Hi Venerina,
Edgar Cayce was a man way beyond his time. I had read several books about the"Sleeping Prophet" and one thing always stood out in my mind. As you pointed out, he had many skeptics calling him all sorts of names and denouncing his abilities. Edgar never jumped on any Band Wagon and said "Here I Am." He was a very gentle, simple man that sought to help people. There were many times that he would not accept payment for his help. He was just happy to help people. I believe I read six to eight books pertaining to Edgar Cayce. I am glad that you put this forum up because you might say that he was my hero. There was one account when a group of scientists that did not believe in his powers set up an experiment. It was somewhere in New York in a High Rise building. (You know exactly what I'm referring to) Edgar reclined on a bed or couch, all windows were closed, and I believe nailed shut, and when Edgar fell into an uncontious state, his body levitated, went through the window without breaking the glass, and floated to the next window in a different apartment, and settled in a bed or couch in that apartment. When he awoke, he had no idea that he had been transported from one room to the next. Even though there were several witnesses that observed this phenomenon from beginnig to end, and passerbys on the streets below pointed towards the floating being there were still those that claimed that it was all a hoax. Edgar Cayce proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that all things were possible and that the human mind as well as body can and does travel to different plains. Although many accounts were written about this man, I don't believe he ever received a single penny in royalties or anything else. His story about Atlantis, as you know, was followed by a partial revelation that what happened to Atlantis will happen again. He always stressed the point that we must live according to God's Will. Edgar was an intriguing yet simple person. He did not like people fussing over him, he did not take credit for his powers claiming that it was God's Will not his own, and he often did not know what had occured during his unconcious state.
The transcendental world is very, very real, however one must be extremely careful in how they put it to use. Many of Edgars readings did not make sense at the time, however if you were to gather all of his readings and predictions from the forties you will find that Edgar Cayce was the only person in history that was DEAD on in every single prediction he ever made. Up until and including IRAQ.
Thank you so much for this. Hopefully this will inspire those that had not heard about Edgar Cayce before this to read up on this Gentle Giant.
GOD BLESS YOU
Mike
