The Edgar Cayce Bible Companion is an extensive collection of thoughts and commentaries given by America's Sleeping Prophet. Being that I am an avid reader of his material, this book is an excellent addition to my collection. It is difficult to grasp the true essence of God since we are all individuals with intrinsically varying backgrounds. Still, this primer of Cayce's readings that have become an attempt to enlighten and guide our hearts and minds toward an understanding of God and a divine plan for humanity comes highly recomended for those seeking possibilities and revelation to the age old question: Why are we here? With subject matter ranging from The Christ, Karma, the Nature of God, Soul Growth, Faith, Prayer & Meditation, this book not only gives vison and hope, but direction and assuredness in mankinds divine place under one God. It is true that not all things are for all concerned. Yet, as in any search for self awareness, the doors to be opened come as they are as we approach them. Edgar Cayce's ability, and gift, should not be denied a chance to give deffinition to that cause. I highly recommend this book, as I would any that relate to the work and study of Cayce.

I have an extensive library of Cayce material, and have been a disciple of Edgar Cayce for more than thirty years, but this is the only Cayce book which I regret buying. I find nothing redeemable in this book, and instead of inspiring me, I become so irritated by the entire tone of the book that I end up hurling it across the room. I bought the book hoping for explanations of some of the riddles in the Bible, but instead it is nothing more than the same riddles repeated in different words, and in some cases where a specific question is asked, the explanation doesn't fit the question, and amounts to nothing more than preaching the exact same text in different words. I also find the occasional offhand remarks by the author to be really out of place in a work of this sort - he gives the occasional interpretation of Edgar Cayce's interpretation of a Biblical text - I mean really! - if Cayce's interpretation is too vague to understand, then the book is a waste of time, on the other hand, if Cayce's interpretation makes sense, why does the author need to explain it - and who has qualified him to understand Cayce's interpretations better than any other reader? The author also inserts his own opinions about certain questions, which is simply using Edgar Cayce's name as a vehicle for propogating interpretations which were not Cayce's

I have read many self-help books...but never have I read a complete composition of strength, attitude, self-ability and growth all wrapped in one beautiful package. Edgar Cayce has an ability to see with his heart AND mind at the same time. A gift most of us dont have. I pray to God that I can have that gift some day. Until then....keep reading Edgar Cayce. Your life will become richer~~~believe it or not!
