Edgar Cayce Readings, 4128-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body and those conditions as surround same, [4128]. Now, we find there are abnormal conditions for this body. These, as we find, have to do with the effect of disorders produced from gland disorders, and that prevent a normalcy - especially in the assimilations of the body.
These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [4128] we are speaking of:
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find subnormal in the respect of the assimilated forces being improperly acted upon to form, as it were, those divisions that make for resuscitation and development in portions of the system, produced by a disorder that deals with the lacteals of the system. This in part from pressures as exist in the upper dorsal, as well as from glands that do not function with the forces as produce the elements in digestive forces that make for assimilation, creating a vibration in the system that makes for an unbalancing or an incoordination in that as assimilated.
IN THE NERVOUS SYSTEM, here we find rather those of an accentuation in centers where there are connections between the sympathetic and the cerebro-spinal nervous system, so that the accentuations are upon the sympathetic system rather than the cerebro-spinal. This makes for a form of nervousness that does not always act in the same manner; that is, the reactions from impressions as may be received by the body from outside influences. Hence a nervous incoordination exists in responsive forces in the system.
IN THE FUNCTIONING ORGANS THEMSELVES, in brain forces their reactions and their reflections are normal most the time, though reflexes indicate at times that there is a SYMPATHETIC reaction, NOT normal.
In the sensory organism we find responses are well.
Throat, bronchials, lungs, larynx, show a normal condition for the GENERAL effect in body.
Heart's action, as from the form of blood supply, for the age and for the developments, is somewhat subnormal.
Digestive system shows for those disorders as have been indicated.
The thyroids show for a subnormalcy, as do those in the lacteals as make for those reactions with same in digestive system.
Also we find that the spleen's reaction as an organ in the system's functioning, in the blood supply, is subnormal in size and in functioning; though at times there may be seen indications of a pleura or a fullness in the left end or portion of same.
In the liver and hepatic circulation, this shows for the form of disturbances as indicated in non-DEVELOPMENTS in a physical and a mental normalcy; that is, there are periods of conditions when there are little or no excretory action; at others these show for a near normal, but SECRETIONS seem to be at times not as near in accord as when the excretory functioning are subnormal.
The kidneys show for normalcy, though scant in their functioning, due to the low hepatic circulation.
In meeting, then, the needs as we would find for the developments for this body, we would add to the system those of an electrical vibration that will aid in creating a nearer normal balance in the circulatory system, and giving TO the body that impetus necessary for the creating of a more equal balance in the assimilations of the body. These may be materially aided by the addition in small quantities of those of the thyroid extracts, so that same does NOT create too great a stress or strain upon an impoverished circulation - but is GRADUALLY built.
Those vibrations in the electrical forces we would receive through the use of the ULTRA-violet AND the INFRA Red ray. The ultra-violet for the SUPERFICIAL effect, especially upon the lymph and capillary circulation, while those of the Infra would be upon the STRUCTURAL portions of the body. These would be given alternately at least twice each week, and the ultra-violet would be at a greater distance and at shorter period than that of the Infra Red. Beginning with the ultra-violet with a period of one and a half to two minutes, this should be directed upon the spinal column - rather than upon the frontal portion; while those of the Infra would be directed upon the structural portions from the FRONT - or the chest and the extremities, including pelvis.
In the manipulative measures, release those of those centers in which the cerebro-spinal and sympathetic MAKE their junctures, so that there is closer coordination with the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal.
In the matter of the diet, this should be particularly careful, that there are the proper relationships between those that are nerve and blood BUILDING for the body, but keeping an equal balance in those of the acid and non-acids for the system.
In this manner, as we find, we will bring about a better and a nearer NORMAL reaction in this body, [4128]. Ready for questions.
(Q) Is her brain and nervous system normal?
(A) The abnormalcy, as we find, exists in the sympathetics. BRAIN forces are normal. Now, when we have the proper coordinations between sympathetic and cerebro-spinal system, through those centers as have been outlined along the cerebro-spinal system, that are relaxed, and we have the proper vibrations in body as may be aided or added to those centers through the use of the manipulative forces for the distribution of energies created by the electrical vibration, and with the proper assimilations, we will create a normalcy in coordination.
(Q) Just what is the best way to do that adjustive work, and just how?
(A) There is seen that the sympathetic system lies parallel with the cerebro-spinal, making direct connections in centers along the cerebro-spinal system - see? as in the 3rd and 4th cervical, the 5th and 6th cervical, 3rd and 4th dorsal, 9th and 10th dorsal, through the solar plexus region, the 4th lumbar, and the whole brush end - as it were - of the cerebro-spinal system. Now, in the manipulative measures for the creating of coordination, is similar to that of creating a coordination between the circulations in the system, and by the rotary manipulative forces in these particular centers we create for the general nervous system a relaxation that allows coordination TO the cerebro-spinal center through those of the medulla oblongata and through the pineal glands, that extend through the whole system to this center in the 1st and 2nd cervical - or in the axis - see?
(Q) There's no work to be done in the occipital atlantal region?
(A) No work PARTICULARLY, save that in keeping of the axes in the region in a normalcy, see? The circulation, or circulatory movements in centers as indicated, give that of a better distribution, so that IMPULSES as come through sympathetics are not so sudden in their passage into the brain centers for its reaction to the whole of the nerve impulse; for centers of the nervous system - or in the ganglia and ganglions of the body - act with the double impulse through the gray and through the white tissue, to be sure - one as an impulse, the other as a reaction. In the circulatory forces in the centers, these will act as a QUIETING to that as of disturbed waters through the system. The aiding, or the addition of those vibrations of electrical forces are keeping in accord those VIBRATIONS of the body; for Life itself in every atomic force is that as of an electronic energy. In keeping, then, for the superficial in the blood supply, in the keeping of the proper vibrations in the structural supply, and with the manipulative forces, with the digestive forces kept intact, we create an even balance. This of necessity should be as a GROWTH, as a DEVELOPMENT, but we should see in six to eight weeks DECIDED changes for the better.
(Q) Should she be treated oftener than two or three times a week?
(A) We can OVER do as well as under do it! Let the SYSTEM - give not so often that the system does not have an opportunity to RESPOND to that being done! This should be sufficient - may be necessary at periods for an altering of, but two or three times each week should be sufficient. Then, of course, there should be periods of rest or proper time for reactions to take place.
(Q) What dosage of thyroid extract?
(A) These would be very minute in the beginning, in the form from one to three drops - or in the increase, be well to raise dosage then return again. We want the IMPULSE - rather than the drug or the extract reaction. We want the IMPULSE and the SYSTEM to react, see?
(Q) How often?
(A) May be given each day. Then periods of rest with this, to be sure. The IMPULSE is to be created and the system builded. Do that. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

4/04/31 Dr. [2127]'s ltr. to EC:
Edgar Cayce 115 West 35th St., Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce;
I have been very much interested in the reading which you made for [2253] one of Mrs. Anne M. Pope's children at the Rosehill School, Chester Heights Pa. Mrs. Pope also gave me the pamphlet in which you relate the story of your life in its relation to your present work.
Reading these things about you and your work gives me the feeling that you have found the things that many of us have been looking for. I am member of the Society of Friends which as you may know is a religious organization which has stood for more than 250 years for the doctrine of the inner light which simply means that we believe that God speaks to each of us and will reveal his will to us in our own souls if we let him.
I would like very much to have readings for some of my patients and also for my infant daughter who does not seem to be coming along as rapidly as is considered normal. I suppose that if you are limited to two readings a day it is impossible for you to care for all who apply. I should like to know more about you and your work. Very sincerely, Dr. [2127]
4/07/31 EC's ltr. to [4128]'s father:
Dr. [2127] ..., Pa.
Dear Dr. [2127]
I am just in receipt of yours of the 4th, and I appreciate your interest in our efforts to be of service to others. Would it be possible for you to make us a little visit, that we may talk over these matters? Possibly I could give you something of the experience we have had, and that others of your school have had with the phenomena through the years, and in this manner enable you to be of more definite service to those who come to you.
Miss Pope no doubt gave you the address of some of your school who have had experience with the phenomena. I would like very much to be of service for one of your own family, and if it is possible for you to arrange to make a visit we will try to give that information while you are here. I believe there is going to be quite a number that will come to you for treatment. I wonder if you have seen the little boy [146]?
Thanking you for your letter, hoping that you will be able to make us a little visit, and trusting that I may be of service in some way or manner, I am
Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:GD
