A.R.E. Meeting for 8/13/18


Cindi led a group of seven souls, eager for enlightenment, that attended this week’s meeting. It began when Cindi mentioned a book on near death experiences she was reading and a woman was asked about the golden light, and the response was that it was the breath of God. Cindi also mentioned that this month’s ARE topic had to do with “awareness” and passed along a few notes to the group. The wording of awareness seemed to correspond with Cayce’s definition of Christ Consciousness. Here is the reading quote:

Q-18. Should the Christ Consciousness be described as the awareness within each soul, imprinted in pattern on the mind and waiting to be awakened by the will, of the soul’s oneness with God?
A-18. Correct. That’s the idea exactly! [5749-14]

Sylvia had a nice Catholic prayer that she shared with the group.

We began reading in the Experiments book on page 64.  The first experiment, which is an option, is:
Use as an affirmation for the day (not for meditation but in waking life events) “I am a god.” Be sensitive to the creative potential and the responsibility which this entails.

Reading a little further, the other optional experiment is:
Work with applying the three dietary laws described above in the way you feed your mind.

The three dietary laws are on page 65. Summarized, they are:
  1. Certain things in and of themselves are toxic to the body and should be avoided.
  2. Certain things are to be avoided in combination with other things.
  3. A balanced diet involving a variety of food is necessary.
There was a discussion on whether Facebook was beneficial to individuals and society. The ARE happens to have a presence on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/edgarcayce/.

At the end there was a discussion of Pope Francis’ recent decree that teachings of the Catholic Church throughout history about capital punishment were wrong. Then there is Genesis 9:6: “Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image.

Blessings,
Greg
