[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. (Notes read to and transcribed by Jeanette Fitch.) Harmon Bro.]

Time of Reading 10:45 to 11:00 A. M. Eastern War Time. New York City, N.Y.

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; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3392].

3. In considering the physical disturbances in the body, much more than the mere pathological conditions must be taken into consideration. While in the present this is not a mental condition, there may become such. But if proper precautions are taken and corrections made we should have an entirely new outlook on life, new abilities, new possibilities, new opportunities coming to this entity.

4. Those conditions then, while psychological, are produced by a pathological condition. With the change or correction, do change the psychological conditions also and find within self those abilities to control desire, hopes, wishes, as well as habits of the body.

5. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body:

6. In the nerve forces of the body, we find the sources of the disturbances. There has been an injury to the 8th and 9th dorsal area, and thus a lesion has been formed. This is circular and on the under side. Hence there will be required some real precautions in making those corrections. And do have such an one as Coulter to make these corrections.

7. The reflexes from these to the brain cause great anxieties, great imaginations at times as to the manner in which individuals will react, great anxieties as to the possibilities of this disturbance or of this change, or of the regulations or rules bringing disturbances to the body forces. These cause sleeplessness at times; at other periods anything may produce a “don’t care” attitude in reflexes to the body forces.

8. Of course the effect of these upon the body energies and the organs of the body will depend upon what manner of reaction the body takes to meet these emergencies or conditions existent in the cerebrospinal and sympathetic nervous forces of the body. They may break down resistances, cause upsetting in the digestive forces, produce conditions in the liver or the kidneys, or the attitudes and the activities may bring about conditions or relations or activities that will add greater mental disturbances to the body.

9. Then as we find, to meet these:

10. First, do have at least twelve to fifteen gentle but specific corrections, coordinating the lumbar and sacral axis, the upper dorsal and through the cervical area, with the corrections made in the 8th and 9th dorsals.

11. During that period do find self. Read Exodus 19:5. Know that this is speaking to you. Use it.

12. Then apply the whole setting of that in the 30th of Deuteronomy as to how and where spirituality is to be found in self, in the choices made by the mental self. And the mental self is dependent upon the spirit, the purpose, the desire, the hope with which ye entertain ideas, and these lead to the choice of ideals and manner of activity.

13. With these corrections, too, add such vitamins that will build up the body. Take no more shots. These in themselves are not good. They react, yes, just as the stimuli of any of the Spirits Frumenti or fermented foods, but these are not well. The body does not desire nor hope to be ruled by someone else, neither does it wish the spirit of corn or wine to rule, but rather that indicated in Exodus 19:5 - “If ye will be my people, I will be your God.” Not that you become goody-goody, but just be good for something, and in the application of self, ye will find - as the changes come physically, mentally and in thy hopes and desires - ye may indeed make this life, this experience worthwhile.

14. In the vitamins use KalDak. Each afternoon late when the body returns for rest, take a level teaspoonful of KalDak, first dissolved in a small quantity of hot water and the glass filled with milk. Drink this. It will add to the better digestion, adding phosphorous and iron, the vitamins B and B-1, niacin, and all of those that aid in creating a balance.

15. But get the physical balance as well as the purposes in the spiritual ideals of the entity.

16. Ready for questions.

17. (Q) Should he continue taking vitamins? (A) Just read what has been indicated.

18. (Q) How can the psychiatrist assist him more? (A) Forget him! Tell him to go where he belongs! He doesn’t belong in this man’s life at all!

19. (Q) Is the body’s employment too strenuous? (A) No.

20. We are through with this reading.
