ANIMATED ASH EDGAR CAYCE'S CANCER REMEDY ANIMATED ASH CAYCE'S CANCER EDGAR REMEDY Inspired by the psychic readings of Edgar Cayce, this bio-energetics researcher is investigating Animated Ash for its promise in treating cancer. ancer: now there's a scary word. It strikes down hundreds of thousands of people each year in the United States alone. It's indiscriminate, it's baffled the best minds on the planet for decades despite virtually unlimited resources at their fingertips, and it's lethal. It's seldom discussed in public because it strikes fear into the heart and soul of social consciousness like no other malady save the black plague, influenza or possibly contemporary HIV. Where it comes from, nobody knows. How it got here is anybody's guess. And what you do about it, if it happens to show up in your body, usually involves surrendering the body, mind and spirit to a medical slash-and-burn approach, which makes the disease itself seem somewhat palatable. No one who has been through conventional Western cancer therapy would ever wish it upon their worst enemy. And yet, the beat goes on, one dying patient at a time. Conventional therapy destroys the very immune system which maintains a healthy body in equilibrium. Residing amidst the most highly sophisticated and technological society on the globe, the allopathic community is in agreement: we will attempt to destroy malig- nant cell growth in the body with radiation and chemotherapy and, when appropriate, remove tumours, glands and organs which have fallen under the siege of this ravenous disease. And although the natural health community has provided us with precious few beacons of hope in the war against cancer, in general the fear is too great and the price too heavy for the average person to walk away from established treatment. In truth, our patterns of acceptance and denial about this most devastating of conditions are rooted deep within the collective psyche, and few dare to question the monolith in place at the centre of our group cultural being. Interestingly, I fall into this group. I even take a certain pride in being one of the fold. And it was never my intention to devise a complementary approach to the treatment of cancer. The story becomes more intriguing because I was neither particularly interested in nor educated about the concept of cellular malignancy or the means by which a reversal of such a condition could be derived. In truth, I fell into this study quite by accident. And even now, following more than a year of contemplation and preliminary research, I'm still uncertain as to the potential application of my findings in the everyday world of cancer treatment. But before I get ahead of myself, let's take a look at these fundamentals, to lay the groundwork for further investigations. THE BIO-ELECTROMAGNETICS OF CANCER When I say I had no particular interest in the nature of cell malignancy, I mean to sug- gest that my area of expertise lay elsewhere, and not that I was completely naive about the subject. I knew, for instance, that the Cayce perspective had suggested that there were approximately 20 varieties of cancer, and that the underlying cause was placed squarely on blood cell imbalances, complicated by ineffective or inefficient lymph drainage. Toxicity leading to cell breakdown is, of course, a running theme in the readings. I came from a background in natural health and during the 1980s pioneered the advent of vibrational medicine by means of the Edgar Cayce Radial Active and Wet Cell appli- ances. I was influenced primarily by the work of three leading researchers, all from con- ventional medicine: Meg Patterson, the Scottish physician who laid the groundwork for drug interdependence via outside brainwave restructuring; Robert Becker, the American researcher who sought to understand the nature of limb regeneration in frogs and salaman- ders; and Bjorn Nordenstrém, the Swedish radiologist who will probably go down in the by Phil Thomas © 1998 PO Box 1379 Virginia Beach, Virginia 23451, USA Telephone: +1 (757) 422 8513 JUNE — JULY 1999 NEXUS - 45 by Phil Thomas © 1998
