This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce in Room 1110 of the Hotel Park Plaza, West 77th St., New York City, this 28th day of November, 1934, in accordance with request made by the brother - Dr. [438], new Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Hugh Lynn Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Dr. [438].]

Park West Hosp., Time of Reading 170 West 76th 8:55 to 9:05 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. St., Room 609, N.Y.C. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [750].

2. Now, as we find, conditions are rather serious. For while there are being made those applications that ease the body- physical in some directions, there are still those creations from the infectious forces that are making in the blood supply the hindrance to the organs making the proper assimilations and drainages from the system.

3. Unless there may be set up better drainages, or so that the poisons from those conditions in the tissue in the head and throat are made more in orders that the circulatory system may be purified and the eliminations increased, this must be very near to separations of the physical and mental soul body.

4. As we find, the addition of the Animated Ash - if it is able to be taken down, and those pressures applied in the 4th and 5th cervical as coordinated with those in the 9th and 10th dorsal, these would set up a counter-irritation - or OPEN these drainages so that there would be set up a counter- reactions to the body.

5. These, we find, would be the more helpful.

6. Give an eighth (one-eighth) grain of the Animated Ash at least twice each day. Follow same with a stiff massage over this area in the upper cervical centers. Not with the light, but a stiff manipulation. Drainages from the 3rd and 4th cervical, or pressures there, and in the 8th and 9th dorsal.

7. Do that.

8. Ready for questions.

9. (Q) How long will the eventual recovery take? (A) Five to six weeks.

10. (Q) Is there any doctor that would be specifically recommended for the adjustments? (A) Anyone in sympathy with the applications that may be had, or the information that may be had through these channels. MAKE these applications, see, today - now! Then, as we see these changes, then we may aid in giving the further instructions also, see?

Pressures 3rd and 4th, see? Ash loose on tongue with water. Stiff massage 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th cervical. Pressures 9th and 10th dorsal, WITH those. These are pressures, and held, see? First one, then the other. These will set drainages to make for the better conditions.

Do this.

11. (Q) Any other suggestions at this time? (A) This at present. This needs attention now.

12. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. GD’s memo: Dr. [438], D.C., Ph.T., the brother, went into the hospital as a visitor and applied the recommended massages, etc. Patient recovered. Little hope had been offered by the doctors.

R2. 6/3/35 GD’s letter to Mr. F. F. Bradley:

Mr. Franklin F. Bradley, Route 1, Box 568, AA, Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mr. Bradley:-

I’m sure you are still very busy, but I’m wondering if you could find time to go over the enclosed copy of your letter [See 11/13/33 letter under 432-1 Reports. See 1800-30.] regarding the Ash and let us know just what changes you would like to make in it before we mimeograph it? Or could you write an article that we could print in a little booklet? The Readings are very persistent in continuing to recommend the use of the Ash in certain conditions; and I think we could stimulate the interest of physicians in some cases if we had a more attractive advertisement of it.

If you think it preferable, we might be able to distribute the Ash from The [438] Service in New York. Dr. [438] had remarkable results from using the Ash for his brother [750], as suggested in a Reading when he was in a very critical condition. Also he has watched the results with Mr. [257]‘s mother [Mrs. [325]]. To handle it in such a way would relieve your son of the detail work connected with the mailing of each individual order, etc. However, that is for you to decide.

The Ash is certainly a wonderful thing, and I feel we should do everything we can to get it advertised and pushed forward properly.

Hoping things are going well with you, and with kind regards from all, I am

Sincerely,

Gladys Davis, Sect’y ASS’N FOR RESEARCH & ENLIGHTENMENT, INC.

R3. 6/16/35 Mr. F. F. Bradley’s letter to Edgar Cayce in reply to GD’s letter:

Route 1, Box 568, AA, Atlanta, Ga.

Dear Mr. Cayce,- Various communications have come in from you and your office but I have been travelling on business almost constantly and all my correspondence has suffered.

About the ash. Am enclosing copy that might be used in advertising or describing same. I am somewhat helpless in doing a job that is worth while in this as the results obtained are not on file here and probably on the occasion of my next visit to Va. Beach we can get together to do a better job.

Bernard, my son, is here for the summer and the equipment for making the ash is here now. We would be glad to have the sales handled by the New York office you suggest. We will for the first time get the packaging in shape and send you sample packages of the 1/4 and eighth grain capsules. The making of this ash is to quite a degree a labor of love. The production is tedious and very slow and put into the hands of an employee would I feel confident not possess the properties desired. It is essential that the strands of fibre actually pass between the arc poles and we have a feeling that only at exact spacing of the poles is the proper result secured. It is hand work of the sort that cannot be reduced to machine work unless the output was such as to warrant an out of proportion expense for equipment. However please know that we will at all times handle the matter as you would desire.

Bernard and I have just completed a batch both of us working steadily and in much discomfort as to temperature and eye strain and carbon dust and a total of 4 hours labor has produced a cupful of ash.

I have designed a semi-automatic equipment that would cost about $1,000 that would do the work reasonably well, how well only a reading could determine, after the expense has been made. But that I think cannot be undertaken at present.

Whatever the New York Concern would pay us for ash in bulk or in capsules would not compensate us for the cost of the ash in time and upkeep of equipment and personal strain. The cupful just made used as nearly as we can figure $2.00 worth of electricity and supplies.

I regret that my financial condition is such that I cannot help support at this time the Association. It is not from lack of desire to do so. I undertook my present position ‘on suspicion’ as Elbert Hubbard would say. If I can carry on without reaching the breaking point, which frankly is at all times yet never far away, I will in time reach a fair financial position. I took the gamble rather than to be employed at a low but fairly sure wage with little hope of more. Not as young as once tho I will not ask yet that Hugh Lynn give me a tennis handicap. My point is that I am reaching at all for the help my friends offer in the way of advice and ways and means. I wish the annual meeting could be a month later, I could probably attend.

I am wishing for you - all of you - a most successful meeting and a new year loaded with the broadcasting and acceptance of the fine things in your program.

Best regards to all of you,

Yours very truly, [signed] Franklin Bradley

CARBON ASH. ACTIVATED ASH.

Dr. Guy Beckley Stearns, celebrated physician of New York City, says that health can be maintained only by keeping a harmony between the various components and functionings of the body. He says farther that certain activated materials when taken internally even in minute doses tend to create and maintain that harmony.

The German doctors of the new school are believers in that program to such an extent that many of them claim that chemically active medicines cannot be helpful except in rare instances; at least to anything like the degree of helpfulness that ‘activated-in-vibration’ substances, that have no chemical activity, offer.

Carbon Ash or Activated Ash as made for the Association for Research and Enlightenment, and made as a result of Readings by Edgar Cayce, and made by methods described in those readings, has no chemical activity. But it is an activated carbon ash prepared at a temperature above the melting point of glass. It is pure bamboo fibre not only coked and purified by extreme temperature but through which at that temperature a high tension electric current has been passed.

The results secured by the use of this ash, in manner prescribed by readings in individual cases, are startling even to the medical profession. Some of them are as follows:

R4. 7/18/35 HLC’s letter to Mr. F. F. Bradley:

Mr. Franklin Bradley Route 1, Box 568, AA Atlanta, Georgia

Dear Mr. Bradley:

After looking at the above address for a few minutes I am convinced that you must be a good democrat. The A.A. looks familiar.

After going through dozens and dozens of our departments your letter of June 16, has finally reached my desk. Thank you for the data to use in connection with the ash. I am preparing a short article on some of the cases where it has been used and will send you a copy for your suggestions and mark of approval before mimeographing for distribution to those interested in securing the product or in our general research work in the field of specifics.

I am distributing two specifics given in the readings through the Health Home Remedies Co., Box 103, Virginia Beach. (Inclosed pamphlet will describe.) In order to centralize the distribution of the ash I will be glad to handle it under this company’s name. You can furnish it to me in bulk (cupful by cupful) or in capsules. I will handle the mailing of it and may place a small amount with representatives in New York, Washington, and Detroit in order to have no delay in delivery since many of the cases for which it is recommended are serious. This can easily be handled on a commission basis to cover the postage, etc., or if you prefer bought from you and resold. I realize of course that you cannot place any price on this and at the present time the small output means little. The amount being used varies according to the number of readings suggesting it. Nevertheless, large or small do you not think it best to handle as a small business?

With your permission I will send a small quantity of it to three or four doctors and ask them to use it on certain types of cases. We can then get a report from them and perhaps work toward something of value for general distribution. I was interested to hear Dr. Frank Dobbins of New York who spoke at our Congress refer in his talk to a case on which he used the ash for external application in combination with Iodex. This combination has proven most helpful in a number of cases. Would you like to take this matter up with the Iodex people or may I do so? Proper proportions used with Iodex in a number of clinical cases might prove very helpful and result in the Iodex company taking an interest in the ash.

Dr. [438] of whom Dad wrote you in regard to handling the ash in New York has recently had an automobile accident and has been in the hospital for several weeks. I will gladly place some of the ash with him in order to facilitate delivery in New York.

Is your son Bernard interested in mechanics. We have had difficulty in locating some one to handled the preparation of the mechanical appliances suggested in the readings (Radio Active and Wet Cell Appliances). This is only part time work but brings in a small income. I will be glad to take this up with him if he is interested.

We had a most successful Congress and are looking forward to a year of steady growth. I want to write you more details of some of the plans at a later date.

In line with our archaeological interests Mrs. [587], a member of the Association, recently discovered a well on a small island Bimini] off the Florida coast as directed through a reading. Some connection with a past incarnation. [See 587-3, 4.]

I have a good court, a broken racquet and a strong desire to beat you a set of tennis. When are you coming this way again?

With the most respectful regards, I am

Sincerely, HLC
