1. FEM: Now, Mr. Cayce, you are going to sleep. Now, Mr. Cayce, you are asleep and all of the organs of your body will function properly; you will hear me and answer all of my questions. You have before you the body of Miss [4797], who is present in this room. Now, Mr. Cayce, tell me the physical and mental ailments that you find within this body that you have before you; also tell me if an operation is necessary, - please tell me. And if not, tell me what will relieve the condition within the body which you have before you, and also that which will correct her hearing, and any other ailments that you may find. Miss [4797], present in this room.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now in this body we find there are conditions that are abnormal that to this body have become a normal condition of the body. We find other conditions abnormal to this body that may be corrected and made normal - see? FEM: Yes sir.
3. These have to do with the spiritual and mental forces, as well as the physical forces through this body - see? FEM: Yes sir.
4. For the body is highly developed, or has gone on beyond the development of many normal bodies in the condition and development of things, spiritual and mental forces - see? FEM: Yes sir.
5. Now these are conditions as we find in this body - Miss [4797] we are speaking of: Through the blood supplying the forces we find the development of the forces in blood supply has been brought to a better condition than that existing in the circulation at times back, for there has been within the blood forces in the channels that are carrying the rebuilding cellular force that which was destructive to the
4797-1 Page 2
forces, yet to some extent and to the greater extent has been alleviated through the way and manner here - you see. FEM: Yes sir.
6. So that we have brought the body to the condition as existing now throughout, so that this portion and these parts become the normal force now within the body, yet to other bodies would be abnormal - see? FEM: Yes sir.
7. The blood forces as shown at present are very good. The development of the force to carry, and to give to the blood supplying centers those necessary properties to alleviate the conditions, keep or show their effect through the body at present. Through the nerve force and in the nervous systems we find the development of the spiritual and mental forces as giving direct expression over the system. We find the effect here of some abnormal conditions that may be corrected now within the body and brought to a better condition, those especially that have effect on the sensory organism, or the organs of sight, of hearing, and of the functioning of speech forces as to make a perfect co-ordination between all of the forces that have to do with the sensory organism - see? FEM: Yes sir.
8. For we find that the developing of the body to bring about and to ward off the warring for one within the system that have affected those ganglia, and the seat of the conditions affecting these or the sensory organism to an extent in the body - see - here. FEM: Yes sir.
9. This condition we find in the ganglia that are now affected: Through the blood forces that affect the ganglia that feed or supply the nutriment and the rebuilding cellular force in the head portions, that is, those here at the cervicals, first, second and third cervical, at the fifth, sixth and seventh dorsal, where we have the connection between the cerebrospinal and the sympathetic nerve, the ganglia here affecting these show the lack of force being taken from the system or from the blood to give the replenishing necessary to keep the correct co-ordinating forces between the cerebrospinal and the sympathetic and to give to the brain forces themselves the proper vibration to produce in the body that responding sound, or responding force, to give action in proper form to the nerves of the
4797-1 Page 3
eye or the nerve force of the ear itself - see? FEM: Yes sir.
10. The major nerves of the ears themselves have not been destroyed - see. FEM: That is good.
11. While we find that the growth about the drum portion or about the parts of the ear that hold or prevent the high pressure of outside forces has become thickened so that we have deadened sound to the auditory nerve, and the replenishing force or the revibratory force from the brain that gives the auditory force the sound to produce within the system is thickened; yet by producing correct vibration as to cause the nerves - which are electrical forces of course - to take from the system those properties necessary to rebuild units of cellular life-giving force, we would gradually build back the condition necessary to produce better sound in the ears themselves - see? FEM: Yes sir.
12. The same effect there affects the nerves governing the eye forces here, you see. FEM: Yes sir.
13. This is of a different condition and different effect on the optic forces; yet we find something of the same condition, though the optic forces have been retrieved, have been better conditioned than those of the auditory forces, you see. FEM: Yes sir.
14. Operation to these portions of the body would not assist. They would destroy those things necessary to bring the proper incentives from the circulation. This apparently is produced by high temperature, by fever in the body, you see. FEM: By fever in the body. Yes sir.
15. We would give this to this body to produce the proper vibrations within the system - see? FEM: Yes sir.
16. We would give this internally, or as medicinal properties to create those properties sufficient for the system to rebuild, and to have the blood supply and nerve force to take from the energies, as it were, that these will create in the body itself: We would take:
4797-1 Page 4
Sarsaparilla Root........6 ounces, Yellow Dock Root.........2 ounces, Burdock Root.............2 ounces, Blood Root...............2 ounces, Black Snake Root.........2 ounces, Elder Flower.............4 ounces. This would be put into a gallon of rain water, and reduced by simmering - not boiling - to one quart. Add to this six ounces of grain alcohol and four ounces of cane sugar - see? FEM: Yes sir.
17. The dose of this would be a tablespoonful night and morning, until all of this quantity is taken up - see? FEM: Yes sir.
18. Then we would prepare the vibratory forces to be used on the body in this manner: To a gallon and a half of water in a glass jar we would add: Plain Charcoal...........1 pound, Copper Sulphate......1 1/2 pounds, Sulphuric Acid, C.P......1 ounce, Zinc.....................1 ounce, see? FEM: Yes sir.
19. This would form a battery in itself, but we would place in this jar with these chemicals combined as we have given, four ounces of iodine in a container - glass, you see. [GLASS CORK] FEM: Yes sir.
20. Then charge the whole solution with a very low voltage of electricity for thirty minutes - see? FEM: Yes sir.
21. With this jar, you see - FEM: Yes sir.
22. - inside, of the container. The poles to which the battery would be attached would both be of iron when charging. When it is ready for use or to apply to the body we would change the poles to one of iron or steel, the other of silver. They will be attached to the body, each plate, one to the wrist of the right hand, the other to the left side of the third cervical, here, about the neck - see?
4797-1 Page 5
FEM: Yes sir.
23. This wold be taken each evening for thirty minutes - see? FEM: Yes sir.
24. Keep this up for four changes of the solution, which will last, you see, from three to four weeks - see? FEM: Yes sir.
25. This will gradually bring back to this body here - Miss [4797] we are speaking of - the conditions necessary to produce the correct vibration in the body. Do that.
26. (Q) Mr. Cayce, was it measles or typhoid fever that brought this trouble on? (A) It was a fever that settled here in the head, you see, and neck, and about this portion of the body, from measles. FEM: From measles, he said. The auditory forces, about the sixth cervical, the action of all of the vibratory forces as functioned by the system became affected with the cold and congestion that set in, and there has been other times that has added to it where it has been too much quinine given to this body. Do as we have given if we would bring back the correct vibrations necessary. We are through.
27. Now, Mr. Cayce, you will forget all about this reading you have given. You are feeling all right, and all of the organs of your body function properly. You are feeling good. Now wake up in just two minutes, just feeling fine and all right. and all right.
