Now, we find there are conditions that are abnormal to the
physical forces of this body, [
3969] we are speaking of.
In considering the conditions that exist with the physical
forces of this body, well were those conditions understood
that show the relation between the physical, the material,
the spiritual and the soul forces of a body. Well are
many of the truths that would be well for mankind to
learn exhibited in this body, for while the forces are one
in normal application toward life; yet, as exhibited or
manifested, there may be such strains brought to bear upon
the various elements that go to make up that through which
the various portions of the entity function, until there is
produced improper coordination between same; yet the physical
body not far or greatly disarranged, or diseased, while the
mental or the intellectual may be as manifested here, in
accord, yet unable to fully cooperate with the physical
functioning of the system, where the soul becomes tired,
while yet the spiritual urges on. These, then, have been
classified by man under various heads, not wholly yet
understood by many, as pathological, psychological, and the
variations between same, as of the incapacitation of physical
reactions. So, with these, we may see how is this body the
conditions exist. These, then, are the manners as we find
with this body, [
3969] we are speaking of.
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this full in many respects. TOO full
in other respects; especially when the disintegration of used
materials in the physical body is considered, or the body not
able to supply that which brings recuperative, resuscitating
forces to the use of the body through that assimilated by
the system, under the existent conditions. The elements,
constituents of the blood itself, especially in a division
of the hemoglobin, show the lack of proper cellular forces to
produce plasmatic cellular units of plasm in system. Now one
would say, what does this mean? Here: We find, as will be
seen, that the strains on centers in system have made such
inroads as to prevent the proper coordinating of the division
of that assimilated to supply this portion of rebuilding in
the system.
IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, in reaction most of the trouble is
manifested here. The nature of same produces or brings about
this. While the basis or the first beginning of same is NOT
of that nature primarily. Rather of gland. In the nerve
system as considered at the present, or present existent
conditions, this we find existent:
Necessary for the producing of nominal rest of functioning
portions of sympathetic nerve system, to bring subjugation,
or hypnosis, or subjectiveness to the nominal centers of
cerebro-spinal system. Hence this naturally, within itself,
the detrimental condition toward the proper re-inhibition or
the resuscitation of proper coordination between the forces
of the entity of this body. In the reaction as produced in
nerve system, this the basis of the condition. In the glands
in the system, there the lack of - or, through inhibitive or
prenatal forces, a weakness that is shown in the action of
tissue in the nerve itself as it manifests, and the condition
existent is a reflection of that incapacity of system to
divide or devise from the system through that of assimilated
and the blood building plasma to supply that necessary for
this action in sympathetic and coordinating system, which
occurs through the action of the lyden [leydig] gland with
that of the pineal, in its recurrence to bring forces along
those of the sympathetics coordinating with cerebro-spinal
centers. Now these, as seen then, a reflex - or an
affectation from an existent condition. The basis, the
seat of the soul, then, in that of the lyden gland, with the
pineal reaction in the system, and this the activity that
brings about psychological conditions. Hence when there is
reaction in this body, it becomes that of the body turned
inward toward the ego, or self, and self-pity, condemnation,
and the inability to return same in outward activity; or,
as has been given, in the living physical force we find the
reversing of the body toward that of what has been termed
deterioration, which means in the end REBUILDING; and will
continue to bring deterioration unless that is added to the
system that will bring about nominal impulse and the ability
of the system to replenish within that necessary force to
overcome these conditions from the physical sense, and add
to the self that sufficient to carry on nominally.
IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, these very
good, as may be seen, even from the existent condition in
the body, from the description as of the body more soul sick
than physical; yet physical conditions are existent, or those
conditions that are within the body such as may be aided,
through physical and MENTAL means, to bring about the better
cooperation, coordination, throughout this body of [
3969].
Then, add to that vibration of the body that which will
bring sufficient in the system first to be able to leave
off that which is gradually bringing deterioration to the
sensibilities of nerve reflex. This may be added in that of
electrical forces, for nerve reflexes are the electric system
of the human body; with these carry those properties that
will build in the glands' reaction that which will bring
resuscitation to the lyden [leydig] and pineal glands,
and thus build up that which the body needs through the
assimilation as takes place for replenishing the cellular
force from blood supply. This will be found in the
Radio-Active Appliance with that of the alternated forces of
Gold (Chloride) and of muriated Iron. These would be added
through the battery appliance, carried to the umbilican
center and radiated to the extremities, through wrist and
ankle - see? This should be added to the system at least two
hours each day when the body is ready to retire. When using
the gold, first begin by applying the positive to the wrist.
When using the iron, apply the positive to the ankle. The
NEXT time, the GOLD is applied to the ankle. Continue
to reverse these in each application. Also give those
manipulations that will bring about the correction of
those subligations as exist in various centers along the
cerebro-spinal system, especially those in the cervical
and coccyx.
In the activities of the body, when sufficient vibration has
been accorded through the Radio-Active forces to eliminate,
or almost eliminate the taking of the hypnotic or narcotic,
THEN we would begin with the mental reaction.
Keep as much cheery company about the body as possible, and
as far from thoughts of self as possible. Bring the body
nearer in contact with the necessity of exercising self
physically and mentally for the aid of others. Ready for
questions. The reaction of the vibratory forces should
in three to four weeks prevent the use of the hypnotic or
narcotic forces for body. Then the changes may come in
location or place, but begin with the manipulations at
the same time the vibratory forces are given to body.
(Q) What proportion of the gold and what proportion of the
iron?
(A) That of fifteen (15) grains to ten (10) ounces distilled
water, in both cases.
(Q) Where would the body go to get this treatment?
(A) Where it is! These may be applied by anyone to the body
in the way and manner as has been outlined.
(Q) Any further advise for this body?
(A) Do that as we have given, if we would bring about the
full cooperation and understanding of the physical, mental
and spiritual forces of the body. We are through for the
present.
REPORTS
9/05/28 EC's letter to Morton H. Blumenthal: "This man -
Mr. [
3969] - who is here at the time - My! If we only had
the institution ready now! It's certainly quite a pitiful
case. Of course there have been many cases very similar.
Several we have had under the observation of the readings.
Those that were given just what was suggested in the reading
have gotten well. Those that were not able to get that have
gone mad, or soon met a sudden death. If the place was open,
why he would be right there. Quite an influential man,
I understand - and a man with a great deal of dollars and
cents; but they mean nothing whatever in this poor man's life
at present. But it's a case that requires a place where it
can be looked after every day, to do any good."
7/19/40 HLC's letter to Mr. Rice:
Mr. C. M. Rice,

no report on this case, and are anxious to close our files
on it. I'd appreciate it if you would fill out the enclosed
report form, so far as you are able, and return it to us. If
the Reading was never followed we would like to know this and
have it a recorded record in his folder. I'd appreciate your
cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely, Hugh Lynn Cayce, Manager HLC:GD

8/17/49 Report by his sister-in-law, [
1424]: "His wife, my
husband's sister, daughter of a minister, very orthodox, and
being soul-sick because her husband sought escape from the
home, tore up the reading and would not agree to do anything
about it. She has since died and sends messages from the
spirit world that she is sorry. My brother-in-law, [
3969],
is still living in ... [
3969] has more money than he knows
what to do with, but his family has arranged it so that he
can't give it away in big lumps as he has been trying to do
for years. He is perfectly normal in many ways, apparently.
His illness is an escape mechanism - he admitted this to me
shortly after he had the reading from EC."
