Edgar Cayce Readings, 4165-1

Time: Unknown.

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now for the conditions we find in this body, the physical has come to the very end of its resistive forces through the ravages of the elements from without and in. To meet and combat with these, we have to apply outside influences that would be of a specific character and nature to deal with the elementary forces within the body, for many portions of the body are involved in the existing conditions, and they have made inroads on the vitality of the body.
We would have the assistance to these forces that are combating with the conditions. Keep those as we are using and apply to the body those of the forces that may be absorbed within the system by massage well in the system, the BALM OF GILEAD along the whole length of the spine, very gently, you see, into the arm pits, into the groin, and about the thyroids; so that the system - the blood supply, may take all these forces and assist to meet the resistance with the conditions as they are arising in the body, that life may be prolonged from time to time by the meeting of these conditions with this.
The stimulus to the body should be only those sufficient to meet each individual need, and by patience and persistence may be helped along with the conditions, - for the vital forces are being used up, burned up, the heart's action becomes dilatory, and the strengthening of the vital fluids must be necessary to give this.
(Q) What nourishment should be given into this body?
(A) WHOLE WHEATS as gruel. ARROWROOT, with a stimulus. These would be the best for the body with the conditions existing. WHOLE WHEAT is rolled, - carrying all the component parts - nothing separated - but made as a gruel, not as cooked, - well - and made then gruel. ARROWROOT with a stimulus of SPIRITUS FRUMENTI burned; that is, the SPIRITUS FRUMENTI burned, of course.
(Q) Mr. Cayce, what brought on these unusual conditions in this body?
(A) It has begun from times back, when the body first made the beginning then first; it was from horse riding and conditions that existed from that, and exposure to the body, and the vital forces now are only paying for those conditions that arose in times back. They are now attacking the whole system throughout.
(Q) Is this trouble showing itself in any one organ more than another?
(A) In the whole system, the blood supply, and the heart forces are the conditions that meet the force; the whole system throughout, and all of the organs themselves are involved, but that of the blood supply and the heart forces are meeting greater forces to be resisted.
(Q) What are the conditions of his lungs?
(A) The same forces as we receive in a system from contamination of blood forces, and that in which the body is not able to receive the vitality necessary by the intaking of carbons in the system; hence the system through these forces gradually burn up the tissue of the body. The lungs themselves at present present a plethora condition of the cells throughout, choking the valve forces through the larynx at times, not of a specific bacilli, but of a debilitated force in the body.
Keep in the air that is breathed in the body more of those elements carrying EUCALYPTOL, or the oil of EUCALYPTUS, with BENZOSOL and HEROIN, and WHITE PINE; that is, place them in the water and boil the water so the steam escapes in the room, that this body breathes - equal parts of each.
(Q) Mr. Cayce, have you anything further to say about this body, or its treatment?
(A) The quantity of HEROIN that would be used with the ounce of this would be TWENTY-SECOND of a grain. This is not oil, but would be mixed with this and heated.
Do as we have given, for the most assistance to this body. Keep the system throughout, so that the elimination through the system will be taken off as much as possible. Only those stimulus as we have given for the system, and that as used. Do that. We are through.
