1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find the abnormal conditions as exist in this body have to do with the elimination, especially, as that shown in the extremities, the body forcing or leaving or there being left by the circulation those elements needed in the system to make the perfect elimination throughout the whole system. By the action of this condition where we find there are the broken tissues or abrasions and that it becomes with its own secretions intermingled with those of extra force to become that which is of a general condition and expressed in individual portions of the body, as here on the hand, you see. The reaction from this condition causes, with the weakened forces in and about the pelvic organs, those that give an excess of the forces in the system, hence becomes a part of a condition.
2. Now, these are the conditions as we find in this body:
3. First, we find the blood deficient in its ability to carry throughout the system, those poisons that should be eliminated and that it, the blood, in loosing its effect over the extremities by the deep hepatic circulation, and with the conditions as exist in the body, it brings at times to the capillaries those that should be eliminated through the emunctory action as well as the respiratory functioning. Hence this condition as exists there. Through the blood effect in its circulation we find, with the condition of a strained nervous condition with a blood supply deficient, the body - with its age and action of the circulation through the portions of the pelvic organs that reach those cycles in course - suffers from the condition and brings to the conscious force this condition to its own consciousness, though being a physical condition as well.
4. The nervous forces in the body show the overtaxed condition at times with not sufficient injection into the elemental forces to give the proper incentives to the action of the brain forces in its, the brain's, action over the nerve forces that produce the eliminating functioning organs. Through the action of the nerve forces as applied to the
3827-1 Page 2
physical or individual, we find the functioning of most of the organs very good. The effect as produced in the system of leaving these conditions in the capillaries shows the effect of the toxins being eliminated. The functioning of the brain forces with the action of the cerebrospinal, which carries or receives the impressions and are enacted upon by the forces, produce in this system the condition that becomes necessary to remove from those elemental forces.
5. To give the incentives to the system to carry with the effect or to produce, the perfect elimination in this body - and to make the coordinating elements between the eliminating forces and the emunctory forces, or the emunctories and lymphatics together - we would give those elements to act, first, with the circulation that would create the carbonized or revitalized forces in the system to all portions of the body. We would take this into the system in this manner:
6. To one-half gallon of water we would add: Peruvian Bark.........1 ounce, Dogwood Bark..........2 ounces, Sarsaparilla Root.....1 ounce. This would be steeped or simmered until reduced to one-half pint. Strain and, while warm, add four ounces of cane sugar dissolved in water first and then add two ounces of grain alcohol with three drams of Balsam of Tolu. The dose would be a teaspoonful before each meal.
7. For local conditions on the arms or hands we would apply a lotion made of this:
8. Two ounces of Plantain root and stem in eight ounces of water, reduced until the whole almost jellies, or is a very strong solution. Strain and add sufficient butterfat to make the solution jell or produce a salve formation (this, of course is without the salt and is only the oil from this fat). The application would be made each evening and cleansed of morning, you see.
9. After the medicinal properties are taken in the system we will correct the condition in the pelvic organs, for the action of the stimulants to the blood forces is to act with the organs of the pelvis and to clarify the blood forces, with this solution as used on the hands, see. Do that.
10. (Q) Mr. Cayce, what causes this trouble on the hands? (A) We have given this. Improper and imperfect eliminations through the whole system.
11. (Q) Mr. Cayce, this body complains of the back aching. What causes this?
3827-1 Page 3
(A) The condition as we have described here through the pelvis and hepatic circulation and abrasions. Give all of these in the system and we will remove this.
12. (Q) This body wants to know what causes her eyesight to be bad. (A) The imperfect eliminations.
13. (Q) When that is corrected will it help the eyesight? (A) Very foolish, very foolish.
14. (Q) Mr. Cayce, what is the scientific name for this body's condition on the arms and hands? (A) Cuticle psoriasis, a condition produced in the system whereby the body, through its blood supply, attempts to eliminate the toxins carried in the blood where they are not eliminated through their proper functionings on account of this condition. Names do not mean anything for the condition of this body.
15. We are through.
