About the Author

The late Elsie Sechrist became seriously interested in parapsychology in the mid-30s. In the early 1940s she met and worked with Edgar Cayce, America's best-documented twentieth-century clairvoyant. Special emphasis was laid on research and study in the entire field of parapsychology with Cayce. While working with him, Mrs. Sechrist became adept in the art of western meditation. Meditation: Gateway to Light is a classic in its field. Her bestseller, Dreams: Your Magic Mirror, is the result of more than twenty years of exploration into the true meaning of dreams, instigated by her close association with Edgar Cayce and his philosophy of dream analysis and interpretation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Connections to Cayce Readings, Bible, and Glands, December 24, 2007

This review is from: Meditation: Gateway to Light (Paperback)

An overview of a guided meditation with a background in basic attitudes and understandings from Edgar Cayce readings and the Bible. There is much discussion about focusing on the glands. The text is a general introduction which is supplemental to other Edgar Cayce material. It is useful for those to who familiar with this kind of work, but may be difficult to access unless one is already familiar with Edgar Cayce's readings. It may not stand alone without support from other EC books. The material on glands is useful to understand other EC readings and how meditation can heal us.

I've read countless books on mediation, and this is the one I refer clients and friends to read. The chakra meditation alone is enough to keep this book in your library. A word of caution, do not loan it out. It's unlikely to be returned! It's really that good.

Discusses how to effectively pray and meditation, the role of the glands - our spiritual centers and the rewards of meditation. An excellent overall Cayce reference book.
