1. DEK: Now, Mr. Cayce, you are going into a quiet, restful, normal sleep. You will hear me when I speak and give the information which I will ask of you, slowly, distinctly, and in detail. Now, Mr. Cayce, you are asleep; you hear me and you will give this information; locate the body of Mrs. [106], who is in this room, and when you have located the body go thoroughly over it, give us a complete physical, mental and spiritual, personal reading of her entire body, and after you have finished name any abnormal conditions which you may find, giving the cause, the treatment and cure. We will then ask you questions which you will answer in detail, slowly and distinctly.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, in this body, in the physical, mental and spiritual we find the body very good throughout. There are some conditions in the physical that the body should be wary of, for there are conditions that when they become accentuated, or the eliminations are allowed to act in an abnormal way, distresses are brought about, due to the functioning of some conditions. These then have to do with the hepatic circulation.
3. Now these are the conditions as we find them in this body of [106], now in this room:
4. First, in the blood supply. In this we find a normal pulsation, the body well divided in the circulation, and the circulation at the present time well balanced in the system. The numbers in red and white corpuscles being well balanced, also the ... forces in the body at present very good.
5. In the nerve system, in this we find there have been, in times back, conditions not satisfactory. At present very good throughout, only when we have an unbalanced hepatic circulation do we have distress through the nervous system or through the circulation and functioning of organs becoming involved in this particular ganglion. Today we find this condition, apparently that of a secondary solar plexus, the 9th, 10th, 12th dorsal. See? DEK: We see.
6. In the sympathetic system, the body very good. In the

... organization, body very good. Some conditions that might be assisted, yet these are not of a nature that bring distress to the body - in the functioning of the organs themselves.
7. In brain force very good. In spiritual insight, in discernment between those conditions of a secular nature and of spiritual environment, well balanced. In sympathetic conditions regarding both mental, spiritual and physical, the body is ever of that condition that weighs all conditions well.
8. Throat, lungs, bronchials - these show where the strain comes at times, though not at present.
9. Heart action normal.
10. Digestive tract very good at present. There have been times when the body had distress from duodenum digestion; these in times back. In the liver and upper hepatic circulation, at present well balanced, for the ozone and oxidation in the body has been very much improved from what it was in times back.
11. In the region of the Peyer's gland we find this the condition where distresses come in elimination, and this condition the body should be warned of, for with the unbalancing of the circulation, either through congestion or through over-stimulation in the digestive tract, gives distress to the kidneys and to the liver, and we find in the tissues then those poisons that should be eliminated at such times; not at present. This then affects, the kidneys in the emunctory circulation, when the congested liver taxes the emunctories, then the kidneys attempt to eliminate that excess created. This brings a form of condition to nerve ends in the muscular tissue that gives achey, stretchy, tired condition, happening through the sacral region. This is the reaction, and refractory conditions in the rest of the body functioning normal.
12. When such conditions arise in the body it would be well that those salines be taken that stimulate the Peyer's gland region, without stimulus to the duodenum and pancreas. Such stimulation would be found in small quantities of plain phosphate of soda, with a few drops of syrup of sarsaparilla, given in a half glass of water and 1/2 teaspoonful of phosphate of soda, with 9 drops of syrup of sarsaparilla. This would be taken early of mornings, but only when necessary to produce elimination. The body is better by much exercise taken in the open air.
13. When distresses are felt in the small of the back or through the ilium and sacral plexus apply the saturated solution of bicarbonate of soda and apply heat of heated

salt. This will reduce the taxation and assist the elimination properly. For the body is very good and has many years of usefulness before it; for it will live for as many more years nearly as it has lived. See? DEK: We see.
14. (Continuing) The body is good throughout at present. See? DEK: Yes, we see.
15. And these are conditions that may arise and are those to be warned of and to be met when they do arise from time to time.
16. (Q) How often should the body take the sarsaparilla and soda? (A) Only when eliminations are not proper. See? When the excretory system does not function normally, or when it feels dull or achey through overtaxation, or the dull headaches that may proceed from conditions of over-eating or over-stimulation. See?
17. (Q) What type of work should this body be associated with? (A) Any that has to do with the discernment of conditions related to physical and spiritual forces, especially under environmental conditions.
18. (Q) Is the body psychic? (A) Not in the sense that the body - is psychic. All bodies are psychic to an extent.
19. (Q) Would this body be interested in psychic work? (A) It might eventually, not at present.
20. (Q) How could this body be interested in that kind of work? (A) This has nothing to do with the physical. We are through.
21. (Q) Mr. Cayce, is the heart of this body normal? (A) [No answer]
