A.R.E. Meeting for 2/24/20


The swirling waves of winds of the afternoon let, and it was a pleasant cold evening when five truth seeking souls came together at Ruth Holley Library. In opening the meeting, Cindi read a short 1/2 page article from an archaeology magazine describing cave paintings preserved 44 thousand years by coatings of uranium among others, as time protectively covered over them. An unusually high entrance to the cave also provided some protection. Most unexpected is the quality of the painting demonstrating that 44 thousand years ago all the principles of art were developed and known. Cave walls displayed part animal,  part human figures, some winged, and a spiritual essence.  Group members answered the question of how they saw this discovery. Was the artist painting spiritual language with the subjects shown, something else, or possibility the reality of man and animals in those years as mythology, and Cayce described, so unbelievably for the masses of people today?

Dreams were discussed and potential messages and meanings were sought.

Cindi also lead an excellent guided meditation on love, in three aspects: Loving GOD, others, and self as written in a Mark Thurston book.

We finished reading from the Edgar Cayce Primer the final four of Herb Puryear's seven points on meditation;  the Physiology, Preparation for Meditation, the Pattern and the Power, and finally, The Promises of Meditation.

#4. In physiology, physical, mental, spiritual, and emotions challenge one to bring these as well as other elements (such as food, sounds, odors) that could work against achieving a oneness of body and mind, allowing the points of the chakras to contact the endocrine glands to stream spirit thru the mental into physical. Or, from Infinite to finite.
#5. Preparation is an ongoing, continuous activity, of caring, nurturing, and nourishing the body, energy raising positive thinking to nourish our minds, and willingness to allow meditation to effect our entire lives. The Readings recommend a prayer of protection prior to each meditation experience. 
#6. The Pattern and the Power - when we select love as our Ideal, the pattern within is selected and awakened and the CHRIST power flows through us.   
#7. The Promises of Meditation - Meditation is a way to personalize the promises of our Bibles and to claim these promises personally for ourselves.  He is there whenever we call upon him.

Remembering the purpose of meditation is to love GOD, we chose to do the above meditation for our daily experiment.
In loving service,

Sylvia
