This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Virginia, this 17th day of May, 1934, in accordance with request made by self - Miss [275], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mildred Davis, L. B. and Hugh Lynn Cayce.]

Time of Reading 11:10 to 11:35 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.Y. (Body & enquiring mind, who seeks information, advice & guidance as to her physical, mental & spiritual well-being. After giving such a reading, you will then answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [275]; this we have had before.

2. As we find, in the physical there are conditions that need attention in the present. These, while in their present state may be eliminated, need - from the physical activity - the drainages and eliminations to be increased, that the drosses may be eliminated - that have accumulated from the strains, and the tendency for opening the mental application of self to draw from the normal activity. Hence there is a tendency for the physical body to prevent the normal eliminations and flow from the body in its normal activity.

3. There should be reference made to that given in previous information through these sources, as to the necessity of the manipulations that may physically make for the coordinating of the activity of the organs of the body, both in the assimilation and elimination.

4. We will find that the deeper manipulations in the portions from which there is the activity from the organs of the torso and the organs of the pelvis, would make for material changes.

5. As we find here in these conditions that have arisen with this body, much might be asked as to how and why that a body so sensitive - and one giving of self to spiritual and mental activity - could come under the influence of material obstructions, in a body being purified by the very mental and spiritual activity that manifests through same. These are practical questions that might easily be asked by any, even by self. This, then, is as we have given: The physical forces are in the material realm of activity; the mental is both spiritual and physical in its reaction to the body and to the conditions mental, spiritual and physical that surround same, but subject wholly to the laws of materiality while in the material plane. Hence must the more often be met. This in the material activity. Yet the very question that would naturally arise from same would be: If a body is spiritualized, is it not sufficient and capable of meeting those things that are in the material plane? To be sure! For, unless the physical is spiritualized there is not the cleansing. But every force, every power that is manifesting as a force in material has its inception in the spiritual nature. And when the applications are made of a material nature, they must coordinate with the mental, the spiritual, the physical, that the greater and the better conditions may ensue and be manifested in material things.

6. Then, the applications for this body, [275], in the material things, would be:

7. Have the more often, for at least three to five treatments, deeper manipulations to set up drainages from the liver, the spleen, the pancreas, and also stimulating the organs through the impulses in the centers from the lumbar area as related to the organs of pelvis. Osteopathy]

8. Keep the physical attitude, the mental attitude, of expectancy of the activities through the body itself to bring nearer and nearer normalcy for the body.

9. Be mindful that the diet creates more eliminations through the alimentary canal, that those portions of the body where the drainages are set up may keep down the flow of the lymph that has increased to such an extent as to make for plethoric activity in the impulses in the superficial circulation.

10. And we will find conditions on the improve.

11. As to the mental and spiritual forces of the body, as has been given, little may be added to that which has been given respecting the activities of the mental and spiritual forces that may manifest through this body. Give expression to same, but in such measures and in such manners that there is NOT the tendency for creating those conditions in the physical that SUBJUGATE any activity.

12. Ready for questions.

13. (Q) What is cause and cure for swelling on face? (A) As indicated, there is the tendency for the emunctory and lymph circulation to be so increased - by the humor created by subjugation in other portions of the body - as to create this activity.

Drainages set up by the stimulation of those centers as indicated, from the mechanical way and manner, will relieve these conditions.

14. (Q) What is the condition of front tooth? (A) Needs local attention, by the activity of too much of a flow of impulse to this portion of the system without the proper drainage. Local applications needed.

15. (Q) What specific local application is referred to? (A) Go to a dentist!

16. (Q) Would massage be good for body? [GD’s note: Weekly massages had been given the past month by a friend, Mrs. [509].] besides osteopathic treatments? (A) As indicated, the better will be the deeper manipulations in those specific portions that we have indicated.

17. (Q) Any further directions for rub or light? (A) As we find, we would discontinue the light in the immediate, see? These treatments may be begun later, but discontinue in the immediate; for if drainages are set up and the strong light is used only as a stimulation for it, with that created by the deeper manipulations and stimulations of the organs’ activity for the drainages in the system, these tend to flow back - by subjugation.

18. (Q) Any further directions for diet? (A) As indicated, keep more of those foods that make for the better eliminations through the alimentary canal, that the drainages as set up and as thrown on the various portions of the eliminating forces of the body may be taken care of.

19. (Q) Is there any further advice or counsel as to my mental and spiritual well-being? (A) As indicated, little may be added to that which has been given. But, as suggested, not so active - or not so forming activities as to make for suppressions in the physical in any direction.

20. We are through with this reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 5/17/34 Dr. Frank P. Dobbins’ letter to EC [not rec’d until after 275-41, of course]:

“We had an Xray taken of [275] [as noted in 275-37 Reports]. There seems to be little if any change in the condition of her hip. I have had a couple of Xray men look this over [the pictures] and they are not sure that it isn’t a Giant Cell Sarcoma. If it is possible would like to have that question asked in the next check reading, also whether or not Xray treatment would be advisable. Have not seen Mrs. [255] since the Xray was taken and shall say nothing about it to her. I would like to have this information for myself alone if possible. I do hope that you are given the power to help them at this time and only wish that I could do something myself.”

R2. 5/18/34 EC’s ltr. to Miss [275]: “I’m thinking there must have been something of a strain, either mentally or physically, that has brought about this condition, and I’m anxious about it [swelling of face, etc., etc.] You be sure to let me hear, and have Dr. Dobbins write me also. And how about that plate? Did you ever get it? What did he think it showed, if anything different from what it had heretofore? I would love to get a peep at it, if I could.”

R3. 5/22/34 Mother [255]‘s ltr: “This is just to let you know that [275] is quite herself again. We were shown that her system needed elimination and that has taken place. We are both sorry that you should have been at all anxious…

“As for the Xray, I will bring it down when I come. Love to you all.”

R4. 5/28/34 Mother [255] wrote: “[275] is a tower of spiritual strength, understanding love and happiness. I have much to thank God for every hr.”

R5. 5/29/34 EC’s letter to Dr. Frank P. Dobbins, D.O.: “When your letter came we had just gotten the rdg. for [275] (the second time that has happened). From Mrs. [255] I understand that she is feeling a whole lot better. Perhaps you have seen the rdg.

“I’m anxious to see the plates; not that I think I know so much about them, but - as you possibly know - through the years I have had considerable experience with Xray work, and have been considered by quite a number of very well known and prominent physicians in that line as a very good interpreter of plates. In fact, some have said that I do that psychically, though I do not claim anything of the kind.”

R6. 6/3/34 Miss [275]‘s ltr: “I have been wanting to write you ever since I rec’d my last rdg. To me it was very satisfactory, especially the part where it gives the relationship between the physical, mental, and spiritual. I am feeling very well all around, and haven’t had any pain now for a long time.

“The experience that we are passing through [See 378-38, etc.] has taught me a great deal, in many ways, and I know I will be far better for having experienced it. We are all very calm and confident, as we know that everything is turning out just as it should.

“[276] and I are getting along fine in our music, and are hoping to play at two different places this month, as our first two paid engagements. Both of us deeply enjoy it, as it gives a certain inward satisfaction to really be able to do something with our gift.

“I am sending down a few seal booklets [See 275-11 Reports], that you can use as you feel.”

R7. 10/2/34 She obtained Ck. Physical 275-42.
