5.0 out of 5 stars A warm and illuminating guide, May 29, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Edgar Cayce on Channeling Your Higher Self (Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis) (Mass Market Paperback)

Having never read any books in the Edgar Cayce series before, I found that this book not only lived up to the promise of its title, but also provided an excellent introduction to Edgar Cayce's work in general. The idea of "channelling" sounds a little dated, but the opening chapter put me at ease immediately with an explanation of this very wide-ranging word.

The remainder of the book is a thorough discussion of all kinds of channelling, from dreams, creative and inspirational writing, imagination and intuition, to the less everyday techniques of channelling other spirits, trance channelling and healing. Even in these later chapters Henry Reed does a marvellous job of providing down to earth descriptions and explanations and is quick to point out the pitfalls of some methods.

Each chapter opens with the sayings of Edgar Cayce. As a newcomer to his work I had some difficulty grasping the meaning or significance of these quotes. Henry Reed's explanations, on the other hand, I found both clear and fascinating. His illustrative diagrams I found especially illuminating. Henry Reed also draws upon his own reading and research to amplify and demonstrate his explanations.

Although this book is not really set out as a "how to" guide, there are many suggestions for meditation and other exercises, and some group exercises, which are well worth following.

In the end, channelling your higher self is about being yourself as only you can be. As Henry Reed says, "God intends for the world to have your expression. Use your intuition to know your soul's identity, your heart's true desire, and let it be." And Henry Reed has given a great deal of himself and his own love in writing this book. His warmth shines through.

As for the work of Edgar Cayce, the best recommendation I can give is that I had already bought a couple more books about him before finishing this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST-READ FOR SEARCHERS OF THE SOUL, June 8, 2000

This review is from: Edgar Cayce on Channeling Your Higher Self (Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis) (Mass Market Paperback)

An excellent book for those who are seeking answers to the mystery of the soul. This book gave me much insight into who I am and why I am here now. Do not expect to levitate after reading the book, but I can almost assure that if you are spiritually connected or even interested in spirituality in the slightest, you will reap rewards that will help you throughout the rest of your life. Don't worry if it seems like lots of repetition; it's like that for a reason. You'll see.

This book distills the information embedded in the Cayce readings to clear messages that work for me in this time and place. Really a remarkable read for how often it struck me as both profound and accessible. We all need to read this book.
