This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce in Birmingham, Alabama, this 27th day of October, 1922.

[Edgar Cayce; Frank E. Mohr, Conductor; Stallings, Brazelton & Hale, Court Reporters, Steno. Mr. [3943].]

Time of Reading 10:30 A. M.

  1. FEM: Now, Mr. Cayce, you are going to sleep. (Pause) Now, Mr. Cayce, you are asleep, and all the organs of your body will function properly. You will please hear me and answer all of my questions. You have before you this morning the body of [3943] present in this room. I want you to go over his physical condition and tell me what causes his eye trouble, and also tell me whether there are any other ailments that need correction in this body; [3943], present in this room.

  2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, this body we find is very good throughout all of the organs, and we find the organs functioning in their normal way. The action of the blood force over the system, save where we have conditions that have prevented the blood circulation from being carried in the performance of its natural function. The nerve force in the body expresses the condition as exists in the functioning of the organs that they themselves control, especially those that have to do with the sensory organism; that is to do with the condition of the eyes. See?

FEM: Yes, sir

  1. Which is produced by the blood not taking away the used forces as is used in the organ, or the eye, to give vision; that is when any nerve energy is expended by vision, or by whatever action it may be used in the body, there are used forces to be eliminated, either by the direct circulation through that organ, or by other means furnished; either by the blood circulation or emunctory or lymphatic circulation, producing that constituency necessary to remove from that portion of the body, or organ, those used forces, and they are to be eliminated through their proper channels. Here in this body we find the used forces being not carried away properly. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

  1. Hence the condition begins to form hindering the vision of the eye itself, or of the light from entering through its proper manner being deflected. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

  1. Now, this being caused by the nerve force being misdirected, and misdirected blood circulation and lymphatic forces as taken in this body. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

  1. So to relieve this condition we would, with the action of mental force, or expression, over the sensory system so control the circulation as to cause the proper elimination, or eliminating channels to be directed to the specific cause. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

  1. And with the assistance of mechanical forces so adjust all of the system as to make the direct action of both mental and spiritual being centered in the condition to be removed. That is by gentle manipulation along the centers that govern the nerves from the cerebro spinal nerve center itself, and the plexus governing the symphatic or soul forces and their conjunction points with the sensory organism, and we would then direct, as it were, the energies of the mind and soul forces with the physical attributes in the body to this condition that we wish to remove from this body. Those centers we will find at the cervical region from the 2nd cervical to the 3rd and 4th dorsal. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

  1. These we would use by gentle massage or manipulation, or by rubbing with cold water, to produce shock, and then by fast vibration, which would bring the blood to these centers. Do that. Not of operative forces, but do that if we would bring the conditions normal again in this body.

  2. (Q) Can there be any improvement made? (A) [Repeating question] We have just given the expressions and suggestions that are to be used for the sensory system, and its connection between the physical forces in the body, which will direct the blood supplying forces and nerve energy to this portion of the body. When we correct one, we will correct all of the attributes of that sensory organism. See?

FEM: Yes, sir.

One is to help the other; when one is impaired the other is sensitive; that is, the hearing is sensitive when the sight is impaired, and they all suffer. In this body we find all do that.

  1. (Q) Mr. Cayce, the specialist who examined the eyes of this body claims there is a cataract, and that it needs an operation. You said no operation. What have you got to say about this? (A) [Repeating question] We have given the condition, and what has produced it, and we have given that which will relieve it. Either do that, or leave it. We are through.

  2. Now, Mr. Cayce, you will forget all about this reading you have just given. You are feeling fine, and all of the organs of your body will function properly. Now, you will wake up in two minutes just feeling fine and all right, and free from any headache.
