Edgar Cayce on the Revelation: A Study Guide for Spiritualizing Body and Mind [Paperback]

John Van Auken (Author), Charles Thomas Cayce (Foreword)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 19, 2005

For almost two millennia, the Book of Revelation has fascinated and puzzled people with its dazzling imagery and apocalyptic warnings—perhaps never more so than today, as demonstrated by the blockbuster Left Behind series. In this amazing guide to spiritual living, Edgar Cayce—one of the most famous psychics in history—offers a fresh and wholly original interpretation of Revelation. According to Cayce’s writings, which have been pulled together by John Van Auken from many different sources, the symbols and places in Revelation are actually represented in people’s minds and bodies, meaning that careful study of the book can lead to an enriching spiritual experience. Cayce’s insights open up this often impenetrable text, yielding a fresh and rewarding look at an ancient touchstone.

This review is from: Edgar Cayce on the Revelation: A Study Guide for Spiritualizing Body and Mind (Paperback)

This book is a study guide and explanation of the mystic readings of Edgar Cacye as given to him in a sleep state by his guide. The first part gives an overview of what his readings revealed chapter by chapter through the Bible book of Revelation. After the study, the actual readings with the actual reading numbers as recorded by Cayce's secretary are listed. Those who have not studied Edgar Cacye's readings may find this book confusing, and may want to begin with "The Sleeping Profit" so they gain an understand of the readings, what the numbers represent, and how Cacye was but a vessel for mystical information to be revealed to mankind in this time and age. This book is not an easy read, and will take time to absorb the teachings. What the author does, however, is combine readings and place them in an order the reader can understand in accordance with the writings of Revelation in The Bible

This review is from: Edgar Cayce on the Revelation: A Study Guide for Spiritualizing Body and Mind (Paperback)

This is one of the most facinating books I have read about Revelation. It is almost a step by step guide to spiritualize your mind and body. I like the way the author states this process is not only a journey of the individual but of humanity as group to undertatke. This book will be understood best by students of metaphysics 101 or those who have previous exposure to the Edgar Cayce materials. Also, there are many of the same symbols and achetypes used in Revelation that the tarot uses, so tarot devotees will enjoy this book as well.

This review is from: Edgar Cayce on the Revelation: A Study Guide for Spiritualizing Body and Mind (Paperback)

I'm a Catholic but don't have a problem with Edgar Cayce & reincarnation. I think this is because Cayce readings really stress the traits as a Christian I believe in...kindness, forgiveness, longsufferingness! (is that a word)?! prayer etc. I try to read the Bible everyday because for me it really is soul food...nothing compares except the Mass. Cayce's books always feel like such a comfort, though. This book, to summarize, is about getting rid of our selfishness. And it explains the Revelation. I'm on my second reading because it was rather difficult the first time through. Rather dense. Very recommended.
