Cayce said BLOOD SUPPLY, is very good; and the action of it in system, except where deflections show their effect, is good.
Bacilli have attacked the nerves in their action, and in the centers that were attacked there are
scar tissues of a nature that deflections to the nerve supply and to the portions [where] this deflection is caused there is also deflection of blood supply, and also there is the lack of ELIMINATIONS, produced by deflection.

The problems, are in the brachial plexus and in the 7th, 6th, 5th, 4th, cervical. The effect, which this produces, is weakening of the tissue, which is supplied through the nerve branches to the face, to the throat, to the auditory system - the auditory and the vision suffer most. From this there is produced a hardening of the optic nerve supply, this will gradually - unless relief is brought - bring to the lens of the eye a diffusion that brings distress, inflammation, and gradually the loss of reflected vision.

Expect discouraging periods during the treatment- but be persistent and consistent with the treatment and always have a correct attitude. Be, dependent upon Him who gave SIGHT to the blind, strength to the limber hand, and knees - life to those that were in darkness.

Apply wet heat to these cervical and dorsal [areas] - as have been given, and as show this tautness and this condition. While the body is relaxed from this damp or wet heat, manipulation- not adjustments but MANIPULATION should be made so that the nerves and the blood supply may seek their correct channels - even giving off greater power and strength to make and seek
NEW channels through tissue that has been in dis-use.
Give gently EVERY day, and every third day DEEP manipulation, reaching to the third ventricle, third nerves of the face, and about the ear and eye. NOT pressure, but manipulation - FOLLOWING OUT the branches of each nerve, reaching from their base in the cerebro-spinal and sympathetic system to their exterior ends in neck and face.

Applying - every third day - after the deep manipulation - the Violet Ray, for only three minutes to the cerebrospinal system, and with the eye applicator (being double) apply for one minute to the eye.

"About 8 mos. ago (eye specialist) told me I had Glaucoma and Iritis Pigmentosis, but being an optimist I thought they would be all right. Now I am at home and Dr. says my eyes are decidedly worse.

Cayce found disturbances with the glandular system, related to the activities of the adrenals. This made for an unbalanced condition relating to the supply of energies in the circulation to the sensory forces. This hinders or impoverishes the supply to the optic forces; producing a relaxation that causes the problem in the eye reflex itself. These hinder in the kidneys' activity in bringing about elimination, and a flow of secretions that are a part of same deflect through the supply to optic forces.
Consistent effort is needed, and especially related to the general building up of the health itself, and especially related to the circulation that exists between the liver, the kidneys and to the supply of blood AND nerve energies in portions of the cerebrospinal system - as related to the assimilation and glandular activity.

Little that is applied directly to the optic forces themselves will be beneficial, other than keeping the cornea and the eyeball itself cleansed occasionally with a mild antiseptic.

The DIET has to be improved - AND that IS a stimulus to the glandular forces AND the forces of body where assimilations are carried on. Each day have plenty of carrots, raw and cooked and lettuce and celery. B-1 Complex; One a Day. This would be sufficient of these properties for the body. Take it rather in series; one each day for at least three weeks, leave off one week, and then take again. But continue with those diets that carry the properties indicated. Beets and beet tops also should be a part of the diet.

Have the Jerusalem artichoke three times each week twice cooked, once raw; one not larger than a medium hen egg. When cooked, let it be cooked in its OWN jacket - or in Patapar Paper, and mix the juices as

come from same with the pulp that is eaten. Season to suit the taste. Do have quantities of fish in the diet, and seafoods.

Each day have a thorough massage with a combination of oils. This need not be professionally given, but SHOULD be given thoroughly and given with care and precaution. This would be especially from the base of the brain, or 1st cervical, to the 9th dorsal along the spinal system. The oils would be combined in this manner:
To 4 ounces of Russian White Oil, or Usoline, as the base, add - in the order named:

Peanut Oil................1 ounce,
Oil of Cedar Wood.......1/2 ounce,
Oil of Sassafras Root...1/4 ounce,
Lanolin (dissolved).....1/4 ounce.

Shake these together thoroughly, massage along the spine. Especially at the base of brain, at the lower portion of the cervicals and on the upperdorsals - these areas especially; just what the body will absorb. Preferably do this of evening when ready for bed.

(Q) Can any of the sight be restored? (A) Depends totally upon how consistent and how well the body responds, and as to whether there is overstrain in the use of the eyes from day to day. Do not sit in a dim light to attempt to read, or do not sit where the light reflects directly on the face when working.

(Q) What causes the pressure in my eyes and what corrective measures will stop it?
(A) Just stated. These are the conditions. Meet them in these ways. Self can apply most of these things better than others, except the massages that should be given daily.

Fine results indicated
I have wanted to write you and thank the power vested in you for the great benefit the suggestions have been to [630]. There were a few days I was not able to massage her back. She said it was interesting to notice the difference it made .we couldn't carry out the suggestions fully as to diet. I wrote all over the country trying to get artichokes for her. Just the last month they came into market here.

BACKGROUND 3305-1 M 46
Seeking help for his semi-blindness, hypertension, etc.

3305-1 M 46
Cayce found poor physical forces of this body, especially related to the specific disturbances in the optical forces of the body. For, there is fast dissipation of the supply of energies or nerves to the optic center itself. This is such that the fluids flow into it without the impelling force that keeps the nerve and the fluid from activity together.
Greater help here may come from spiritual insight and the trust in the divine within self to carry forward with those purposes and aims in this material sojourn.

This condition may be allayed for a time, but it is a part of the whole consciousness of the body-entity and will be met in that same way and manner.
Apply food values that may aid in staying the condition; that is, extra quantities of B-1 and (niacin) and those foods in excess - such as carrots, oysters, and foods that are rich in the body forces pertaining to the optic centers or optic nerve centers. But only a staying can be made in the conditions that they have reached in the present. Adding in supplementary form the A, D and B, - or the One a Day B complex.
Stimulate the nerve centers from the 3rd and 4th dorsal to the 1st cervical area, and about the base of the brain, if this is done by a massage with oils that will be rather severe at times. Prepare these in this manner, adding the ingredients in the order named:
Olive Oil........................2 ounces,
Peanut Oil.......................2 ounces,
Oil Of Sassafras Root..........1/4 ounce,
Oil Of Mustard..................10 drops,
Lanolin (liquefied)..............1 teaspoonful.
Shake these together each time before using, for they will separate. Then pour into an open saucer, and massage especially from the areas of the 3rd and 4th dorsal up to the base of the brain. Apply at least once each week.
And do keep the mental and spiritual attitudes for the better conditions.

(Q) If and when I return to work, is it indicated that this trouble will come back? (A) This condition must be met.

(Q) What has caused my semi-blindness? (A) Glaucoma caused from a wasting of the nerve forces and is partially - from karmic forces.

(Q) Any other advice for this body? (A) Use the spiritual forces and do stimulate - by the
massage the supplying of energies from the various centers in cerebrospinal system. This is done by the taking of the vitamins, as well as by the massage.

(Q)	How can high blood pressure be reduced? (A) This may be reduced by the deep manipulations and colonic irrigations. This, too, will rise again, but it can be kept down in this manner – and by keeping off of meats of any kind.

Report
He seemed all out of 'tune' with everything constructive - was out of a job - both he and his wife were practically on charity, but he still didn't respond to any constructive spiritual approach. I'm sure he could have been helped if he had responded to the spiritual advice in the reading."

Cayce found serious conditions. General debilitation and lack of full coordination between cerebrospinal nerves and the sympathetic, and especially the organs of the sympathetic system related to the optics, and enlargement of the optic nerve. The glaucoma will become more and more proficient, and there will be less and less vision. General health has much to do with the condition and karma has much more.

First things first make the mind and purpose in accord with unison of activity in the purposes of the soul-entity toward Creative Forces or God. What I believe is being said here is help people.
For, who heals all diseases? Who brings to pass justice in the earth? The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. Your opportunities and purposes, with each soul, are only lent thee - as opportunities for thee. Use them to the glory of God and not to the willful disobedience in any manner.

Keep the faith, which is so specifically indicated in Exodus 19:5 - that is to thee, as it is to each soul who seeks to become one with the Father.

Have at least three to five general, thorough hydrotherapy treatments. These will purify the body, just as the mind would purify the mind and soul by the spiritual ideals and purposes.
Include the light Cabinet Sweats, Fume Baths using Witchhazel, Oil or Bubble Baths, and a thorough rubdown with oils using this combination:
Olive Oil......................2 ounces,
Peanut Oil.....................2 ounces,
Lanolin (dissolved)..........1/4 ounce.

Rest after these. Then apply mildly but thoroughly the dry cell, which has electric energy to cause the re-charging of the body. Use with two plates or bars to be attached to the body. Set the attachment plates on glass and put the feet on them.
The attitudes must be keep creative in thought, knowing that in Him is life and life more abundant to those who seek to do His bidding.

What is the first commandment with a promise? Put another way, it is life abundant. What is life? It is opportunity to serve the living God!

Conditions are still very serious. These have grown, in some measures, worse. The vision and the mental attitudes, they are better.
But has the body changed its mental attitude? It must be accomplished in self.
The arthritic tendencies, little that can be done that will not cause greater distresses in other
Areas, except by the diet, the massage, and the massage with oils, at least the attention in the joints and muscular forces of the body.
Cayce said the attitudes and willingness to help others must come first,
then bring the physical applications.
