This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 6th day of January, 1942, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [2644], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mr. [2623].

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

Time of Reading 3:40 to 3:55 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2644].

3. As we find, there is a complexity of disturbances which have prevented the better physical functioning.

4. The resistances are lacking, in the abilities of the body through its assimilating system to create those elements that bring stamina to the nerve system, or to the nerve plasm especially in the extremities. This activity has grown very low.

5. And the administrations of the chemical reacting forces, to produce in the gland forces of the body the over supply, have at times worked rather to the detriment than to the beneficial effects of the body.

6. The sources of those activities that have destroyed the hormones AND some characters of the urea in the body have not been worked upon.

7. In this particular body, as we find, the condition arises from an activity in the liver itself, rather than in the ductless glands in other portions of the body.

8. The extremities as well as the muscular tissue have gradually given way.

9. Yet as we find, if there will be the persistent and consistent applications, there may be gradually the eliminating of the destroyed tissue or life energies and the replacing and rebuilding of same for the activity of the body.

10. But it will require patience, and a long time of watching and taking advantage of the reactions as they come. For, there will need to be such applications as to halt the deteriorating effect being created upon the muscular, the nerve and the tissue fibre, and also those to increase the ability to grow back.

11. Be patient, be persistent, be prayerful; using all the abilities existent toward the helpful, creative influences. And gradually, from time to time, there may be given other helpful forces to aid in meeting the conditions as there is the gradual growing to more of a physical usefulness.

12. Have prepared for this body, then, the Wet Cell Appliance. This should be at least double in strength; that is, not of the water but of the chemicals used in same to create the form of electrical forces, - double the amount of Copper Sulphate, the Zinc, the Acid that is normally used.

13. Use the nickel or the german silver AND the copper plates. Use the Chloride of Gold Solution to be given the body vibratorially, in the proportions of one grain to each ounce of distilled water, - this for at least three charges for the body, see?

14. And the application of the anodes or connections would be as follows:

15. The copper plate would be attached to the lumbar axis, or the 4th lumbar; while the nickel plate - through which the Gold Solution passes vibratorially - would be attached to the umbilical and lacteal duct plexus, or - on this body - four fingers (not the thumb but four fingers) from the navel center to the right, and two fingers up from that point.

16. Make the attachments each day for thirty minutes.

17. Keep the plates very clean, taking all connections from the solution when not in use. Prepare same in the solution, - that is, make the connections at least fifteen minutes before attaching to the body.

18. Renew the Gold Solution every fifteen days. Charge the Appliance every thirty days.

19. Each day following the use of the Appliance we would have a Peanut Oil rub. This would be thorough, not something just hurried through with - but this to be massaged in the spine, over the abdomen and around the limbs.

20. In the diet, - keep much of those foods that are easily assimilated by the body, and those that are rich in Vitamins A, D, B and B-1 especially. Include, then, such as a great deal of citrus fruits - on certain days, and on other days a great deal of whole grain cereals - as the oats, especially, with milk or cream (little sugar); and a great deal of broiled liver. These are not to be taken so as to become obnoxious to the body, but are to supply the greater part of the food values. Egg yolks, and not the white at all, - which may be taken by beating or mashing the hard boiled yolk with a little butter, and even a little mustard or Cayenne, - for this would be the means of adding a stimuli in which the properties of the Gold, through the assimilating and through the activity of the glands, would be a helpful force to the body.

21. After the Appliance has been used for a period covering three charges, then we would give further information.

22. Ready for questions.

23. (Q) Should present treatments be discontinued? (A) If these as we have indicated are to be effective, necessarily discontinued.

24. We are through for the present.

Dear Mr. [2644]:-

Thank you for yours of the 8th - do hope you will give the suggestions a good, honest, fair trial. Of course the condition being of long standing may take a bit of time, might be necessary to check on same, do not know. You will know better than I about that.

Answering your questions from my own experience would be like this:

1- Yes - plenty of water. 2- In moderation. 3- As a food yes, as a beverage no; that is, taken regularly with whole wheat bread or black or brown bread, very slowly, yes. 4- Yes. 5- With out milk or cream, yes. 6- There you will have to use your own discretion. 7- No. 8- Where, too, if you wish to give the suggestion a trial - needs that you follow the diet, but use your own discretion. 9- The information rarely if ever calls any disturbance by a name. You know whether it follows your feelings about same or not, and should be guided by your own feelings in the matter.

Hope these answer you for your own best interests, and do hope you will soon see real help.

Hoping to have been of help, in HIS name

Sincerely, [signed] Edgar Cayce

R3. 1/12/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

I have received your message of love and peace with request to set aside each day a period for meditation and Divine guidance. [1/8/42 See under 2678-1 Background]

I used to do so for many past years trying to find the cosmic help that is so needed in cases of poor health as it is with me and of so many misfortunes through the world today.

Sincerely yours [2644]

R4. 1/14/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virg.

Dear Sir:

All my thanks for your fair and logical answers to my questions of the 8th of this month.

Will start as soon as will receive the appliance.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R5. 1/29/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

This is the 14th day of my treatment and do apply the suggestions in the best of my ability. I don’t know what causes me to be so tired since I did start it but it is such a fatigue that it is impossible to me to do anything without to be exhausted. My teeth too makes me suffer and I wonder if the Wet Appliance as [has?] anything to do with these uncomfortable effects.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

P.S. Is it a history written by a doctor or simply written by me that you like to have on my case and is it of all my troubles since my childhood?

With my thanks [2644]

R6. 2/2/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:

Dear Mr. [2644]:-

Have yours of the 20th - No, you should feel much rested after the use of the appliance, unless there is something else that you are taking or doing other than suggested in the reading, or that has been the experience of the hundreds and hundreds who have used such an appliance. You are not using the metals or the appliance in reverse, are you - but just as was suggested? Don’t keep the appliance on longer than was indicated - 30 minutes.

Would like the report as by your self, your own experience.

Do hope you will soon be feeling much better, if not would like to check up and see what is wrong.

Thanking you

Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce

R7. 2/16/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virg.

Dear Sir,

This is the end of the first month of my treatment and I have to confess that my condition is worse than it were at the beginning. It is I think the massages that tire me so much as it is nearly impossible to touch the back of my neck without pain. I did strain myself some years ago and since that time there is a protuberance on the left side of the neck near the spine and some times I have unbearable headaches during many days. I cannot even lay down on the bed. My bladder and prostate also are in very bad condition and I have not find any available treatment to this day to relieve me of those awful effects whose cause is not easy to determine by the science of medicine. I stop as my arm hurt me too much.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R8. 2/18/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:-

Have yours of the 16th - sorry indeed to hear you are not feeling any better, in fact possibly not so good. Would you care to have a check-up to see what is wrong, if anything, and what might be given, now, or not? Glad to try and do what may, if anything possible can be done.

Do hope for the best for you.

Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce

R9. 2/20/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

Received yours of 18 Febr. Thank you for your prompt answer. I do not understand about the check up proposition.

Please, explain it clearly.

Since I did stop massages on abdomen and neck I do not feel so depressed for the past few days.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R10. 2/23/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:

Dear Mr. [2644]:

Yours of the 20th - often times we give check-up readings to find what the information has to say regards application of that suggested or any changes that may have occurred from some treatment - I merely offered to try this for you if you so desired - with the desire to be helpful if we might - but if you are already feeling better by leaving something off suggested possibly be best to leave as is.

Do hope you will continue to feel better.

Sincerely, [signed] Edgar Cayce

R11. 3/1/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

This 6th week of treatment find me in the same condition as precedently. My abdomen with some pain and constantly gases that upset me seeming caused by the cereals that I eat every morning.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R12. 3/16/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

This is the second month at end. I still do feel the same as before the treatment. The same tiredness of the body and limbs, head and bladder. Concerning the bladder the diet of citrus do not seems to agree very well with my bladder I think that it gives me more acid than usually.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R13. 3/28/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

Two and half months have past since the beginning of your treatment and I must said that it does not look as a success. What you seem to care is the effect of a cause as every doctors did before you. To you it is my nerves and muscles, as to another my stomach to another my rectum and so on ad infinitum. All of you are playing ball with the poor unhappy wretched that we are to you all and it does not matter if the money that you make spend to us so easily deprive a child of what he needs and a wife work like a slave with always some hope that may be there is a being on this earth who will be able to help her husband. Really, with so many years of sad experience I become more convinced that what interest every one is not a brotherly love as expounded so well on paper and by mouth.

My arms and legs are as bad if it is not worse than before. Sometimes I feel so tired that I cannot even go shopping around the neighborhood. My throat with a bad taste that come from the rubbing oil on my body. “I did experience the same effect 4 years ago with the rubbing of a drug on my vertebrae”. My head is like going to burst and my teeth are painful. All those symptoms are not new to me and each time a new treatment produce the same EFFECTS of a CAUSE not yet dianosticed (diagnosed?) and whose seat is in my opinion my bladder which part of my body is disturbing me seriously for many past years. The INFECTION is so rooted that my whole system is disturbed and makes me so nervous and irritable that it is a shame to be alive in such a condition. I know that if my body is cleaned in a right way health will come back to me promptly.

Are you the man to see that point better than so many others before you? Can you prove to me that your PSYCHIC eye and mind are to be trusted more than the physical eye and brain of the doctors?

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R14. 3/31/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:

Dear Mr. [2644]:-

Have yours of the 28th. Do not wonder from what you say of your being discouraged. While the information as has come through me, Mr. [2644] is not a cure-all by any means. During the 40 years have never known a case where any help was promised, that they did that suggested but what that much help at least was experienced. While never apply any of that suggested, if it is done all suggested, no more no less, the help has come. Why you have not responded I do not know. Will be very glad to try and undertake further suggestions for you if you like, but if you are convinced this may not help - then there is little or no use in our undertaking it.

But if you care to try it we will be glad to try and help. Make out a list of questions, and send them on. We will then make an appointment and see what, if anything, may be suggested.

Hoping you may receive the help desired

Sincerely, [signed] Edgar Cayce

R15. 4/7/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

Answering to yours of March 31st which you suggest further test of my case I will submit to what you think is good for my improvement.

You tell me to make a list of QUESTIONS and send them on, but I do not see what you mean by QUESTIONS. Please, make it clear.

My treatment finished on the 15th of April and my condition is the same as I told you on my last letter of the 28th of March although I did follow your suggestions very strictly concerning the wet appliance the oil rubbing and the diet.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R16. 4/9/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:

Dear Mr. [2644]:-

Have yours of the 7th - what I mean by questions: there are evidently things you wish to know about your condition, why this or that hasn’t helped. Of course if you know all there is to know about the trouble, then there is no possibility of the reading helping, but thousands am sure have been helped, and there seems no reason why you shouldn’t - if there is, you possibly know why better than any one else can ever know.

Will be glad to do what we can,

Hoping to be of a help in HIS name

Sincerely, [signed] Edgar Cayce

R17. 4/10/42 [2644]‘s letter:

Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir,

Have yours of the 9th, and thank you for your prompt answer.

It seems that you are shocked by my letter of the past 22d of March. I know it was not nice of my part to write in such a way, but, there are moments when I feel so despondent that I utter such things not knowing what I said. I apologize for it and hope you will forget about.

Contrary to what you think I know nothing about my case and only surmise on it. I have seen many doctors and no one is in accord with another. The last one who did treat me during 3 years could not do better than grafting some glands to my abdomen to give me back some resistance, but, after a year I am in the same condition.

I trust you and think that you can help me. Simply state what to do.

Respectfully yours, [2644]

R18. 4/13/42 EC’s letter to [2644]:

Dear Mr. [2644]:-

As said before our whole purpose is to try and be of a service to our fellow man. Thousands have been helped, am sure, through the information suggested in the readings, yet we never have, never can, promise any one they will be helped. For am not conscious of anything as is given in the suggestion at the time it is given, so can only judge the results by what we are told by those who have applied the suggestions consistently. It is in the application of the suggestions that help comes. Families who had readings twenty-five and thirty years ago, still ask for help for other members of the family. Couldn’t fool people that long a time, could you? There must be an answer, tho, to each within themselves.

Am making the appointment for the afternoon of the 16th - 3.30 to 4.30 E.W.T. Keep the hour in prayer and meditation, would you gain the most, or that has been the experience of others, and think it will apply to you.

Hoping to be of a help in HIS name

Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce

Mr. Edgar Cayce Association for Research and Enlightenment, Incorporated Virginia Beach, Virginia

Dear Sir:

Having had a talk with Mr. [2623], …, New York City, he has been kind to tell me about your diagnostic by projection, “if the word is correct”. I am in a condition of health necessitating some care difficult to find to this day after five years of misery. Many doctors have treated me without much luck! [Unable to work for last five years.]

Could you help me with some more success? If so, I will be very pleased to have an answer to my plea.

Very Respectfully yours, [2644]

B2. 1/2/42 At the present time I am in care of a doctor who did operate on me six months ago “Rejuvenation by glands” but it seems that does not work according to schedule. That doctor injects my artery at regular intervals with some serums that I do not trust much.
