wind in motion, a man sitting inside may

The ancient Indian literature contains
many varied forms of aerial acrobatics,
such as Dayana (fly), Uddayana (flying
up), Sundhara (beautiful flying), Kanda
(cloud-like flying), Vyanda (quickly fly-
ing away), Karpostika (flying still or hov-
ering), Smasrina mandala vartina (uni-
formly turning).
Some Indian flying vehicles were said
to be able to mount up to Surya mandala
(“fly to the sun”), meaning the solar re-
gion—the planets! And still others could
go to the Naksatra mandala (“fly to the
stars”), which is the stellar region—the
galaxy! Now we all know how impossible
that is given that the stars are light years
away from us—so what were the ancient
Indians doing? Writing imaginative fic-
tion? Or did they have something that has
been long forgotten?
One of the palm leaf manuscripts
found in India is the Amsu Bodhini
(meaning something akin to “knowledge
of the sun’s rays”), which contains very
detailed information about metallurgy,
the origin of the universe, and the plan-
ets. The information on the planets is so
detailed that only someone who actually
traveled to them or sent flying machines
to them could know such. The informa-
tion includes the different kinds of light,
heat, color, and electromagnetic fields
of the various planets, including Earth.
And it also contains information about
the methods used to construct machines
capable of attracting solar rays and sepa-
rating this energy into its components. It
also includes instructions for the manu-
facture of machines to transport people
to other planets. Amazingly, it details
unknown alloys that the ancients used
to construct flying crafts, even ones that
cannot be seen by the human eye.
Chaldean and Babylonian Flight
But Indian texts are not the only an-
cient texts to purport the knowledge and
use of flight. In the ancient Chaldean
work The Sifrala there are more than 100
pages of technical details on building a
flying machine. It contains words that
are best translated as “graphite rod,” “cop-
per coils,” “crystal indicator,” “vibrating
spheres,” “stable angles,”
and the like. The Hakatha
(Laws of the Babylonians)
states: “The privilege of
operating a flying ma-
chine is great. The knowl-
edge of flight is among the
most ancient of our inher-
itances. A gift from those
from on high. We received
it from them as a means of saving many
lives.” Who were these beings from “on
high”? Some quickly answer, Aliens! But
the ancient literature, including the Bible
and its book of Genesis, would indicate
otherwise. Chapter six of Genesis clearly
describes three types of beings on the
earth in ancient times: humans, Nephil-
im, and the Sons of God. Edgar Cayce’s
readings indicate that those were times
when many souls were still so attuned to
the Cosmic Forces as to be like gods or
aliens to everyday humans.
Alexander the Great’s Journal of
Attacks by Air
Around 326 BC Alexander the Great
invaded India. To his surprise and the
surprise of his men, they were initially
repelled by an aerial attack of “flying fi-
ery shields.” Is it possible that some Indi-
ans still possessed flying crafts as late as
this date? Whatever the case, the Indians
were unable to sustain them and were ul-
timately defeated. (Apparently, they also
did not possess their ancient bombs, or
simply did not use them because of the
horrible suffering that had resulted from
their initial use.)
Ancient Chinese Flying “Birds”
Ancient Chinese books describe how
a Chinese craftsman named Lu Ban cre-
ated flying machines be-
tween 770-475 BC. In the
ancient book Hong Shu
are reports on how Lu Ban
made a passenger plane.
According to Youyang
Zazu (essays from Youy-
ang) of the Tang Dynasty,
Lu Ban once worked in a
place very far away from
his hometown and he missed his wife so
much that he made a “wooden bird” that
flew like a kite. Lu Ban went home on the
kite to meet his wife and returned to work
in the faraway land the next day. (Now
that’s love!)
Edgar Cayce’s Readings on Ancient Flight
Edgar Cayce explained that the strange
passage of Ezekiel’s flying machine in the
Bible was describing an Atlantean flying
ship. Here’s that reading: “Before that we
find the entity was in the Atlantean land,
during those periods particularly when
there was the exodus from Atlantis ow-
ing to those activities which were bringing
about the destructive forces. There we find
the entity was among those who were not
only in what is now known as the Yucatan
land, but also the Pyrenees and the Egyp-
tian. For the manners of transportation,
the manners of communications through

the airships of that period were such as
Ezekiel described of a much later date.”
(1859-1)
During Edgar Cayce’s deep trances,
in which he was capable of connecting
with the Akashic Records and the Uni-
versal Consciousness, he explained that
ancient peoples were indeed, for a time,
much more evolved technologically, pos-
sessing the legendary powers so often at-
tributed to the Atlanteans, including flight
through air and space. He also explained
that they gradually lost this wisdom and
ability as they became more self-centered
and earthy. This wisdom and ability re-
quired one to maintain a oneness, an at-
tunement with the Cosmic Forces. Cayce
indicates that we are in a new era in which
all the old attunements and powers will be
coming back. The question of how we use
these powers today
remains to be seen.
But so far, we are
doing pretty well,
having avoided the
expected nuclear
war and stopped
the arms race—a
feat that once ap-
peared impossible.
Consider that Cayce’s description of
Atlantean flight was by psychic means
first. This was because they were ini-
tially one with the Cosmos and Cosmic
energy and dimensions and could there-
fore “transpose” themselves from part of
the Universal to the other—body, mind,
and soul! As they became more physical
and also more desperate for physical su-
periority, they developed high-tech ma-
chines that harnessed the radiation of the
sun and stars by tuning crystals for driv-
ing the space, air, and underwater flying
machines. But as they lost even more
awareness and became more physical,
they began to develop low-tech, nature-
compatible physical devices to transport
themselves. These were those pachyderm
skins filled with gases.
It’s important to keep in mind that
Cayce saw all of us as reincarnated souls
from those ancient times. Therefore, the
wisdom of flight is latent within us and
within the collective human conscious-
ness. Flight to the stars may come faster
than we currently imagine because once
the understanding comes through the veil
separating deeper from daily conscious-
ness, we could be building and flying far-
ther than we ever imagin. When asked
if we would ever travel through space at
the speed of light, Cayce replied that we’d
be traveling at the speed of thought—the
only speed capable of traversing the dis-
tances in space. Our great breakthrough
may not be a new alloy or composite, but
a new level of consciousness.
Reading 2157-1 for a male, born in 1920.
Before that the entity was in the Atlan-
tean land, during those periods when the
second destruction had brought so many
of the islands, and when the Poseidian
land was the greater in power; when there
were the meetings called for those of many
lands, to determine means or manners in
which there would be the control or han-
dling of the animals that were destructive
to many of the lands.
The entity then acted in the capacity of
one who guided the ships that sailed both
in the air and under water; also was the
maker of that which produced the elevators
and the connecting tubes that were used by
compressed air and steam and the metals
in their emanations. All of these were a
part of the entity’s experience and develop-
ment, especially as to things controlled by
the facet for the radiation activity from the
sun upon metals, and the control of such,
as well as the manner of airships through
that sojourn.
Excerpts from 3184-1, a 30-year-old
female pilot, born in 1913, who had been
an Atlantean pilot, and was advised to
continue her career in aviation, flying to
the same areas (Iberian Peninsula and
northern Africa) she had transported
people to back then.
The entity is an Atlantean. Thus—as we
have oft indicated regarding individuals
born under such an influence—the entity
is one of exceptional
abilities, either for
weal or woe. Thus
the experience in the
earth’s plane at this
period will have far-
reaching effects upon
many. As to whether
for good or bad will
depend upon the manner in which the en-
tity uses its opportunities…
Before that (and that which the entity
is meeting most in self in the present), the
entity was in Atlantis during those periods
when there were the separations, just be-
fore the breaking up of Poseidia.
The entity then controlled those activi-
ties where communications had been es-
tablished with other lands, and the flying
boats that moved through air or water
were the means by which the entity car-
ried many of those to the Iberian land, as
well as later those groups in the Egyptian
land—when there had been the determin-
ing that the records should be kept there…
Then, do, assist in establishing the air-
ways with those peninsulas or lands of
North Africa and the Iberian Peninsula.
Do keep self first in that attitude and
purpose of a universal consciousness for
the good of all.

A Love Greater than Life—Messenger of Truth
By M. Faith
Personal Spirituality
It’s Christmas 1995, and I’m in Rome.
I’m sitting at the dressing table in my
hotel room, getting ready to meet a friend
I haven’t seen in several years. I’m looking
forward to seeing her, but I’m also feeling
sad. The trip isn’t turning out as I planned.
I’ve been entirely alone for the last two
days. Nothing seems to be working in my
life these days and now I’ve spent all this
money for a trip that feels like a failure.
As I look into the mirror, I see an aging,
lonely woman.
My thoughts drift to a friend back
home. I’m envious of her because she
recently began working with a spiritual
teacher, and she seems like a new person.
She told me that when she thanked him
for all he’d done, he had replied, “It’s okay.
That’s why we’re all here—to help one
another.” It’s time to meet my friend, so I
leave the room.
My friend is staying out in the suburbs,
so I have to take the subway. I’ve never
used the Italian subway before. I ride the
escalator down to the station and look
around—there are very few people and
there is no obvious place to purchase a
ticket. I’m anxious because I don’t like
subways, especially unfamiliar ones. I
notice a machine in the middle of the
platform. My Italian isn’t good enough to
understand the instructions that are post-
ed. I drop in the coins that are required,
but nothing happens. I try again and still
nothing happens. I become more anxious.
Suddenly, I hear a voice saying, “Is
there something I can do to help you?” I
turn and see a young man, probably ear-
ly 30s, medium height, blond curly hair,
very blue eyes, and a sweet face. He is
looking at me earnestly and says, “Please
don’t be afraid. I only want to help you.
These machines can be very confusing.” I
tell him I would be very grateful for his
help. He puts some coins in the machine
and pushes a couple of buttons and out
pops a ticket. He then takes the ticket over
to another machine a few feet away, and
the machine automatically stamps it. I am
very relieved—I would never have known
to do that.
He hands me the ticket and asks where
I’m going. I tell him I’m getting off at
Ponte Lungo. He smiles and says that is
where he is going and asks if I’d like him
to accompany me. Again, he says, “don’t
be afraid.” I thank him—awkwardly—and
accept his offer. As we wait for the train, I
ask him about himself. He says his name
is Adrian, he’s from Scotland, he’s been
living in Rome for a few years. I ask him
if he is married and he pauses and replies
vaguely, “Yes, I once was.”
The train arrives and we sit down next
to each other. We chat some more. Then
he tells me ours is the next stop. I tell him
how much I appreciate his help and he re-
plies, “It’s okay. That’s why we’re all here—
to help one another.” His words are not
particularly profound, but the coincidence
stuns me and I can’t bring myself to say
anything or even look at him. I stare at the
floor as we step off the train and start for
the escalator. I’m trying to think of some-
thing to say when he suddenly says, “May
I tell you something?” I glance at him side-
ways and his expression is again earnest.
He says, “You are a very beautiful woman.”
That was truly unexpected
and now I really can’t think
of anything to say. He again
says, “please don’t be afraid. I
just need to tell you that you
are a beautiful woman.” I’m
not at all afraid—but I do feel
overwhelmed and my knees
are a little shaky. I mumble a
thank you as we head up the
escalator. Now, we’re stand-
ing in front of the bar where
I’m meeting my friend. She’s
not there yet, so I offer to buy
him a coffee. He says he needs to go and
we shake hands. For a moment, every-
thing around me stops, and I realize that
his hand is very, very hot, as though he
has a dangerously high fever, but he looks
in complete health. The moment passes.
We say “ciao” to each other. He turns and
leaves.
As he walks away, I give myself a mental
shake, still feeling a bit disoriented. Then
it occurs to me that what has made this
seemingly ordinary encounter particu-
larly odd was that, throughout, Adrian
was entirely focused on me. From hello to
goodbye, he didn’t pay attention to other
people or look at his surroundings. I
couldn’t remember ever experiencing that
with another person.
So, a few weeks later, I am home and
talking on the phone to another friend. She
is a psychic, and she is reading her cards
for me. Apropos of nothing, she suddenly
says, “Oh, Mary, you didn’t tell me you met
an angel when you were in Rome!”
Until then, I hadn’t allowed myself to
think of Adrian as an angel. The encoun-
ter felt extraordinary to me, but I told
myself that I was getting carried away. Be-
sides, what was the purpose of the visit?
God sends angels to people to help in a
crisis or to bring messages, I thought.
Why would God send an angel to talk to
me about physical beauty? It didn’t make
sense to me.
Then one day recently, I attended a
lecture about angels. The speaker was
so knowledgeable and down-to-Earth; I
hung on her every word. Afterward, I got
up the courage to ask if she would read my

story about Adrian and she agreed. A few
days later, she wrote back saying that she
felt certain that my experience had been
a real angel encounter. She also said that
a long time ago someone had sent her a
Sufi poem, and, after reading my story,
she knew it was meant to be shared with
me. When I read it, I knew my story final-
ly had an ending. I understood Adrian’s
message, and I no longer needed to doubt:
…Then, from the heights of those experi-
ences, those hierarchies in the earth and in
the air, we come as messengers of truth to
those who will hear, and question. (Edgar
Cayce reading 254-83)
M. FAITH has been a spiritual seeker for
more than 25 years, and more recently a
student of the Edgar Cayce readings. They
have changed her life. She lives and works
in Virginia Beach.
Q. Did Edgar Cayce have any helpful
suggestions about memory loss?
A. Yes, the readings had some com-
ments about what memory is, what
causes memory loss, and also sugges-
tions for how to retain information for
young students and older adults. A few
examples are included here, and more
can be found in the online readings by
searching words such as—memory, re-
member, and forget.
Q. How can I improve memory and
concentration?
A. Study well that which has been giv-
en through these sources on Meditation.
Through meditation may the greater
help be gained… Do it and leave the re-
sults to the Creative Forces; for they are
a part of thee. (987-2 Female, 47)
Q. Why is it difficult for me to remember?
A. It isn’t difficult! It’s rather trained
in self to forget! See the differentiation
between forgetting and remembering,
is—memory is the exercising of the
inner self as related to thought. To ac-
knowledge that the memory is poor, is
to say you don’t think much! The forget-
ting is to say that the thought becomes
self-centered, for memory is thought—
even as thought is memory, brought to
the forefront by the association of ideas.
(69-2 Female, 48)
Mostly when individuals forget it is
because something within themselves,
all their inner consciousness, has re-
belled—and they prepare to forget.
(5022-1 Male, 9)
Q. What can the entity do to sharpen
her memory of names, directions, people?
A. As has been indicated, as during the
experiences of the entity much of these
very factors became a part, associate
same with places, conditions, circum-
stances. Just as one has read, and as the
entity did in its interpreting of the law
and in its aid to make same read as it
were, individuals are experiences, are
places—as well as individuals.
So in sharpening the memory, the as-
sociations of same with places, dates,
times, make for the drawing as it were
of the whole picture. (189-3 Female, 42)
…the reflexes to the reactions in the
sensory forces are gradually being im-
paired, so that the lapse of memory is
gradually coming about, or the inabil-
ity to retain a visualized reflection…
(2598-1 Female, 64)
Q. Will you give me suggestions as to
how to improve my work in school, and
my memory?
A. Let that be rather as this: That
which ye would attain in the studies as
to that which is a text, a thesis or a the-
ory—mull same as it were in thy mind,
in thy consciousness. Then lay it aside,
and meditate rather upon its applica-
tion in every way and manner. Do this
especially just before ye would rest …
from physical conscious-
ness—or in sleep. And
ye will find thy memory,
thy ability to analyze, thy
ability to maintain and
retain greater principles
will be thy experience.
(1581-2 Male, 12)

Many adults recall lining up as
children with their siblings while
Mom administered a daily spoonful of
cod-liver oil to each. The fishy taste of this
nutriment is strongly imprinted on their
memories, leaving the impression that
the worse something tastes, the better it
is for you!
Cod-liver oil ranks high in health ben-
efits not only for children, but also for
adults, containing more vitamins A and D
per unit weight than regular fish oil. (See
also Jan-Mar 2011 Venture Inward) The
oil is extracted from the liver of the cod
and other related fish, most of which are
harvested from the waters off the coast of
Norway. The stringently regulated Nor-
wegian processing plants plus careful U.S.
testing ensure a purity level that is safe for
consumption, since the oil sold in most
stores contains no preservatives. With its
beneficial vitamin content and omega-3
fatty acids, cod-liver oil contributes to
healthy brains, hearts, eyes, and nervous
and immune systems.
It is mentioned in nearly 140 read-
ings, about 50 of which recommend a
simple and easy way of consuming it: in
a concentrated tablet form. White’s, the
preferred brand at that time, is no longer
available. [Ed. Note: Baar.com, A.R.E.’s
supplier of Cayce-related health products,
has Cod-liver oil in softgels.]
For Children’s Health
Not surprisingly cod-liver oil gets an
endorsement in a number of readings
given for infants and children (often de-
scribed as a “developing body”). For one
nine-year-old girl: “…Cod Liver Oil…is a
part of a normal development…” (1179-3);
to a 15-year-old girl, it “is an addition to
a developing body in making for not only
the structural activity, but throughout the
lymph and all that necessary to supply the
vitamins needed.” (276-5)
A further reference to vitamins was
given to a nine-year-old boy: “[Cod-liver
oil] is always good for developing bodies,
for it carries those vitamins that are not
found in but very few foods.” (758-33) The
oil also “aids in creating resistance” (2824-
3); this for a four-month-old boy who was
advised to have the oil three times a week,
rather than daily, in keeping with his age
level. A six-year-old girl was told that
cod-liver oil “carries the properties neces-
sary for the developments of the digestive
system, see?” (4281-7)
In several instances, mostly for those
less than a year old, the oil was even to be
massaged into the body. The mother of a
one-month-old boy suffering from a cold
wanted to start the cod-liver oil for his
tooth development. “This should not be
in great quantities,” the reading advised.
“However, if there will be used a little of
the Cod Liver Oil in that rubbed over the
body—not just baby oil but a combination
of same with the Cod Liver Oil, you see—it
will be most beneficial.” (1788-2)
A nine-month-old boy was given that
an external (rather than internal) applica-
tion of the oil would be better: “…at the
present the absorption of [cod-liver oil]
through the rubs will be more efficacious
for the system. A little bit later the taking
of it internally would be better.” (1801-1)
For Anemia
In keeping with its blood-building
properties, cod-liver oil is recommended
in cases of anemia, for it “would carry the
vitamins and sufficient of the iron’s cre-
ations for the food value, better than iron
taken in the system.” (773-5) For those
tending toward anemia, cod-liver oil “will
assist the body in overcoming [this] ten-
dency…counteracting with the forces of the
body in replenishing and rebuilding nerve
energy for the system.” (5409-1)
When a 28-year-old woman asked for
suggestions for building up her blood, the
reading advised: “As a tonic for the body…
we would give rather the White’s Cod Liver
Oil Tablets.” (1688-1) Comments from
other readings refer to its usefulness in
nourishing and stimulating the blood,
even helping to “rebuild the tissue of the
digestive and of the blood supplying system,
especially through those portions where
blood is turned into chyle for the replen-
ishing of new blood in the body.” (5648-
1) Chyle is formed in the small intestine
from the stomach’s digested food, is ab-
sorbed by the lacteals, and passes into the
bloodstream by way of the thoracic duct,
the main channel of our lymphatic system.
As with any Cayce remedy that one
uses to treat a disease process, the rec-
ommended item is not taken singly but
is almost always incorporated with other
treatments, often in a cyclic fashion, in
conjunction with other remedies and
activities.
For Assimilation
The importance of nutrition in rela-
tion to health plays a prominent role in
the readings, putting Cayce far ahead
of his time in this regard. According to
Dr. Harold J. Reilly, the word assimila-
tion, as Cayce used it, “is the individual’s
capacity to utilize the food and the body’s
performance of the complicated metabolic
processes of digestion and elimination of
indigestible material.” (The Edgar Cayce

A 48-year-old woman was told: “White’s
Cod Liver Oil tablets [would] create better
assimilations and give to the gastric forces
of the digestive system those incentives and
elements that will make for sustaining and
resuscitating forces in that assimilated.”
(428-7) For a 23-year-old male, the tablets
would “be effective in creating the proper as-
similation, and giving the general strength,
vitality and virility necessary for the devel-
oping forces of the body…” (5655-3)
Additional Benefits
In cases of general debilitation, fatigue,
and digestive issues, the readings recom-
mend the use of cod-liver oil, again em-
phasizing its body- and blood-building
properties. As a stimulant to the digestive
and assimilating systems, it builds resis-
tance in the body, keeps away colds, re-
generates the liver, and causes better thy-
roid functioning.
For preventing colds, cod-liver oil “car-
ries the greater amount of the vitamins nec-
essary to aid in producing in the activities
of the blood supply resistances against cold;
provided the diets are kept alkalin[e] rather
than a tendency towards acids.” (1158-3)
Along with other oils (such as olive
oil), it gives “a new coating to the portion
of the intestinal system from stomach to the
colon” (5566-2). When feces remain too
long in the colon, infection may result;
cod-liver oil keeps the digestive tract “well
irrigated…necessary to prevent infections
throughout the system…” (4738-1)
Dosage
In tablet form the readings suggest
from one to three daily; that is, one tablet
after each meal: breakfast, lunch, and/or
dinner. In one instance Cayce specified
one-half hour after the meal. Others were
advised to take two tablets in the evening
prior to retiring; or one tablet every other
day; or two tablets twice daily. Sometimes
a series was suggested; for example, take
the recommended dosage three to five
days in a row, rest for the same length of
time, then repeat; or take for three to four
weeks, then one week off, and repeat.
In liquid form the recommendations
include one dessertspoon once or twice
daily (a dessertspoon is approximately
10 ml or about 2 teaspoons); or one
tablespoon every morning; or 1/2 tea-
spoon daily.
One gentleman was told: “Take as much
cod liver oil as the body can assimilate.”
(230-1) How do you know when you’ve
reached that point? Too great a quantity
may cause the oil to become “rancid in
the system, or disagreeable to the body. [If
this occurs,] leave off until the body is able
to assimilate more…” (4314-1) “…for [it]
is detrimental when not being assimilated
by the system, for it acts as an irritant to
the gastric and to the juices of the intes-
tines and digestion, when not assimilated.”
(4874-3)
Cayce suggested starting with small
amounts; however, if you are getting suf-
ficient doses of sunlight on a regular basis
or enough oils (olive, calves’ liver, tripe,
etc.) in your diet, you may not need cod-
liver oil—or only need it “until there is a
change in the appetite, in the strength, in
the vitality and virility of the body.” (313-3)
Today, to combat its unpleasant taste,
cod-liver oil can be taken in softgel cap-
sules. To reword an old proverb, a capsule
a day will keep the doctor away! G

MORE ON ALUMINUM
By Elaine Hruska
Shortly after I completed research about
aluminum cookware, a health column,
entitled “The People’s Pharmacy,” written
by Joe and Teresa Graedon, addressed the
aluminum/Alzheimer’s relationship (The
Houston Chronicle, June 8, 2013).
Replying to a rather irate reader who
felt that the Graedons were creating un-
necessary worry about the “myth” of the
relationship between aluminum cook-
ware and Alzheimer’s (stating that they
were “still flogging a dead horse”), the
couple described some rather recent re-
search studies.
(1) Aluminum is linked to neurotox-
icity, even dementia—as reported in Im-
munologic Research online (April 2013).
(2) Aluminum has been found in
higher concentrations in the brains of
Alzheimer’s patients—as reported in
the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease online
(Vol. 35, No. 1, 2013).
(3) A growing concern exists regard-
ing the link between aluminum and the
development of the devastating disease
of Alzheimer’s—as reported in Clinical
Biochemistry (January 2013).
(4) From a preliminary study comes
the discovery that drinking silicon-rich
mineral water will help remove alumi-
num from the body; it also may improve
one’s cognition—as reported in the Jour-
nal of Alzheimer’s Disease (Vol. 33, No. 2,
2013).
Despite some hesitation to confirm a
link between the two, the steady flow of
research studies continues to point out
that the controversy between aluminum
exposure and brain toxicity refuses to
disappear. G

MASSAGE RESEARCH SURVEY RELEASED
The American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), founded in 1943, released its
sixth annual research report early in 2013, giving pro-
fessional massage therapists a better view of their mar-
ket and its trends. (Massage Therapy Today, April 2013)
According to the 2013 Industry Fact Sheet, “more
massage therapists received referrals from health care
professionals in 2012 than 2011 with particular in-
creases from hospitals and medical offices (51% in
2012 versus 46% in 2011) and chiropractors and integrated health clinics (67% in 2012
versus 63% in 2011).” Employment opportunities were also affected; the overall health
care industry employment grew 2% higher in 2012 over 2011 by 17 million.
Though consumers still continue to believe in the efficacy of massage, the survey not-
ed that, even with massage therapists working more hours on the average in 2012, fewer
people actually received massages. Approximately 34.5 million people received a total of
145 million massages in 2012, a 15% decline from the 170.5 million massages received in
the U.S. by 37.9 million people in 2011. Yet the health care industry offers a number of
opportunities to employ those wishing to do massage at the professional level.
The popularity of massage has skyrocketed since the time Cayce was giving readings
for one of the most frequently recommended modalities for maintaining health, balance,
and healing. A number of A.R.E. centers throughout the world offer massage as a specific
therapy, and the Cayce/Reilly® School of Massotherapy, in operation since 1987 in Vir-
ginia Beach, Virginia, has graduated 1,200 professional therapists trained in the Cayce/
Reilly method of massage (visit CayceReilly.edu for more information).

It is not necessary that there be other
than a competent and a spiritual-minded
nurse; preferably such should be minded
toward Christian Science, but willing to
use these suggestions [for treatment given
earlier].
For the powers within must be spiri-
tualized. Not that the body [3455] is not
spiritual-minded, but there is the neces-
sity to be spiritual-minded and then able
to gain control sufficiently over the power
of mind in the body as to cause the vi-
brations from the atomic structures to
produce health-giving forces, rather than
taking the continual suggestions “I’m sick
and going to stay sick.”
These reactions should be brought
about by suggestion as well as [the needed
physical] application. For know, as was
given from the beginning, it is necessary to
subdue the earth. Man is made, physical-
ly, from every element within the earth.
So, unless there is a coordination of those
elements of the environs in which the an-
imal-man operates, he is out of attune—
and some portions [of the body] suffer.
He must contain and command those
elements. These [suggestions of physical
treatments] are subduing, using, control-
ling; not being controlled by but control-
ling, those [material] environs, and influ-
ences about same [this body]. G
