutions, and undertakings with the noble
objects of benefitting humanity and increasing its welfare.
My sixteen years stay in this country and close association
with people engaged in different industrial and commercial
pursuits has convinced me that compared to the European
countries this country is very materialistic, and perhaps
my fate has brought me here from England to publish my
philosophy in this materialistic country to help spiritual
awakening. I hope my frank and common sense philosophy
will prepare the ground for the coming Messiah to bring
the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.
ADAPTING THE SPIRITUAL THOUGHT OF THE EAST TO THE WESTERN
MIND
They say, "East is east and west is west." The east takes
one viewpoint of life and the west takes another viewpoint
of life. Suppose there is a gold mine, - two gold mines,
one in the east and one in the west. The miners work all
day digging gold. Hard work. The eastern man says to
himself, "well, I have worked the whole day, but my luck
wasn't to find the gold; perhaps I will find it tomorrow."
The western man says, "Well, I have looked and haven't found
any gold; what's the use?" The eastern man in happy and
contented. The eastern man's philosophy is that he is in
the world just for a little while. This is a prison life.
You have come here for a certain destiny; certain purpose,
to learn a good lesson and find out your purpose in life.
After that is accomplished you leave the world and go to the
spirit world.
When I was young, about 21 or 22 years of age, in India,
I came in contact with a Yogi who took a kindly interest
in me - took a fancy to me, and I became his disciple.
The Yogis do not take any money. They expect devotion and
sincerity from the disciple. I was prepared to do that and
I was accepted. For six or seven years I worked under him in
doing my daily work or anything of the kind, how to
concentrate the mind, how to meditate, and those kinds of
things. I completed that training. Then in 1896 the
bubonic plague broke out in Bombay, my home town. It was a
very infectious, contagious disease, so terrible and so
contagious that even parents would leave their children
affected by the plague and run away for the sake of their
lives; that has actually happened. So when the plague broke
out, I was in Bombay. The people did not know what to do.
You would find hardly anybody in the town either night or
day. Then my Yogi friend told me, "Here boy, here is one
challenge to prove to the public the power of faith in
yourself, the power of mind over body. Go and work with
those plague-stricken people." I worked with the plague for
two and a half years every day, six or seven hours every
day, in hospitals, in camps, in close contact with
plague-stricken patients - did not take any medicine, did
not have any inoculation. My life was considered in the
danger zone. My faith in that science, Yogi Philosophy,
made my mind confident that I was doing God's work, doing my
duty as a citizen of Bombay with- out receiving any money
and so no harm shall come to me. For two and a half years I
did not take the plague, which was very catching and
dangerous. Why? Because I had confidence in myself and
concentration, meditation and prayer. Then you are safe, no
disease can come to you, no matter how dangerous. In 1899 I
left the plague work and went to England as the pioneer
inventor and scientist of India.
Now, you will ask me how to adapt the eastern methods to
western minds. It is hard because the western mind is
trained in a different way, in a materialistic way. You
are taught that the "Lamb of God has cleansed you from
all sin." It has given to the western mind an easy pardoning
of sins. The eastern mind says, "But you are responsible
for your deeds and no one can save you but your own
redemption and recompenses." The eastern mind is careful
because no one is going to die for his sins. When these
truths are not given you at an early age, it is different.
Therefore, it is very difficult to get to these points. How
to adapt eastern mind to western mind? Teach young children
the art of breathing - another thing the western mind should
do is meditate. The art of breathing and meditation. To
illustrate: If a big bass drum is being beaten at the same
time a violin is being played softly, you hear the drum, but
the music is drowned out by the noise of the drum. Both are
all right in their place. So it is with the inner voice.
You cannot hear it unless all else is stilled. Practise
meditating ten minutes daily - go in secret where you are
not disturbed, quietly try to hear the very faint inner
voice. When you begin to hear the inner voice, and become
more and more spiritualized, then you forget material things.
Consider Mahatma Ghandi - a frail man, not weighing ninety
pounds. The secret of his powers lies in the fact that he
hears the inner voice of conscience. He is sixty-four years
old. I am sixty-seven. He is an old man, hardly much
vitality left. When Ghandi decided to go on his
twenty-one day fast, I told my American friends one thing,
"If you will look at the reports two or three days before
Mahatma Ghandi went into the fast you will find that he did
not go into the fast of his own volition. The inner voice
told him to go into the fast for his people. He could not
refuse. He is not doing anything off-hand, but following
the inner voice of God and consequently he is sure to come
out of the fast triumphantly." And so he did!
I don't think the western mind believes very much in the law
of destiny and duty. Many people think that as you go to
college and take a degree you are assured of a successful
life. Why are there so few successes? Law of karma. The
western people should learn that there are certain things
which are predestined and you are to go through those things
whether you like it or whether you don't like it, but it is
your duty to do the thing to the best of your ability. The
western mind has to learn that philosophy of karma - that
there is a previous life, a present life, and a future life.
Suppose you have about $5000 and you want to take a trip from
here to California. You go to a tourist agent and ask him,
"Well, I want to take a trip to California. I want the trip
to last one year and to visit these different places." He
presents you with a program. You go to Washington for two
or three days, go to Chicago and stay there for three weeks,
and then you start on your further journey. You can't change
this course, which is similar to destiny. But you have a
certain freedom. We should not think that we are perfectly
helpless. Here is the plan of destiny: Begin from here. Go
to Washington - three days in Washington, do such and such
things at Washington; that is also in the plan. But how to
do those things, how to spend the time, how to mix with
people, is up to you. That has nothing to do with the plan.
There is one scope for your freedom of action.
An actor may be presenting the part of a king; another actor
may be presenting the part of a page boy, but that page boy
can do his part with more alacrity than the man who plays the
part of the king. It isn't the part - it is how you play it
that matters. That is the freedom that you have. Supposing
that I spend three days in Washington. Maybe I will do some
nasty things. How to do it is up to me. That is my duty.
How you do the duty is building the karma for the next
incarnation.
The western mind has to learn that there is such a thing as
conscience. Conscience never goes wrong; conscience never
deceives us. You say something tells you you shouldn't do
such a thing, or that such a thing is wrong, or you have a
"hunch". What is that something or "hunch"? It is your
conscience. The inner voice of conscience, not outside of
you, but inside. If you will learn to hear the inner voice
of conscience, you will never do wrong. If your conscience
tells you such and such a thing is right, no matter what
others think, that is right. It is your own conscience that
condemns or condones you. The western mind has yet to learn
the effect of conscience. What is conscience? That is also
another subject that would take me a couple of hours to dwell
upon. ADVERSITY - remember one thing, and I am telling you
from my own experience. I have been away from India for the
last 37 years, have travelled in India, England and America.
I have gone through plenty of uphill work and plenty of
difficulties. If any unfortunate difficulties come to me,
I say, "God, you have sent this thing for my good. So I am
not going to curse You for it. Yes, there is something You
want me to learn from it." You begin to see that if that
thing had not happened, you never would have gotten a
blessing. Every difficulty I have gone through I have gotten
better. It was a blessing in disguise. Never go backward.
I saw the reality of the thing - God's way of doing it.
Consider the new age. This is called the Aquarian age,
which will be in full effect from the year 1975. In that
age the new race is coming and that we call the 6th race.
The children belonging to that race will be very inquisitive.
These children are now about two years old. You will find
those children very, very bright - brighter than their
parents.
Now, why is it that people feared God all these centuries,
and now they don't fear Him? Supposing you have a son three
or four years old. He isn't afraid of anything. When he
grows up, say eight years old to about fourteen years old,
he is taught to obey you and fear punishment for disobeying
you. When the children are eighteen years of age they don't
fear their parents. They begin to love their parents. (We
are eighteen years old, the next race will be grown up -
twenty-one, in the light of spiritual evolution.) The fear
of God - just waiting to catch you or punish you appeals
to the child mind. Do not fear God, but LOVE God. Fear
conscience. Do not fear Death, but fear conscience. The
next race, the 6th race, is coming on earth and will not
be fooled. It will be a matter-of-fact race. It will not
believe in blind faith, but in scientific facts and demand
a new religion of love, freedom from dogmas and
misunderstanding.
I think now I will say a few things about Dr. Cayce's work.
I have known Dr. Cayce and his work for about two years. I
have been an investigator and a scientist for the past 45
years, and have knowledge of the tricks and optical illusions
used by fake mediums. For thirty years I made a certain
observation - with that knowledge I have investigated every
psychic phenomena that came under my observation, and with
that investigating mind I have watched Mr. Cayce, and I am
convinced that he is possessed with that peculiar power which
I call 'self-hypnosis'. His is the first case that has come
into my investigation, and he is O.K. When I say that, my
name is at stake. I am making a public declaration. People
may call me crazy, so you have the privilege right here and
now. I am doing my part, my duty, that is all.
I believe the time will come when the east and west will
not be separate. "East is east and west is west," but when
united they stand for the best!

Mr. Hugh L. Cayce,
Virginia Beach,
Virginia
My dear Mr. Cayce:
I received your letter of the 28th of June last, and was very
glad to know that my various talks and lectures on psychic
and philosophic subjects were liked by the people there. I
did what I could to help the cause which certainly deserves
every encouragement and assistance.
Regarding the manuscript of my work on philosophy, if you
like you may keep the papers with you for a month or so and
read some of the chapters at your weekly meetings at Norfolk
or Virginia Beach and have some discussions. I will
certainly be interested to know the comments and criticisms
without any reserve because I would like to know my
shortcomings and also to know what part is not quite clear
to understand. This may give me an opportunity to improve
upon it.
Thank you very much for all your kind wishes, which myself
and wife very greatly appreciate. My wife liked Virginia
Beach so much that she is contemplating coming there for a
couple of weeks early in September and in that event I may
be able to come there for a few days.
I enclose herewith a check for $15 to cover my membership
fee and also for the reading I had while I was there.
With our kind regards to all of your family and to Gladys
& Mildred Davis, from Mrs. Bisey and myself, I am,
Yours cordially, [signed] S. A. Bisey.
7/10/33 EC's ltr. to Dr. Bisey:
My dear Dr. Bisey:-
Yours of the 6th, with enclosure for the Association, was
received, for which please accept our sincerest thanks.
This is being answered by me, as Hugh Lynn has left with
a group of Boy Scouts for Chicago.
We certainly did enjoy having you and Mrs. Bisey here, and
did appreciate everything you did and have done in behalf of
the Association work. I feel very sure from some of the
letters we have received that there will be quite a number
of individuals in New York who would like to form a group
for a study of the phenomena in one way or another. And
you can be of a great deal of assistance in this direction.
I do not know that it would be plausible or practical to
attempt forming any such groups during the summer months,
but I am sure that by the first or middle of September we
should begin to get them together. That will give you the
opportunity to work out many situations for individuals,
not only being helpful to them but also an aid to you in
furthering some of your ideas.
I just spoke to Miss Mildred about presenting your manuscript
to the group. So far I have not gone over this myself.
However, inasmuch as Hugh Lynn took the car with him, we
are prevented from attending the regular Monday night
meetings. We will try to do this, though, just as early as
possible, and - of course - will be glad to give you the
comments. I will ask Mildred to make notations both for and
against whatever may be said at such meetings.
I'm certainly glad to know that Mrs. Bisey enjoyed the Beach,
and we hope she will follow out the contemplated visit in
early September, for we have found that September and October
are the most beautiful months and seasons here of the whole
year. Of course, after Labor Day (which I believe this time
is the 4th) the prices usually are from ten to twenty-five
percent less than the regular summer rates. This makes it
very satisfactory for most people, especially those who are
not desirous of very large crowds. Please assure her that
should she come we will be very happy to have her come in at
any time, for we all enjoyed knowing her very much.
Thanking you again for your contribution to our work, both
of yourself and your means, assuring you of our appreciation,
with all good wishes to you, Mrs. Bisey and family from all
here, I am
Sincerely, [EC] EC:GD

Dr. Edgar Cayce,
Virginia Beach,
Virginia
Dear Dr. Cayce;
I received your letter and am glad to know that the Powers
are recommending ATOMIDINE to various patients thru your
readings and the patients are benefitted. As asked by you
I have the pleasure of sending you some sample bottles of
ATOMIDINE per separate post.
On the 6th. inst. I entered into a new agreement with
Mr. [
1734] by which he will be entitled to sell my medical
preparation under the name BESLIN exclusively for all
external applications. I have retained the full ownership
and control of the product and Trade-Mark ATOMIDINE to be
used exclusively for internal use, mouth diseases and
other complaints. I am receiving from Mr. [
1734] only
half the amount of my former Royalty and the other half
I must now earn by selling ATOMIDINE solely thru my efforts.
I am therefore trying my best to increase the sale of
ATOMIDINE and I hope that a large circle of my friends
including your good self will help me in this direction.
ATOMIDINE will be sold to the Doctors and the Public for
$1.00 retail for a two ounce package as before. I wish
to help you and your work and I will be glad to send you
one or two dozen bottles of ATOMIDINE on consignment at
50 cents each, that is, very much less than the wholesale
prices. You may sell it for $1.00 or even $1.25 as some
druggists do that will give you a little profit and also
help me out. You may pay for the goods when the stock is
sold. Please let me know whether the idea appeals to you
and if it does I will send you the goods.
Last Saturday and the Saturday before I attended the
meetings which Mr. Ladd called for arranging a programme
about your coming visit to this city. We are going to
meet again next Saturday and I hope by then the plans
will be completed and we will have the pleasure of having
you here once again.
Thank you very much for sending me information about the
treatment of ATOMIDINE suggested thru your readings to
several people. I will keep them on my record.
With kind regards and best wishes,
Yours sincerely, [signed] Dr. S. A. Bisey.
10/19/33 EC's ltr. to Dr. Bisey:
Dear Dr. Bisey:-
I was very glad to hear from you. Ever since you left the
Beach I have been wondering about you, and had intended
writing, but for some reason we just haven't gotten to it.
With a great deal of interest I note what you say as to your
new agreement with Mr. [
1734] regarding the Beslin, also
regarding your handling and controlling Atomidine. I assure
you we will be very glad to help wherever it is possible.
We would be very glad for you to send us a dozen bottles on
consignment, and we will see what arrangements we can make
about same here. We would like to report on this every
thirty days or oftener, if you desire, and remit for what
we have sold. We certainly thank you for the samples you
have sent us.
Dr. Bisey, I appreciate very much the interest you have
manifested by attending the meetings Mr. Ladd has called.
I hope you will be there at the next meeting. And I
appreciate your report. I trust the trip may be arranged,
and that we may be of some service to our fellow man in
New York during the next few weeks.
Hoping to see you soon, and with all good wishes, and regards
from each and every one to you and yours, I am

4/23/34 EC's ltr. to Mr. [
1734]:
My dear Mr. [
1734]-
We are desirous of keeping in touch once in a while with
those whom we feel have had some interest in our undertaking.
Of course, I do not want to burden you or induce you to be
interested in something you have not found of interest in
your experience. But we have had some very interesting
meetings and associations with various groups there in
New York and other places recently, that possibly have
been of some unusual interest to those who ever think
along psychic lines. I would like very much to hear
from you, and to know how things are going with you.
I understand from our friend Dr. Bisey that you are
still carrying on with the Atomidine, and I'm hoping
you are finding it very much worth while. We still
find that the readings suggest the use of Atomidine
for specific conditions, and I do not know of a
single instance where it has not brought a wonderful
report - where used in accordance with the reading
suggestions - and there have been some very unusual
cases, too.
We have had some meetings with one of the most noted
English mediums also recently, and a comparison of readings
[
507-1 and
507-2] was made. This might be of interest to
you. If you would like to see this report, we would be
very glad to send it to you.
Anyway, we would be very glad to hear from you. And with
kindest personal regards to you and yours, I am

DR. DESIDERIUS DE BESZEDITS, M.D.
Coyuca de Catalan, Guerrero, Mexico
Atomidine Company,
Mount Vernon, N.Y., U.S.A.
Gentlemen:
I am in receipt of your kind favor of the 11th. inst. (Air
Mail Copy) for which I wish to thank you most sincerely.
As for the acidity of Atomidine that supposedly makes it
inapplicable for injection purposes, it will not "hold
water" in clinical practise as it is so stated in text
books. About two weeks ago two horses and two dogs, all
of them highly valued animals, got sick with a disease we
could not diagnose; they started trembling, walked slowly
with a staggering gait until they fell unable to stand up
without help. I took two drops of your concentrated
solution of Atomidine to 10 cc of water then mixed it with
equal quantity of 2% solution of hydrochloric acid prepared
in seawater, of this solution at 10 A.M. I have injected 5
cc into the first horse into a large vein protruding all
along the left hand side of the belly. In about two hours
the animal seemed to recuperate but by the night it seemed
very sick again, had fallen and stretched out and was given
up as dead. While in this position I injected (at midnight)
10 cc of the same solution intramuscular, into the inside
surface of one of its hind legs. At about 6 A.M. next
morning we found the horse eating corn. The second horse
recovered in the same manner after three injections of
Atomidine solution without hydrochloric sol. So did the
dogs. I believe these animals either had eaten something
poisonous or were bitten by a scorpion or by our "tarantula"
spider. A few days after I injected 2 cc of the same
solution into a woman having epileptic-like fits; she at
once quieted down, slept for an hour or so and awoke well.
In several hyperacidity cases it gives prompt relief; I have
tried it (5 drops in half a glass of water) on my own self,
it gave instant relief. Just imagine the thousands of tons
of "Bicarbonate de Sodio" that could be substituted by this
Atomidine sol.
I have a case of very bad gastric ulcer; 10 drops of
Atomidine by mouth three times per day and two high enemas
per week (20 drops of the sol. in 2 liters of warm water)
had worked wonders; for the man could not leave his bed,
where he spent most of the day crouching in very sharp pains
during most of the day during three weeks. In two weeks time
I also injected intramuscularly four times 2 cc of the sol.
and the last time I saw him he was completely free of pains,
sitting making baskets in front of his hut.
About 95% of my patients are charity patients I have a great
field to try out Atomidine. As soon as I return home I will
find out in my laboratory just what chemical changes or
reaction happens when Atomidine comes in contract with the
gastric juice, or with the mucous lining. Can you tell me
something on this point? And also what happens (chemical)
when it comes into contract with pus?
50 drops of Atomidine in water 3 times a day stopped
persistent coughing of long standing.
I hope your shipment reaches me soon so I can start it with
my "illustrious" patient here and thanking you again for the
shipment, I beg to remain,
Yours very truly, [signed] Dr. Desiderius de Beszedits

Secretary to Edgar Cayce of the
ASS'N FOR RESEARCH & ENLIGHTENMENT, INC.
Virginia Beach, Virginia
Dear Miss Davis:
I have your letter of the 2nd. inst. and was indeed very
glad to hear from you. Thank you very much for sending
the literature to several friends as mentioned in your
letter and hope it will lead to some business to our
mutual benefit. I would certainly be pleased to send
you goods on consignment and as requested I am sending
per separate post one doz. packages of ATOMIDINE. ATOMIDINE
is also put up in ointment form in very attractive one ounce
jars retailing at 50 cents and I will be glad to supply you
with these on the same terms should you be in a position to
handle same.
I received a circular regarding the Home Health Remedies Co.
and was interested in same. I note that they use ATOMIDINE
in your product IPSAB. Personally I am delighted with it
but I do not consider it as advisable to combine ATOMIDINE
with anything else. ATOMIDINE as it liberates ATOMIC iodine
does not readily combine with other substances.
Lately I have been making good progress in advertising
ATOMIDINE for malaria in the Southern States. Last June
and July about 1,100 doctors were supplied and about 200
have responded and are using ATOMIDINE for malaria with
outstanding success as evidenced by their reports.
Your Health Home Co. might try to sell ATOMIDINE for malaria
in your State as malaria is very prevalent there.
Last year September when Mr. Cayce was in N.Y. in one of
his readings [
358-8] he advised me to introduce ATOMIDINE
in the states of Louisiana and he mentioned the name of some
province or town which I cannot make out and find in the
post office directory, will you kindly refer back to that
reading and see whether you could get further information
about the correct name and let me know at your early
convenience? It might help in my present propaganda work.
I was so sorry I could not accept the position of a trustee
in your association for reasons stated before, however, you
may depend upon my doing anything I possibly can to help the
good cause. If at any time there are any important subjects
on which the Association desires my advice or opinion you
may write to me regarding same without any hesitation and I
would be glad to let you know what inspirations come to me.
I would like to urge you to give your special attention
to the use of ATOMIDINE for feminine hygiene as it can be
safely said there is no other preparation on the market
that is so ideally suited for this purpose. ATOMIDINE
is a most powerful germicide yet harmless to the most
delicate tissues and membranes of the body. I feel sure
that your efforts in this direction will lead to a very
profitable business for yourself and besides you will have
the satisfaction of knowing that you are rendering a real
service to your sex. For this purpose 80 drops of ATOMIDINE
are added to one quart of warm water. Should you be
interested in this particular application of ATOMIDINE
I will gladly send more detailed information as to its
use in a general way or for the treatment of Leucorrhea
and vaginal discharges.
I am enclosing a copy of a report from Dr. Desiderius de
Beszedits [see Par. R38 above] a prominent and influential
physician of Mexico, who is generally interested in ATOMIDINE
and is doing considerable research work in the treatment of
various diseases including leprosy.
With kindest regards to all,
Sincerely yours, [signed] S. A. Bisey
