There is at the fifth cervical, a lesion that causes most of
the pressure, that has been brought to bear on this body to
prevent the normal development through many lines for the
betterment of this body, and this pressure reflecting both
nerve and muscular tissue, as the nerve forces course through
the system, and are given the incentives for the development
of the body. This has been the hindrance that has presented
itself. Now, the effect as this has produced on this body
we see manifested in these respects: The blood itself is
very good yet its action being deflected, in many respects,
to prevent the proper distribution to portions of the system,
which we will see when we reach the functioning of the
various organs. The nervous system, as we have given, shows
the action of the deflection at the fifth cervical and
nature (spirit and mental force) through the action of the
sensory organism in attempting to create the perfect
equilibrium has thrown these centers, those tissues that
have made for the physical a very good development, yet with
the disconnection of forces in the organs of the sensory
system, this disconnection of forces is so carried to these
organs themselves that used forces and matters that go to
make up co-ordination in the organs remain rather then being
absorbed through their regular channel, hence the gradual
change that has been effected in themselves and by themselves
according to the cycle of life for the individual organ,
hence the condition of the hearing, of the eyes, the action
of the speech, of feeling and sense of odors to this body.
The development of the blood force to the brain centers
themselves to give the proper growth and development to the
cells of the brain, itself, are being deflected making a
reaction rather to unusual strength to muscular forces, than
strength to the mental and soul forces, as development is
made on this earth plane. The organs, themselves, each as an
individual organ, show or have shown at various stages of
the development of the physical body, the action of these
same conditions in this body through that of the heart
action, only an effect of the condition of the blood, for
we have one above the normal respiratory functioning
producing more to the physical than to the development of
the nervous forces to carry the perfect incentives to the
action of the system in its development, for as we see as
an explanation, as it were, of the condition that exists from
forces in the system the action of all forces makes its
impressions through the sensory system, and that of the
white tissue of the nerve itself, the return impression as
to the action of the force implied, does not on account of
the used energy expressed give just the same action to the
physical force of the body, in other words, the body
understands, yet is not capable of giving the expressions -
so that to the most part, others do not understand that this
body understands.
The physical action of the digestive forces and those through
trunk portions of the body, are very good.
To relieve or to bring perfect force in this body, we would
have to give first, the proper connection between all of
the forces of the Sympathetic and Cerebro Spinal nerve forces
in their action and relieve the condition of congestion or
lesion, which in this case are circular rather than lateral,
and by the gradual expression to the sensory system develop
the whole mental and nerve energy to its proper equilibrium
in this body by heat through vapor locally applied to the
upper dorsal and the whole length of the cervical region,
and by the adjustments by manipulation, these segments and
ends about this portion of the body and allow the natural
forces to again make the connection necessary to produce the
perfect co-ordinating forces within this body. These we see
could be applied or found in such a place as that in
Still-Hildreth Sanitarium, Macon, Missouri. Now these as we
have given will give the proper condition to make a perfect
development of the body, when they are properly given, and
they would be properly given here. It should not take more
than six months for the condition to be such as the normal
development would begin its natural growth. There will be
some sick nausea spells to this body from change of heart
action and forces in the treatment, but these must come, if
we would have the perfect development to come to the physical
to give to the mental and spiritual forces, their development
here, that is, on this plane, for they must build through
proper channels, the flow of tissue that causes a perfect
development to reach all through the sensory system. Do that
as we have given.
(Q) Mr. Cayce, of how long standing is this condition and
what caused it?
(A) It was caused in times back, you see, and was the effect
of bacilli as carried in the system at times and settled
about these segments producing the hardening condition until
the extra growth began and prevented the proper development,
hence that of the circular rather than the lateral lesion,
hence the necessity of the vapor heat to give the proper
adjustments to this body as we have given. Treat them at
this place as this is only place for this treatment. We
are through.

was killed in an accident in April 1934.
