[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 3:50 to 4:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Alabama. (Physical & Mental Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1106].

2. As we find, while there are physical disturbances with this body, these arise as much from the mental attitudes - that were in the beginning taken as poses, and have grown to become rather conditions that are of the SELF; or as habits, as requirements, that have taken on those aspects from the MENTAL standpoint that are ALMOST - or at times, and under or in certain environments, become - POSSESSIONS!

3. For in its final analysis, in the physical and mental activities of a body, it - the body - MENTALLY - is continually meeting itself and that it (the body, mentally) has done about CONSTRUCTIVE or creative forces within the body itself.

4. Then, as we find, to meet the needs of the conditions in this body, it must - or will - require that which will enable the body to either BECOME determined within itself to MEET its own self in SPIRITUAL reaction, or such a change of environment that will require the mental and physical reactions of the body to be such as to ENABLE it (the body, mentally AND physically) to INDUCE that within the physical reactions to take possession in the place of, or to replace, those habit-forming conditions in the mental, as to rid the body of these conditions.

5. These, as we find, then, will AID in doing this:

6. Let the environs, in the first, be whereunto that the body will make a study of that which IS expressed or shown in the reading (not only reading but the FEELING AS reading) of the twelfth chapter in Romans, and then the 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th [fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth] chapters of John.

7. And during such periods, or throughout such periods of study, we would take internally a combination of Chloride of Gold and Bromide of Soda. Prepare the two solutions and keep separate, in this manner; in these proportions:

8. Add one (1) grain of Chloride of Gold to one (1) ounce of distilled water. This would be one solution.

9. Add three (3) grains of Bromide of Soda to one (1) ounce of distilled water. This would be the other solution.

10. When taken (which would preferably be of a morning before the meal is eaten), the dosage would be:

1st day: One (1) minim (or drop) of the Gold solution and two (2) minims (drops) of the Soda solution, in half a glass of water.

2nd day: Two (2) minims of the Gold solution and 4 minims of the Soda solution.

3rd day: Three (3) minims of the Gold solution and 6 minims of the Soda solution.

11. Then leave off for three days. Then begin again. Continue in this manner.

12. This will, as we find, AID the body PHYSICALLY to RESPOND MENTALLY to the impressionable forces that are made upon the body through the reading of those texts or portions of writing indicated.

13. If this is done, we will find there CAN be the response - provided the body will DETERMINE it within itself.

14. Do this for a period of thirty-six days, and we will give further instructions.

15. In the diet, let it be regular.

16. Let the body keep the surroundings such that will be in keeping with those things that are DETERMINED within self; to be good FOR something, that there may be the expression of the spirit that is interpreted in the body being the temple of the living God - and hence should, by all right, be kept holy, inviolate, and presented as a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto Him.

17. Then know and realize the truth of those words set forth in the prayer, the meditation of the Master; “Lo, I am with thee always - be NOT afraid; trust in me, for in my Father’s house are the mansions.” Within thine own self are the abilities to meet, to do, to accomplish. DO it!

18. We are through for the present.
