This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 4th day of October, 1939, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [2000], Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions which may be submitted, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes
3. As we find, conditions are improved considerably from that as we have had here before.
4. There needs only to be the continuation of those applications in full as have been indicated or suggested.
5. The toxic poisons, as indicated through the neuritic pains, are EFFECTS. These are not causes, - but arise from the sources of infection through the alimentary canal; especially in the caecum and that area of the system.
6. Then, there needs to be sufficient of the colonic irrigations, and the manipulations, to rid the system entirely of these toxic forces, - and these conditions will disappear.
7. After these have been eliminated, if the body will use the Yellow Saffron Tea (American Saffron) as a drink about three times a week, we will find that it will aid in keeping better influences through the alimentary canal.
8. Do that.
9. We are through with this Reading.

REPORTS

1. 10/10/39 Mr. [2000]'s ltr. to EC:
   ..., Mass.
   Mr. Edgar Cayce Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc. Virginia Beach, Virginia
   Dear Mr. Cayce:
   Thank you for the reading appointment [Life Reading - 2000-3] which is suitable for me.
   My neuritis trouble has almost vanished, and I feel that my physical condition will be normal in a short time.
   I have been a vegetarian for the last fourteen years, and I have been taking the beef juice as a medicine, and I am going to continue the instructions for another fourteen days, after which time I believe I will be completely well. Do you think it is necessary to continue the beef juice after stopping the treatment?
   In regard to questions during the reading, I feel I need not ask questions for I will receive what is necessary for me without asking.
   Thanking you for your very, very kind spirit and may Christ always overshadow your life and activity.
   Sincerely yours, [2000]

   INDIVIDUAL CASE REPORT - [2000]
   Date of Reading: September 13th Case No.: 2000-1 and and October 4, 1939. 2000-2.
   (PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS CAREFULLY)
   (1) In your opinion did the analysis of the Reading cover the condition? Yes.
   (2) Give symptoms of condition described correctly? Toxic condition which effected the respiratory organ and heart. (3) What was the physician's analysis of this condition? Heart trouble; clot in coronary vein.
   (4) Have the suggestions given in the Reading been followed exactly as outlined? Yes.
   (5) For how long? Six weeks.
   (6) Describe the extent to which improvements have resulted? I am as I was before I became ill, but my left arm is very week and subject to pains; I am still subject to occasional chronic headache and stiff neck which I have had for over 15 years.
   (7) Comment. In my estimation the diagnosis which Mr. Cayce gave without the slightest hint on our part, is really marvelous; he hits the point, and in following the directions, within four weeks, I had very great relief and the improvement continued.
   But I believe the cause is not physical alone. There are other factors which cannot be dealt with physically. It is my own problem to master the body in its triple aspects, that is emotionally, mentally as well as physically. Aside from these, I believe thoroughly that we a have a replica of the physical body through which the Life energy fuses itself into the physical, and this etheric body is not functioning properly because of the lack of the proper sunshine and atmospheric conditions. There are other factors which are mysterious in themselves which have an effect on the body, for I have carefully observed that so far the external condition is concerned they are the same, but the body feels very comfortable for the time being and then changes into restlessness without any external cause whatsoever.
   "Man is not man yet! He is still a subject being" to many mysterious and diverse forces until such time when we are completely enlightened of the laws of these forces and have mastered them. It seems to me perfect health cannot be gained, also some may share it naturally.
