EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, this body hasn't many
conditions that are abnormal. Most of them are caused by the
general debility of the whole system, and those properties
that would rebuild the general health of the individual would
add to the whole system in such a manner as to help or assist
most of the conditions as found in this body. There are many
that have to do with the general system. Some specific
condition, as those in the cuticle, have to do with the
circulation, and in such a manner have they become a part as
it were of the system, for the system has so taken on the
condition as to reproduce in the system some of the
conditions. This doesn't mean that they are entirely
malignant in nature, but they are so seated in the body
itself as to become as it were a part of the body. The body
is inclined to be anaemic in its action of the circulation;
that is the blood is watery, as it were, or carries not the
consistency sufficient to make the body resist destructive
forces throughout. The red blood corpuscles are deficient,
as well as the white, yet the resistive force in the white is
very good, even better than the rebuilding through the red
blood forces. The nervous system is shattered in a way that
causes non-resistance from sympathetic forces whatever. The
body becoming only sensitive to the cerebrospinal nervous
sensitive forces over the body so far as the physical and
exterior forces are concerned, from sympathy of the
refractory centers which are controlled thereby, as well as
the organs of the system that are under the control of the
sympathetic system, in that they function with the
involuntary muscular system. The functioning of the organs
we find through the brain forces; it is rather of the
determination to do to and for self, regardless of the
expression of sympathy or excitement expressed by any outside
force. The functioning of the liver is not as good as it
should be, for we have much through the functioning that
shows the inactivity of the liver in its proper manner, the
same as sympathetically expressed to the kidneys and to the
functioning of the organs of the pelvis itself in the body.
The condition through the intestinal tract that has worried
the body from time to time is produced from the same
condition as exists in the liver, or the non-functioning of
the liver causes the condition through the intestinal tract,
and at times the condition in the intestinal tract, - that is
some time back, - the beginning of the troubles with the
liver itself. That of the capillary circulation and the
emunctories, where we find the abrasions that come and show
in the cuticle, also is from bacilla that has been carried in
the system, and the system attempting to discharge and to
alleviate or to expel from the system these conditions, they
break and form in themselves the condition as we have given
here, producing a scaly condition to the cuticle itself. We
would give to this system those properties that would assist
the conditions that exist in the cuticle, and also those that
would give the proper incentives to the body, or to the
blood supply, and build the body up to meet and combat with
the forces in the system. There would be many things that
would assist in various ways. We would give this into the
system; Wyeth's Iron & Wine, which should be taken as a tonic
for the blood forces. For the stiffness that shows at the
joints we would give separate and distinct treatments. We
would make a compound for the abrasions of this; rendered hog
fat, mixed with equal parts of sulphur, with 20% of a
solution of Plantain Tea. This would be rubbed on the
affected parts night and morning. For the joints, - that is
the arms, knees and across the hips, we would rub these parts
well with bi-carbonate of soda, - almost a saturated
solution, and heat salt to drive this into the system, so
that it will produce lacterial forces to center about the
joints and ends of the ligaments, so as to produce better
activity to those parts of the body. This will only assist
this body to regain its equilibrium. Plantain Tea is made by
the reduction of the plant itself in distilled or rain water,
boiled, 6 ounces into 1 quart of water until it is reduced to
1/2 pint. This would be better in this solution in making
the application to the affected parts. Do that.
(Q) The Doctors claim that this body has eczema; what do you
call it?
(A) (Repeating question) We have given you the conditions
as they exist.
(Q) This body is also short of breath, and has trouble in
that way.
(A) (Repeating question) Pressure of the conditions in the
liver on the diaphragm over the lungs produces the shortening
of the breath. We have given the conditions that exist in
the liver, and this will be relieved by some of the blood
forces being removed from this, changing the hepatic
circulation by this being taken into the system.
(Q) The body wants to know if it will follow this if it will
be permanently cured, or not, or will only improve?
(A) (Repeating question) We have given the conditions for
an improvement and assistance to the body. They will relieve
the conditions to an extent. They have been malignant, as we
have given, in the system, and parts will remain in the
system.
(Q) The body thinks it has throat and lung trouble. What
causes that, if he has any such trouble?
(A) (Repeating question) The condition of the body and
throat and lungs we have given, and the conditions we have
given describe the conditions that exist in the body, and
with this that we have given it will assist the body. Follow
the lines that we have given if we would bring an improvement
to this body. We are through.
Now, Mr. Cayce, you will forget all about this reading you
have given. You are feeling fine and all the organs of your
body function properly. Now, you will wake up in two minutes
just feeling fine and all right, and absolutely free from any
headache.
