Edgar Cayce on the Arcane Mysteries

• 254-27 4. (Q) What should Edgar Cayce, if anything, do in this and the adjoining vicinity to make known the work, and his ideals in respect to same.
• (A) In the same vicinity, in the district, in the WHOLE WORLD, distribute that as has been outlined here, see? Not as something emblazoned as something new; not as something as an idea; not as something as a mystery; not as something that is a side show - but rather as offering of self in service to him who would come, see?
• 275-33 16. Hence, directing in that which may - through associations of eating - give to a soul the harmonies necessary for the better attunement and unfoldment of the sources of force or power from within is within the ken of the entity's activity, even in the earth's sphere in the present; provided the entity will but harken to that from within.
• 439-1 individual development from within; through the seeking within self to know not only the mystery and rote that may come in the mysticisms of life, but in the occult influences.
• 454-2 7. In the influences seen in that of Uranus and of Neptune, we find all conditions as pertain to the occult and mysterious, or mystery, are interesting to the entity. Those of peculiar force, power, or influence - no matter whether it be of the mental or of a secular or religious cult, each have for the entity some influence as calls for a TOUCHING of same, an understanding of same. In the mystic influences, kept aright - these make for, as has first been given, many of the changes in the life, in THIS experience, for the entity. In the occult, to THIS entity, will come the most satisfying of experiences; for these, as has ever been, are rather of the independent or individual nature; and as the entity has studied, will study, those of the influences as make for characteristics, personalities, individualities, of entities as are used or influenced by such associations as the occult influence (this in the broader sense), so the entity may find within self, and self's experiences of contacts, the GREATER portion of satisfaction.
• 8. In the combination, then, of these influences - and as the entity has applied self as respecting same:
• 9. Nature provides, then, through such influences, the entity - the natural leader of many groups.
• learned much of that that makes for INNATELY the activities of the introspective experience, and occult forces are those that come to the experience of the entity from that sojourn. Hence symbols, symbolism - the moon, the stars, the many - as the sands and palms - mean much. PALMS, and the palm leaves, should ever be worn by the entity in the experiences where the entity would be commanding.
• 454-2 In the present, those of the hangings - those of the futuristic designs, that have for their background the old form of Egyptian culture, are especially near and dear to the entity, and those of the rhythmic lines of body, of the Eastern - or what is called the oriental - are to the entity as music of the inner self. Also we find that those of SOME peculiar odors, as of incense during the period, have their influence upon the entity.
• 16. In the present, these experiences - especially in that of the rebuilding in the temple, those in that of the Egyptian - will bring the greater experiences to the entity, and may be used, builded, or applied in the present experience to gain the greater understanding of self and self's association, self's relation, and that required of self. Build that, and there may be no question to self in meeting every word, every act, as it passes in the moral. "AS we sow, so shall we reap." Keeping self in attune to those calls that made for an understanding of man's relationship to man, man's relationship to the Creative Energy; opening for the soul of many that of the divine heritage as MUST lie within; knowing that would a soul [if a soul would] separate itself, it is of its own doing, for the will of the Creative Energy is that all may be One in Him; for the life, the light, the water of life, is as that Word that was made flesh, that man might know its true relationships to the divine; knowing that - whether expression from self is in written word, or in word that is enacted upon the stage, or whether in the group or whether in the individual consultations - these are WORDS of truth. Be NOT afraid, for I, the Lord, am THY GOD, if YE will be my people.
• 640-1 8. The interests from the Neptune sojourn make for the love of the mystery, and that which will pertain unto the mysteries in the earth - or those as the relationships towards which the body-mind throughout its intent and developments in the earth has been inclined; those things that have made for the change in the mysterious forces in individuals, groups and masses; hence those things that pertain to the chemical world or those that pertain to the chemical-electrical world that give life and take life in the ELEMENTAL forces of the activities in a material world. For, as the mysteries of nature are ever in the experience of the entity, so does the mind in its abilities separate itself in these directions. Well to keep these separate from the social and the material affairs, but not so separate as to create or build the selves that accompany each and every entity in its sojourn in and through the earth - two or more personalities!
• 14. Hence in the present the directing of the activities in chemical engineering, that makes for associations with first causes or first principles; as the elements - not only herbs, trees, but the soil itself, as to its relationships to that which may build in the experience of individuals as they apply themselves in the toil of the soil; or as those things that may apply to the various elements and chemical formations in the earth in its relationships to the commercial activities of man; or in those things of the lower forces in the electrical engineering; or a combination of these - as to HOW the lower forms of electrical forces change or alter the chemical influences in earth, air, water, fire - or the elements.
• 16. The entity then was among those who, as would be termed in the present, combined the elements to add to body-building as applied to the spiritual sources of healing. This should need an explanation all its own, if the entity applies self - in his developments or studies in the field of chemical engineering.
• 670-1 interested in things dealing with the nature of inventions; such as traps, catches, things dealing with the activities out of doors, peculiar character of springs, locks, fastenings, that deal with the mysterious activities or workings in wood, that would deal with anything having to do with the mysterious influences or that are as a mystery in the experience of one.
• For, it is not all of life alone to live nor all of death to die, to those that have visioned - and do vision - that purpose for which the experience of an entity is engaged in its passage through any particular experience in the earth.
• 26. Then, first find self - and the promptings of the inner self. What are the motivative influences in the experience? And enjoin self in those things that may deal with the constructive force in the creating of new experiences for man, in the activative forces of those things that become creative in the material plane these will offer an outlet for the abilities of the entity that will bring material-mental success to the experience of the entity. Or join with those who may be in that field of activity of the scientific research into other fields, where there are the development for the searching for lost or hidden civilizations or activities. This will bring the experience to the entity, through the abilities, for the creating of aids and helps to man's experience - in its active forces from without - which will bring understanding in many of the fields of activity of the entity.
• 764-1 Then, when thou enterest in, ATTUNE thyself rather with the harp cords of thine own inner self to the periods of intuitional influence that will make thee in accord with that thou hast gained in Judea. And it will flow as from the fountain of life.
• 900-14 In Neptune, those of the mysticism, mystery, spiritual insight, spiritual development.
• The Mercury influence of mental understanding of each.
• Then, with the mental insight into the operative elements of ennobling, of virtues, of good, of beautiful, with the mysteries of the universal forces, given understanding, brings the development to soul's forces. For the soul feeds upon that environment to which the mental guides and directs, and the expectancy is that soul development that each entity must exercise through will.
• These we find are at times adverse to ennobling forces, and may be made to appear in self to coincide with mysteries of life; using will then to know that each and every such condition must be brought under those forces of Jupiter and Neptune, that this influence, through will, will be turned into that which will bring the better conditions in the life's plane. For with the mental carrying such conditions of any intrigue against ennobling influence in earth's plane, or carrying such intrigue that bring the mysteries of life to naught, these we see work condemnation rather than blessings in the life of an entity. Hence the warnings as given of the Moon's influence at times in the earth's plane. Will used directly. Warding against such conditions becoming detrimental to the body's development.
• 900-145 Immediately there is seen that the appeal in such a manner is to that portion of the mental which does not reach to either of those necessary for the perfect understanding, but rather to the mystery, or to the understanding of those who only seek the moment's understanding of any condition
• 900-359 remembering that in application, as has been given, does the entity find the truths as are being sought by the mental consciousness of self, and in this way there comes the understanding; for in physical or material, or individual application do the laws as concerning truths become established, by one studying any element of such conditions, whether these are of the physical, mental or spiritual nature. [1/4/28 See 900-3606 continuing information in above.]
• While it is true all force is of one emanation, and the various phases of its activity is relative according to another's individual activity towards that being manifested.
• relativity of force; for rather is that of the action of the mental consciousness controlling or urging through its relative application of self to universal forces, than to subconscious; for when we speak of subconscious forces and universal forces we are speaking of one and the same; yet it is understood that the subconscious forces of any individual, whether from the physical plane or alive sensuously in the physical plane, or the subconscious forces of a cosmic entity - we are reasoning only from one faculty of a universal consciousness, or a universal relativity of force. Just so, when one would reason from that of the mental flesh consciousness, or the mental application of the individual toward the information as would be obtained through anyone, or this individual in particular as seen in vision - when in the subconscious or unconscious, or in attunement with the universe - then may consciousnesses, and not one, is contacted; and the relative position of the individual so conducting such is as of one among MANY activities of a mental consciousness toward that of the consciousness or consciousnesses from which such information would be or is being obtained.
  Hence that as has been given, that one of the negative [passive state] - rather than positive - would obtain the better results from such experiences or such manifestations for another seeking information from such sources, see? or again this as is seen gives the outlet for the entity to explain, as given, that taking place when such phenomena through the channel seen is in the state of activity.
• Yet ever is that sixth, seventh or eighth sense of the entity alert to the various responses as received by the inner self through the various experiences of life.
• 953-24 6. During this period was the completion of the memorial standing as the mystery of the ages to-day [the sphinx], and this, as is seen, represents this councillor to the kings, for, as is seen in the figure itself, not as one of the kings made in beast form, yet overseeing, supervising, giving council, giving strength, to the kings before and the kings since. The face, even as was given then, is the representation of this councillor to this great people. These, and many findings, as given, may be found in the base of the left forearm, or leg, or the prostrate beast, in the base of foundation. Not in the underground CHANNEL (as was opened by the ruler many years, centuries, later), but in the real base, or that as would be termed in the present parlance as the cornerstone.
• 7. In the force of this as may, then, be brought in the present day (for, as given, many come under the present guidance of the entity), the entity guided much, physically and mentally, by entities in that same realm. Then in the present there is still seen that many take council from these forces as set in motion, and will bring much good to the peoples in the earth's plane for many, many, more centuries to come, for, with this arising again of the powers as may be set, and as ARE set, through the efforts, the entity will bring much, much, in every field, to the peoples, even in greater mysteries than the sphinx, the representative of the entity, has produced in the last centuries as passed.
• (A) In this period there was the caravan, a portion of the lost forces as were seen in the lighter than air, and the forces of the force, as given, propelling in water. 953-24 Page 3
• 9. (Q) What, please, was the mode of transportation of the emissaries to the notable gathering often mentioned in readings?
• (A) Lighter than air, as was seen, the beginning of the sacred fires from India, through the skins as of animals that were being destroyed and made into those great bayous (?), as would be today termed balloons. These became the mode of travel for the peoples in the emissaries' gathering from the five nations, peoples or places, of man's indwelling.
• 963-1 34. Before that we find the entity was in that now called the Egyptian land, during those periods when there were the rebellions and the uprisings, during that period when the Priest was banished to the Abyssinian land.
• 991-1 THIS is the mystery, which is SO SIMPLE that those who are wise in their own conceit stumble over same. "Like begets like."
• 1033-1 27. And the entity aided with those in setting about in Gilgal to set up the ark of the covenant, and the places round about. While only aiding in same, the entity made not for the correlation of the peoples roundabout but rather for the establishings of the household of faith to those activities in that new environ.
• 1159-1 25. For of the entity's own peoples then were the first of the Syro-Phoenician groups extended off the borders of the Mediterranean; yea, even beyond the borders of what ye now term as the Canary Island, even into the Sargasso Sea - that into which the caldrons of the earth were turned with the destructive forces in the Poseidian land in its last activity,
• 30. Before that we find the entity was in the land now called the Egyptian, being among those of the Atlanteans who came into Egypt; coming as the children of the law of One to make a preparation for the preservation of the tenets and truths that had been handed down by the teachers that in due season came within the golden and the bright lights that made for the interpretations of those things dealing with the relationships of man to the Creative Forces, and how in the applying of their dealings with their fellow creatures might be found that within the experience of the soul as to its OWN relationships to its Creator!
• 1182-1 these brought to the entity a study also of the Persians' experiences.
• 27. Hence those things that pertain to religion as to its FOUNDATION and its correlating with the arts of other nations, the various experiences, become as an interesting factor in the entity's activities in the present.
• 28. Hence astrology, numerology, Sanskrit, the findings of those that delve into the mysteries of nature in ALL its forms become as a portion of the entity's experience.
• 29. As to the development, this remained rather of the secular nature, yet those very experiences applied in the present may make for a step forward in knowing that all power that manifests in a material world arises from one source and is the expression of a Creative Energy. And those that usurp authority or those that turn same into that of self-indulgence or aggrandizement do so to their OWN undoing.
• 1193-1 42. The ENTITY came into the experience in Egypt but was of the Atlantean peoples, and interpreted in the Temple Beautiful those beauties of the temples in Poseidia; for from there we find those great lights - opaline lights, as it were - about the entity. And these, as we find, would be those stones that to others may bring as mystery yet the fire opal would be of the stones that should be about the entity; for the holding of that fire, that vigor, that UNDERSTANDING that makes for purification, even though the fires of the flesh must be BURNED OUT that the glory of self may be made manifest in being a channel for the glory of the living truths to be known and experienced among others.
• First the preparation of the body in an athletic manner, that the rhythm of the body, the rhythm of the soul may be expressed in those ways and manners that there may come - to the experience of those for whom the entity may interpret this or that portion of man's activity in the earth the TRUE understanding!
• Which would include all FORMS of dance but INTERPRETATIONS that not arouse the BODILY forces, but the SPIRITUAL rhythm.
• 1234-1 9. In the one before this we find in that land known as the Peruvian. In this land, the entity among the Ooms [Aymaras]. In this experience the entity a leader, a guide, a ruler. In this land may the entity in the present experience gain fame, fortune and power, but used in an IMPROPER manner to the DETRIMENT will it become to the entity in every respect.
• These may be turned into channels that may become MATERIALLY beneficial. Used properly, they may be for the DEVELOPMENT in EVERY sense. Especially in the land as given, in Peru, or in the west countries of this South American land, will the entity SUCCEED in MATERIAL things the best; especially near Luzon.
• 1258-1 There are indications also of archaeological research. And those things that have to do with the definite trends that were made in the various stages of man's experience or indwellings in the earth become of great interest. The solving of problems that pertain to such. Hieroglyphics, those things as pertain to emblems, those things that have been considered a mystery; whether in a chemical compound as the alchemist or whether in words that have made and do make for the setting of vibrations in the experience of individuals as may use them in forms of an activity, whether for producing definite results or effects in chemical changes of the baser natures or whether in those things as make for form or manner.
• Thus the spiritual activity, thus those forces that make for rote, interest in the alchemist formulas, arose from those experiences.
• 26. The name then, as the Atlantean, was Am-eel; as the aid in the Temple Worship, Gu-el-am-ee.
• 1476-1 35. But if the entity finds within self that answer to what has been said here as to its ideal, and as to its attainment in same, then:
• 36. BOLDLY know that ye have arrived at that experience where, with the consciousness of giving self in such ways and manners, thy service may bring hope and help and the longings for constructive experiences.
• 37. And ye will find that as ye give, ye receive; as ye serve, ye become better and better understood, better and better known.
• 38. But know, all must be - mentally, spiritually - CONSTRUCTIVE; so that the reactions in the physical experiences of all may be for that hopefulness which is ever the cry of the soul in its search for its relationships to its Maker.
• 1715-3 13. As is seen, the entity has been the builder in the mental and in the material. In keeping first self in the path of that criterion as has been set and chosen as of old, may the entity attain and gain through self's own development.
• 1716-1 sought by the entity for the counsel in the storehouse of knowledge. Seek and ye shall find, has been the greatest mystery to the entity of many of the passing words that come as proverbs; yet the conditions as have been builded have been through the seeking of understanding, the seeking of knowledge. In the seeking has the entity gained.
• gains for that understanding, that knowledge, as comes through the concentration, and consecration of self to a purpose, to an ideal; to LEAVE those that may do as they choose, but "for me and my house, we will serve the LIVING God", in this has the entity builded, and in the understanding of the ALLNESS OF conditions, or the oneness of purpose in the Creative Forces, will the entity gain that as is the last developing rung in this experience.
• [Contrary] been given by others that the entity has studied in the arithmetic, or in the influences as come FROM numbers; yet symbols and mystic forces mean much. Rather will the entity gain more by the understanding of that as comes through the MENTAL, than through that as is gained in numbers, or in the cabalistic, arithmetic influence - for these come rather as builded influences, and the SPIRIT of numbers is as ONE, from which each and every other ratio MUST be measured; for in the BEGINNING was the Word, and the Word WAS God.
• - for being blinded to the light, only those that chose to make themselves one with the whole, are given the introspective influence in their material phases.
• The entity in the first portion of the experience known as Isu-Ui. In the latter portion, known as Aarura. In the present we find much of that as is of the mystic influence, and of the occult forces, finds for the entity that most of interest. As has been seen from other experiences, and in this as experienced here, those of the MENTAL - or the occult - are to be developed; those of the mystic are to be studied and experienced, rather than spoken of or set out as ensamples; for it is of each to gain, attain, an understanding through which each experience must pass.
• 1735-2 Keep self attuned to that love force, even as in the occult influences. Beware of those that are of the forces as make through chance, or of a force that through certain influences, by oft being done, as of cabalistic or paleozoistic influences. These to the entity would become too near that as would bring for self the wonderments that bring destructive influence.
• 10. In the one before this we find in the Atlantean period, when at that time before the first of the destructive forces, and the usages of the influences as were gathered by the peoples to the lands about, when the entity builded those that made for the carrying of those machines of destruction that sailed both through the air and under the water, did the entity carry on in this period - and the entity gained through this experience, gaining in that given and in the attempt to influence the PEOPLES, the ENTITIES OF the period, to use - rather than abuse; for many climes, many lands, sought for the INFLUENCE, for the counsel, of the entity Smla, that their lands might be blessed.
• 1737-1 13. In the abilities, and the warnings - these may be taken and applied, and used, knowing that there IS the relationship in this experience that may bring an inner knowledge of the relations to the elemental or creative forces; also of the expansion of individuals' abilities. Apply same! We are through for the present.
• 1770-2 does the sounding of that as was the call from the station of the third position in the Temple Beautiful over which the entity, as Omuna, presided - sound within self, - O-oooo-ah-m-mmm-u-uuu-r-rrr-n--nn. [See 2072-10, Par. 24-A on 7/22/42 giving the sounds as "Ah---aum, see?"] These as they may be sounded within; not just the vocal box of the physical but as they rise along the centers from the bodily forces to unite the activities, - the entity may bring greater harmony within the experience, as it did to many through the activities in that material sojourn.
