1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now we find there are some serious abnormal conditions in this body. They are of a physical and mental and affect the organs in their functioning and the nervous systems in their functioning.

2. Now these are conditions as we find them in this body, Mrs. [4787], we are speaking of: First, in the circulation we find the blood supply has been surcharged with those properties that have been attempted to be used to affect the nervous system to such an extent to make a coordinating condition. The effect has been to cause much of certain properties to be lodged in the circulation, especially, in that of the capillaries and the lymphatics, until we find there are portions of the body that not only become to the body a detriment but unsightly to those from the other forces that love and esteem this body from the physical plane. The circulation has then become charged with the dross to be removed or eliminated through channels of the hepatic circulation. These become overcharged, yet the kidneys and their attributes suffer the most in this particular, on account of local conditions through the pelvic organs.

3. The nerve forces themselves in the functioning of the cerebrospinal nerve force we find that the impinionment of certain nerve centers have so acted upon the system as to prevent the action of the direct operation of the impressions as received to the body through any of the sensory organism as to make the coordinating forces necessary to give the carrying out, in the physical sense, the impressions received to the mental forces of the body itself and only those of the scenes and impressions as received through the other channels, namely, those of perception and of hereditary forces become the active principle both through the nerve centers as governed by these impressions and expressions of the physical and not by the reason of the mental forces of the body, Mrs. [4787], now we are speaking of, see. The impressions as received to the cerebrospinal forces are only tempered by the

sympathetic condition in the body and not altogether ruled by the other forces, save as we have given, see. Through the sensory organism, as we have given, the body suffers on account of the prevention of the nutriment from the system, the secretions and the dross of the organs gives such impressions as to prevent the full action of the organ proper, see.

4. As to the functioning of the organs themselves we find the brain force impoverished and the hallucinations at times become apparent in the individual action. In the functioning of the organs in their order we find with the reaction to the brain forces or seat of the nerve impressed forces give off only the meager detail of the real condition in the body as the administration to portions of the body has only shifted the responsibility of the conditions from the group of forces as brought to bear on the system. The lung forces, very good in its functioning. The heart action is only an expression to the body of the conditions that exist toward the individual forces that would react at times. In the digestive tract we find the action of thoughts expressed even here gives its reaction to the digestive qualities of the properties given the individual, see. The cuticle or the outer portions of the physical suffer with the action of these conditions. In times back we find there has been a lesion formed in and about the pelvic organs that allowed lacerations to the organs and this has gradually brought about the condition existing in the body at present, so to give the better condition to this body, we would first have the removal of that producing the hallucinations to the mental forces themselves. With and how that should be done rests with the individual, see, for without the proper incentive no one gives the reaction necessary, see, this being hard to reach in the individual on account of conditions, see, this being, then, removed by the deep manipulation, and the local conditions treated to give the organs the vibration necessary. For the local condition then, after this has been arranged or given (the manipulations - the incentive for action) give that first that would relieve the blood strain and in this we would prepare this, see:

5. To one gallon of rain water, add: Wild Cherry Bark................5 ounces, Yellow Dock Root................2 ounces, Dogwood Bark....................2 ounces, Calisaya Bark...................2 ounces.

6. Reduce by simmering not boiling to one quart. The dose

would be, after the addition of the preservative, alcohol, six ounces, to which is added, while warm 15 grains of Chloride of Gold, see, with six grains of Bromide of Soda with 30 grains of Balsam of Myrrh, see, the dose would be one teaspoonful three times each day. While this is being given and the massage every other day with adjustments, see, we would apply the strong violet ray to the whole system each evening for five minutes to regain and rejuvenate the system from reaction, both from mental and physical forces, see. Do that.

7. (Q) What do you mean by this body having hallucinations, Mr. Cayce? (A) We mean the body has hallucinations. Things appear that are not, when the action of the forces in the system are.

8. (Q) What properties were given in the system that surcharged the blood? (A) Those as we have given here, you see. Do this as we have given to overcome this condition, you see. They were Bromides and Bromidias.

9. (Q) Mr. Cayce, have you anything further to say regarding this body? (A) Do as we have given if we would assist this body in gaining the control and equilibrium of itself again, but have patient, persistent, but carry out and carry on just as we have given, see. Do that.

10. (Q) What do you mean by the body being unsightly to those who love it? Do you mean scars, or what? (A) These are perceptible only to those who see the individual body, see. Look at the body, here, you see it. Do as we have given, we will remove these conditions. We are through.
