[Edgar Cayce; Mrs. Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Dr. Lydic.]

Time of Reading 11:15 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City. (Physical Suggestion)

  1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Mrs. [325]. This we have had before. Now, conditions show that in so far as the applications are being carried in the manner given, SO far has been the response. While there are periods when the body does not feel so well, and that the cough disturbs the body, these conditions are improved at the present, and with the continuation these SHOULD respond.

  2. The manipulations should not be too severe, but remember that a physical body needs exercise that the activities may not become dormant in any portion of the system. Hence this should be a GENTLE but a THOROUGH massage, taking into consideration all activities and that being attempted to be created in the system.

  3. The eliminations must be kept somewhat above the normal, but these should NOT be of such a nature, as has been given, that will DISTURB the equilibrium in the BLOOD supply; that is, when there is the use of such activities, or of the creation of so much activity in the eliminations in alimentary canal, the BLOOD supply is ATTACKED THROUGH the manner in which ASSIMILATIONS take place. As is seen, for illustration, when cathartics - as of over dose of salts or Pluto or of phenophthalein, or any of those that excite the mucus membranes of the intestines as to cause the emunctories and lymph to become overactive, the BLOOD is attacked. Of course, this has been given as warning.

  4. Then, oil - that, does not strain - or olive oil, that that gives food value to intestines and to stomach and to digestion; or oil enemas - any of these may be used EFFECTIVELY, ESPECIALLY of the massage OSTEOPATHICALLY - not just a masseuse, but massage osteopathically, which takes into consideration the leverages necessary in all of the cartilaginous centers, taking into consideration the sinew and muscular forces of the system; not straining, to be sure, for easily would tissue be disturbed in same.

  5. DO that. Keep the ash also, and occasionally keep those as in the Calcidin, and keep the body quiet and as pleasant in its surroundings as possible. Do not ALLOW the body to worry, nor to EXCITE itself as regarding conditions, circumstances, or anything about same. Ready for questions.

  6. (Q) Are the lamps with the ash producing the proper result? (A) Better were these of a stronger lamp, or light - but these are very good, and are in a manner supplying the necessary increase in carbon or oxygen in its activity. Carbon meaning, as the element of energy. Oxygen, as that which forces its activity in a human system.

  7. (Q) Should the ash be increased or continued as being given, twice a day? (A) Given twice a day. Do not increase it as yet. Be sure it is stirred in water and that not too much adheres to the container when taken.

  8. (Q) Is the lung condition clearing up properly? (A) As far as the congestion is concerned, clearing very good. As far as those actions of the the condition from the tumor, or from those forces as form from same, these have not cleared yet - but have not made farther inroads yet either.

  9. (Q) How often should osteopathic treatments be given? (A) At least two or three times each week, or when necessary to REST the body.

  10. (Q) Should the body have had as much company as it had on Sunday last, or is it better to keep the body perfectly quiet? (A) The activities of the body-mental and physical have been such that this may be a moot question by many. Just as has been given, do not let company - or even associations of the surroundings of the family - be of such a nature as to cause worry, either by being too little attentive to the body or too OVER attentive to the body! See, it leaves a wide range! This should be judged according to the CONDITIONS, as the MOODS even of the body change. There are times when they are not wanted, and these should not be forced. There are times when ALL are wanted, and many more, and these should be had!

  11. (Q) Should the body be allowed to sit up in a chair when she feels like it? (A) When she feels like it! Would BETTER be!

  12. (Q) How long shall she continue the treatment of ash and lamp as given? (A) If they are asked about every few days, as they have been - we will tell when we are through! Don’t be foolish!

  13. (Q) Will Jewish Science aid this body to overcome the condition in the system? (A) The application as has been given regarding mental forces of the system are active, and it has been outlined often as to how these are active within a physical body. Both the spiritual and mental body may so give that activity in a physical organism as to destroy, or as to allow the physical to overcome the mental and spiritual. The spirit is often willing, the PHYSICAL is MOST often weak. This will aid, [if] the PROPER CONSIDERATION will be given for the views, for the training, and for the outlook of THIS particular body, [325].

  14. Do as we have given, for we are through for the present with this reading.
